2V0-622D Question #142: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is B: A management and heartbeat network must be create and configured. vCenter HA requires a dedicated heartbeat network with static IP addresses assigned to all three nodes (active, passive, and witness) to ensure reliable failover.
Question
Which are two requirements for configuring vCenter HA? (Choose two)
Options
- AA secondary NIC on the active node must be create and configured
- BA management and heartbeat network must be create and configured
- CA default gateway entry must be added for the cluster network
- DAll components must be on the same subnet as the management network
- EThe network IP addresses for the active, passive, and witness nodes must be static
Explanation
vCenter HA requires a dedicated heartbeat network with static IP addresses assigned to all three nodes (active, passive, and witness) to ensure reliable failover.
Common mistakes.
- A. The HA network is configured as a port group on an existing NIC or can share the management NIC using a dedicated port group; a physically separate secondary NIC is not strictly required by the vCenter HA specification.
- C. A default gateway for the dedicated cluster/heartbeat network is not required; the HA network is typically a private, isolated network between nodes and does not need external routing.
- D. The vCenter HA nodes' HA interfaces are intentionally placed on a separate, isolated network from the management network; requiring all components on the same management subnet contradicts the recommended architecture.
