VCP-CMA 2024 Question 153
Select 3A cloud administrator is troubleshooting a failed deployment in VMware Aria Automation. The deployment logs show the following error: 'Resource allocation failed: Insufficient compute resources available in the selected cloud zone.' Which of the following actions should the administrator take to resolve the issue?
- A
Verify and update the placement policies in the cloud zone configuration.
- B
Increase the CPU and memory resources available in the cloud zone.
- C
Ensure that the requested image is available in the cloud zone's associated cloud account.
- D
Reconfigure the blueprint to request fewer resources for the deployment.
- E
Modify the deployment profile to select a different cloud zone.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
The error 'Insufficient compute resources available in the selected cloud zone' indicates a lack of available resources (CPU, memory, or other constraints) in the specified cloud zone. Actions such as verifying placement policies, increasing resource availability, or reducing resource requests in the blueprint are effective ways to address the issue. Ensuring image availability or selecting a different cloud zone may not directly resolve the specific error.
- A. Correct.
Updating the placement policies can help ensure the resources are allocated correctly within the cloud zone, avoiding resource allocation issues.
- B. Correct.
Increasing the available compute resources (CPU and memory) in the cloud zone can directly resolve resource shortages that cause provisioning failures.
- C. Incorrect.
While ensuring the requested image is available is a good practice, it does not directly address insufficient compute resources in the cloud zone.
- D. Correct.
Reducing the resource request in the blueprint can resolve the issue if the deployment is failing due to high resource demands exceeding the available capacity.
- E. Incorrect.
Changing the deployment profile to select a different cloud zone might not resolve the issue if the original cloud zone is intended to be used, and this does not address the specific error related to resource allocation.
