VMware vSphere 8.x Advanced Design (VCAP-DCV Design) — Question 71

A company has the business goal of automated, centralized, and efficient management of the data center.
Which statement would be included in the conceptual design to support this business goal?

Answer options

• A. Place the management cluster and the compute cluster in the same rack.
• B. Reduce the cost of providing IT services to the organization.
• C. Store templates and ISO files on a dedicated Virtual Machine File System (VMFS) datastore.
• D. Join all vCenter instances to a single vCenter Single Sign-On domain.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Joining all vCenter instances to a single vCenter Single Sign-On domain (option D) facilitates centralized management and authentication, which is essential for achieving the company's goal of efficient data center management. Options A and C do not directly support centralization or automation, while B, though beneficial, focuses on cost reduction rather than management efficiency.
