VMware Carbon Black Cloud Enterprise EDR Specialist — Question 64

Which two considerations should an architect assess when designing a HCI Mesh solution with VMware vSAN and VMware vSphere High Availability (HA)? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. A server vSAN cluster can serve its local datastore up to five client vSAN clusters.
• B. A client cluster can mount up to ten remote datastores from one or more vSAN server clusters.
• C. A minimum of three nodes are required within the client cluster for vSphere HA to work.
• D. If vSphere HA is to work with HCI Mesh, Datastore with Permanent Device Loss (PDL) must be configured to Power off and restart VMs.
• E. If vSphere HA is to work with HCI Mesh, Datastore with All Paths Down (APD) must be configured to Power off and restart VMs.

Correct answer: C, E

Explanation

Option C is correct because vSphere HA requires a minimum of three nodes in a cluster to ensure proper failover capabilities. Option E is also correct as it specifies the necessary configuration for handling All Paths Down (APD) scenarios. Options A, B, and D do not address the requirements for vSphere HA in the context of HCI Mesh.
