VMware vSAN Administrator (2025) — Question 14

An architect is designing for a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Instance. The following requirements and constraints were documented.
The management domain cluster utilizes vSAN stretched as the principal storage.
Company policy states that compute and storage capacity utilization must not exceed 90% at all times.
Which three statements should the architect consider when designing the solution to satisfy the requirements? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Use a heterogenous cluster configuration.
• B. Size and monitor the cluster for a maximum compute peak utilization of < 45%.
• C. Size and monitor the cluster for a maximum storage utilization of 90%.
• D. Size and monitor the cluster for a maximum compute peak utilization of < 90%.
• E. Size and monitor the cluster for a maximum storage utilization of 40%.
• F. Use a homogenous cluster configuration.

Correct answer: B, C, F

Explanation

Option B is correct because keeping the compute peak utilization below 45% ensures that there is enough headroom to meet the policy requirements. Option C is also correct as it aligns with the policy of not exceeding 90% storage utilization. Option F is correct since a homogeneous cluster configuration simplifies management and performance. The other options either exceed the limits set by company policy or provide inefficient configurations.
