Passing Score –
VMware exams are scaled on a range from 100-500, with the determined raw cut score scaled to a value of 300. Your exam may contain unscored questions in addition to the scored questions, this is a standard testing practice. You will not know which questions are unscored, your exam results will reflect your performance on the scored questions only.

Minimally Qualified Candidate
The Minimally Qualified Candidate (MQC) has 6-12 months hands-on experience installing, configuring, and managing VMware Cloud Foundation. The MQC also has experience in deployment and administration of guest operating systems on
a VMware Cloud Foundation infrastructure. The Minimally Qualified candidate shows intermediate knowledge in: networking including core switching and routing concepts, hardware, monitoring and troubleshooting, and security
concept knowledge including certificates. The MQC also possesses basic business continuity and disaster discovery knowledge, basic understanding of workload platform capabilities including use cases and Kubernetes constructs and
basic knowledge of vRealize Suite. Candidates should have completed all recommended training courses for this credential and hold a VCP-DCV 2020,2021 or 2022. The successful candidate will likely hold additional industry-recognized IT

In addition to the recommended courses, item writers used the following references for information when writing exam
questions. It is recommended that you study the reference content as you prepare to take the exam, in addition to the recommended training.

QUESTION 1
An administrator needs additional capacity on a vSAN cluster. Each host currently has only one disk group. Which two approaches can be used to expand storage capacity in this situation? (Choose two.)

A. Increase the number of cache disks in the existing disk group.
B. Add an additional disk group.
C. Disable compression.
D. Increase the number of capacity disks in the existing disk group
E. Disable deduplication.


Answer: BD
To expand storage capacity in a vSAN cluster with one disk group, you can either add more drives to
hosts in the cluster, which is commonly referred to as scaling up, or add capacity drives to existing disk groups
Option B: Add an additional disk group – According to search result [1], adding additional drives to a
host will increase both capacity and performance [1], and each disk group contains one flash cache
device and one or multiple capacity devices for persistent storage [2]. Therefore, adding an
additional disk group to each host would increase the storage capacity of the vSAN cluster.
Option D: Increase the number of capacity disks in the existing disk group – Search result [1] explains
that vSAN clusters require capacity and cache devices to function, and each disk group can contain
multiple capacity devices for persistent storage [2]. Thus, an additional way to expand storage
capacity in the vSAN cluster would be to increase the number of capacity disks in the existing disk group.

Reference: 1: VMware vSAN documentation 2: VMware vSAN documentation
A disk group is a collection of one or more flash-based cache devices and one or more capacity
devices that provide storage capacity for a vSAN cluster. A vSAN cluster can have multiple disk
groups, and each disk group can have a different configuration.
To expand storage capacity in a vSAN cluster where each host currently has only one disk group, the
administrator can add an additional disk group or increase the number of capacity disks in the existing disk group.
Adding an additional disk group involves adding more disks to the host and creating a new disk
group. This approach can provide additional capacity and performance benefits, as the new disk
group can be configured with different settings to optimize performance and capacity.
Increasing the number of capacity disks in the existing disk group involves adding more capacity
devices to the existing disk group. This approach can provide additional capacity, but may not
necessarily provide performance benefits as the existing disk group may already be fully utilized.


QUESTION 2

A VCF architect collected the following requirements when designing the expansion of a new VI
Workload Domain with twenty four vSAN Ready nodes, each with a dual-port 25Gbps network interface card:
Provide scalable high-performance networking with layer-3 termination at top-of-rack
Protect workloads from switch/NIC/rack failure
Provide isolation for DMZ workloads
Provide at-least 25Gbps dedicated bandwidth to backup traffic
Easily accept workloads on traditional VLAN-backed networks
Fully-supported by VMware
Which three design considerations meet all of these requirements? (Choose three.)

A. Two-node Edge Cluster with ECMP
B. Spine and Leaf network topology with layer-3 at Spine
C. Stretched Clustering
D. Spine and Leaf network topology with layer-3 at top of rack
E. Two-node Edge Cluster with BFD
F. Core Aggregation network topology

Answer: BDF

Option B: Spine and Leaf network topology with layer-3 at Spine – A spine and leaf network topology
is designed for high scalability and performance, and layer-3 at the spine ensures that there is no
single point of failure for the layer-3 termination. This meets several of the requirements, including
scalable high-performance networking with layer-3 termination at top-of-rack, protecting workloads
from switch/NIC/rack failure, and providing isolation for DMZ workloads.

Option D: Spine and Leaf network topology with layer-3 at top of rack – Similar to Option B, this
topology also provides high scalability and performance, and layer-3 at the top of rack meets the
requirement for layer-3 termination at top-of-rack.

Option F: Core Aggregation network topology – This topology provides a highly available, redundant
core switch for aggregation and routing, which meets the requirement for protecting workloads from
switch/NIC/rack failure.

Based on the given choices, the correct answers would be B, D, and F.

QUESTION 3
An administrator has registered an external identity source in a consolidated architecture and would
like to make sure that any subsequent workload domains can be accessed using the same identity sources.
How can this goal be achieved with VMware Cloud Foundation?
