Question

An 8-Node vSAN Stretched Cluster (4+4+1) with a single disk group has a policy with PFTT=1 (mirrored across sites) and SFTT=1/FTM Mirroring (Local Protection) configured. The administrator has been alerted that there is a problem with the cluster. The following has been observed:

  • The vSAN Witness Host is offline.
  • Two disk failures on two hosts have occurred in the preferred site.

This has resulted in a critical production virtual machine's vmdk becoming inaccessible. Which step needs to be performed by the administrator to resolve the issue?

Options

  • AReplace all failed disks on the preferred site.
  • BReplace the vSAN Witness Host
  • CReplace access to the existing vSAN Witness Host
  • DReplace only one failed disk on the preferred site.
