The correct answer is D. Create a new storage pool then rebalance the capacity across the cluster. In vSAN using Storage Pools (ESA architecture), each pool can contain a defined number of devices. Since the current pool already has 7 devices per host, adding more disks requires creating a new storage pool to utilize the additional devices. After creating the new pool, a…

Question

A vSAN administrator has received a provisioning request, which will require increasing the vSAN cluster capacity by 25%. Knowing Storage Pools is being used, with 7 devices per ESXi host. What must the vSAN administrator do once the additional devices are received?

Options

  • AAdd the devices directly to the storage pool and vSAN will automatically rebalance
  • BCreate a new disk group because the limit of 7 devices has been reached
  • CAdd the devices to the storage pool and schedule a maintenance window for rebalancing
  • DCreate a new storage pool then rebalance the capacity across the cluster

Explanation

In vSAN using Storage Pools (ESA architecture), each pool can contain a defined number of devices. Since the current pool already has 7 devices per host, adding more disks requires creating a new storage pool to utilize the additional devices. After creating the new pool, a rebalance operation should be performed so vSAN can evenly distribute data and fully utilize the new capacity while maintaining optimal performance and space efficiency.
