VMware NSX-T Advanced Deployment (VCAP-NV Deploy) — Question 46

An architect is designing a private cloud solution for an organization and has been given the following information:
✑ The organization already has a VMware Workspace ONE Access 3.3.2 cluster with external MSSQL server for their existing virtualized desktop environment.
✑ Due to budget constraints, wherever possible, the architect needs to reuse the existing environment.
What should the architect recommend as an authentication solution for the private cloud?
Note: VMware Identity Manager has been renamed as VMware Workspace ONE Access.

Answer options

• A. The existing instance can be reused as authentication provider for the private cloud but maintained outside of vRealize Lifecycle Manager.
• B. Import the existing Workspace ONE Access cluster in vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager but do not reuse it for the authentication purposes.
• C. Deploy a new instance of Workspace ONE Access cluster using vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager and use it for authentication.
• D. Import the existing Workspace ONE Access cluster in vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager and reuse it for the authentication purposes.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because it allows the existing Workspace ONE Access cluster to be integrated into the management system while avoiding its reuse for authentication, which aligns with budget constraints. Options A and D incorrectly suggest reusing the existing cluster for authentication, which is not in line with the requirements, while option C proposes creating a new instance, which does not leverage the existing resources effectively.
