In the vSphere Client, where is VxRail Health Monitoring enabled?
In the vSphere Client, VxRail Health Monitoring is enabled under Cluster > Configure > VxRail. This section provides an interface for configuring and monitoring VxRail-specific health and performance metrics, ensuring that administrators can effectively manage and monitor their VxRail clusters.
Steps:
Open the vSphere Client.
Navigate to the specific cluster.
Go to the Configure tab.
Select VxRail from the list.
What two failure events cause the vSAN to start rebuilding components immediately on the VxRail system?
(Select 2)
Two failure events that cause vSAN to start rebuilding components immediately on the VxRail system are:
ESXi host failure
Capacity device failure
When an ESXi host fails, vSAN detects the loss of the host and initiates the rebuilding of the affected components to maintain data availability and integrity. Similarly, when a capacity device (such as an SSD or HDD) fails, vSAN starts the rebuild process to ensure that data remains protected and accessible.

When the VxRail cluster is deployed, what vSAN storage policy settings are applied to the VxRail Manager VIVP
When the VxRail cluster is deployed, the vSAN storage policy settings applied to the VxRail Manager VM are as follows:
Failures to Tolerate: 1 failure - RAID 1 (Mirroring)
Object space reservation: Thin provisioning
These settings ensure that the VxRail Manager VM has redundancy to tolerate a single failure and uses thin provisioning to optimize storage usage.

By default, how often does the vSAN Skyline Health check run?
By default, the vSAN Skyline Health check runs every 60 minutes. This regular interval ensures that the health status of the vSAN environment is frequently assessed, allowing administrators to promptly address any issues that may arise.

A VM is configured with hard disks totaling 100 GB allocated The VM is using a RAID 5 vSAN Storage Policy What is the total space that is consumed on the vSAN Datastore?
When a VM is configured with hard disks totaling 100 GB and uses a RAID 5 vSAN Storage Policy, the total space consumed on the vSAN Datastore is approximately 133 GB. RAID 5 in vSAN requires additional space for parity, which is typically about 1.33 times the original data size. This means that for 100 GB of allocated space, the actual consumed space will be around 133 GB, accounting for the data and parity overhead.
