Question #: 43
Topic #: 6

An organization plans to implement a new vSAN 8.0 cluster to take advantage of the new features around improved I/O flow, better resiliency, and more efficient disk usage. The vSAN ReadyNodes available for the cluster consist of eight NVMe disks.

How should the organization configure the disk layout?

AUse vSAN OSA and create two disk groups with one cache disk and three capacity disks each

BUse vSAN ESA and the new Storage pool configuration where all disks contribute to capacity

CUse vSAN OSA and the new Storage pool configuration where all disks contribute to capacity

DUse vSAN ESA and create two disk groups with one cache disk and three capacity disks each

Two disk groups with cache and capacity disks is a solid choice!

Wait, can all disks really contribute to capacity in ESA? Sounds too good to be true.

I recall that using two disk groups with cache and capacity disks was a common practice, but I’m unsure if that applies to this new vSAN version.

I practiced a similar question where OSA was recommended for specific setups, but I feel like ESA might be the way to go here with the new features.

I think using vSAN ESA makes sense since it allows all disks to contribute to capacity, but I’m not entirely confident about the disk group configurations.

I remember studying the differences between OSA and ESA, but I’m not sure which one is better for this scenario.

I've got this! The question is asking about the disk layout, and the new vSAN 8.0 features mention improved I/O flow and efficient disk usage. I'm going with option B - using vSAN ESA and the Storage pool configuration.

Okay, the key here is understanding the new Storage pool configuration in vSAN 8.0. I think option C might be the way to go, but I'll double-check the details to be sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the differences between vSAN OSA and ESA. I'll need to refresh my memory on those before I can confidently select the right option.

This looks like a straightforward vSAN configuration question. I'll need to carefully review the new vSAN 8.0 features and disk layout options to determine the best approach.

Who needs disk groups when you've got Storage pools? B is the way to go, hands down. Simplicity is key, my friends.

Hold up, is this a trick question? If I had eight NVMe disks, I'd totally go for the option that uses all of them! B looks like the winner to me.

Option B is the way to go! The new Storage pool configuration in vSAN 8.0 is perfect for this scenario. Less complexity and better disk utilization - sign me up!
