2V0-21.23 Question 296
Single answerYou are tasked with configuring vSphere Zones in your environment to support workload placement across multiple clusters. After configuring a vSphere Zone, which of the following steps is required to ensure that VMs can be effectively deployed to the zone?
- A
Assign compute resources to the zone by adding the required clusters to it.
- B
Manually assign hosts to the zone for granular control.
- C
Configure Storage Policies to match the zone's storage capabilities.
- D
Enable Enhanced vMotion Compatibility (EVC) for the zone.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
vSphere Zones are logical constructs designed to group multiple clusters for workload placement. To configure a vSphere Zone effectively, you must assign compute resources by adding clusters to the zone. This ensures that the zone has the necessary resources for VM deployment. Other steps, such as configuring storage policies or enabling EVC, may be beneficial but are not mandatory for creating a functional vSphere Zone.
- A. Correct.
Correct: Adding clusters to a vSphere Zone assigns compute resources, enabling workload placement across the zone.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Hosts are not directly added to a vSphere Zone; clusters are used to group resources within a zone.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: While storage policies are important for VM placement, they are not a required step for configuring a vSphere Zone.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Enabling EVC is not mandatory for configuring a vSphere Zone. EVC is used for ensuring CPU compatibility for vMotion but is unrelated to the zone configuration process.
