VMware vSphere Replication protects virtual machines from partial or complete site failures by replicating the virtual machines between which three sites? (Choose three.)

The correct answer is A. From a source site to a target site. B. From within a single site from one cluster to another. C. From multiple source sites to a shared remote target site. vSphere Replication officially supports three topologies: standard source-to-target, intra-site cluster-to-cluster, and multiple source sites converging on a shared remote target.

Why each option

vSphere Replication officially supports three topologies: standard source-to-target, intra-site cluster-to-cluster, and multiple source sites converging on a shared remote target.

AFrom a source site to a target site.Correct

Standard source-to-target replication is the foundational vSphere Replication topology, where VMs at a primary site are continuously replicated to a recovery site managed by a vSphere Replication Appliance.

BFrom within a single site from one cluster to another.Correct

vSphere Replication supports intra-site replication, allowing VMs to replicate from one cluster to a separate cluster within the same physical location, protecting against cluster-level failures.

CFrom multiple source sites to a shared remote target site.Correct

The fan-in topology is a supported configuration where multiple geographically distributed source sites replicate into a single shared remote target site, consolidating recovery resources.

DFrom a single source site to multiple remote target sites.

vSphere Replication does not support a fan-out topology where a single source site replicates to multiple independent remote targets simultaneously.

EFrom multiple source sites to multiple remote target sites.

Replicating from multiple source sites to multiple distinct remote target sites is not a supported vSphere Replication deployment topology.

Concept tested: vSphere Replication supported site replication topologies
