VMware App Volumes (VCP-AM 2019) — Question 51

A storage policy has these rules:
✑ Site disaster tolerance: None - standard cluster
✑ Failures To Tolerance: 2 failures - RAID-1 (Mirroring)
What is the minimum number of hosts required to comply with this storage policy?

Answer options

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 5
• D. 6

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C. RAID-1 requires at least two hosts to provide mirroring for the data, and since the policy allows for two failures, you need at least five hosts in total to ensure that data can be recovered even if two hosts fail. Options A, B, and D do not meet the minimum host requirement set by the policy.
