An administrator is tasked with applying updates to a vSphere cluster running vSAN using vSphere Lifecycle Manager. Downtime to the ESXi hosts must be minimal while the work is completed.
The administrator has already completed the following steps and no errors have been returned:
Downloaded all applicable software and created a new image.
Attached the new image to the cluster and run a compliance check against the image for the cluster.
Ran a remediation pre-check for the cluster.
Which two series of steps should the administrator perform to start the remediation of the cluster using the new image? (Choose two.)

Un administrador tiene la tarea de aplicar actualizaciones a un cluster vSphere ejecutando vSAN usando vSphere Lifecycle Manager. El tiempo de inactividad de los hosts ESXi debe ser mínimo mientras se completa el trabajo.
El administrador ya ha completado los siguientes pasos y no se han devuelto errores:
Descargado todo el software aplicable y creado una nueva imagen.
Adjuntó la nueva imagen al clúster y ejecutó una comprobación de cumplimiento de la imagen para el clúster.
Ejecutó una comprobación previa de corrección para el clúster.
¿Qué dos series de pasos debe realizar el administrador para iniciar la corrección del clúster utilizando la nueva imagen? (Elija dos.)

• • A. 1. Use the Remediate option in vSphere Lifecycle Manager to remediate all of the ESXi hosts in the cluster in parallel.
    2. Allow vSphere Lifecycle Manager to automatically control maintenance mode on the ESXi hosts.

• • B. 1. Place each of the ESXi hosts into maintenance mode manually.
    2. Use the Stage option in vSphere Lifecycle Manager to stage the required software on all ESXi hosts one at a time.

• C. 1. Leave all ESXi hosts in the cluster operational.
  2. Use the Stage All option in vSphere Lifecycle Manager to stage the required software onto all ESXi hosts one at a time.

• • D. 1. Leave all ESXi hosts in the cluster operational.
    2. Use the Stage All option in vSphere Lifecycle Manager to stage the required software onto all ESXi hosts in the cluster in parallel.

• • E. 1. Use the Remediate option in vSphere Lifecycle Manager to remediate all of the ESXi hosts in the cluster in sequence.
    2. Allow vSphere Lifecycle Manager to automatically control maintenance mode on the ESXi hosts.

An administrator is working with VMware Support and is asked to provide log bundles for the ESXi hosts in an environment.
Which three options does the administrator have? (Choose three.)

• • A. Generate a combined log bundle for all ESXi hosts using the vCenter Management Interface.

  
  

• • B. Generate a separate log bundle for each ESXi host using the vSphere Host Client.

• Generate a combined log bundle for all ESXi hosts using the vSphere Client

• Generate a separate log bundle for each ESXi host using the vSphere Client.

• Generate a separate log bundle for each ESXi host using the vCenter Management Interface.

An administrator needs to consolidate a number of physical servers by migrating the workloads to a software-defined data center solution.
Which VMware solution should the administrator recommend?

An administrator is tasked with configuring remote direct memory access (RDMA) over Converged Ethernet v2 (RoCE v2).
Which two types of adapters must the administrator configure? (Choose two.)

• Paravirtual RDMA adapter

• RDMA network adapter

• Software iSCSi adapter

• Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) adapter

An administrator has a host profile named Standard-Config. The administrator wants to change the other host profiles to use only the storage configuration settings that are defined in the Standard-Config host profile.
What should the administrator do to make this change?

• Export host customizations and import them to the other host profiles.

• Copy the storage settings from Standard-Config to all other host profiles.

• Duplicate the Standard-Config host profile and only modify the storage configuration settings.

• Export the Standard-Config host profile and attach it to tile other hosts.

A vSphere cluster has the following configuration:
Virtual machines (VMs) are running Production and Test workloads vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) is enabled
There are no resource pools in the cluster
Performance monitoring data shows that the Production workload VMs are not receiving their fully allocated memory when the vSphere cluster is fully utilized.
A combination of which two steps could the administrator perform to ensure that the Production VMs are always guaranteed the full allocation of memory? (Choose two.)

• Assign a custom memory share value to the resource pool containing the Production VMs

• Assign a memory reservation value to the resource pool containing the Production VMs

• Create a parent resource pool for the Production VMs

• Create a sibling resource pool for each of the Production and Test VMs

• Create a child resource pool for the Test VMs

Which two datastore types store the components of a virtual machine as a set of objects? (Choose two.)

• • A. VMware Virtual Machine File System (VMFS)

  
  

• • B. VMware vSAN

  
  

• • C. Network File System (NFS) 3

  
  

• • D. vSphere Virtual Volumes (vVols)

  
  

• • E. Network File System (NFS) 4.1
