2V0-71.23 Question 242
Select 4You are tasked with provisioning a Supervisor Cluster on a vSphere 8 environment to enable Kubernetes workloads. Which of the following are necessary steps to successfully provision the Supervisor Cluster?
- A
Enable Workload Management in the vSphere Client.
- B
Configure a compatible storage policy for the cluster.
- C
Install a Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Management Cluster before enabling the Supervisor Cluster.
- D
Assign a Load Balancer or NSX-T configuration for networking.
- E
Ensure ESXi hosts in the cluster meet the minimum required version and licensing.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D, E
Explanation
Provisioning a Supervisor Cluster on vSphere requires enabling Workload Management, configuring necessary storage policies, ensuring networking capabilities (such as NSX-T or a Load Balancer), and meeting the minimum ESXi version and licensing requirements. While a Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Management Cluster can be complementary, it is not a mandatory requirement for Supervisor Cluster provisioning.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Enabling Workload Management is the first step in preparing the vSphere environment for a Supervisor Cluster.
- B. Correct.
Correct. A compatible storage policy is required to support Kubernetes persistent volumes and Supervisor Cluster workloads.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect. A Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Management Cluster is not a prerequisite for provisioning a Supervisor Cluster; the Supervisor Cluster operates natively within vSphere.
- D. Correct.
Correct. Networking configuration, such as NSX-T or a supported Load Balancer, is critical for the Supervisor Cluster to manage Kubernetes workloads and provide ingress/egress.
- E. Correct.
Correct. ESXi hosts must meet the minimum version (7.0 or later) and be licensed appropriately (e.g., vSphere Enterprise Plus with Tanzu) to support the Supervisor Cluster.
