VMware Cloud Foundation 3.x Administrator — Question 12

A vSphere administrator cannot mount an NFS datastore.
Which three actions can be performed to troubleshoot the issue? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Verify that the CHAP authentication settings are correct.
• B. Run esxcli storage nfs list and ensure that the NFS filesystem is etx44 or reiserFS.
• C. Run the nc ""z array-IP 2049 command in the ESXi Shell to see whether the ESHi host can reach the NFS server nfsd TCP/UDP port (default 2049) on the storage array.
• D. Ensure that the ESXi host can vmkping the NFS server address.
• E. Ensure that the access on the NFS server is set to Anonymous user, Root Access (no_root_squash), and Read/Write.

Correct answer: C, D, E

Explanation

The correct answer includes steps that directly check network connectivity and access to the NFS server, which are critical for mounting the datastore. Options A and B are not relevant because CHAP authentication is not applicable for NFS, and the filesystem types mentioned are not the primary concern when troubleshooting mounting issues.
