VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Specialist — Question 43

A vSAN administrator was presented with 30 additional vSAN ReadyNodes to add to an existing vSAN cluster. There is only one administrator to complete this task.
What is the fastest approach?

Answer options

• A. Use a Host Profile that was extracted from an existing host.
• B. Clone the ESXi boot partition to all new hosts, since the hardware is identical.
• C. Run vim-cmd to capture, and apply the configuration from an existing host.
• D. Launch Quickstart to Add Hosts to a vSAN Cluster

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The fastest method to add multiple hosts to a vSAN cluster is to use Quickstart, as it streamlines the process and reduces manual configuration steps. The other options, while valid, involve more time-consuming procedures such as profile extraction or cloning, which are not as efficient for adding multiple nodes at once.
