2V0-71.23 Question 243
Select 4You are tasked with provisioning a Supervisor Cluster on an existing vSphere environment. Which of the following steps are required to successfully provision the Supervisor Cluster?
- A
Configure the vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS) with appropriate network settings for the Supervisor Cluster.
- B
Enable Workload Management on the vSphere cluster using the vSphere Client.
- C
Deploy the Tanzu Kubernetes Grid (TKG) CLI on the management workstation before configuring the Supervisor Cluster.
- D
Create a Content Library in vSphere and import the required Kubernetes OVAs.
- E
Ensure the ESXi hosts in the cluster are running on a supported version for vSphere with Tanzu.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D, E
Explanation
Provisioning a Supervisor Cluster involves preparing the vSphere environment with appropriate prerequisites such as configuring the vSphere Distributed Switch, ensuring the ESXi hosts are running a supported version, and setting up a Content Library for Kubernetes OVA templates. Enabling Workload Management finalizes the provisioning process by deploying the Kubernetes control plane. The Tanzu Kubernetes Grid CLI is not required for this initial setup but is used later for deploying Kubernetes clusters.
- A. Correct.
Correct: Configuring the vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS) with appropriate network settings is a prerequisite for the Supervisor Cluster as it establishes the necessary networking configuration for Kubernetes workloads.
- B. Correct.
Correct: Enabling Workload Management is a critical step in provisioning the Supervisor Cluster as it sets up the Kubernetes control plane within the vSphere environment.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: The Tanzu Kubernetes Grid CLI is not directly required to provision a Supervisor Cluster. It is used for deploying Tanzu Kubernetes clusters after the Supervisor Cluster is provisioned.
- D. Correct.
Correct: A Content Library is required to store the Kubernetes OVA templates that are necessary for deploying control plane VMs for the Supervisor Cluster.
- E. Correct.
Correct: Ensuring the ESXi hosts are running a supported version is essential because vSphere with Tanzu has specific version requirements for compatibility.
