(Choose two.)
a) Resyncs are running
b) Data evacuation is complete
c) Performance Service is disabled
d) Encryption is disabled
e) ESXi host is in maintenance mode
04. A vSAN administrator is using the vSAN ReadyNode Sizer to build a new environment. While entering the cluster configurations, a fellow colleagues inquire about the Operations Reserve option. What is the purpose of using this option?
a) Configures space for external operations
b) Provides space for internal operations
c) Reserves space for tolerating failures

(Choose two.)
a) DRS is relocating VMs between vSAN nodes.
b) HA Virtual Machine Monitoring forced a VM to reboot.
c) A host failure occurs in the cluster.
d) A change to the storage policy is applied to the objects.
e) A VM snapshot is being deleted.
06. A vSAN administrator is receiving complaints that applications are not performing as expected. The vSAN administrator opens the vSAN cluster performance charts to try to identify the issue, but the vSAN cluster performance charts are not available.
Which option should vSAN administrator enable to make these charts available?
a) vSAN Performance Diagnostics
b) vSAN Troubleshooting Diagnostics
c) vSAN Performance Service
d) vSAN Troubleshooting Service
07. What are two purposes of a vSAN storage policy?
(Choose two.)
a) To determine vSAN encryption level
b) To enable TRIM/UNMAP
c) To define how the VM storage objects are provisioned
d) To guarantee the required level of service
e) To enable deduplication and compression
08. The objects on a 4-node vSAN cluster are assigned a RAID-5 policy. A network outage occurs, causing host one to lose connectivity with the rest of the cluster. Seventy-five minutes have elapsed. What is the health state of the objects?
a) Reduced availability with no rebuild
b) Non-availability related incompliance (non-compliance)
c) Reduced availability
d) Reduced availability with no rebuild – delay timer
09. A vSAN administrator is troubleshooting poor performance of vSAN cluster while vCenter is not available. The vSAN administrator decides to use a command line tool to monitor real-time vSAN IOPS, throughput, and other metrics on ESXi host.
Which command line tool should be used?
a) vimtop
b) esxcli
c) esxcfg
d) vsantop
10. Which two actions are recommended when adding a host to a vSAN cluster?
(Choose two.)
a) Disable vSphere High Availability (HA).
b) Create uniformly-configured hosts.
c) Reference the VMware Compatibility Guide.
d) Disable vSphere Cluster Services (vCLS).
e) Disable vSAN performance service.
