VMware Workspace ONE Advanced (VCAP-DTM Design) — Question 34

An architect is designing a solution for a customer who plans to grow its VDI environment. The design must allow for scaling of the environment in incremental steps with predictable results.
Which can the architect recommend for capacity management?

Answer options

• A. Design using a pod and block architecture and verify the capacity of the configured block. Add as blocks needed.
• B. Design the environment around traditional all-flash SAN to ensure that there are no scaling issues.
• C. Design the environment using vSAN ready nodes. Add more nodes as needed.
• D. Design using servers that can accept 768GB of RAM so that there are no scaling issues.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because using a pod and block architecture allows for manageable scaling by adding blocks as needed while ensuring capacity is verified. Option B could lead to inflexibility as traditional SANs may not scale as effectively as the pod and block approach. Option C, while valid, may not offer the same level of predictability in scaling as the pod and block architecture. Option D focuses solely on RAM capacity, which doesn't directly address the incremental scaling needed for the environment.
