VMware Certified Advanced Professional 7 - Cloud Management and Automation Design Exam v1.0

An architect was tasked with providing a temporary vRealize Automation instance for a test environment that includes a single vRealize Automation appliance and an IaaS server that includes a SQL database instance.
After testing is complete, the architect is tasked to convert the existing instance into a distributed, load-balanced instance to be used for production. Which design solution would best address this request?
A.

During initial provisioning lifecycle of its vRealize Automation workloads, an architect wants the ability to call an external system during state changes of machines.
Which are three acceptable lifecycle states that could be used for calling out to a system? (Choose three.)

Which two statements are true regarding a vRealize Automation appliance configured for high availability? (Choose two.)

A development team has requested the ability to refresh database contents for existing pre-production SQL servers managed by vRealize Automation. The developers have provided the cloud architect with a T-SQL script suitable for performing this task.
Which design recommendation would address the requirements of this scenario?

An architect has been asked to design a machine blueprint for the development team. The machine(s) of each deployment must contain dynamically-assigned unique IP"™s that could be reached by the resources on the corporate network.
Which type of network should the architect recommend for this blueprint?

A company with a full vRealize solution stack deployment has recently been considering the Amazon Web Services (EC2) offering. The vRealize Automation architect is being tasked with integrating the Amazon test account with its environment for testing.
What would be the easiest way to complete this integration without adding any risks to the production environment?

A cloud architect is tasked with designing a solution for guest virtual machine backup system integration for an organization"™s vRealize Automation (vRA) private cloud. During requirements gathering, the backup system vendor confirmed that REST API methods are available for the following:
-> Install and configure backup agent
-> Initiate incremental backup
-> Initiate full system backup
-> Uninstall backup agent and remove number of nodes form license node count
-> Only authorized users should initiate full system backups
Which design solution addresses this scenario?

An architect is tasked with designing a solution to satisfy the following requirements for vSphere Machine provisioning:
-> All business groups share the same vCenter template.
-> Based on the user selected application name, a corresponding vCenter customization specification should be selected. If no match is found, the business group"™s default customization specification should be used.
Which two solutions could meet these requirements?
A.

An Internet Service Provider requires the use of vRealize Automation to create blueprints and application services. It must catalog the blueprints once and share across multiple tenants in order to maintain standards and avoid rework.
Which statement is true about blueprints and application services?

A large non-profit organization is working to automate deployment of servers and software. For one popular software package, the organization owns a limited number of instance licenses which must be tracked per deployment. Currently this is a manual process, involving an operator updating a SQL database of licensing information.
The cloud architect has already designed a software component and blueprint capable of deploying the software.
Which design meets the requirements of this scenario?

An architect wants the ability to associate a blueprint with the default machine states for the use of extensibility tasks.
Which four default machine states could be associated with a blueprint to call out extensibility tasks? (Choose four.)

A company"™s vRealize Automation infrastructure is using replicated storage as well as local storage. All production virtual machine deployments should be places into the "Production" folder so that it is on replicated storage. For the company"™s development environment, all deployments should be placed in the "Development"
VM folder so that it is on non-replicated storage.
Which setting should be configured for the production blueprint?

The architect for a vRealize Automation project met with the IT team and identified the following requirements:
1. Fine grained logging and monitoring of all events
2. 99.99% SLA of the custom portal
3. Utilize built-in functionality
4. HIPAA Compliance
5. API calls to vRA and NSX
6. Custom Portal
To which two infrastructure qualities would the "˜Fine grained logging and monitoring of all events"™ technical requirement map?

An administrator maintains multiple tenants on a vRealize Automation environment. Consumers of Tenant B have requested to modify their current tenant architecture from the default to incorporate their own mail servers so that their user base can respond to notifications for completing work items and approvals.
Consumers of Tenant A insist that no change be made to their current mail settings.
Which design changes are required to the architecture to meet the requirements for both tenants?
