Question 12

All of the virtual machines running on a hybrid vSAN datastore have this storage policy assigned:
Failures to Tolerate (FTT) rule is set to "2 Failures - RAID-1 (Mirroring)"

  • B. Add the "Flash read cache reservation" rule to the storage policy, and set to 0%
  • C. Disable Operations reserve and Host rebuild reserve and click "Apply"
  • D. Change the FTT rule to "1 Failure - RAID-1 (Mirroring)", and select "Now" for Reapply to VMs

Question 15

A vSAN administrator has a cluster configured with a Storage Pool that was moved to a new physical
DC.
