VMware App Volumes Specialist (2021) — Question 56

An administrator is setting up vSAN file services on a vSAN cluster but is unable to join the vSAN File Services to the domain.

Which two possible reasons could explain this failure? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. A read-only domain controller was being used.
• B. The administrator did not pre-create a dedicated organizational unit in Active Directory.
• C. The administrator wanted to register the file services to a sub-domain.
• D. The administrator was using IP addresses from an IP pool.
• E. The administrator was using pre-created computer objects for the file services in the Active Directory.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

Option A is correct because using a read-only domain controller can prevent proper domain join operations. Option C is also correct as attempting to register the file services to a sub-domain may lead to issues if not properly configured. The other options do not directly cause the failure to join the domain.
