An administrator wants to get information about a specific host and runs this code:
GET/v1/hosts/{sn}
An API code 404 is returned
What is the reason for the error code?
The error code 404 indicates that the requested resource could not be found on the server. In the context of the API call GET/v1/hosts/{sn}, the 404 error is returned because the serial number (sn) provided was not valid or does not exist in the database. This means the server could not find any host that matches the provided serial number.
An environment has two VxRail clusters In vCenter there is only one vSphere Distributed Switch object for both clusters Which deployment architecture was used for these clusters?
The deployment architecture used for these clusters, where there is only one vSphere Distributed Switch object for both clusters in vCenter, is 'External vCenter Server with external DNS.' This setup allows for centralized management of multiple clusters and network resources using a single vSphere Distributed Switch, facilitated by an external vCenter Server and DNS configuration.

Which service on the ESXi host allows automatic discovery when adding a node into an existing VxRail Cluster*?
The service on the ESXi host that allows automatic discovery when adding a node into an existing VxRail Cluster is 'loudmouth.' Loudmouth is a lightweight messaging daemon that enables the nodes in a VxRail cluster to discover each other automatically. This service facilitates the seamless addition of new nodes into an existing VxRail cluster by enabling them to communicate and integrate without manual configuration.

Which VxRail networks support link aggregation1?
In VxRail networks, the vSAN and vMotion networks support link aggregation. Link aggregation (also known as NIC teaming) allows multiple network interfaces to be combined into a single logical interface, providing redundancy and increased throughput. This is particularly beneficial for vSAN traffic, which requires high bandwidth and low latency, and vMotion traffic, which benefits from increased network performance during virtual machine migrations.

What is a benefit when using VCF on VxRail architectures'?
A significant benefit when using VCF (VMware Cloud Foundation) on VxRail architectures is the automation of full stack lifecycle management. VCF on VxRail integrates VMware Cloud Foundation with Dell EMC VxRail, providing an automated and turnkey hybrid cloud solution. This integration automates the deployment, configuration, and ongoing management of the entire stack, including hardware, virtualization, and cloud management, thereby reducing complexity and administrative overhead.
