VCP-CMA 2024 Question 179
Select 3A cloud administrator is tasked with onboarding a new cloud account into VMware Aria Automation. The cloud provider requires the administrator to configure API keys for authentication. During the configuration process, the administrator notices that some resources from the cloud provider are not being discovered in VMware Aria Automation. What could be the possible cause of this issue?
- A
The API key used does not have sufficient permissions to access all resources.
- B
The region where the resources are deployed is not enabled in the cloud account configuration.
- C
The VMware Aria Automation license does not support the integration of this specific cloud provider.
- D
The cloud provider's services require additional configuration for resource discovery.
- E
The cloud account was not associated with a project in VMware Aria Automation.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
When onboarding a new cloud account in VMware Aria Automation, it is critical to ensure that the API key used has sufficient permissions, the appropriate regions are enabled, and any required configurations for the cloud provider's services are completed. These steps ensure successful resource discovery. Licensing and project association are unrelated to resource discovery issues in this scenario.
- A. Correct.
If the API key used for the cloud account does not have sufficient permissions, VMware Aria Automation will not be able to discover all resources from the cloud provider.
- B. Correct.
If the region where the resources are deployed is not enabled during the cloud account configuration, VMware Aria Automation will not discover those resources.
- C. Incorrect.
VMware Aria Automation supports integration with major cloud providers, and this issue is unlikely to be related to licensing.
- D. Correct.
Some cloud provider services may require additional configuration, such as enabling APIs or setting up specific roles, to allow resource discovery in VMware Aria Automation.
- E. Incorrect.
While associating a cloud account with a project in VMware Aria Automation is necessary for provisioning and management, it does not impact the discovery of resources.
