This is because according to VMware documentation1, the VMware Imaging Appliance (VIA) is a tool that automates ESXi host imaging and configuration for VCF deployments. It supports custom ESXi images that include additional drivers or VIBs that are not part of the base ESXi image2. You can download ESXi software and VIBs from VMware or third-party sources and upload them to VIA for creating custom images3.

This is because according to VMware documentation, this is one of the supported design options for deploying NSX-T Bare Metal Edge nodes for VMware Cloud Foundation VI workload domains. Sharing an NSX-T Manager cluster between both workload domains can reduce costs by minimizing the number of NSX-T licenses required. Adding the NSX-T Bare Metal Edge cluster to the shared NSX-T Manager cluster can satisfy a requirement for extremely low latency by providing direct access to physical network interfaces.

The SDDC Manager UI provides a single point of control for managing and monitoring your VMware Cloud Foundation instance and for provisioning workload domains. You use the navigation bar to move between the main areas of the user interface 1. The SDDC Manager UI provides an integrated view of the physical and virtual infrastructure and centralized access to manage the physical and logical resources 2.

The REST API can also be used to create a new VI workload domain using VMware Cloud Foundation. The VMware Cloud Foundation API Reference Guide provides information on available operations 3.

This is because according to VMware documentation, this is one of the design considerations for implementing stretched clusters in an environment with multiple Availability Zones (AZs). Load balancing in the Layer 3 gateway between AZs can improve network performance and availability by distributing traffic across multiple paths.

 This is because when deploying a stretched cluster in a VMware Cloud Foundation environment, you must ensure that:

• The vSAN network, the host overlay network and the vMotion network are stretched across both availability zones12. These networks enable data replication, communication and migration between hosts in different sites.
• The host overlay network has DHCP enabled to provide IP addresses to hosts1. This simplifies the configuration and management of hosts in different sites.
• Each vSAN stretched cluster has one witness host deployed in a separate location from both availability zones12. The witness host acts as a tie-breaker in case of a site failure or split-brain scenario.

A quote from reference [1] states that, "To add permissions to users or groups from vCenter Single Sign-On identity sources, the Tanzu Kubernetes cluster administrator can use either the vSphere Client or kubectl."

Another quote from reference [1] states that, "By default, a Tanzu Kubernetes cluster includes a set of predefined roles that provides granular permission control for Kubernetes objects. The predefined roles enable cluster groups to be created with specific permissions across the Kubernetes namespace hierarchy. Administrators can also create custom roles to provide more granular permission control that is specific to their organization's requirements."

erasure coding vSAN storage policy with the ability to tolerate two host failures requires at least six fault domains (hosts) in a cluster. Therefore, an 8-hosts cluster can meet this requirement for DEV/UAT workloads. Additionally, creating separate workload domains for DEV/UAT and DMZ can provide full management and network isolation between these two zones.

According to Deployment Model for the NSX-T Edge Nodes for a Virtual Infrastructure Workload Domain1, an NSX-T Edge node is an appliance that provides centralized networking services such as load balancing, NAT, VPN, and physical network uplinks. To achieve north/south connectivity for a workload domain from the SDDC Manager user interface, you need to configure two types of uplinks:

• vSphere VDS Uplinks: These are used to connect the NSX-T Edge node to the vSphere Distributed Switch (VDS) that provides network connectivity for all ESXi hosts in the workload domain cluster.
• NSX VDS Uplinks: These are used to connect the NSX-T Edge node to the external networks via physical network interfaces on the ESXi host where it runs.

This is because according to VMware documentation1, SDDC Manager is responsible for checking and downloading the online bundles for VCF upgrades from depot.vmware.com. The administrator can access SDDC Manager and download the bundles from Inventory > Workload Domains > MGMT > Update/Patches.

According to the VMware documentation, each NSX-T Local Manager is associated with a vCenter Server, and each NSX-T Local Manager can manage up to three vCenters. In a VCF deployment with two environments (PROD and DEV) and two different hardware server types in PROD, there would be a total of three vCenter Servers. Therefore, a total of three NSX-T Local Managers would be provisioned to manage the three vCenter Servers.
