VMware Data Center Virtualization Fundamentals — Question 12

A company has recently incurred financial loss, due to a crashed server that resulted in the loss of critical data.
Which two vSphere 6.x features should this company implement to protect against losing critical data due to physical server failure? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Virtual Volumes
• B. Enhanced vMotion Capability
• C. High Availability
• D. Fault Tolerance

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

High Availability (HA) ensures that virtual machines are restarted on other operational hosts in the event of a server failure, minimizing downtime. Fault Tolerance (FT) provides continuous availability by creating a live shadow instance of a virtual machine that can take over immediately if the primary fails. Virtual Volumes and Enhanced vMotion Capability do not specifically address the immediate recovery from physical server failures.
