Question 9

During yesterdays business hours, a cache drive failed on one of the vSAN nodes. The administrator
reached out to the manufacturer and received a replacement drive the following day. When the drive
failed, vSAN started a resync to ensure the health of data, and all objects are showing a healthy and
compliant state. The vSAN administrator needs to replace the failed cache drive.
Which set of steps should the vSAN administrator take?

  • A. Remove the existing vSAN disk group, and physically replace the device. Then, check to verity that the ESXi host automatically detects the new device. Afterwards, manually recreate the Disk Group.
  • B. Physically replace the failed cache device, and vSAN will automatically create a new disk group. Then, remove the disk group with the failed device.
  • C. Physically replace the failed cache device, and vSAN will automatically allocate the storage. Then, rebalance the cache layer.
  • D. Place the disk group into maintenance mode, and select Full Data Migration. Then, physically replace the failed cache device. Afterwards. vSAN will rebuild the disk group automatically.

Question 14

A vSAN administrator has a vSAN cluster that is using vSphere Lifecycle Manager (vLCM) to manage
hypervisor, server drivers, and firmware. All hosts in the cluster are compliant according to the vLCM
image.
A 10GB NIC on the servers is experiencing issues, the vSAN administrator determines a new network
driver will resolve the problem. Unfortunately, the required NIC driver is a newer version compared
to the driver provided by the most recent Vendor Addon.
Which action should the vSAN administrator take to ensure the latest network driver is installed on
the NIC before remediation?

  • A. Add an individual component to the vLCM image that has the updated NIC driver.
  • B. Since server vendors release periodic server Vendor Addon updates, make sure the vLCM image is configured to use the most recent version of the vendor addon.
  • C. Modify the vLCM image to omit the NIC Driver, and then manually update the servers with the required NIC driver.
  • D. Remove the Vendor Addon from the vLCM image, and then manually install the network driver on the servers.
