The correct answer is A. Use automated placement rules to keep the mission-critical application virtual machines apart. E. Create a cluster with six hosts. Automated placement rules that separate mission-critical VMs ensure N+1 availability by preventing a single host failure from impacting all critical workloads. Creating a cluster with six hosts provides the required N+1 redundancy while minimizing excess hardware investment.

Question

An architect is planning resources for a new cluster that will be part of an existing workload domain. The new cluster will provide resources for a number of new workloads, including a mission-critical application consisting of five resource-intensive virtual machines. The following requirements were provided for the new cluster:

  • The solution must ensure that the new workload cluster meets the

company's availability standard of N+l.

  • The solution must minimize the overall investment in hardware.

Which two design recommendations should the architect make to meet the stated requirements? (Choose two.)

Options

  • AUse automated placement rules to keep the mission-critical application virtual machines apart.
  • BCreate a cluster with five hosts.
  • CUse automated placement rules to keep the mission-critical application virtual machines together.
  • DUse resource pools to prioritize resource for the mission-critical application virtual machines.
  • ECreate a cluster with six hosts.

Explanation

Automated placement rules that separate mission-critical VMs ensure N+1 availability by preventing a single host failure from impacting all critical workloads. Creating a cluster with six hosts provides the required N+1 redundancy while minimizing excess hardware investment.
