VMware NSX-T Advanced Deployment (VCAP-NV Deploy) — Question 34

An architect has been engaged to update an operations management solution design to include VMware vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager (vRSLCM) so that the support team can reduce the complexity of environment and content management activities. The customer has provided the following information with regards to the existing environment:
There are four environments for business applications:
✑ Development
✑ Staging
✑ Production
✑ DR
-The solution consists of two well-connected data centers (with low latency, high bandwidth links).
-All Production workloads and management tooling are deployed to Data Center 1 (DC1).
-All Staging, Development and DR workloads run in Data Center 2 (DC2).
-Each physical data center has one vCenter Server and a sufficient number of hosts for workload and management.
-There are two separate VMware vRealize Operations (vROps) clusters, one in each data center location.
-Currently all content is developed in the DC2 vROps cluster before being manually imported into the DC1 vROps cluster.
Which two design decisions should the architect include in the solution? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. An environment will be created within vRSLCM across both physical data centers to logically group management components.
• B. An environment will be created within vRSLCM for each physical environment to logically separate management components.
• C. A single vRSLCM appliance will be deployed into each physical datacenter.
• D. An environment will be created within vRSLCM for each physical data center to logically separate management components.
• E. A single vRSLCM appliance will be deployed into DC1.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

The correct choices are A and C. Option A is appropriate as it allows for a unified management approach across both data centers, simplifying operations. Option C is also correct as deploying a vRSLCM appliance in each data center ensures redundancy and localized management capabilities. The other options either complicate the management by creating unnecessary separations or do not utilize the advantages of having multiple appliances.
