VMware vSAN 8.x Administrator — Question 58

The following requirements were identified in an architecture workshop for a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) design project utilizing vSAN for its primary storage solution.

REQ001: Application must maintain a minimum of 1,000 transactions per second (TPS) during business hours excluding disaster recovery (DR) scenarios.
REQ002: Automatic DRS and HA must be utilized.
REQ003: Planned maintenance must be executed outside of business hours.

Which test scenario should be added and performed to validate these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Trigger a Virtual Machine vMotion operation
• B. Trigger a failure of an ESXi host
• C. Trigger a vCenter Server update
• D. Trigger a vSAN disk group evacuation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because simulating a failure of an ESXi host tests the system's ability to maintain the required transactions per second (TPS) and ensures that automatic DRS and HA are functioning correctly under failure conditions. The other options do not directly test the requirements related to transaction performance or the failover capabilities of the environment.
