VMware Carbon Black Cloud Enterprise EDR Specialist — Question 69

A vSAN administrator receives a request from the application team to create a virtual machine on a vSAN datastore. The requirements state that the virtual machine needs to be available quickly after a failure occurs. The solution must minimize administrative effort.
Which vSphere feature should the vSAN administrator implement?

Answer options

• A. vSphere Distributed Services Engine
• B. vSphere High Availability
• C. vSphere Fault Tolerance
• D. vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is vSphere High Availability (HA) because it automatically restarts virtual machines on other hosts in the cluster in case of a host failure, ensuring quick recovery. vSphere Fault Tolerance provides continuous availability but is more complex and does not minimize administrative effort. The other options, like the vSphere Distributed Services Engine and vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler, do not specifically address rapid VM recovery after a failure.
