Which two solutions require Physical Mode Raw Device Mapping (RDM)? (Choose two.)
Answer : A,D
Explanation:
Normally, Direct access to storage array device and guest clustering across ESXi hosts required the use of Physical Mode raw device mapping.
An administrator created a six node Virtual SAN cluster, created a fault domain, and moved three of the six nodes into that domain.
A node that is a member of the fault domain fails.
What is the expected result?
Answer : A
Explanation:
When the member of the fault domain fails, the remaining two fault domain members are treated as failed too.
Which two statements are true regarding Virtual SAN Fault Domains? (Choose two.)
Answer : A,B
Explanation:
A fault domain consists of one or more Virtual SAN hosts grouped together according to their physical location in the data center. When configured, fault domains enable Virtual
SAN to tolerate failures of entire physical rack as well as failures of a single host, capacity device, network link or a network switch dedicated to fault domains. Fault domains cannot be configured for stretched or metro clusters.

Refer to the Exhibit.
Answer : B
Explanation:
When the command is run, I/O will rotate on all storage targets regardless of port group state.
Refer to the Exhibit.
Answer : A
Explanation:
The datastore will use up 200.01 GBof free space on the device.
Refer to the Exhibit.
Answer : A,C
Explanation:
The iSCSI device is having high latency. You can see the response time peaking with high latency for Guest OS.
What are two use cases for Fibre Channel Zoning in a vSphere environment? (Choose two.)
Answer : B,D
Explanation:
Zoning provides access control in the SAN topology. Zoning defines which HBAs can connect to which targets. When you configure a SAN by using zoning, the devices outside a zone are not visible to the devices inside the zone.

Which two tasks does the Pluggable Storage Architecture (PSA) perform? (Choose two.)
Answer : A,C
Explanation:
When coordinating the VMware NMP and any installed third-party MPPs, the PSA performs the following tasks:
-> Loads and unloads multipathing plug-ins.
-> Hides virtual machine specifics from a particular plug-in.
-> Routes I/O requests for a specific logical device to the MPP managing that device.
-> Handles I/O queueing to the logical devices.
-> Implements logical device bandwidth sharing between virtual machines.
-> Handles I/O queueing to the physical storage HBAs.
-> Handles physical path discovery and removal.
-> Provides logical device and physical path I/O statistics.

Refer to the Exhibit.
Answer : A,B
Explanation:
To create the disk group, you have to build a disk group with a flash drive and three HDDs or you can build two groups with one flash drive and two HDDs each.
Refer to the Exhibit.
Answer : A,B
Explanation:
The Virtual SAN policy shows that the tolerate level is on so losing a cluster node will not affect data availability. Same is the case with hard disk in cluster node. Losing it will not affect data availability.
Which two statements are true regarding VMFS3 volumes in ESXi 6.x? (Choose two.)
Answer : A,B
Explanation:
While a VMFS-3, which is upgraded to VMFS-5, provides you with most of the capabilities as a newly created VMFS-5, there are some differences. Both upgraded and newly created
VMFS-5 support single-extent volumes up to 64TB and both support VMDK sizes of ~2TB, no matter what the VMFS file-block size is. However additional differences, although minor, should be considered when making a decision whether to upgrade to VMFS-5 or create new VMFS-5 volumes.

Refer to the Exhibit.
Answer : A
Explanation:
As you can see in the exhibit, the 100GB VMFS5 datastore is created with free space available for expansion.
An administrator is configuring virtual machines to use Worldwide Port Names (WWPNs) to access the storage.
Which two conditions are required? (Choose two.)
Answer : A,B
Explanation:
To configure virtual machines to use WWPNs, you have to set N-Port ID virtualization aware setting on the switches in the fabric and you should also make sure that the virtual machines must be using passthrough raw disk mapping.
