QuestionQ83

Architecture and Technologies

An organization is transitioning to a DevOps way of working. It decides to deploy vSphere with Tanzu as a platform for deploying its microservices. The underlying storage will be provided by vSAN.

Which vSphere component is responsible for provisioning storage on the vSAN datastore?

  • A Cloud Native Storage (CNS)
  • B First Class Disks (FCDs)
  • C vSAN File Services
  • D Container Storage Interface (CSI)
Explanation

Cloud Native Storage (CNS), which runs in vCenter Server, manages persistent volumes for Kubernetes workloads and provisions the backing container volumes on supported vSphere datastores, including vSAN. The vSphere CSI driver submits provisioning requests to CNS, while First Class Disks are backing objects rather than the provisioning control-plane component.
