VMware Exam 2V0-17.25 Topic 2 Question 5 Discussion

Actual exam question for VMware's 2V0-17.25 exam
Question #: 5
Topic #: 2
[All 2V0-17.25 Questions]

An administrator of a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) fleet is tasked to delegate the resource management of a group of Virtual Machines (VMs) to another department. The following information is provided:

VMs should power on only if resources are available.

The VMs are within development and production environments.

The production VMs require guaranteed levels of resources.

The VMs support a three-tier application within each environment.

Each tier of the application has varying levels of demand.

What VCF feature should the administrator use to manage these VMs?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The vSphere 9.0 Resource Management documentation, included within VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0, specifies that Resource Pools are the mechanism to delegate compute resources within a cluster. A resource pool acts as a container of compute resources (CPU and memory) that can be subdivided and assigned to VMs or groups of VMs.

The documentation states:

''Resource pools provide resource isolation, control, and delegation. You can configure reservations, limits, and shares to ensure that mission-critical workloads (such as production VMs) receive guaranteed resources, while development or test workloads consume only available resources.''

This aligns directly with the requirements:

Power on only if resources are available Achieved via reservations and limits.

Production VMs require guaranteed levels of resources Enforced using reservations.

Three-tier apps with varying demand Controlled using shares and limits across multiple resource pools.

Other options are incorrect:

vSphere Availability (A) provides failover, not resource governance.

VCF Operations (B) monitors resource usage but does not allocate or enforce it.

Dynamic Resource Scheduling (D) balances workloads but does not provide delegated, guaranteed allocations per department or application tier.

Thus, the correct feature is vSphere Resource Pools.

I think we might need to use vSphere Resource Pools since they allow us to allocate resources based on the needs of different VMs, especially with the varying demands of the application tiers.

I'm a bit unsure on this one. The question mentions a three-tier application, so I'm wondering if B) VCF Operations might be the best option, as it could help manage the resources across the different tiers. But I'm not 100% sure, so I'll have to think about it some more.

I'm pretty confident that C) vSphere Resource Pools is the way to go here. It allows you to set up resource allocations for different groups of VMs, which is exactly what we need to manage the development and production environments separately.

Okay, let's think this through. The question says the VMs should only power on if resources are available, and the production VMs need guaranteed resources. That sounds like we need some kind of resource management feature. I'm leaning towards D) vSphere Dynamic Resource Scheduling, as that seems to fit the requirements.

Hmm, this seems tricky. I'm not sure if I fully understand the requirements. Do the development VMs also need guaranteed resources, or just the production ones? I'm a bit confused on how to approach this.

I think the key here is managing the resources for the different environments. The production VMs need guaranteed resources, so I'd go with C) vSphere Resource Pools to ensure they get the resources they need.
