VMware Cloud on AWS Specialist — Question 52

To assist with seasonal workload demands over the next two months, a group of interns are hired to assist with day 2 virtual machine operations in VMware Cloud on AWS. Which method should be used for creating these temporary user accounts and assigning the appropriate permissions to them?

Answer options

• A. Log into vCenter in VMware Cloud on AWS with the CloudAdmin account. Create the required number of user accounts in the vmc.local SSO domain and assign the appropriate roles to the accounts.
• B. Log into on-premises VMware vCenter. Create the required number of user accounts in the vsphere. local SSO domain and assign the appropriate roles to the accounts. Ensure that Hybrid Linked Mode is enabled to allow account propagation to the VMware Cloud on AWS SSO domain.
• C. Create the required user accounts within Active Directory and assign them to the required group. With Hybrid Linked Mode enabled, assign the correct role in VMware Cloud on AWS to the Active Directory group that contains the user accounts.
• D. Log into vCenter in VMware Cloud on AWS with the CloudAdmin account. Create the required number of user accounts in the vsphere. local SSO domain and assign the appropriate roles to the accounts in Active Directory.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because it specifies creating user accounts directly in the vmc.local SSO domain, which is the appropriate method for VMware Cloud on AWS. Option B is incorrect as it involves using the vsphere.local SSO domain, which is not applicable here. Option C is wrong since it relies on Active Directory without direct creation in the VMware Cloud on AWS environment. Option D also incorrectly uses the vsphere.local SSO domain instead of vmc.local.
