Explanation
Scaling a VMware Cloud Foundation deployment by adding a workload domain involves ensuring that all prerequisites are met, including sufficient NSX-T licenses, compatible ESXi hosts, and available IP addresses in SDDC Manager. These steps ensure the smooth creation and deployment of the new workload domain. Manual configuration of vSAN or pre-deployment of vCenter Server is not required, as these are automated during the process.
- A. Correct.
This is correct. NSX-T is required for networking within a workload domain, and appropriate licensing must be available before deployment.
- B. Correct.
This is correct. ESXi hosts must meet the VMware hardware compatibility guide requirements to ensure a successful deployment.
- C. Incorrect.
This is incorrect. The vSAN datastore is configured automatically during the workload domain creation process; manual configuration is not required.
- D. Correct.
This is correct. SDDC Manager requires sufficient IP addresses to assign for the management components of the new workload domain.
- E. Incorrect.
This is incorrect. vCenter Server for a new workload domain is deployed automatically by SDDC Manager during the workload domain creation process.
