VMware App Volumes (VCP-AM 2019) — Question 46

What would cause a vSAN: Basic (unicast) connectivity check failure in vSAN Health Check?

Answer options

• A. One or more hosts in the cluster are unable to ping the vSAN VMkernel adapters of other hosts in the cluster.
• B. The throughput of the physical network supporting vSAN traffic is less than the recommended minimum throughput.
• C. The vSAN VMkernel adapter is shared with another service such as vMotion.
• D. vSAN is configured to use multicast to transmit data.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, highlights that if hosts cannot ping each other's vSAN VMkernel adapters, it indicates a connectivity issue. Options B and C relate to network performance and resource sharing but do not directly cause the connectivity check failure. Option D is incorrect as the question specifies a unicast scenario, while multicast would not apply here.
