VMware NSX-T Data Center Advanced (VCAP-NV Design) — Question 18

An architect is helping an organization with the Logical Design of an NSX-T Data Center solution.
This information was gathered during the Assessment Phase:
✑ There isn't much budget available for a new off shore site.
✑ The new site is decentralized and no communication with the main data center is required.
✑ The design will need to cater for availability, upgrades, and failure scenarios.
✑ N+1 must be maintained at all times.
Which three selections should the architect recommend in their design? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Separate the hosts physical NICs for VSS and N-VDS.
• B. Make all pNICs part of N-VDS and VMKs will be migrated.
• C. Collapse the Management/Edge/Compute cluster.
• D. Install a minimum 4 ESXi hosts in the site.
• E. A Shared Edge/Management cluster and one for Compute.
• F. Install a minimum of 3 ESXi hosts in the site.

Correct answer: A, B, C

Explanation

The correct answers A, B, and C focus on optimizing network configurations and resource management in a decentralized environment. Option D suggests too many hosts for a site with budget constraints, while option E introduces unnecessary complexity by separating clusters when a shared approach may be more effective. Option F does not fulfill the N+1 requirement, as a minimum of 4 hosts is necessary to ensure redundancy.
