VCP-CMA 2024 Question 105
Select 3An organization is using VMware Aria Automation to deploy workloads across multiple cloud environments. They want to ensure that certain workloads are deployed only on hosts with specific hardware capabilities, such as GPUs for machine learning tasks. You are tasked with configuring this requirement using Capability Tags. What steps should you take to achieve this?
- A
Assign Capability Tags to the compute resources that have the required hardware capabilities, such as GPUs.
- B
Create Storage Policies with Capability Tags and assign them to the corresponding storage resources.
- C
Add Constraint Tags to the deployment blueprint to specify the required Capability Tag.
- D
Use a custom script in the blueprint to dynamically assign a Capability Tag during deployment.
- E
Verify that the Capability Tag in the compute resource matches the Constraint Tag in the blueprint.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, E
Explanation
To ensure workloads are deployed only on hosts with specific hardware capabilities, Capability Tags need to be assigned to the compute resources that meet the criteria (e.g., GPUs). Constraint Tags in the blueprint must then specify the required Capability Tag, and the system automatically matches the resources during deployment. Storage Policies and custom scripts are not relevant in this context.
- A. Correct.
Assigning Capability Tags to compute resources is a necessary step to identify which resources (e.g., hosts or clusters) have specific hardware or software capabilities, such as GPUs.
- B. Incorrect.
Storage Policies are unrelated to Capability Tags for compute resources. Capability Tags are used for matching resources with specific attributes, not for storage configuration.
- C. Correct.
Adding Constraint Tags to the deployment blueprint is required so the deployment can select resources with the desired Capability Tag.
- D. Incorrect.
Custom scripts are not necessary for assigning or matching Capability Tags. Tags are configured and matched declaratively within VMware Aria Automation.
- E. Correct.
Verifying the match between the Capability Tag on the compute resource and the Constraint Tag in the blueprint ensures that the deployment logic aligns with the defined requirements.
