2V0-17.25 Exam Dumps : VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 Administrator

When creating a Region in VCF Automation, multiple workload domains can be aggregated to provide capacity to Organizations. For consistent provisioning across domains, resource constructs must be uniform.

The VCF 9.0 Automation documentation specifies:

VM Classes must exist with identical names across integrated vCenters to ensure consistent deployment behavior.

Storage Classes must also be consistently defined across Supervisors to allow Kubernetes and VM workloads to consume storage predictably.

Region quotas (A) are applied after region creation.

Reserved VM Classes (C) are not a prerequisite unless specifically required for policy enforcement.

An Organization for VM Applications (D) is not required prior to region creation.

Thus, the administrator must validate:

Consistent VM Classes (B)

Consistent Storage Classes (E)

VCF 9.0 licensing is managed through VCF Operations and the VCF Business Services console. The product requires periodic license updates even in connected mode. The documentation states explicitly: “You must update your licenses at least once every 6 months (180 days). If license usage data is not submitted… your licenses are treated as expired, your hosts are disconnected from the vCenter instance, and you cannot start any workload operations.” This language is repeated in the Licensing Overview and Upgrade/Registration sections, confirming the 180-day requirement applies to both connected and disconnected modes (in connected mode usage submission is automated, but you still must perform an update action). Therefore, the correct interval is 180 days.

In a two-node vSAN cluster, a third component called a witness host is required to provide quorum and prevent split-brain scenarios. The VMware vSAN documentation states:

“A two-node vSAN cluster requires a witness host to maintain cluster quorum. The witness can be either a dedicated physical ESXi host or a vSAN Witness Appliance deployed as a virtual appliance.”

Valid witness options:

Physical ESXi Host (A) – A dedicated host that participates only as a witness and does not store data.

vSAN Witness Appliance (B) – A preconfigured virtual appliance provided by VMware that runs ESXi and serves as the witness host.

Incorrect options:

VCF Operations appliance (C) is for monitoring and analytics.

VCF Installer (D) is used for deployment workflows.

vCenter appliance (E) manages the cluster but does not act as a witness.

Therefore, the two correct options are Physical ESX Host and vSAN Witness Appliance.
