VMware vRealize Network Insight — Question 48

An administrator configures vRealize Automation for high availability by installing an additional vRealize Automation appliance. When users try to login to vRealize
Automation, a message about an invalid license appears.
Upon further investigation, the administrator determines that the vRealize Automation appliance nodes do not correctly resolve to the short host names of the nodes in the cluster.
Which step can the administrator take to test the name resolution issue?

Answer options

• A. Update the ntp.conf file on the vRealize Automation appliance.
• B. Update the hosts file on the vRealize Automation appliance.
• C. Update the netconfig file on the vRealize Automation appliance.
• D. Update the nsswitch.conf file on the vRealize Automation appliance.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Updating the hosts file on the vRealize Automation appliance is the correct step to ensure that the short host names resolve properly within the cluster. The other options, while related to system configuration, do not directly address the name resolution issue that is causing the invalid license message.
