VCP-CMA 2024 Question 73
Select 4An administrator is tasked with creating flavor mappings in VMware Aria Automation to standardize compute resource configurations across multiple cloud providers. The administrator needs to ensure that a new flavor mapping named 'Small' is created with the following specifications:
- 2 vCPUs
- 4 GB of memory
Which steps should the administrator follow to successfully create and configure the 'Small' flavor mapping?
- A
Navigate to the Infrastructure -> Configure -> Flavor Mappings section in VMware Aria Automation.
- B
Click 'Add Flavor Mapping', specify the name as 'Small' and enter the vCPU and memory values.
- C
Assign a tag to the flavor mapping for appropriate policy binding.
- D
Publish the flavor mapping to the Content Library for consumption by end users.
- E
Map the 'Small' flavor mapping to the required cloud templates or machine types.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, C, E
Explanation
To create a flavor mapping like 'Small' in VMware Aria Automation, the administrator must navigate to the Flavor Mappings section, define the configuration (name, vCPUs, and memory), and optionally assign tags to enable policy-based management. Once created, the flavor mapping must be mapped to the appropriate cloud templates or machine types to ensure it is available for deployments. Publishing to the Content Library is not a valid step in this process.
- A. Correct.
Correct. The first step in creating a flavor mapping is navigating to the Flavor Mappings section under Infrastructure -> Configure in VMware Aria Automation.
- B. Correct.
Correct. The administrator needs to define the flavor mapping name ('Small') and specify the vCPU and memory values (2 vCPUs, 4 GB of memory).
- C. Correct.
Correct. Assigning a tag ensures that the flavor mapping can be used in policies and applied during deployments.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Flavor mappings are not published to the Content Library; they are directly used within cloud templates or machine configurations.
- E. Correct.
Correct. Once the flavor mapping is created, it must be mapped to the appropriate cloud templates or machine types to be used during provisioning.
