The VCF 9.0 Operations Access Control Guide describes how dashboard sharing and user access is managed:

Identity Broker Authentication (D): All external users must authenticate via the VCF Identity Broker , which integrates with Active Directory, LDAP, or other identity providers. Documentation states: “Identity Broker provides single sign-on and federation, ensuring users are authenticated consistently across VCF Operations and Automation services.”

Grant Access to Dashboard (E): After authentication, the administrator must explicitly grant access to the dashboard for the specified group. This ensures that only the intended users can view or interact with the dashboard.

Set Time-Bound Access (C): VCF Operations supports time-bound access policies. The documentation specifies: “Access can be granted with an expiration period, ensuring access is automatically revoked after the configured interval (for example, 90 days).” This aligns with the 3-month requirement.

Other options are not suitable:

Reports (A) only send static data, not interactive dashboard access.

Embedded code (B, F) bypasses access control and does not provide authentication or time-limited sharing, which violates the security requirement.

Thus, the correct three steps are: Use Identity Broker (D), Grant access to dashboard (E), and Configure 3-month access expiration (C).

The VCF 9.0 Automation Guide details the use of Property Groups to standardize blueprint inputs and constants across projects. Property Groups allow administrators to define sets of inputs (like size, os, location) and constants (like salt master id) centrally, ensuring consistency across deployments.

The correct actions are:

Create a new Property Group for input properties (C) to capture the standard inputs (size, os, location).

Create a new Property Group for constant properties (E) to include items like the salt master id.

Update all existing blueprints in the production project with the new Property Groups (F) to enforce standardization across new and existing workloads.

Options A and B are incorrect because changes are not required in the appdev project or across the entire organization—only the production project. Option D is redundant since inputs and constants should be separated into distinct groups.

VCF 9.0 describes the VKS architecture and explicitly notes: “ The Cluster API provides declarative, Kubernetes-style APIs for cluster creation, configuration, and management. ” Inputs include resources describing the cluster, VMs, and add-ons. Provisioning flows also present ClusterClass/Cluster API as the supported “cluster type” when creating a Kubernetes cluster via self-service. These extracts confirm that Cluster API is the foundational component used by VMware Kubernetes Service (VKS) on vSphere Supervisor to bootstrap and manage Kubernetes workload clusters in VCF 9.0.
