VMware Carbon Black Cloud Enterprise EDR Specialist — Question 42

A vSAN administrator needs to update vSAN from version 7.0.2 to version 8.0.
Which is the correct order to perform the update?

Answer options

• A. vSphere -> vCenter -> vSAN on-disk format
• B. vSphere -> vSAN on-disk format -> vCenter
• C. vCenter -> vSphere -> vSAN on-disk format
• D. vSAN on-disk format -> vSphere -> vCenter

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct sequence starts with updating vCenter, followed by vSphere, and finally updating the vSAN on-disk format. This order is essential because vCenter must be compatible with the updated vSphere version before the vSAN format can be modified. The other options do not maintain this necessary compatibility and could lead to issues during the upgrade process.
