VMware NSX-T Data Center for Operators — Question 56

A cloud administrator is managing a VMware Cloud on AWS environment. Currently, there is a single cluster consisting of four i3.metal hosts. Due to an increased demand, cluster capacity has to be expanded by 60 cores and 640 GB of memory.
What should the administrator do to meet the demand?

Answer options

• A. Add 16 CPU cores to the existing hosts.
• B. Add three c4.metal hosts to the cluster.
• C. Add two i3.metal hosts to the cluster.
• D. Add one i3en.metal host to the cluster.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because adding two i3.metal hosts provides a total of 64 CPU cores and 512 GB of RAM, meeting the required increase. Option A would not meet the demand since it only adds 16 cores. Option B does not provide the necessary memory increase, and option D adds only one host, which is insufficient to meet the core and memory requirements.
