What is the most immediate action to take when a vSAN capacity alarm indicates that the cluster is running out of space?

Delete all snapshots immediately

Change the storage policy to a lower FTT

Add additional capacity devices to the disk groups

A stretched cluster has a partition between the two data sites. The vSAN Health Service shows that the witness is healthy and connected to both sites. What is the expected state of the VMs?

VMs on both sites will be available, but with reduced performance.

VMs on both sites will remain available because the witness is healthy.

VMs on the site that can reach the witness will remain available, and VMs on the other site will be powered off.

All VMs will be powered off because the data sites are partitioned.

A vSAN cluster is experiencing slow performance. The administrator suspects a disk issue. What is the first step in the troubleshooting methodology?

Immediately replace the suspected disk.

Review the vmkernel.log for disk-related errors.

Check the vSAN Health Service for any disk health warnings.

Place the host into maintenance mode to isolate the issue.
