VMware 5V0-31.23 Exam - Topic 4 Question 29 Discussion

Posted by Theola on May 29, 2026 at 03:56 AM

An administrator is planning to upgrade an existing VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) environment:

* 2 VCF instances across 2 sites

* NSX Federated environment

* 1 VMware Cloud Director instance at each site

* Aria suite at each site

Which three components can be upgraded as part of the VCF automated lifecycle management via SDDC manager? (Choose three.)

Suggested Answer: A, B, C

In a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) environment, SDDC Manager automates the lifecycle management of key infrastructure components. The components that can be upgraded through SDDC Manager's automated lifecycle management include:

1. VMware ESXi Hosts: SDDC Manager can manage and automate the upgrade of ESXi hosts across the VCF environment.

2. VMware NSX Local Managers: Local NSX Managers at each site are managed and upgraded by SDDC Manager as part of the VCF lifecycle management.

3. VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle: The Aria Suite Lifecycle (formerly vRealize Suite Lifecycle) can also be upgraded via SDDC Manager to maintain compatibility with VCF.
