QuestionQ104

Troubleshooting and Repairing

A vSAN Administrator manages a cluster of six vSAN nodes. The vSAN datastore was 55% utilized when a power outage caused the loss of one node. The vSAN administrator must resolve storage-policy compliance for the virtual machines using RAID-5.

What action, if any, is required to meet this goal?

  • A No action is needed since vSAN automatically rebuilds the objects
  • B The one failed node must be restored
  • C Change the RAID-5 FTT from 2 to 1
  • D Trigger vSAN object repair from ESXCLI
Explanation

RAID-5 with FTT=1 tolerates one host failure. With five nodes remaining and adequate free capacity, vSAN automatically rebuilds the absent RAID-5 components and restores storage-policy compliance after the repair delay.
