VMware vSphere 6 Beta Foundations — Question 5

In a vSAN stretched cluster with Primary level to tolerate set to 1 and Secondary level of failure to tolerate set to 2, what is the maximum amount of space that a
100GB virtual disk could consume without any other policy rules set?

Answer options

• A. 200GB
• B. 100GB
• C. 400GB
• D. 600GB

Correct answer: C

Explanation

In a vSAN stretched cluster, the Primary level of 1 means one copy is stored at the primary site, while the Secondary level of 2 means there are two additional copies at the secondary site. Therefore, the total space required is 1 copy (100GB) at the primary site plus 3 copies (100GB each) at the secondary site, resulting in 400GB total. The other options do not account for the necessary redundancy in the configuration.
