Which two reasons would prevent Storage Distributed Resource Scheduler (SDRS) from operating on a datastore? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. The datastore has Storage I/O Control disabled. B. The datastore is connected to an unsupported host.. SDRS requires Storage I/O Control to be enabled and all connected hosts to be supported in order to manage a datastore cluster.

Which two reasons would prevent Storage Distributed Resource Scheduler (SDRS) from operating on a datastore? (Choose two.)

Options

  • AThe datastore has Storage I/O Control disabled.

  • DThe datastore is hosted on an iSCSI server.

Why each option

SDRS requires Storage I/O Control to be enabled and all connected hosts to be supported in order to manage a datastore cluster.

AThe datastore has Storage I/O Control disabled.Correct

SDRS uses Storage I/O Control (SIOC) to measure and balance I/O load across datastores. If SIOC is disabled on a datastore, SDRS cannot collect the latency and throughput statistics it needs, preventing I/O-based load balancing recommendations.

BThe datastore is connected to an unsupported host.Correct

SDRS requires that every host connected to a datastore in a datastore cluster be a supported host version. An unsupported or incompatible host prevents SDRS from managing migrations and recommendations for that datastore.

CThe datastore is hosted on an NFS server.

SDRS supports NFS datastores, so hosting a datastore on an NFS server does not prevent SDRS from operating on it.

DThe datastore is hosted on an iSCSI server.

SDRS supports iSCSI-based datastores, so an iSCSI-hosted datastore is fully compatible with SDRS operation.
