VMware App Volumes (VCP-AM 2019) — Question 86

A vSAN Witness has connectivity to a vSAN cluster with supported maximum latency of 500 milliseconds round-trip time (RTT).
Which vSAN cluster type is the vSAN Witness a member of?

Answer options

• A. vSAN stretched cluster with 4 nodes in each site
• B. vSAN 2-node direct connected cluster
• C. 4-node vSAN cluster using erasure coding
• D. 16-node vSAN cluster with nested fault domains

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because a vSAN 2-node direct connected cluster is designed to work with a Witness that has higher latency tolerances. The other options either exceed the supported latency or do not require a Witness at all, making them unsuitable in this scenario.
