Question 1

Which rule in a virtual machine (VM) storage policy is configured to ensure data redundancy in a VMware vSAN environment?

  1. Option A:

    Failures to Tolerate

  2. Option B:

    Disk Stripes Per Object

  3. Option C:

    Stripe Width

  4. Option D:

    Flash Read Cache Reservation

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

The VM Storage Policy rule that controls data redundancy in vSAN is Failures to Tolerate (FTT) .

Defines the number of hardware failures (host, disk, network) that vSAN can tolerate while maintaining data availability.

Configurations include RAID-1 (mirroring) , RAID-5/6 (erasure coding) .

Other options:

B. Disk Stripes Per Object → Defines performance striping, not redundancy.

C. Stripe Width → Same as above, not redundancy.

D. Flash Read Cache Reservation → Relates to caching performance, not redundancy.

Question 2 (choose 2)

The security team has requested that high-sensitivity workloads be protected using Confidential Computing in your VMware vSphere Foundation (VVF) 9.0 environment.

These workloads handle regulated data that must be isolated from the hypervisor and other tenants, even when running on the same ESX host.

The vSphere administrator is responsible for ensuring that only trusted hosts are used and that virtual machines are configured with hardware-enforced memory isolation.

Which two configurations must you implement to support Confidential Computing for these workloads? (Choose two.)

  1. Option A:

    Create virtual machines with hardware version 22 and set the Confidential Computing flag.

  2. Option B:

    Use TPM 2.0 on the guest OS to generate attestation reports for VM launch.

  3. Option C:

    Enable AMD SEV-SNP or Intel TDX support in the host BIOS and confirm compatibility in vSphere.

  4. Option D:

    Configure Encrypted vMotion with "Required" mode for the VM.

  5. Option E:

    Enable vSphere Trust Authority and set the Confidential Computing flag.

Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C, E

For Confidential Computing in vSphere 9.0 :

Hardware Memory Isolation : Requires AMD SEV-SNP (Secure Encrypted Virtualization – Secure Nested Paging) or Intel TDX (Trust Domain Extensions) enabled in the host BIOS and supported by ESXi. (C)

Trusted Hosts : Must use vSphere Trust Authority (vTA) to ensure that only verified, secure hosts run Confidential VMs. The VM must have the Confidential Computing flag set. (E)

Other options:

A. VM Hardware version 22 → Required for new features, but Confidential Computing specifically requires hardware + vTA.

B. TPM 2.0 guest OS attestation → Not used for Confidential Computing, that’s host-based attestation.

D. Encrypted vMotion Required → Recommended for secure VMotion, but not sufficient for Confidential Computing.
