An architect is reviewing the information gathered from an initial requirements gathering workshop.

The following requirements have been identified:

REQ001 – The architecture must support tracking of administrative logons and actions.
REQ002 – The architecture must support class three (three nines or 99.9%) system availability.
REQ003 – The architecture must report on system usage in terms of CPU, memory, storage and network.
REQ004 – The architecture must provide for system recovery point objective (RPO) of two hours.
REQ005 – The architecture must provide access to a precision time protocol (PTP) for time synchronization.

Which two of the listed requirements would be classified as business (formerly functional) requirements? (Choose two.)

A. The architecture must provide access to a precision time protocol (PTP) for time synchronization.

C. The architecture must support class three (Three nines or 99.9%) system availability.

D. The architecture must support tracking of administrative logons and actions.

E. The architecture must provide for system recovery point objective (RPO) of two hours.

An architect is tasked with designing a new workload domain in an existing VMware Cloud Foundation environment. The customer requirement is to physically separate the NSX host overlay network traffic from other management networks flows.

Which design decision should the architect make to meet this requirement?

A. Deploy the new workload domain with NSX Federation.

B. Deploy the new workload domain using multiple physical adapters.

C. Deploy the new workload domain using SDDC Manager.

D. Deploy the new workload domain using API.

A company has the requirement of ensuring that business-critical applications have the necessary network bandwidth to function optimally and maintain a consistent quality of service (QoS).

Which statement would be included in the logical design to support this requirement?

A. The network infrastructure must ensure secure communications and efficiently use available bandwidth.

B. Network resource pool named "bca-pool-02" is given a reservation quota of 5 Gbit/sec.

C. The distributed switch will use a minimum of 25 Gbps Ethernet.

D. A distributed virtual switch will be created and Network I/O Control will be enabled.

Refer to the exhibit.

An architect is assigned a new project to design a VMware hybrid cloud solution.

The project is following a proven design methodology following the V-Model of systems engineering and verification. The selected methodology follows these phases: Assess, Design, Deploy and Validate.

Which activity would be conducted during the Design phase?

A. The architect conducts a series of group interviews with stakeholders

B. The architect helps stakeholders learn the mechanics of the solution

C. The architect resolves configuration issues and addresses concerns

D. The architect defines the scope of the project

An architect is tasked with designing a solution to monitor the operational state of a VMware Cloud Foundation environment through ad-hoc reporting and custom dashboards, alerts, and notifications.

Using VMware Validated Solutions, which validated solution can the architect leverage to meet this requirement?

A. Private Cloud Automation for VMware Cloud Foundation

B. Intelligent Operations Management for VMware Cloud Foundation

C. VMware Validated Design for VMware Cloud Foundation

D. Heath Reporting and Monitoring for VMware Cloud Foundation

An architect is designing a backup solution.
Which two statements should be included in the logical design for this solution? (Choose two.)

A. The database must be backed up even/ day during the maintenance window of 1:00AM and 3:00AM.

B. The network that will be used for backups will be configured to use VLAN ID 1511.

C. The bkp-nfs-01 datastore will be used for backups.

D. The company's existing backup solution will be unsupported by the third-party vendor in six months.

E. The database will be backed up using an API-based backup solution.

An architect is discussing recoverability considerations for a new vSphere solution as part of a requirements workshop. The customer has informed the architect that the company policy is to not perform backups of ESXi hosts due to their selected backup software not supporting the ESXi software. In the past, when hosts have experienced failures, the hosts have been reinstalled from the VMware provided ESXi image and manually configured by an administrator. The customer asks the architect to design a solution that will reduce the manual effort required by the administrator to return a failed host to service.

What could the architect include in the design to meet the customer's request?

A. Use the ESXi command line to perform backups of the ESXi hosts to a central location

B. Configure a host profile per cluster

C. Create a custom iso image of ESXi and update it each time VMware releases a new update

D. Configure ESXi hosts with RAID1 boot volumes

An architect is tasked with an application migration to a new VMware Cloud platform. The application service owner assistance from the architect to identify the technical requirements of the application.

The following has been made available following initial discussions:

A VMware Aria Operations report containing current resource usage
The output from a planning session including a roadmap for planned service growth
A service dependency map from the company’s IT operations management tool
The desired consolidation ratio for the target platform is 10:1
The applications hosting budget is reducing by 10%

Which two contain the technical requirements of the application? (Choose two.)

A. The output from a planning session including a roadmap for planned service growth

B. The desired consolidation ratio for the target platform is 10:1

C. A VMware Aria Operations report containing current resource usage

D. The applications hosting budget is reducing by 10%

E. A service dependency map from the company's IT operations management tool
