2V0-32.24 Question 65
Single answerYour organization is planning to deploy vRealize Operations to monitor a virtualized environment consisting of 800 Virtual Machines (VMs) and 80 hosts across two datacenters. Each datacenter is expected to have 50% of the workload. The workload is expected to grow by 20% over the next year. Based on VMware's sizing guidelines, which configuration would be the most appropriate for this deployment?
- A
Deploy a single vRealize Operations instance with 8 nodes, each with 8 vCPUs and 32 GB of RAM.
- B
Deploy a single vRealize Operations instance with 4 nodes, each with 16 vCPUs and 64 GB of RAM.
- C
Deploy two separate vRealize Operations instances (one per datacenter), each with 4 nodes, each node having 8 vCPUs and 32 GB of RAM.
- D
Deploy a single vRealize Operations instance with 6 nodes, each with 16 vCPUs and 64 GB of RAM.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
VMware sizing guidelines recommend a single vRealize Operations instance for monitoring environments unless there are specific requirements for multiple instances. For an environment with 800 VMs and 80 hosts, a single instance with 4 nodes, each having 16 vCPUs and 64 GB of RAM, is sufficient to meet current demands and accommodate a 20% growth in workload. This configuration balances resource efficiency and scalability without over-provisioning.
- A. Incorrect.
This configuration provides an excessive number of nodes and resources, leading to over-provisioning and unnecessary costs.
- B. Correct.
This configuration aligns with VMware's sizing guidelines for 800 VMs and 80 hosts, with sufficient capacity to accommodate a 20% growth in workload.
- C. Incorrect.
While this configuration distributes resources across datacenters, it creates unnecessary complexity and does not align with VMware's recommendations for a single instance deployment.
- D. Incorrect.
This configuration over-provisions resources, as the workload does not require such a high number of nodes with large resource allocations.
