You have a requirement to create a three-tiered application as part of a virtual machine's design. The requirement includes the ability to start up and shut down the tiers in a given order and to be able to ensure that the three-tiered application gets the resources it needs. Which would be the best option?
You are a VMware platform designer at a large service provider reviewing a network design.
Two of the requirements are as follows:
-R001: All traffic must be encrypted or separated. -R002: All components must be fault tolerant.
The current design involves software-based iSCSI storage with teamed 1 GB network cards for the storage network. The iSCSI network has a uniqiue vLAN and network ID. The design ensures that a different password is used for each LUN.
The current design meets both requirements.
You are considering the use of the VCSA. Which of the following use cases would invalidate VCSA as a design choice?
You are a virtualization consultant at a company that develops its own inhouse website trading systems. The new website will be deployed in a vSphere 5 platform, which consists of two clusters and four ESXi hosts (one for each project-the SDLC hosts-for all levels of testing and development prior to production deployment).
The production cluster has been configured for fully automated DRS and VMware HA. During the SDLC, the website platform was developed on a single development ESXi host inside a single VLAN. The system was successfully tested within the SDLC ESXi hosts and then deployed to the production cluster in a single vApp and a single VLAN.
Following a successful midweek, the new application starts to show signs of latency. Suddenly several applications across the cluster are being impacted by network latency issues. Metrics are collected and show that the amount of network traffic between the database and application servers of the new website platform are at 96% utilization on the physical switch links between ESXi hosts in the production cluster. What should you do?
