A new real-time financial service application is being developed by the engineering team at a financial firm and will be released as a public Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering. The solutions architect has designed and deployed a new vSphere environment and the supporting network infrastructure for hosting all public services. ESXi hosts are configured to use Precision Time Proalhazi@1tocol (PTP) and a local stratum-1 network time server.
Application provisioning and scaling will be managed by VMware vRealize Automation and can be run on Microsoft Windows or multiple distributions of Linux.
Which three recommendations should the architect include in the design to ensure that the service maintain timekeeping within an accuracy of one second? (Choose three.)

QUESTION 19
Which of the listed requirements would be classified as a recoverability non-functional requirement?

QUESTION 20
Which design decision must be included in a design to allow for the deployment of a minimum supported configuration of vCenter High Availability (HA)?

QUESTION 21
An architect is reviewing a physical storage design. The customer has specified that a new active-passive based storage array will be used to provide storage for the vSphere clusters.
Which configuration should for the architect recommended?

QUESTION 22
An architect is designing a vSphere environment for a customer and learns that the customer has:
A single vSphere cluster
Two storage arrays with different RAID capabilities
Which two design decisions should the architect make to maximize data availability and data performance for this customer? (Choose two.)

QUESTION 23
A customer requests a review of its current vSphere platform design.
The following information is noted:
There are three different workload profiles for the virtual machines:
Tier-1 virtual machines operate resource-intensive applications and require dedicated allocations for CPU and RAM.
Tier-2 virtual machines operate internet-facing applications and require access to externally facing networks.
Tier-3 virtual machines operate platform management tools such as vCenter Server and have different lifecycle management requirements.
Tier-1, Tier-2 and Tier-3 virtual machines are all hosted on a single large vSphere cluster.
The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has raised concerns that hosting externally facing applications alongside management tools does not meet internal compliance standards.
The Operations team has raised concerns about Tier-1 virtual machines negatively impacting the performance of vCenter Server.
The Operations lead has stated that management changes have consistently been rejected by application teams.
As a result of the review, which recommendation should the architect make regarding the design of this platform?

QUESTION 24
An architect is designing a VMware solution for a customer based on the following information:
The solution must use investments in existing storage array that supports both block and file storage.
The solution must support the ability to migrate workloads between hosts within a cluster.
The solution must support resource management priorities.
The solution must support the ability to connect virtual machines directly to LUNs.
The solution should use existing IPv4 based network infrastructure.
There is no budget for additional physical hardware.
Which two design decisions could the architect make to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

QUESTION 25
An architect is preparing a design for a customer. Based on requirements, the architect recommends an HCI- based infrastructure with all-flash architecture. During the assessment, it is confirmed that the network throughput generated by virtual machines does not exceed 150 Mb/s.
What is the minimum number and type of network adapters in each server that the architect can recommend to ensure requirements are met and there is no single point of failure?

QUESTION 26
An architect is finalizing the design for a new vCenter Server High Availability deployment.
What is one thing the architect must document in the design?

QUESTION 27
During a requirements gathering workshop to design a physical to virtual migration, the customer provides the following information:
* There is no physical firewall in the data center with no anticipated plans for a future network refresh.
* Leveraging the virtual infrastructure to mitigate the lack of network security must be addressed in the design.
* All physical servers to be migrated exist on the same VLAN.
Which recommendation should the architect make to address the customer requirement with regard to virtual networking?

QUESTION 28
An architect is designing an environment for a retail customer. The design will use a single small vCenter Server Appliance and a cluster of eight ESXi hosts at a remote site. There is a single 10 GbE connected network at the remote site to support all management services. It is not possible to create additional management networks at the remote site. Virtual machine backups at the site will be dependent on the vCenter Server being available.
Which design decision should the architect make to maximize availability for backups?
