5V0-31.22 VMware Cloud Foundation Specialist (v2) Questions and Answers

This is because according to VMware documentation, this is the ideal design of VMware Cloud Foundation domains that the architect should recommend based on the Bill of Material for different vSAN ready nodes. This design can provide optimal performance and availability by using vSAN ready nodes with different disk group configurations for different domains based on their workload characteristics and requirements. The management domain can use vSAN ready nodes with one disk group per node to provide sufficient capacity and redundancy for management components such as vCenter Server and NSX Manager. The workload domains can use vSAN ready nodes with two disk groups per node to provide higher performance and throughput for VI workloads such as VMs and containers.

To change the password of the SDDC Manager super user account, the administrator should follow these steps:

• Log in to the SDDC Manager UI as a user with the ADMIN role.
• Go to Administration > Security > Password Management.
• Select the SDDC Manager account from the component drop-down menu.
• Click Rotate Now button.

This is the recommended method for changing the password of the SDDC Manager super user account, as documented in the VMware Cloud Foundation Administration Guide:https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Cloud-Foundation/index.html

This is because according to VMware documentation2, these are some of the components that are configured as part of the Supervisor Cluster control plane after enabling Workload Management on a VMware Cloud Foundation Workload Domain:

• Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Service: This service enables you to create and manage Tanzu Kubernetes clusters on vSphere with Tanzu.
• Kubernetes Grid Orchestrator: This component manages the lifecycle of Tanzu Kubernetes clusters on vSphere with Tanzu.
• Spherelet: This component runs on each ESXi host and acts as a kubelet agent that communicates with the Supervisor Cluster control plane.

According to the VMware documentation, each NSX-T Local Manager is associated with a vCenter Server, and each NSX-T Local Manager can manage up to three vCenters. In a VCF deployment with two environments (PROD and DEV) and two different hardware server types in PROD, there would be a total of three vCenter Servers. Therefore, a total of three NSX-T Local Managers would be provisioned to manage the three vCenter Servers.

This is because according to VMware documentation1, the VMware Imaging Appliance (VIA) is a tool that automates ESXi host imaging and configuration for VCF deployments. It supports custom ESXi images that include additional drivers or VIBs that are not part of the base ESXi image2. You can download ESXi software and VIBs from VMware or third-party sources and upload them to VIA for creating custom images3.

These are NSX components that are automated during this deployment of an edge cluster in a VMware Cloud Foundation environment according to VMware documentation. Tier-0 and Tier-1 gateway configuration is automated by creating a default Tier-0 gateway with two uplinks and a default Tier-1 gateway with one downlink when deploying an edge cluster. Edge VM deployment is automated by deploying two edge VMs per edge node when deploying an edge cluster. Transport Node Profile configuration is automated by creating a transport node profile with N-VDS settings when deploying an edge cluster.

This is because according to VMware documentation6, when integrating Microsoft Certificate Authority with SDDC Manager, you need to configure basic authentication on the Microsoft Certificate Authority Server and provide valid credentials when establishing a connection from SDDC Manager.
