VMware Carbon Black Cloud Enterprise EDR Specialist — Question 8

An administrator wants to assign a storage policy to a workload on a two-node vSAN OSA cluster consisting of three disk groups each with nested fault domains. The virtual machine must be protected against a disk or disk group failure.
Which two storage policies meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. RAID-5/FTT 2
• B. RAID-1/FTT 3
• C. RAID-6/FTT 2
• D. RAID-5/FTT 1
• E. RAID-1/FTT 1

Correct answer: D, E

Explanation

The correct answers, RAID-5/FTT 1 (D) and RAID-1/FTT 1 (E), provide the necessary level of protection for a virtual machine against a single disk or disk group failure in a two-node cluster. The other options either provide insufficient fault tolerance or require more than one failure to be tolerated, which does not meet the specified requirements.
