VMware Carbon Black Cloud Endpoint Standard Specialist — Question 69

A newly deployed vSAN cluster runs vSAN 7.0, and the vSAN cluster needs an integration with a third-party software solution. The software solution provides full app-level redundancy, and it runs on the vSAN Data Persistence platform.
The administrator configures vSAN Direct Configuration to integrate the third-party storage with vSAN and now needs to configure a storage policy to make sure the vSAN Direct storage is used by the vSAN Data Persistence platform third-party software solution.
Which type of storage policy configuration should the administrator use?

Answer options

• A. A storage policy with tag or capability-based rules for vSAN Direct
• B. A storage policy with capability-based rules for third-party storage
• C. A vSAN shared nothing policy with no data redundancy (FTT=0)
• D. A vSAN storage policy with one failure to tolerate (FTT=1)

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because a storage policy with tag or capability-based rules specifically for vSAN Direct ensures that the storage is utilized properly in conjunction with the vSAN Data Persistence platform. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not specifically address the requirement to configure the policy for vSAN Direct storage, which is crucial for the integration with the third-party software.
