The customer has provided the following business requirements to help inform the design:
The solution must support the running of up to 1,000 concurrent virtual machines across the primary and secondary data center.
The solution must support the running of up to 20 concurrent virtual machines in each distribution hub.

B. 　 Each distribution hub should be configured with a backup device.

C. 　 The wide area network has sufficient bandwidth to support centralized management.

D. 　 Each cluster will have a minimum of four hosts.

G. 　iven the information from the customer, which assumption should the architect include in the design?

57. An architect is tasked with designing a new VMware software-defined data center ( ) using VMware vSAN. The architect uses a storage assessment tool to determine the storage requirements for the new vSAN cluster. The new SDDC is going to be deployed into the existing data center and must be connected to a shared core network switch.
The architect decides to use vSAN ReadyNodes with the following configuration:
Two disk groups with:
- Write Intensive NVMe 800 GB drive for cache.
- Four 3.84 TB Mixed Use NVMe for capacity.

A. 　 The number of 10 GbE capable ports in the vSAN ReadyNode

B. 　 The use of vSAN ReadyNodes

C. 　 The existing network is 10 GbE capable

D. 　 The use of NVMe drives for cache and capacity

63.The Chief Information Security Officer ( ) for an organization is concerned about the security posture of the operating system images that are used for the provisioning of their Software-as-a-Service ( ) applications. The organization is in a growth period. The organization is opening a new data center to launch its next phase of new SaaS-based solutions.
The DevOps team currently creates encrypted virtual machine ( ) templates that are used for various operating systems and adds these to the vSphere inventory. The DevOps team already uses a published content library and has been granted a role with the ability to add and delete library items.
The following requirements have been noted:

A. 　 Clone virtual machines as VM templates to the published content library

B. 　 Create a subscribed library from the published library and synchronize Open Virtualization Format (OVF) templates on-demand

C. 　 Create a subscription and publish VM templates to a subscribed content library

D. 　 Create a subscribed library from the published library and synchronize Open Virtualization Format (OVF) templates automatically

E. 　 Clone virtual machines as Open Virtualization Format (OVF)templates to the published content library

F. 　 Update the role for the DevOps team with new privileges

10 GbE storage connectivity for all devices.
The solution architect is tasked with coming up with a solution to meet this requirement while utilizing their existing investments.
Which two recommendations could the architect make? Choose two.

A. 　 Use vSAN native support for WSFC

B. 　 Use NFS 4.1 shares for quorum and shared disk

C. 　 Use raw device mapping (RDM)

D. 　 Use the SMB 2.1 protocol for sharing disks

E. 　 Run WSFC on vSAN iSCSI Target Service

38.Refer to the exhibit.

A. 　 Enable vSphere HA and add a VM Override with VM Restart Priority set to Disabled

B. 　 Enable Fault Tolerance

C. 　 Achieve application availability with snapshots

D. 　 Enable vSphere HA and add a VM Override with VM Restart Priority set to Lowest

22.An architect is tasked with reviewing the design of a VMware software-defined data center ( ) for a software development company. The platform is used to developing applications and services. It is important that the customer be able to accurately benchmark performance of developed applications.
The platform has recently commissioned new hosts to update the development cluster.The development cluster host configuration is:
--4 ESXi hosts with 2 sockets × 16 cores
--512 GB RAM divided evenly between sockets
--There is no resource contention
--The benchmarking cluster host configuration is:
--8 ESXi hosts with 2 sockets × 8 cores
--256 GB RAM divided evenly between sockets
--There is no resource contention
--The customer is developing an application that includes a database virtual machine、 The application developer states that the database virtual machine performs as required only when allocated 8 vCPUs 256 GB RAM. The database virtual machine performance meets the required levels when run from the development cluster. Performance benchmarking for the database virtual machine yields highly variable results when run from the benchmarking cluster. The application cannot be released without reliable performance benchmarking data
What is a possible reason for the difference in performance test results between the development and benchmarking clusters?

A. 　 The database tier breaches a single NUMA node boundary for the benchmarking cluster

B. 　 The database tier breaches a single NUMA node boundary for the development cluster

C. 　 The development cluster can support a lower %Ready time per vCPU

D. 　 The development cluster has more available RAM per host
