Exam 2V0-17.25 Topic 1 Question 74 Discussion

Actual exam question for VMware's 2V0-17.25 exam
Question #: 74
Topic #: 1
A large corporation recently experienced a power outage at one of its primary data centers resulting in service disruption for customers in that region. An administrator is tasked to assess the current infrastructure and propose a plan to improve resiliency.
Current configuration:
Single-site vSAN Express Storage Architecture (ESA) cluster
12 hosts
Cluster resource utilization (CPU, memory, and storage) is under 30%
Which solution would improve resiliency and minimize service disruption in data center outages with a recovery point objective (RPO) of zero without requiring additional hosts?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

The VCF 9.0 Design Guide highlights that for resiliency across sites with RPO = 0, the recommended approach is a vSAN Stretched Cluster. Documentation states: "Stretched clusters provide site-level resilience by mirroring data across two fault domains (sites). In the event of a full site outage, workloads remain available with no data loss (RPO = 0)." Relocating six hosts to another site creates the two fault domains required for vSAN Stretched Cluster. Options B and C provide backup or redundancy but not synchronous replication with zero RPO. Option D (fault domains) protects against host/rack failures, not entire data center loss. Therefore, the correct solution is to relocate hosts and configure a stretched cluster.
