VMware vRealize Operations Manager Advanced — Question 23

A company has been successfully deploying virtual machines to its data center in Boston for over a year. The architect has added the endpoint in vRealize
Automation and been tasked with consuming the resources in a new data center in Las Vegas.
With minimal change to the catalog design, which two design options could the architect consider in order to enable users to begin deploying machines to both data centers? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Configure the locations.xml file on the IaaS Manager servers to contain a location for Las Vegas. Select "˜Display Location on Request' within your existing blueprints.
• B. Create a new reservation utilizing compute resources in Las Vegas. Create a new reservation policy and assign it to the new reservation.
• C. Configure the locations.xml file on the IaaS Web servers to contain a location for Las Vegas. Select "˜Display location on request' within your existing blueprints.
• D. Copy your existing blueprints and set the reservation policy to the new reservation policy that is set on the Las Vegas reservation.
• E. Create a new reservation utilizing compute resources in Las Vegas. Set the reservation policy to the same as the Boston reservation.

Correct answer: B, E

Explanation

Option B is correct as creating a new reservation with specific resources in Las Vegas alongside a new reservation policy allows for efficient management and deployment. Option E, while also valid, focuses on the same policy as Boston which may not utilize Las Vegas resources effectively. Options A, C, and D either involve unnecessary configurations or duplications that do not align with minimal changes to the catalog design.
