VMware NSX-T Data Center for Operators — Question 64

A cloud administrator is tasked with choosing a correct Elastic DRS policy. The existing VMware Cloud on AWS environment consists of a single cluster with two ESXi hosts.

The following guidelines regarding the expected performance must be met:

• The cluster should be able to scale automatically when additional resources are required.
• Application performance should NOT be affected when the cluster scaling operation is being performed.

Which Elastic DRS policy should the cloud administrator select?

Answer options

• A. Optimize for Best Performance
• B. Elastic DRS Baseline
• C. Optimize for Lowest Cost
• D. Optimize for Rapid Scale-Out

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as the 'Optimize for Best Performance' policy ensures that application performance remains unaffected during scaling operations. The other options do not prioritize performance during scaling, which is essential based on the requirements outlined.
