VCP-CMA 2024 Question 108
Single answerAn administrator is setting up a new vRealize Automation environment and wants to ensure that workloads are deployed to specific clusters based on performance and compliance requirements. To achieve this, the administrator configures capability tags. Which step is required to correctly implement capability tags for workload placement?
- A
Assign capability tags to compute resources and matching capability constraints to projects.
- B
Apply capability tags to cloud zones and define matching constraints in blueprint settings.
- C
Use capability tags on storage policies and reference them in network profiles.
- D
Configure capability tags on placement policies and associate them with resource tags.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Capability tags in vRealize Automation are used to ensure that workloads are placed on appropriate resources that meet specific requirements. To implement them effectively, tags are applied to cloud zones, and corresponding constraints are defined in blueprints. This ensures that workloads are deployed to resources that match the specified tags during placement, satisfying performance and compliance needs.
- A. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Capability tags are not directly assigned to projects. Capability tags are applied to resources (e.g., cloud zones or compute resources), but constraints are utilized at the blueprint or project level.
- B. Correct.
Correct. Capability tags should be applied to cloud zones, and matching constraints should be configured in the blueprint, allowing workloads to be deployed to appropriate resources based on the tags.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Capability tags are not used on storage policies or referenced in network profiles. They are designed for matching cloud resources during workload placement.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Capability tags are not configured on placement policies. Instead, they are applied to resources such as cloud zones, and constraints are used in blueprints to ensure proper placement based on tags.
