An administrator enables High Availability (HA) on a Virtual SAN cluster.
There are four vmkernel port groups with the following IP addresses assigned: Management: 192.168.12.10 vMotion: 192.168.13.10 Virtual SAN: 192.168.14.10 Fault TolerancE. 192.168.15.10
Which IP address will HA use for traffic?
A. 192.168.12.10
B. 192.168.13.10
C. 192.168.14.10
D. 192.168.15.10
Correct Answer: C
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Give the VMKernel port a label (e.g. iSCSI – if it will purley be used for iSCSI).
Enter the VLAN ID if the pNICs connected to the vSwitch are trunk ports and you have a specific VLAN for this traffic (e.g. a dedicated storage VLAN).
Now if the port will only be used for storage services (iSCSI and NFS),.
If the port will be used for all VMkernel services (iSCSI, NFS, vMotion and FT), tick the additional boxes to allow this port to be used also for those services, Assigned the FT (IP Address)
Clustering is configured to give you, the administrator of an environment, a form of fault tolerance, and VMware has taken this concept to a whole other level.
Although VMware does not call FT clustering, it functions the same in that FT will failover the primary virtual machine to a secondary virtual machine. VMware Fault
Tolerance (FT) is based on vLockstep technology and provides zero downtime, zero data loss, and continuous availability for your applications.
Next,
• Always assign a reasonably high relative share for the Fault Tolerance resource pool because FT is a very latency-sensitive traffic type.
