An organization wants to configure a new storage policy based on the following requirements:
Failures to tolerate = FTT 1/RAID-5 (Erasure Coding)
Number of disk stripes per object = 8
IOPS limit for object = 0
Object Space Reservation = Thin provisioning
Flash read cache reservation = 0%
Disable object checksum = No
Force provisioning = No
The administrator creates the policy using storage policy based management and assigns it to a 100GB virtual machine on a 4-node vSAN cluster to test the results of the new storage policy.
How many components will be created per host for the storage objects of the virtual machine on the vSAN datastore?
A. 2
B. 1
C. 8
D. 32
Answer : C
A 100GB object using a storage policy with RAID-5 and a stripe width of 8 would result in an object distributed across 4 hosts totaling 8 components.
