VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Specialist — Question 36

An organization wants to configure a new storage policy based on the following requirements:
✑ Failures to tolerate = FTT 1/RAID-5 (Erasure Coding)
✑ Number of disk stripes per object = 8
✑ IOPS limit for object = 0
✑ Object Space Reservation = Thin provisioning
✑ Flash read cache reservation = 0%
✑ Disable object checksum = No
✑ Force provisioning = No
The administrator creates the policy using storage policy based management and assigns it to a 100GB virtual machine on a 4-node vSAN cluster to test the results of the new storage policy.
How many components will be created per host for the storage objects of the virtual machine on the vSAN datastore?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as the FTT of 1 indicates that one additional copy of the data will be created for redundancy, and with a RAID-5 configuration, the data will be striped across the available disks. This results in 2 components being created per host for the storage objects of the virtual machine. The other options do not accurately reflect the required components based on the specified storage policy criteria.
