Actual exam question for VMware's 5V0-21.21 exam

Question #: 61
Topic #: 8

An architect is currently working with a customer to transform their existing ESXi hosts to vSAN nodes. The customer expressed the following requirements.

* First phase will transform 50% of the hosts to a hybrid vSAN nodes.

* Second phase will transform the remaining 50% hosts to an All-Flash vSAN nodes.

The following constraint exists:

* Each host has a 4-port x 1 GbE network interface.

Which two recommendations should the architect make to align with the customer's requirements? (Choose two.)

AHybrid vSAN clusters can have shared 1 GbE network adapters.

BAll-Flash vSAN clusters must have dedicated 10 GbE network adapters.

CHybrid vSAN clusters must have dedicated 1 GbE network adapters.

DAll-Flash vSAN clusters can have shared 10 GbE network adapters.

EHybrid vSAN clusters must have dedicated 10 GbE network adapters.

Haha, shared 10 GbE for All-Flash vSAN? What is this, the '90s? I'm with the others, B and C are the way to go. No compromise on networking for these high-performance setups.

Hold on, did you say 'shared' 1 GbE for Hybrid vSAN? That's gotta be a joke, right? We're not living in the stone age anymore. B and C all the way!

Shared 1 GbE for Hybrid vSAN? That's outdated. B and C are the way to go.

Yes, I think option B would be the best choice for the All-Flash nodes to ensure optimal performance.

But what about the All-Flash vSAN nodes? Shouldn't they have dedicated 10 GbE network adapters?

I agree with Mose, shared 1 GbE network adapters would be cost-effective for the hybrid nodes.

I think B and C are the correct answers. Hybrid vSAN requires dedicated 1 GbE, and All-Flash vSAN needs dedicated 10 GbE. Anything else would be suboptimal performance.
