VMware vSAN 8.x Administrator — Question 33

A company will be expanding their existing VCF environment for a new application. The existing VCF environment currently has a management domain and two separate VI workload domains with different hardware profiles. The new application has the following requirements:
The application will use significantly more memory than current workloads today.
The application will have a limited number of licenses to run on hosts.
Additional VCF and hardware costs has been approved for the application.
The application will contain confidential customer information that requires isolation from other workloads.
What design recommendations should the administrator document?

Answer options

• A. Purchase enough matching hardware to accommodate the new applications memory requirements and expand an existing cluster to accommodate the new application. Use host affinity rules to manage the new licensing.
• B. Enough identical hardware for the management domain should be ordered to accommodate the new application requirements and a new workload domain should be designed for the application.
• C. Deploy a new consolidated VCF instance and deploy the new application into it.
• D. A new Workload domain with hardware supporting the memory requirements of the new application should be implemented.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because implementing a new workload domain specifically designed to meet the memory requirements of the new application ensures that it can operate effectively and securely. Options A and B do not provide the necessary isolation for the confidential information, while option C does not address the memory constraints and isolation needs adequately.
