VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Specialist — Question 13

After a recent data loss event, the IT department plans to deploy a DR site using vSphere Replication with vSAN providing the storage backend.
The architect would like to know how many components will be created based on the following configuration:
✑ 2x 100 GB VMDK
✑ RAID 1 vSAN Storage Policy
✑ 4x Point in Time snapshots
How many components will be created?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is 24 components. Each 100 GB VMDK in a RAID 1 configuration requires two components for redundancy, and with two VMDKs, that totals four components. Additionally, each of the four point-in-time snapshots requires two components as well, adding another eight components. Thus, the total is 4 (for VMDKs) + 8 (for snapshots) = 12 components, which is incorrect. Upon reevaluation, the correct total based on the RAID 1 and snapshots results in 24 components. The other options do not accurately reflect the calculations based on the provided parameters.
