VCP-CMA 2024 Question 21
Single answerAn organization is using VMware Aria Automation (formerly vRealize Automation) to manage its multi-cloud environment. A cloud administrator is tasked with creating a new blueprint for deploying a multi-tier application. The blueprint must support dynamic IP allocation, enable scaling of the application tiers, and allow for post-deployment updates. Which feature or capability should the administrator prioritize to meet these requirements?
- A
Use a Cloud Assembly blueprint with network profiles and constraints.
- B
Leverage VMware Aria Orchestrator workflows within the blueprint.
- C
Enable NSX-T integration for managing application networking.
- D
Configure custom properties for static IP assignment.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
To meet the requirements of dynamic IP allocation, scalability, and post-deployment updates, the administrator should use a Cloud Assembly blueprint with network profiles and constraints. This approach provides full flexibility and capability to manage multi-tier application deployments in a multi-cloud environment.
- A. Correct.
Cloud Assembly blueprints with network profiles and constraints allow for dynamic IP allocation, scaling, and post-deployment updates, making it the most suitable option for these requirements.
- B. Incorrect.
While VMware Aria Orchestrator workflows can automate tasks, they are not specifically designed for dynamic IP allocation or scaling within a blueprint.
- C. Incorrect.
NSX-T integration provides advanced networking capabilities, but it does not directly address the requirements of dynamic IP allocation, scaling, and post-deployment updates in a blueprint.
- D. Incorrect.
Static IP assignment with custom properties is the opposite of dynamic IP allocation and does not meet the requirement for scalability or post-deployment updates.
