VMware vSAN 8.x Administrator — Question 10

A VMware Cloud Foundation multi-AZ (Availability Zone) design mandates that:
All availability zones must operate independently of each other.
The availability SLA must adhere to no less than 99.9%.
What would be the three design decisions that would help satisfy those requirements? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Make sure the recovery VLAN for the infrastructure management components has access to both AZ(s)
• B. Choose two distant AZ(s) and consider each AZ the DR for the other
• C. Make sure all configuration backups are replicated between the selected AZ(s)
• D. Configure Array Based Replication between the selected AZ(s) for the management domain
• E. Choose two close proximity AZ(s) and configure a stretched management workload domain
• F. Configure a non-routable separate recovery VLAN for the infrastructure management components within each AZ

Correct answer: B, C, D

Explanation

The correct choices, B, C, and D, contribute to ensuring that each availability zone operates independently while maintaining high availability. Option B creates a robust disaster recovery strategy, C ensures configuration continuity across zones, and D provides replication for management data. Options A, E, and F either compromise independence, offer inadequate geographic separation, or do not meet the availability requirements effectively.
