VMware App Volumes Specialist (2021) — Question 80

While a vSAN administrator is deploying new VMs on a vSAN stretched cluster, the secondary site fails. The vSAN displays the following warning while trying to deploy those VMs:

'Datastore does not match current VM policy'.

Which step should be performed to provision the new VMs?

Answer options

• A. Provision VMs with 'Force Provisioning' rule enabled.
• B. Provision VMs with the 'Number of disk stripes per object' set to 2.
• C. Provision VMs with the 'Object space reservation' set to 50% reservation.
• D. Provision VMs with a vSAN Default Storage Policy.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as enabling 'Force Provisioning' allows the VMs to be deployed despite the warning of datastore mismatch. Options B and C modify storage policies that do not address the mismatch issue, while option D may not align with the requirements during a site failure.
