You are doing an audit for vCenter Server vcsa0la s inventory.
On the desktop, you will find a folder named "powercli-question". In the folder, there is a script named "vds-script.psl".
Your colleague needs some help to get it working as expected. Your task is to modify the script so that it exports a list of virtual machines, enables promiscuous mode on PCLI-Portgroup. and exports PCLl-Portgroup.
Your team is experiencing intermittent issues with esxi0la and you have been asked to configure the host to export its syslog data to a preconfigured syslog collector.
To complete this task, you must:
• Configure esxi0la.vciass.local to send syslog events to an external syslog collector on 172.20.10.10.
• Ensure that the ESXi host security policies allow the syslog traffic to pass.
You are tasked to automate the installation and deployment of new host added into your company vSphere cluster using Auto Deploy. Ensure Auto Deploy and Image Builder is set to start automatically every time vCenter Server is restarted. Use the web client and VCSA0la to perform this step.
Confirm that the auto deploy plugin is available in the web interface. You may be required to logout and log back in after enabling the services.
The vCenter server is required to retrieve software from an online depot. You are to use the depot provided below and ensure that Auto Deploy is always running even, with restart of vCenter server.
Name FirstDepot
URL https / / hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUB/PRODUCTION/main/vmw-depot-index.xml
Note: ignore error that you received on cannot connect to depot. This is expected due to vCSA do not have internet connection.
Create a deploy Rule on VCSA0la based on information below. You do not need to apply to any host at this time.
Name: Rule1
Specify Rule to match Vendor: Dell
Check 'Do Not Include Image Profile"
Check 'Do Not Include Host Profile"
Select host location: Choose cluster PROD-A
Due to budget constraints, the development team must place its virtual machines on the same ESXi hosts as the production virtual machines. In order to prevent resource contention caused by the development workload, you must limit their resources.
On Cluster PROD-A create a resource pool under this cluster for future development VMs. Create a 4 GHz CPU limit and a 256 MB memory limit
• Cluster Name: PROD-A
• Resource Pool Name: DevRP
• CPU Limit: 4 GHz
• Memory Limit: 256 MB
The Virtual Infrastructure team wants to share a VM Template from vcsa0la to vcsa0lb via content libraries. Ensure that the content in the libraries is synchronized only when needed.
• Name of Published Content Library in vcsa0la: CL01
• Name of Subscribed Content Library in vcsa0lb: CL02
• For both content libraries, use the local datastore: SAN01
• VM Template to be shared: Core-Template
After the Core-Template has been synchronized from CL01 to CL02. deploy a virtual machine from VM-Template on vcsa0lb
• Name of virtual machine: CL-VM
• Host for virtual machine: »sxi03b
