VMware Carbon Black Cloud Enterprise EDR Specialist — Question 11

An administrator has been tasked with upgrading existing vSAN OSA cluster hosts with a SSD cache device per host to a NVMe device (hot plug).
Which fact should guide the administrator's action?

Answer options

• A. The disk group must be deleted on each physical host in the vSAN OSA cluster to use the NVMe device.
• B. The disk group does not need to be removed before adding new cache.
• C. The host must be removed from vSAN OSA cluster before changing cache devices.
• D. The cache disk drives must have a larger capacity.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because in order to successfully replace the SSD cache with an NVMe device, the existing disk group must be deleted first. Option B is incorrect as it contradicts this requirement, option C is wrong because the host does not need to be removed from the cluster for this upgrade, and option D is not a necessary condition for upgrading to NVMe.
