VMware NSX-T Data Center Advanced (VCAP-NV Design) — Question 24

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:
✑ Customer is concerned with NSX Manager availability.
✑ 3 cabinets/racks are available in the data center.

No integration with 3 -
✑ party solution is required.
✑ There is no budget for physical equipment acquisition.
✑ The 3 cabinets/racks do not share the same L2 domain.
Which three selections should the architect include in their design to address the customer's concern with NSX Manager availability? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Deploy 2 cold standby NSX Manager appliances in rack 2/3.
• B. Use separate IP per NSX Manager appliance per rack.
• C. Use another NSX Manager IP in case an appliance fails.
• D. Deploy a single active NSX Manager appliance in rack 1.
• E. Deploy an NSX Manager Appliance per rack and cluster them.
• F. Use a physical/internal load-balancer with the cluster.

Correct answer: A, D, E

Explanation

The correct answers, A, D, and E, ensure NSX Manager availability by providing redundancy and distribution across racks. Deploying cold standby appliances (A) and a single active appliance (D) in different locations enhances fault tolerance, while clustering NSX Manager appliances (E) allows for load distribution and failover capabilities. Options B, C, and F do not adequately address the primary concern of availability given the constraints of the environment.
