2V0-32.22 Exam Dumps : VMware Cloud Operations 8.x Professional

When tasked with analyzing the impact of deploying a new application in an environment utilizing an external storage array, the appropriate What-If Analysis in VMware vRealize Operations is Workload Planning: Traditional. This analysis allows administrators to model the addition of new workloads to traditional (non-hyperconverged) infrastructures, providing insights into resource utilization and capacity planning.

To perform this analysis:

Navigate to the What-If Analysis Section:

In the vRealize Operations interface, go to Plan > Capacity.

Click on the What-If Analysis tile.

Select Workload Planning: Traditional:

Click the ADD button.

Choose Add VMs under the Workload Planning: Traditional tile.

Configure the New Workload:

Specify the data center or custom data center where the new application will be deployed.

Define the workload profile by either:

Manually entering the number of vCPUs, memory, storage, and expected usage percentage.

Importing attributes from existing VMs to use as templates.

Set the Time Frame:

Enter the start and end dates for the period during which the workload will be active. The system can project scenarios up to one year from the current date.

Run the Analysis:

After configuring the workload, run the scenario to receive vRealize Operations' assessment.

The system will indicate whether the proposed workload fits within the targeted infrastructure and provide projections on resource utilization over time.

This process enables administrators to forecast the impact of new applications on existing resources, ensuring informed decisions regarding capacity and performance.

 Switch to Interactive Analytics in vRealize Log Insight:

Start in the Interactive Analytics tab, where you can create queries to analyze log data.

 Run the query for which the notification should be sent:

Input the desired query to filter the log data that will trigger the alert.

 Select the button called Create Alert from Query:

Once the query produces the desired results, click the Create Alert from Query button to begin configuring the alert.

 Specify the alert details including a name:

Provide a meaningful name and details for the alert to identify its purpose.

 Select the Email check-box and type the e-mail distribution list to which vRealize Log Insight should send the notifications:

Enable email notifications, and enter the email addresses or distribution list where the alerts will be sent.

When deploying vRealize Log Insight, selecting the appropriate disk provisioning format is crucial for optimal performance. The recommended disk format is Thick Provision Eager Zeroed.

Thick Provision Eager Zeroed:

Description: This disk type allocates the entire disk space at creation time and zeros out all blocks immediately.

Advantages:

Performance: Eliminates the need to zero blocks during write operations, resulting in better write performance.

Reliability: Reduces the risk of disk fragmentation and potential performance degradation over time.

Alternative Disk Formats:

Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed:

Allocates disk space at creation but zeros blocks on demand during write operations, which can introduce latency.

Thin Provisioned:

Allocates disk space incrementally as data is written. While it conserves storage initially, it can lead to performance issues due to dynamic space allocation and potential fragmentation.

Recommendation:

For production environments, VMware recommends using Thick Provision Eager Zeroed disks for vRealize Log Insight to ensure consistent and optimal performance.
