Select 3You are configuring a new VMware Cloud Template in vRealize Automation and need to ensure the template can deploy virtual machines on multiple cloud environments, such as vSphere and AWS. To achieve this, you decide to create and assign appropriate Image Mappings. Which steps are required to successfully add Image Mappings in vRealize Automation?
- A
Navigate to the 'Infrastructure' tab and select 'Image Mappings' under Cloud Zones.
- B
Specify the OS family, such as Linux or Windows, and map it to an appropriate image available in the cloud account.
- C
Create a new cloud zone for each cloud account before creating Image Mappings.
- D
Ensure the mapped image exists in the respective cloud account or region.
- E
Assign the Image Mapping to a project in vRealize Automation to make it available for deployment.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: B, D, E
Explanation
To add Image Mappings in vRealize Automation, you must define the OS family and associate it with an image available in the connected cloud account (e.g., vSphere template or AWS AMI). The mapped image must exist in the cloud account or region to prevent errors during deployment. Finally, the Image Mapping must be assigned to a project to be available for deployments. These steps ensure the successful configuration of Image Mappings for multi-cloud environments.
- A. Incorrect.
Incorrect: While 'Image Mappings' are managed in the 'Infrastructure' section, they are found under 'Configure -> Image Mappings', not under Cloud Zones.
- B. Correct.
Correct: Image Mappings require specifying the OS family and mapping it to an image available in the connected cloud account.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: It is not mandatory to create a new cloud zone for each cloud account to create Image Mappings. Image Mappings are independent of cloud zone creation.
- D. Correct.
Correct: The mapped image must exist in the cloud account or region to ensure successful deployment during provisioning.
- E. Correct.
Correct: Image Mappings must be assigned to a project in vRealize Automation to make them available for use in templates and deployments.
