Which three are use cases for vRealize Operations? (Choose three.)
Option E is also a valid use case, as Continuous Performance Optimization enables vRealize Operations to balance and optimize performance and efficiency across the SDDC and hybrid cloud. It provides automated workload placement, resource reclamation, and proactive configuration management.
Option A is not a valid use case, as Implement Zero Trust is not a core outcome of vRealize Operations. Zero Trust is a security model that requires strict verification of identity and access for every request and transaction, regardless of the location or device. While vRealize Operations can help monitor and enforce compliance policies, it is not designed to implement Zero Trust on its own.
Option C is not a valid use case, as Self-Service Catalog is not a core outcome of vRealize Operations. Self-Service Catalog is a feature of VMware vRealize Automation, which is a cloud automation platform that allows users to request and provision IT services from a catalog of predefined items. vRealize Operations can integrate with vRealize Automation to provide visibility and control over the cloud resources, but it does not provide the catalog functionality itself.
Option F is not a valid use case, as Infrastructure Pipelining is not a core outcome of vRealize Operations. Infrastructure Pipelining is a concept of applying DevOps principles and practices to the provisioning and management of infrastructure resources. It involves using code, automation, and continuous integration and delivery tools to streamline and standardize the infrastructure lifecycle. vRealize Operations can support Infrastructure Pipelining by providing insights and recommendations for the infrastructure performance and capacity, but it does not provide the pipelining functionality itself.

An administrator would like to use vRealize Operations Cloud to monitor an on-premises deployment.
Which initial step must the administrator take?
An administrator has configured Service Discovery within vRealize Operations. Service Discovery has successfully discovered services on all of the Windows Virtual Machines, but all of the Linux Virtual Machines are reporting the Authentication status as "VM authentication status is failed".
Which two issues could produce this type of response? (Choose two.)
According to the VMware vRealize Operations Reference Materials, Service Discovery is a feature that allows you to automatically discover and monitor the services running on your virtual machines. Service Discovery can use two methods: credential-based and credential-less. Credential-based Service Discovery requires you to provide guest credentials for each virtual machine, while credential-less Service Discovery uses VMware Tools to run scripts on the guest operating system without requiring credentials.
For Linux virtual machines, credential-less Service Discovery requires the installation of Telegraf agent, which is a data collection and reporting agent that communicates with VMware Tools. If the Telegraf agent is not installed on the Linux virtual machines, Service Discovery will fail to authenticate and collect data from them. Therefore, option A is correct.
Another requirement for Linux virtual machines is to enable the open-vm-tools-sdmg package, which is a service discovery management pack that allows VMware Tools to run scripts for Service Discovery. If the open-vm-tools-sdmg package is not enabled on the Linux virtual machines, Service Discovery will also fail to authenticate and collect data from them. Therefore, option D is correct.
The other options are not correct because they are not related to the authentication status of Service Discovery. Option B is not correct because the required network ports are not specific to Linux virtual machines, and they are only needed for credential-based Service Discovery. Option C is not correct because the version of VMware Tools does not affect the authentication status of Service Discovery, as long as it supports the credential-less method. Option E is not correct because the Endpoint Operations agent is not required for Service Discovery, and it is used for a different purpose of collecting metrics and properties from the guest operating system and applications.References:

An administrator is importing an Active Directory group with a role, and group members can login into vRealize Operations successfully. After a while, the administrator adds some new users into Active Directory group and is covers that newly added group members are not seen under User Accounts section and cannot login into vRealize Operations. Everything is working as expected for the old group members.
The administrator needs to take further steps to allow the newly added group members to login quickly into vRealize Operations.
Which two steps should the administrator take? (Choose two.)
