VMware App Volumes Specialist (2021) — Question 1

In a vSAN stretched cluster, which value must be set in the vSAN policy if there is no requirement for data mirroring across sites?

Answer options

• A. SFTT = 0
• B. SFTT = 1
• C. PFTT = 1
• D. PFTT = 0

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as setting PFTT (Primary Failures to Tolerate) to 0 indicates that no replicas are required at another site. Options A and B refer to SFTT (Secondary Failures to Tolerate), which is not relevant when there's no need for data mirroring. Option C, PFTT = 1, implies that at least one replica is required, which contradicts the requirement stated in the question.
