2V0-71.23 Question 65
Select 3An organization is preparing to deploy vSphere with Tanzu in their environment. As part of the administration requirements, they want to ensure proper configuration for workload management. Which of the following are necessary steps for enabling workload management in vSphere with Tanzu?
- A
Configure a vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS) with appropriate port groups for Tanzu networking.
- B
Ensure that the vSphere cluster is enabled with DRS in manual mode.
- C
Deploy and configure a compatible load balancer, such as NSX Advanced Load Balancer or HAProxy.
- D
Assign a storage policy for persistent volumes to be used by Tanzu Kubernetes clusters.
- E
Enable vSphere High Availability (HA) on the cluster to support Tanzu Kubernetes Grid workloads.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, D
Explanation
Enabling workload management in vSphere with Tanzu requires specific configurations, such as setting up a vSphere Distributed Switch for networking, deploying a load balancer for traffic management, and ensuring storage policies are assigned for persistent volumes. While features like DRS and HA can improve cluster operations, DRS must be in fully automated mode, and HA is not a mandatory requirement for Tanzu workload management.
- A. Correct.
Correct: A vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS) is a prerequisite for configuring Tanzu networking as it facilitates communication between Kubernetes components and applications.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect: While DRS is required, it must be enabled in fully automated mode, not manual mode, to ensure proper functionality for Tanzu workload management.
- C. Correct.
Correct: A load balancer is required to manage traffic for Kubernetes services. NSX Advanced Load Balancer or HAProxy is commonly used and supported.
- D. Correct.
Correct: Assigning a storage policy ensures that persistent volumes can be created and managed for Tanzu Kubernetes clusters.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: vSphere High Availability (HA) is not a strict requirement for enabling Tanzu workload management, though it can be beneficial for overall cluster resiliency.
