VMware NSX-T Advanced Deployment (VCAP-NV Deploy) — Question 40

A company has recently completed an audit and has found that there are many virtual machines in their production environment which no longer appear to be in use. To prevent this from happening in future, the company is deploying vRealize Automation and would like all provisioned VMs to meet following requirements:
✑ VMs to have a default lease of 90 days and no more than 365 days
✑ Lease policy can be overridden on case by case basis
✑ Upon initial lease expiry, the VM should be kept for 10 days after which they will be destroyed
Which policy design will meet the technical requirements?

Answer options

• A. Create a lease policy with the organization scope, setting 90 days lease, 365 total lease and grace period to 10 and a hard enforcement
• B. Create a lease policy with the organization scope, setting 90 days lease, 365 total lease and grace period to 10 and a soft enforcement
• C. Create a lease policy with the project scope, setting 90 days lease, 365 total lease and grace period to 10 and a soft enforcement
• D. Create a lease policy with the project scope, setting 90 days lease, 365 total lease and grace period to 10 and a hard enforcement

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Option C is correct because it uses the project scope, allowing for more granular control over VM leases while meeting the specified lease duration and grace period. Options A and B use the organization scope, which does not align with the requirement for project-based management. Option D applies hard enforcement, which does not allow for case-by-case overrides, contradicting one of the key requirements.
