VMware vSphere 8.x Advanced Design (VCAP-DCV Design) — Question 67

A company has a requirement that all production applications must have a maximum tolerable downtime (MTD) of one hour per month.
Which statement would be included in the physical design to support this requirement?

Answer options

• A. vSphere HA will be enabled on all clusters.
• B. vSphere HA Host Failure Response will be set to Restart VMs.
• C. vSphere Fault Tolerance (FT) will not be enabled for the production applications.
• D. Server hardware has already been purchased for the production applications.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer, B, indicates that in the event of a host failure, the VMs will be automatically restarted, which helps to minimize downtime. Option A, while beneficial, does not specify the action taken during a failure. Option C contradicts the requirement for minimizing downtime, and option D does not address the downtime concerns directly.
