VMware Cloud Director Specialist (2023) — Question 36

An administrator wants to implement password rotation as a security measure in VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF).
Which statement regarding password rotation in VCF is true?

Answer options

• A. The parameters of password rotation can be manually changed to customize the generated passwords.
• B. To retrieve passwords for an entity in VCF, run the lookup_passwords command, but user credentials do not need to be entered.
• C. Scheduled password rotation is available for ESXi Hosts, and it runs every 30 days by default.
• D. Password rotation generates randomized passwords with a minimum length of 20 characters, at least one uppercase letter, one number, and one special character.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because VMware Cloud Foundation's password rotation feature is designed to create secure passwords that meet specific complexity requirements. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they either misstate the functionality of password rotation or do not accurately reflect the configuration and requirements set by VCF.
