VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Specialist — Question 28

A vSAN administrator is tasked to perform an upgrade of a vSAN cluster from 7.0 to 7.0 U2, including firmware and drivers for its hardware. The vSAN administrator already created an image using vSphere Lifecycle Manager (vLCM).
Prior to selecting Start Remediation, which step should be taken to upgrade the complete vSAN cluster as a single task?

Answer options

• A. Select Remediate All through vLCM to upgrade all hosts in the cluster.
• B. Manually remediate one host at a time in the vSAN cluster.
• C. Place all hosts in the vSAN cluster into Maintenance Mode.
• D. Stage the upgrade of the vSAN cluster through vLCM.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because selecting 'Remediate All' allows the vSAN administrator to upgrade all hosts simultaneously, ensuring a coordinated upgrade process. Option B is incorrect as manually remediating hosts one by one is not efficient for a complete upgrade. Option C is also incorrect since placing hosts in Maintenance Mode is not necessary for this task. Option D, while it involves staging, does not directly initiate the upgrade of the cluster as a single task.
