VMware vSphere 6 Foundations (VCP6-DCV) — Question 3

What is true regarding datastores on ESXi 6.x?

Answer options

• A. NFS 4.1 datastore does not support Fault Tolerance (FT)
• B. Both VMFS3 and VMFS5 datastores can be created
• C. NFS datastore can be mounted using NFS 4.1 on one ESXi host and NFS 3.0 on another
• D. NFS 3.0 datastore does not support Fault Tolerance (FT)

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because NFS 4.1 does not provide support for Fault Tolerance (FT). Option B is incorrect as ESXi 6.x supports VMFS5 but not VMFS3 for new datastores. Option C is misleading since the NFS datastore must be consistently accessed using the same version across all hosts, and option D is also incorrect because NFS 3.0 does not support FT either.
