2V0-32.24 Question 63
Single answerYou are tasked with designing a vRealize Log Insight deployment for a customer. The customer's environment generates approximately 2,400 events per second (EPS), with a growth projection of 25% over the next year. The customer requires high availability and plans to retain logs for 30 days. Based on VMware best practices, how should you size the deployment?
- A
Deploy a 3-node cluster with 1 master node and 2 worker nodes, each with 8 vCPUs and 16 GB of RAM.
- B
Deploy a 1-node standalone instance with 8 vCPUs and 16 GB of RAM.
- C
Deploy a 5-node cluster with 1 master node and 4 worker nodes, each with 32 vCPUs and 64 GB of RAM.
- D
Deploy a 3-node cluster with 1 master node and 2 worker nodes, each with 16 vCPUs and 32 GB of RAM.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
To size a vRealize Log Insight deployment, it is crucial to account for the current and projected EPS, retention period, and high availability requirements. VMware recommends a 3-node cluster for high availability, with each node sized to handle the expected workload. Given the 2,400 EPS and 25% growth projection, a 3-node cluster with 16 vCPUs and 32 GB of RAM per node is sufficient to meet the demands while adhering to best practices.
- A. Incorrect.
This configuration is insufficient for the expected workload and future growth. A 3-node cluster with 8 vCPUs and 16 GB of RAM per node cannot handle 2,400 EPS with a 25% growth projection while maintaining high availability and 30-day retention.
- B. Incorrect.
A standalone instance is not recommended for high availability, and the specified capacity will not scale to handle the expected EPS with 25% growth.
- C. Incorrect.
This configuration exceeds the requirements for the expected EPS and growth projection. While it ensures capacity and high availability, it is unnecessarily oversized, leading to inefficient resource utilization.
- D. Correct.
This configuration aligns with VMware best practices for handling the expected EPS (2,400 EPS + 25% growth) while providing high availability and 30-day retention. The vCPU, memory, and cluster size are appropriately sized for the workload.
