2V0-16.25 Exam Dumps - VMware vSphere Foundation 9.0 Administrator

TheVCF Operations for Logs capabilitymost useful forroot cause analysis and troubleshootingisLog Querying.

Allows searching, filtering, and correlating log events to diagnose issues.

Log Forwarding (A)→ Sends logs elsewhere, not analysis.

Alerting (B)→ Notifies about issues but does not provide investigation details.

Dashboarding (C)→ Provides visualization, but root cause analysis requiresqueries.

In avSAN Original Storage Architecture (OSA) cluster, the feature that provides themaximum storage space reductionisDeduplication and Compression.

Deduplication removes duplicate blocks across the cluster.

Compression further reduces the space used by unique blocks.

These are applied at thedisk group leveland are essential inVDI environmentswhere identical VM images consume space.

Why others are incorrect:

A. Disable Object Checksum→ Only reduces CPU overhead, not storage space.

C. Object space reservation→ Controls reserved capacity, not reduction.

D. Compression only→ Reduces space, but less than Deduplication + Compression combined.

When creating acustom alert in VCF Operations, the final required step is:

Enable the alert in an Active Policy, so it applies to the target objects.

Without policy activation, the alert exists but will never trigger.

Other options:

A. Super metric→ Only required if monitoring a custom metric, not for standard alerts.

B. REST Notification Plugin→ Used for outbound integration, not triggering alerts.

C. Payload Template→ Used in notifications, not in core alert configuration.

The requirements:

QA must not lose performance during contention→ QA must haveguaranteed resources, soFixedis correct.

Marketing can use leftover resources when QA is idle→ Marketing must beScalable, so it can borrow resources from QA’s allocation when available.

Other options:

A. Both Fixed→ Marketing would not be able to use QA’s unused resources.

C. QA Scalable, MKT Fixed→ QA would lose guaranteed resources, violating requirements.

D. Not possible→ Incorrect; VMware supports this configuration.

InVCF Operations for Logs, administrators can analyze logs using queries, fields, and charts. A key feature is the ability toview the value range of a specific field.

When a log query is executed, results appear in theEvents table.

Each field shown in the Events table is interactive.

Byclicking on a field in the Events table, administrators can drill down into the data tovisualize its value distribution (range), typically in the form of a histogram or grouped data set.

This provides insight intowhat values are present and how frequently they occur, which is useful for troubleshooting, anomaly detection, and refining queries.

Why not the other options?

A. Click the pencil in the Manage Fields pane→ Used toedit or extract fields, not visualize ranges.

C. Click on the field in Manage Fields→ Displays field definitions and settings, not real-time value ranges.

D. Click on the field in the Field Table→ The Field Table lists defined fields but does not provide value range visualization.

VMware Toolsis a suite of services and drivers installed in a VM. It provides:

Guest OS heartbeat service (B):Used by vCenter to monitor VM health.

Device drivers (C):Optimized drivers for network, storage, graphics, and mouse/keyboard integration.

Other options:

A. Journaling of file system metadata→ Provided by the guest OS filesystem, not VMware Tools.

D. Stores VM configuration files→ Handled by vCenter/ESXi, not VMware Tools.

E. Manages VM hardware configuration→ Done via vSphere Client, not VMware Tools.

ForiSCSI multipathing with ALUAandhigh performancein ESXi:

1 vSwitch with 2 Uplinks→ Standard design for redundancy and multipathing. (B)

Add iSCSI software adapter→ Required to connect to storage. (E)

Configure two bound VMkernel ports→ Ensures multipathing (one per uplink). (G)

Set PSP to Round Robin (RR)→ Optimizes I/O balancing across multiple paths. (F)

Other options:

A. 2 vSwitches with 1 Uplink each→ Not recommended, complicates multipathing.

C. NVMe over TCP→ Not relevant, storage is iSCSI.

D. MRU policy→ Legacy, not high performance.

H. Unbound VMkernel ports→ Used for software iSCSI port binding, but "bound" VMkernel ports are required for multipathing.

The requirement is for acentralized platformto monitorperformance, health, and capacityacross theentire VMware vSphere Foundation (VVF) environment.

VCF Operations

Providesend-to-end performance monitoring, capacity management, and health analyticsacross vCenter, ESXi, vSAN, and NSX.

IncludesFinOps and Capacity Planning,performance diagnostics, andAI-driven troubleshootingfor faster remediation.

This is the primary component for monitoring theentire VCF environment.

VCF Operations for Networks

Extends observability tonetwork operationsby monitoring NSX health, VPCs, and network flows.

Providestraffic summaries, alerts, and network capacity metrics.

Integrated with VCF Operations to ensure acomplete platform-wide viewof health and performance.

Why not the others?

VCF Operations for Logs→ Focused onlog management, troubleshooting, and diagnostics(not holistic performance/capacity monitoring).

vSphere Supervisor→ ProvidesKubernetes namespace and workload management, not centralized performance/capacity monitoring.
