Question No : 1


An administrator is preparing to import a vSphere environment into VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF)
as a workload domain.
The vSphere environment has the following configuration:
- vSphere version 8.0 update 3.
- Three-node vSAN cluster with a single OSA datastore.
- Two vSphere Distributed Switches (VDS).
- Three vmkernel adapters with DHCP assigned IP addresses.
What change must the administrator make before importing this environment?
A. Consolidate to a single vSphere Distributed Switch.
B. Upgrade vCenter and ESXi to vSphere 9.0.
C. Update the vmkernel adapters with statically assigned IPs.
D. Convert the vSAN datastore from OSA to ESA.

정답: C
Explanation:
When importing an existing vSphere environment into VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) as a workload domain, several strict prerequisites must be met. One of the key requirements documented in VCF 9.0 is that all VMkernel adapters (vmk ports) used for vSAN, vMotion, management, or other system traffic must have statically assigned IP addresses. DHCP-assigned VMkernel IPs are not supported for VCF workload domain bring-up or import operations.
In the provided scenario, the environment includes:
vSphere 8.0 U3
A 3-node vSAN OSA cluster Two VDS switches VMkernel adapters using DHCP
Before VCF can successfully validate and import the environment, the administrator must convert these VMkernel interfaces to static IP addressing. VCF uses IPAM assumptions and deterministic host networking configurations; DHCP introduces variability incompatible with automated lifecycle operations.
Option A (consolidating VDS) is unnecessary―VCF supports multiple VDS configurations during import.
Option B (upgrading to vSphere 9.0) is not required for import.
Option D (convert OSA to ESA) is impossible pre-import and not required―VCF supports OSA clusters.

Question No : 2


An administrator is troubleshooting an issue relating to VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Automation. While troubleshooting, the administrator realizes that debug-level information is not displayed in the VCF Automation Task Log.
How would the Administrator enable debug-level information in the Task Log?

정답:
Explanation:
In VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) 9.0 Automation, the visibility of debug-level information in Task Logs is controlled centrally by the Provider Administrator through the Provider Management portal. Debug logging is not enabled by default because it exposes verbose operational details intended primarily for troubleshooting. According to the VCF Automation architecture and operations model, advanced logging capabilities―including debug output―are gated behind feature flags.
To enable debug-level information, the Provider Admin must navigate to:
Provider Management → Administration → Feature Flags → Display Debug Information
Once this flag is enabled, the system begins emitting additional diagnostic detail into Task Logs, improving insight into failures, orchestration flows, API calls, and service-to-service interactions. This aligns with VCF’s multi-tenant design, where only the Provider tier has permission to modify global
settings that affect all Organizations.
Options A, C, and D are incorrect because Organization-level settings do not control system-wide logging, and the Events/Tasks or General Settings sections do not contain the mechanism for enabling debug output. Only the Feature Flag section controls this capability.

Question No : 3


An administrator is asked to create a second provider gateway (provider gateway 02) in VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Automation Region-A.
After launching the Create Provider Gateway workflow in the VCF Automation Provider Management Portal, no Tier-0 Gateway is available for assignment.
How would you resolve this issue?
A. Create a new Region.
B. Log into the NSX Manager, create a new Tier-1 Gateway.
C. Log into the NSX Manager, create a new TO Gateway.
D. Retry the Create Provider Gateway workflow.

정답: C
Explanation:
In VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0, a Provider Gateway in VCF Automation is always backed by an existing Tier-0 or Tier-0 VRF gateway in NSX. When the administrator launches the Create Provider Gateway workflow and no Tier-0 gateways appear for assignment, this indicates that VCF Automation cannot discover any valid Tier-0 gateways in the associated region.
The VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 documentation explicitly states that before adding a Provider Gateway, an administrator must first create an Active-Standby Tier-0 Gateway in NSX Manager. The Provider Gateway workflow only lists Tier-0 gateways that already exist and are properly configured in NSX. If none are present, the list will be empty.
From the documentation: “To add a provider gateway, first you must create an Active Standby tier-0 gateway in the NSX Manager associated with the region to back it.”. Provider gateways in VCF Automation are discovered from these preexisting Tier-0 gateways and cannot be created until they exist.
Creating a Tier-1 gateway (Option B) does not satisfy the requirement because Provider Gateways must map specifically to Tier-0, not Tier-1. Retrying the workflow (Option D) will not resolve the issue because the Tier-0 backing resource is missing. Creating a new region (Option A) is unnecessary unless required for other organizational reasons, and it still would not produce a Tier-0 gateway.
Therefore, the correct and verified solution is to log in to NSX Manager and create the required Tier-0 gateway, after which it will appear in the Provider Gateway creation workflow.

Question No : 4


A VMware NSX Edge node is present in the inventory but shows "Not Ready" status In NSX Manager UI.
What should the administrator check first?

정답:
Explanation:
The status "Node Not Ready" in the NSX Manager UI (specifically in the Configuration State column of the Edge Transport Nodes view) indicates that the NSX Manager has failed to push or validate the necessary configuration to the Edge VM.
Check Uplink Network Configuration (Option C): This is the most common cause for a "Node Not Ready" state during deployment or operation. For an Edge Node to be "Ready" (Success/Up), it must have a valid Transport Node configuration, which includes the Uplink Profile, IP Pool (for TEPs), and mapping to the Fastpath Interfaces (N-VDS). If the uplink configuration is missing, incorrect, or the management plane cannot communicate with the edge to apply it, the node remains in a "Not Ready" state.
Why not Option A? While an Edge must be in an Edge Cluster to be utilized by a Tier-0 Gateway, a standalone Edge Node should still report a status of "Success" (Configuration) and "Up" (Node Status) if it is healthy. Adding a "Not Ready" (unhealthy/unconfigured) node to a cluster will not fix the underlying configuration issue.
Why not Option D? Missing CPU reservations typically lead to a "Degraded" status or service crashes (Dataplane down), but "Node Not Ready" is the specific indicator of an incomplete or stalled configuration workflow, usually tied to the transport/uplink setup.

Question No : 5


An administrator has been tasked with deploying a new workload domain consisting of six VMware ESX hosts with VMware vSAN into an existing VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) instance. After starting the deployment from VCF Operations, they discover that only four of the six hosts required are listed for selection in the UI. The administrator checks the Unassigned Host Inventory view in the vSphere Client and confirms that all six hosts are listed.
Which step should the administrator perform to identify why the two hosts are not available for selection?

정답:
Explanation:
When deploying a new workload domain in VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), only ESXi hosts that fully meet all pre-requisites are displayed in the VCF Operations UI for selection. Although all six hosts appear in the Unassigned Host Inventory in vCenter, VCF performs additional validation before making them selectable for workload domain deployment.
One of the mandatory requirements for any vSAN-enabled workload domain is that the ESXi hosts must be associated with a Network Pool configured for vSAN traffic. A network pool defines the host network configuration (VLANs, MTU, NIC mapping) used during domain deployment.
If the two missing hosts are associated with a network pool that does not have vSAN traffic enabled, or are associated with no network pool at all, VCF will exclude them from the workload domain deployment wizard. This is documented behavior: VCF filters out hosts when required network intents―such as vSAN―are not present.
Other options are incorrect:
A. Management port group enabled for vSAN traffic ― vSAN should never run on the management PG.
B. FTT setting ― Has no effect on host visibility; applies only after deployment.
C. Disk partitions ― Affects vSAN disk claim but does not prevent host selection in VCF.

Question No : 6


An administrator attempts to update the VMware vCenter root account password through VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Operations. The attempt fails with the following error message, "Failed to authenticate with the guest operating system using the supplied credentials."
What is the cause of the failure?

정답:
Explanation:
VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 Operations manages credentials for integrated components such as vCenter Server through its internal password vault. When administrators modify passwords directly on the component―such as manually changing the vCenter root password―VCF Operations is no longer able to authenticate using its stored credentials. As a result, any password rotation or update operation initiated through VCF Operations fails during the validation step.
The error "Failed to authenticate with the guest operating system using the supplied credentials" is a direct symptom of this condition. VCF Operations attempts to log in to vCenter using the previously stored credential, which no longer matches the actual root password. Documentation describes this as an "out-of-sync credential state," and the resolution is to perform password remediation to re-synchronize VCF Operations with the system.
Option A (password complexity) is irrelevant because complexity is validated only after authentication.
Option C (vCenter down) would generate connectivity errors, not authentication errors.
Option D (SSH disabled) does not prevent password rotation because VCF Operations uses VMware Tools guest operations, not SSH, for authentication.

Question No : 7


An administrator configures a new VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) instance in a remote site using a vSAN Express Storage Architecture (ESA) for the workload domain cluster. vSAN ESA is configured with Auto-Policy Management and is designed to tolerate a single failure. The cluster experiences a hardware failure and on investigation, the administrator discovers that the affected objects did not re-protect and remain in a "Reduced availability with no rebuild" state.
How can the administrator explain why the vSAN objects did not rebuild as expected?

정답:
Explanation:
In VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0, using vSAN Express Storage Architecture (ESA) with Auto-Policy Management, the system automatically selects the correct storage policy based on the cluster size and desired failure protection. When the administrator configures tolerance for a single failure (FTT=1 using RAID-1 mirroring), vSAN ESA requires sufficient remaining hosts during a failure event to reprotect objects.
A minimum of 3 ESA-capable hosts is required for RAID-1, and re-protection after a failure requires enough hosts with available capacity to place new replica components. In small ESA clusters (e.g., 3 or 4 nodes), if one host fails, the remaining hosts may not meet the placement rules for automatic rebuild to restore compliance. ESA enforces strict placement rules to maintain consistent performance and resilience; if vSAN determines that object layout compliance cannot be restored without violating these rules, it enters Reduced availability with no rebuild state.
This behavior is expected and documented: rebuilds cannot occur if the cluster does not have sufficient hosts or free capacity to recreate absent components. The administrator’s ESA configuration behaved correctly given the cluster size limitation, making B the correct answer.

Question No : 8


An administrator has created an alarm for an object in VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Operations.
The alert does not show up In the alert pane despite being configured on the object.
Parameters:
• Symptom definition: Read Latency (ms) is higher than 1 ms.
• Alert definition: Alert is triggered as soon as the latency is higher than the 1 ms defined in the symptom definition.
• Object type: Virtual Machine.
What is the reason the alert does not show up in the alert view?

정답:
Explanation:
In VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0, VCF Operations (vROps-based) uses policies to control which alerts, symptoms, and metrics are evaluated for a given object. Creating an alert definition and symptom alone is not sufficient; the alert must be associated with and enabled in a policy that is actively applied to the target object (in this case, a Virtual Machine). The documentation shows that when you create an alert definition, there is an explicit Policies step, where you select the policy (for example, the default policy) so that the alert becomes active for objects governed by that policy.
The metric “Read Latency (ms)” is valid for virtual-machineCrelated objects: VCF Operations documents Read Latency metrics at the VM disk and VMCdatastore link level (for Disk and Datastore metrics on Virtual Machines). Therefore, option B (metric not applicable) is incorrect. No requirement exists that such a performance alert must be forwarded from VCF Operations for Logs (D); log-based alerts are a separate alert type.
If the alert definition is not enabled in the effective policy for that VM, VCF Operations will not evaluate the symptom or generate the alert, and it will not appear in the alert pane―even though the definition technically exists. This matches option C exactly.

Question No : 9


An administrator has been tasked with the deletion of a workload domain within a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) instance. The following information has been provided:
• There are two workload domains and a management domain within the VCF instance.
• There is a single vSphere cluster within the workload domain to be deleted.
• There are no user created Virtual Machines in the workload domain cluster.
When performing the deletion in VCF Operations, the task fails at the Gather input for deletion of NSX component stage. The administrator checks the details of the failed task and notices the cause of the error is stated as Cannot read the array length because "<locall9>" is null.
What could be the possible cause of this error message?

정답:
Explanation:
In VMware Cloud Foundation, deletion of a workload domain requires that VCF Operations can correctly discover and process the NSX components attached to that domain. The workload domain delete workflow explicitly includes removal of the NSX Manager and NSX Edge components associated with the domain, unless those NSX components are shared.
In earlier and current VCF guidance, VMware state that NSX Edge clusters for a workload domain must be removed using the documented/VCF-aware method (for example, using the NSX Edge removal process referenced in KB 78635, not by deleting objects directly in NSX Manager). If an administrator deletes the NSX Edge cluster directly in NSX Manager, the VCF inventory and orchestration logic still “believes” the Edge cluster exists. When the workload domain delete workflow reaches the stage “Gather input for deletion of NSX component”, it queries NSX / internal state for Edge cluster data. Because the underlying object has been manually removed, the returned structure is null, which results in an internal “Cannot read the array length because "<locall9>" is null” style error.
Using the NSX Edge Cluster Deployment Removal Tool as per documentation keeps VCF and NSX in sync and is the supported path, so option A is not the likely cause. Network pools and shared NSX Manager configurations do not match the specific NSX-component array/null condition described.

Question No : 10


In VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Automation an administrator is troubleshooting an issue with a newly created Organization. When the Organization administrator attempts to create a Namespace, they receive an error "Failed to list VPC after selecting a region.
The administrator logs into the NSX Manager for the Region and does not see an NSX Project for the Organization.
What could cause these symptoms?

정답:
Explanation:
In VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 Automation, every Organization requires a properly configured Networking Configuration for each Region in which it operates. This configuration step―performed by the Provider Administrator―creates the NSX Project corresponding to the Organization, enabling Namespace creation, VPC visibility, and workload provisioning.
The error “Failed to list VPC after selecting a region” combined with the absence of an NSX Project in NSX Manager is a direct indicator that the Organization’s Networking Configuration was never initialized. VCF Automation automatically creates the NSX Project only when the Provider Admin completes this step.
Option B is invalid because the Organization Administrator cannot create NSX Projects manually; they are system-generated during networking setup.
Option C is incorrect because role assignment affects administrative permissions, not NSX project creation.
Option D is also incorrect―the Organization Admin cannot create a VPC until the NSX Project exists.

Question No : 11


An administrator needs to confirm which account initiates tasks from VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Operations. As a test, a virtual machine (VM) is powered on/off through VCF Operations.
In the vCenter task pane, what account would be the initiator of the task?

정답:
Explanation:
When VMware Cloud Foundation Operations performs actions on vCenter―such as powering on or off a VM―the tasks are initiated through an integration service account, not the identity of the user logged into the VCF Operations UI. VCF Operations connects to vCenter using a configured collector or integration credential, typically a service account defined during initial setup.
VCF documentation clarifies that all automated or orchestrated tasks originating from VCF Operations use this trusted account to ensure consistent auditing, RBAC enforcement, and operational isolation from user identities. Therefore, in the vCenter task pane, the “Initiated By” field always reflects the VCF Operations → vCenter service account, even if the end-user triggered the action indirectly.
Option A is incorrect because the logged-in user does not directly interface with vCenter.
Option C refers to SDDC Manager’s integration account, which is unrelated to VCF Operations workflows.
Option D ([email protected]) appears only when vCenter’s built-in admin performs the action.

Question No : 12


An administrator has successfully mounted an NFS datastore as supplemental storage for a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) workload domain cluster. However, users report that data cannot be written to the datastore.
The administrator confirms the following:
• The NFS share is visible in the vSphere Client.
• Connectivity to the NFS server from the Virtual Machine.
What action should the administrator take next to troubleshoot the issue?

정답:
Explanation:
In VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0, supplemental storage such as NFS is fully supported for workload domains when configured correctly. When an NFS datastore mounts successfully in vSphere but users cannot write data, the issue almost always lies in the export permissions on the NFS server. vSphere will allow mounting a read-only NFS export, but write operations will fail silently at the VM or guest OS level.
VCF documentation confirms that ESXi requires explicit read/write export permissions, typically configured per-host or by IP subnet, on the NFS server. Even if network connectivity and VM-level access appear healthy, incorrect server-side permissions prevent ESXi from executing write operations.
Option A is incorrect because NFS servers are not validated by the HCL for write capability.
Option B (rebooting the host) is unnecessary and unrelated to permission enforcement.
Option D (MTU mismatch) may cause performance issues, not write-access failures.
Thus, the next troubleshooting step is to verify that the ESXi hosts have read/write access on the NFS share, making C the correct answer.

Question No : 13


An administrator is responsible for managing a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Fleet that is configured as follows:
• Single VCF instance with a single workload domain.
• The Workload Domain has a single 5-node VMware vSAN Express Storage Architecture (ESA) cluster.
• The vSAN Default Storage Policy is configured as RAID1.
The administrator is alerted to the fact that storage capacity is running low and, to improve space efficiency, attempts to change the vSAN storage policy on a number of large virtual machines to a 2 Failures - RAID-6 policy.
The policy change is immediately rejected.
What should the administrator do to reduce overall capacity usage while waiting for new storage devices to arrive?

정답:
Explanation:
In VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 with vSAN ESA, storage policies must match the capabilities of the existing cluster. The scenario describes a 5-node vSAN ESA cluster where the vSAN Default Storage Policy is RAID-1 (FTT=1). The administrator attempts to apply a 2 Failures C RAID-6 policy, which ESA supports only on clusters with at least 7 nodes. Because the cluster has only five nodes, the policy fails immediately―this is expected and documented in the vSAN ESA design specifications.
Since RAID-6 is not an option and capacity is low, the administrator must look for a method to reclaim storage usage without requiring additional nodes or unsupported policy changes. Converting VMs from thick provisioning to thin provisioning is a safe and effective mitigation approach. Thin provisioning reduces consumed space by allowing disks to grow only as needed, immediately recovering unused blocks. This is a standard vSAN-supported method to temporarily alleviate capacity pressure.
Enabling encryption (A) or compression (D) does not reduce capacity usage retroactively and may actually increase overhead. Using RAID-5 (B) is also not possible because RAID-5 requires at least 6 ESA-enabled hosts.

Question No : 14


An administrator has been tasked with expanding an existing VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF)
workload domain by adding a new cluster.
The VCF fleet has the following configuration:
• Three workload domains, including the management domain are configured.
• The management domain (WLD-01) and one of the workload domains (WLD-02) are running VCF 9.0.
• The other workload domain (WLD-03) is running VCF 5.2.1 and is an isolated workload domain.
When attempting to perform the required steps using the vSphere Client UI the cluster cannot be added to the WLD-02 workload domain.
What step should the administrator perform to complete the workload domain expansion?

정답:
Explanation:
VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 introduces a major architectural redesign that replaces the traditional SDDC ManagerCcentric domain management model with a unified Fleet Management architecture implemented through VCF Operations Fleet Manager. In this model, each Workload Domain operates with its own vCenter, but Enhanced Linked Mode (ELM) is removed to improve isolation, reduce blast radius, and support multi-site scalability. As a result, administrators logged into the vSphere Client of the Management Domain can no longer manage or expand clusters in other Workload Domains, which explains why the vSphere UI blocks the attempted expansion of WLD-02.
Fleet Manager becomes the new authoritative control plane for lifecycle, topology, host commissioning, and workload domain expansion. Only Fleet Manager maintains the full global view necessary to orchestrate cluster addition operations across distributed vCenters and domains. Because WLD-02 is running VCF 9.0 and is fully fleet-aware, its expansion must occur through VCF Operations Fleet Manager, not through the vSphere Client or legacy SDDC Manager workflows.
Options involving WLD-03 are invalid since that domain is running VCF 5.2.1, is isolated, and cannot participate in fleet-aware operations. SDDC Manager (A) is no longer the correct interface for VCF 9.0 domain expansion operations.

Question No : 15


An administrator Is responsible for managing a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) fleet. The administrator discovers intermittent performance issues with the supplemental storage (ISCSI) connected to VCF workload domain. The administrator discovers that the (iSCSI) target is reachable from most VMware ESX hosts, but some hosts consistently experience periods of slow I/O and connection drops.
Which two actions should the administrator take to diagnose and resolve this issue? (Choose two.)

정답:
Explanation:
To diagnose and resolve the intermittent performance and connection drop issues with the supplemental iSCSI storage, the administrator should focus on network layer consistency and health, particularly regarding packet size (MTU) and delivery (TCP).
Examine the iSCSI VMkernel port for TCP retransmissions (Action B - Diagnose): "Intermittent" connection drops and slow I/O are classic symptoms of packet loss or fragmentation issues. By examining the ESXi network stats (e.g., using esxtop key n or viewing vSphere performance charts) for TCP retransmissions, the administrator can confirm if packets are being dropped or lost in transit. Checksum offload errors can also indicate issues where the NIC hardware is incorrectly validating packets, causing the OS to drop them. This step identifies the root cause (packet loss/corruption).
Ensure all ESX hosts have the VMkernel port MTU set to 9000 (Action E - Resolve): For high-performance storage traffic like iSCSI in a VMware Cloud Foundation environment, it is best practice to use Jumbo Frames (MTU 9000) end-to-end (Host -> Switch -> Storage Array).
The symptom that some hosts are affected suggests configuration drift where those specific hosts might be set to a different MTU (e.g., 1500) or are mismatched with the physical network/target (which is likely set to 9000 for performance).
An MTU mismatch (e.g., Target sending 9000-byte frames to a Host/Switch expecting 1500) typically results in the "Do Not Fragment" (DF) bit causing packet drops, leading to the reported connection drops and retransmission delays. Ensuring a consistent MTU of 9000 across the fleet resolves this and aligns with VCF performance standards.
Note: Option A (CHAP) is for authentication security, not performance.
Option C (Update network plugin) is a lifecycle task but less likely to be the immediate fix for "some hosts" having intermittent drops compared to the common issue of MTU mismatch.
Option D (MTU 1500) would resolve drops if the physical network doesn't support Jumbo Frames, but would degrade performance, making E the preferred resolution for a "performance" storage tier.
