VMware vSphere 8.x Advanced Design (VCAP-DCV Design) — Question 88

What is an example of an availability design quality?

Answer options

• A. A vSphere cluster is configured to support an N + 1 level of redundancy.
• B. A vSphere cluster is configured to support a maximum tolerated downtime of one hour.
• C. A vSphere cluster is configured to stage patches on ESXi hosts before applying them.
• D. A vSphere cluster is configured to use a dedicated network adapter for vMotion traffic.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because supporting an N + 1 level of redundancy ensures that there is always an additional resource available to take over in case of failure, which directly enhances availability. Options B, C, and D focus on downtime tolerance, patch management, and network configuration, which are important but do not primarily address the aspect of redundancy for availability.
