VMware App Volumes 4 Specialist — Question 42

A vSAN administrator wants to implement end-to-end prioritization of vSAN traffic across the network in a shared network infrastructure that is using vSphere
Distributed Switches (VDS).
Which two can help achieve this objective? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Configure CoS or DSCP with high priority tag at the VDS and equivalent in the physical network.
• B. Enable jumbo frames for vSAN VMkernel ports and configure LACP for optimal load balancing.
• C. Enable Network I/O Control and allocate higher shares for vSAN traffic.
• D. Configure multiple vSAN VMkernel interfaces to load balance across multiple uplinks.
• E. Enable network resource pool at the VDS level to prioritize vSAN traffic.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C because enabling jumbo frames and LACP optimizes traffic flow and load balancing for vSAN, while Network I/O Control allows for prioritization of vSAN traffic by allocating higher shares. Options A, D, and E do not directly address end-to-end prioritization of vSAN traffic in the same effective manner as B and C.
