Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016 — Question 94

You have a Windows Server 2106 failover cluster named Cluster1 that contains four nodes named Server1, Server2, Server3, and Server4. Cluster1 hosts 40 virtual machines that are distributed evenly across the nodes.
Server1 and Server2 are located in a data center in Madrid. Server3 and Server4 are located in a data center in Barcelona.
You need to ensure that when you pause a node, the clustered virtual machines will always attempt to move automatically to another node in the same data center before attempting to move to a node in the other data center.
Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.

Answer options

• A. Run the New-ClusterFaultDomain cmdlet.
• B. Run the Add-ClusterGroup cmdlet.
• C. Configure a file share witness for each data center.
• D. Run the Set-ClusterFaultDomain cmdlet.
• E. Create an Active Directory site for each data center.
• F. Change the quorum configuration of the cluster to Node Majority.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C because adding a cluster group via the Add-ClusterGroup cmdlet allows for better management of resources, and configuring a file share witness for each data center helps in maintaining quorum and resource management during node failures. The other options do not directly address the requirement of ensuring automatic VM movement within the same data center.
