An architect is designing a new VMware solution for a customer that has a number of different resource profiles.
The following are the business requirements for the design:
The solution must support virtual machines with the following storage profiles:
- Write-intensive
- Backup
- Write-Once-Read-Many (WORM) archive
The solution must support migration of virtual machine disks between storage profiles.
The WORM archive data must be located at an isolated secure site.
The backup storage array must only be connected to a backup media server.
All data should be recoverable from backup.
Which design decision should the architect make to meet the business requirements?

A customer is deploying a new cluster and wants to be able to patch and update two hosts in parallel. The cluster must be able to maintain N+1 resiliency across the remaining hosts while patching activities are performed. The current expected utilization of the platform requires a minimum of two hosts to support all of the virtual machines.
What is the minimum number of hosts the customer will require in the cluster in order to meet the required resiliency level?

What is the purpose of a virtual data center design?

An architect is designing a new vSphere platform to meet a list of requirements from the security team.
Which two requirements would be classified as non-functional requirements? (Choose two.)

An architect is designing a solution based on the following information:
- Each ESXi host has a single physical NIC with two 10 Gbps ports.
- There is a performance-based service-level agreement (SLA) that guarantees 15 Gbps bandwidth for production virtual machines at all times.
- There is no budget to purchase additional hardware.
- The hardware replacement SLA is based on a delivery agreement of two business days.
Which recommendation for the configuration of vSphere High Availability (HA) should the architect include in the design?
