How does vSAN provide fault tolerance in a VxRail cluster?

By using a backup system to restore data

By using a RAID controller to mirror disks

By replicating data across multiple nodes in the cluster

By storing data on a centralized storage array

A VxRail cluster uses hybrid storage with SSDs for cache and HDDs for capacity. The administrator wants to add more capacity. Which action should they take?

Add SSDs to existing disk groups

Add HDDs to existing disk groups

What is the role of vSAN in the VxRail storage architecture?

It provides a file-level storage protocol for accessing data from external clients

It provides a centralized storage array that is shared by all nodes

It provides software-defined storage by pooling local disks across the cluster nodes

It provides a backup and disaster recovery solution for virtual machines

A VxRail cluster is being designed with a single 10GbE switch for all traffic. The administrator is concerned about network redundancy. Which action should they take to improve availability?

Use a single switch with redundant power supplies

Configure two switches with link aggregation (LAG) and VLANs

Use a single 25GbE switch instead

Rely on vSAN network fault domains
