An administrator has deployed a vRealize Operations (vROps) cluster in a Continuous Availability configuration across the two racks in two fault domains. Following a network outage that occurred for several minutes, the administrator has been tasked to ensure that the vROps deployment is still healthy. They have noted that one cluster can still contact the witness node. Which two events will occur as a result of the outage? (Choose two.)
Correct Answer: C,D
Question 67
When Workload Planning is performed, it returns that an existing cluster does not have the capacity to accommodate the selected virtual machines. Which alternative is offered by default?
Correct Answer: A
The alternative that is offered by default when Workload Planning returns that an existing cluster does not have the capacity to accommodate the selected virtual machines is cost comparisons for running in hybrid/private/public cloud. Workload Planning is a feature ofvRealize Operations that allows the administrator to plan and optimize the workload placement and capacity of the vSphere resources in the environment1. Workload Planning can be performed using two scenarios: Workload Optimization and What-If Analysis. Workload Optimization is a scenario that automatically balances the workload across the clusters and datastores based on the business and operational intents, such as performance, consolidation, or compliance2. What-If Analysis is a scenario that simulates the impact of adding or removing workloads, hosts, or datastores, or changing the demand or configuration of the existing workloads3. When Workload Planning is performed using the What-If Analysis scenario, and it returns that an existing cluster does not have the capacity to accommodate the selected virtual machines, the alternative that is offered by default is cost comparisons for running in hybrid/private/public cloud. This alternative allows the administrator to compare the estimated costs of running the selected virtual machines in different cloud platforms, such as VMware Cloud on AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Amazon Web Services, and to choose the best option for the business needs and budget4. Cost options for increasing cluster capacity with additional hosts (option B) is not the alternative that is offered by default, but it is another option that can be selected by the administrator. This option allows the administrator to estimate the costs of adding new hosts to the existing cluster, and to choose the best host model and quantity for the capacity and performance requirements5. Modifications to virtual machine configuration (option C) and modifications to host configurations (option D) are not alternatives that are offered by Workload Planning, as they are not related to the workload placement and capacity planning. These modifications can be performed using other features of vRealize Operations, such as Reclaimable Waste, Oversized Virtual Machines, or Configuration and Compliance.

Question 69
An administrator is creating a new alert definition. It was decided that this new alert should affect the Risk badge of an object when triggered. Which setting should be configured by the administrator to achieve this goal?
Correct Answer: A
The impact setting of an alert definition determines which badge of an object is affected when the alert is triggered. The impact setting can be one of the following: Health, Risk, or Efficiency. The Health impact indicates that the alert affects the current state of the object and requires immediate attention. The Risk impact indicates that the alert affects the future state of the object and requires proactive action. The Efficiency impact indicates that the alert affects the optimal use of resources by the object and requires optimization. Therefore, to achieve the goal of affecting the Risk badge of an object when the alert is triggered, the administrator should configure the impact setting of the alert definition to Risk.

Question 70
A customer is running a 4-node cluster for their Windows and Linux workloads. To keep the licensing costs at a minimum, the customer only licensed two nodes for Windows and two nodes for Linux within the cluster. Now, the administrator needs to ensure the workloads only run on their assigned nodes. What should an administrator configure to achieve this goal?
Correct Answer: B
According to the VMware vRealize Operations User Guide1, business intent is a feature that allows the administrator to define the desired state and behavior of the clusters and hosts in the environment based on business objectives and constraints. Business intent can be used to optimize the placement and balance of workloads across clusters and hosts, as well as to enforce license compliance and availability requirements. One of the types of business intent that can be configured in vRealize Operations is Business Intent - Clusters. This type of business intent allows the administrator to assign tags to clusters and virtual machines, and then create rules that match the tags to ensure that the virtual machines are placed on the appropriate clusters. For example, the administrator can tag two clusters as Windows and two clusters as Linux, and then tag the virtual machines accordingly. Then, the administrator can create rules that match the Windows tag and the Linux tag, and set the enforcement mode to Mandatory. This will ensure that the Windows workloads only run on the Windows clusters, and the Linux workloads only run on the Linux clusters. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Business Intent - Clusters, as this is the type of business intent that should be configured by the administrator to achieve the goal of ensuring the workloads only run on their assigned nodes.
