VCP-CMA 2024 Question 69
Select 3You are tasked with configuring a new blueprint in VMware Aria Automation (formerly vRealize Automation) and need to ensure that the virtual machines provisioned from the blueprint use the correct operating system image. To achieve this, you need to create an Image Mapping in VMware Aria Automation. Which of the following steps are required to successfully add an Image Mapping?
- A
Navigate to the Infrastructure > Resources > Image Mappings section in VMware Aria Automation.
- B
Provide a unique name for the Image Mapping and select the appropriate cloud account.
- C
Assign a network profile to the Image Mapping during its creation.
- D
Associate the Image Mapping with a machine image available in the selected cloud account.
- E
Use the Image Mapping directly in a blueprint to provision workloads.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
Image Mappings in VMware Aria Automation are used to link logical names to specific OS images in a cloud account. To create an Image Mapping, you must navigate to the Image Mappings section, provide a unique name, associate it with a cloud account, and map it to an actual machine image available in that account. While Image Mappings may be referenced in blueprints later, this is not part of the creation process.
- A. Correct.
Correct: To create an Image Mapping, you must navigate to the appropriate section (Infrastructure > Resources > Image Mappings) in VMware Aria Automation.
- B. Correct.
Correct: A name and cloud account are required when creating an Image Mapping to identify it and link it to the appropriate infrastructure.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Network profiles are related to networking configurations and are not assigned during Image Mapping creation.
- D. Correct.
Correct: Image Mappings must be associated with a machine image from the selected cloud account to define the OS image for provisioning.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Image Mappings are used in blueprints indirectly by referencing them, but this step is not part of creating the Image Mapping.
