An architect is tasked with recommending a solution for a company that is running out of VLANs. Currently the company is running two separate data centers based on vSphere including an Enterprise Plus license.

A. Separate Distributed Virtual Switches (DVS)
B. Private VLANs (PVLAN)
C. Virtual Guest Tagging (VGT)
D. vSwitch VLAN Tagging (VST)
During a requirements gathering workshop to design a physical to virtual migration, the customer provides
the following information:
There is no physical firewall in the data center with no anticipated plans for a future network refresh.
Leveraging the virtual infrastructure to mitigate the lack of network security must be addressed in the
design.
All physical servers to be migrated exist on the same VLAN.
Which recommendation should the architect make to address the customer requirement with regard to
virtual networking?
A. Split the virtual machines into several VLANs Use tag actions
B. Create port groups with different names and same VLAN IDs Enable traffic shaping for ingress and egress traffic
C. Enable traffic filtering and marking Use allow or drop actions
D. Disable traffic filtering and marking Use tag actions
In a meeting to discuss the minimum viable product (MVP) deployment of a new customer-facing application, the key stakeholder shares details of the application components and the application administrators share details of performance and integrity tests for the application.
The application will be made up of the following components: A web server
-
Steps to confirm the web server is operating correctly will take 15 minutes after the application server is online. An application server
-
Steps to confirm application server integrity will take 15 minutes after the database is online. A database server
-The database server will be managed by a database administrator, with an agreed service-level agreement (SLA) to restore and validate database services within one hour.
The existing VMware infrastructure offers a recovery point objective (RPO) of 5 minutes and recovery time objective (RTO) of 15 minutes through a combination of backups and replication.
In the event of an outage impacting all three application components, how long will it take for the application to recover and complete all checks?
A. 15 minutes
B. 60 minutes
C. 105 minutes
D. 90 minutes
Following a recent acquisition, an architect needs to merge IT assets into its current data center. The
combined vSphere environment will need to run the newly acquired company's virtual machines.
Network integration work has already been completed and the current environment has capacity to host all
virtual machines. The Operations team needs to identify which virtual machines belong to the acquired
company and report on their usage.
How should the architect merge the company's assets and virtual machines?
A. Leave the newly acquired company's assets in its current place
B. Lift and shift the acquired assets into the data center
C. Migrate the acquired company's virtual machines into the existing vSphere environment
D. Migrate and apply vSphere tags to the acquired company's virtual machines
The Chief Operating Officer (COO) at an organization raises concerns that their virtual infrastructure environment is vulnerable. Recently, a security-related issue with a virtual machine caused all management services to become unavailable. No budget is available in the short term for additional platform investment. An architect is asked to review the current environment and make recommendations to mitigate concerns.
A virtualization administrator has provided the following details: There is a single four node cluster of ESXi servers There are two, Layer 2, physical network switches connecting resources The data center network is presented as a single /16 subnet
Given the information provided, which functional requirement should the architect include in the design to mitigate the COOs concerns?
A. The virtual infrastructure environment must connect application virtual machines and management services to new physical network switches
B. The virtual infrastructure environment must connect application virtual machines and management services to separate distributed virtual switches (DVS)
C. The virtual infrastructure environment must connect application virtual machines and management services to separate VLANs
D. The virtual infrastructure environment must connect management services to a vSphere standard switch (VSS)
An architect is tasked with designing a greenfield VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) solution
that will be used to deliver a private cloud service for a customer.
During the initial meeting with the service owner and business sponsor, the customer has provided the
following information to help inform the design:
The solution must initially support the concurrent running of 300 production and 600 development virtual
machines.
The production environment should be delivered across two geographically dispersed data centers.
The development environment must be vSphere-based but does not have to be deployed on-premises.
The two data centers are connected to each other through multiple diversely routed, high bandwidth and
low latency links.
The customer's server hardware standard document states that all virtual infrastructure hosts must be
based on blade architecture only.
The service owner has said that is important to ensure that neither the availability target of 99.5% nor the
resource capacity is affected when the operations team completes maintenance activities, such as the
monthly software patching and ad-hoc hardware break/fix.
All virtual machine backups must be completed using the existing backup service.
The recovery time objective (RTO) for the service is four hours.
The recovery point objective (RPO) of the service is 24 hours.
Given the information from the customer, which two would be classified as assumptions within the design? (Choose two.)
A. The backup service will store data in a secure facility
B. The backup service has sufficient capacity for the new requirements
C. The customer will update their hardware standard to support rack mount servers
D. All virtual machines will be deployed with the same resource profile for production and development
E. The clusters will have a minimum redundancy of N+1
The storage team at an organization is planning to migrate from an older Fibre Channel storage environment to a new environment using IP-based storage.

C. 2:1 or greater bandwidth oversubscription for 10 GbE switches
D. Non-blocking switch
E. Deep or ultra buffered switches
An architect is designing a new VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) that will consist of 100 branch sites connected to a single VMware vCenter Server within the primary data center. To allow for the use of existing automation scripts, there is a requirement to replicate the names of the virtual distributed port groups across all sites. The procurement team purchases licensing and there is no further budget allocated.
Which design decision should the architect make to meet this requirement?
A. A new vCenter Server will be deployed for each branch site
B. A new host and cluster folder will be created for each branch site
C. The automation script will be updated to reflect unique naming for each site
D. A new virtual data center will be created for each branch site
