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.

A vSAN administrator is implementing deduplication and compression on a vSAN all-flash cluster but wants the VMs to remain operational. The details are as follows: ✑ There are 4 nodes in the vSAN cluster. ✑ Existing VMs use a RAID-5 storage policy. Which action should the vSAN administrator take to meet this goal?

• A. Use explicit fault domains
• B. Enable TRIM/UNMAP
• C. Change the existing VM storage policy to RAID-6
• D. Use the Allow Reduced Redundancy option

What are two purposes of a vSAN storage policy (Choose two.)

• E. To enable deduplication and compression

An existing vSAN cluster has this specification: ✑ Four ESXi hosts with all flash configuration ✑ Each with two disk groups ✑ Each disk group with one cache device and four capacity devices ✑ There are five more device slots available The CTO would like to provision new applications, and these will need more capacity and performance. Which two methods may be used by the vSAN administrator to meet this goal? (Choose two.)

• A. Adding faster cache devices
• B. Adding one more disk group per host with the same configuration
• C. Replacing all cache devices by a larger device
• D. Adding an ESXi host with identical device configuration
• E. Replacing all capacity devices by a larger device

Skyline Health vSAN HCL DB up-to-date health check is alerting in red in a newly deployed vCenter Server. Which two options are the possible solutions for this problem? (Choose two.)

• A. Obtain the HCL DB offline bundle from vmware.com, and manually update it
• B. Upgrade to the latest version of vCenter
• C. Upgrade the HCL DB from the hardware vendor website
• D. Obtain the HCL DB from the hardware vendor, and manually update it
• E. Update the HCL DB online from vmware.com.

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)`. The vSAN administrator needs to reduce the amount of vSAN datastore capacity the virtual machines will consume. Which action should the vSAN administrator take to meet this goal?

• A. Change the FTT rule to "1 Failure - RAID-1 (Mirroring)", and select "Now" for Reapply to VMs
• 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. Modify the FTT rule to "2 Failures - RAID-5 (Erasure Coding)"
