New Release 5V0-35.21 VMware vRealize Operations - Cloud Management Automation 2023 Questions

• The troubleshooting workbench is a feature of vRealize Operations that provides a unified and interactive view of the alerts, metrics, events, and logs related to an object or a problem in your environment. You can use the troubleshooting workbench to quickly identify the root cause of an issue, analyze the impact and symptoms, and take corrective actions12.
• The troubleshooting workbench can show the data from other vRealize Suite products when the integration is configured. The integration enables vRealize Operations to collect and display the data from the other products as additional sources of information and context for troubleshooting purposes. The integration also enables vRealize Operations to launch the other products from the troubleshooting workbench to perform further analysis or actions34.
• The other vRealize Suite product that can show its data in the troubleshooting workbench when the integration is configured is vRealize Network Insight. vRealize Network Insight is a product that provides visibility and analytics for network and security across physical, virtual, and cloud environments. It helps you to plan, operate, troubleshoot, and optimize your network and security infrastructure, as well as ensure compliance and security posture56.
• When vRealize Operations is integrated with vRealize Network Insight, you can see the network and security data from vRealize Network Insight in the troubleshooting workbench. For example, you can see the network flows, firewall rules, network paths, and network health of the objects or problems that you are troubleshooting. You can also launch vRealize Network Insight from the troubleshooting workbench to perform deeper network and security analysis or actions .

 The action that would help achieve the goal of excluding alerts triggered by the test/development VMs, but not other VMs, is to create a policy inherited from the current active policy, set the alert definition state to “Disabled”, and then assign to test/development VMs. A policy is a set of configuration settings that define the behavior and appearance of vRealize Operations for the objects to which it is applied1. A policy can be inherited from another policy, and it can override or customize the settings of the parent policy2. An alert definition is a configuration that defines the conditions and actions for generating analert3. An alert definition can be enabled or disabled in a policy, and it can be assigned to specific object types or groups4. By creating a policy inherited from the current active policy, the administrator can preserve the existing settings for the other VMs, and only modify the alert definition state for the test/development VMs. By setting the alert definition state to “Disabled”, the administrator can prevent the alert from being triggered by the test/development VMs, and avoid the unnecessary noise and notifications. By assigning the policy to the test/development VMs, the administrator can apply the customized settings to the desired objects, and ensure the policy precedence and inheritance. Under Alerts, select Alerts Definitions, and then remove the Symptoms Definition (option B) is not a correct action, as it would affect the alert definition for all the VMs, not just the test/development VMs, and it would also remove the ability to detect the CPU usage issue for the other VMs. On the Environment tab, select all test/development VMs, and then unassign the active policy that is currently assigned to the test/development VM (option C) is not a correct action, as it would not disable the alert definition for the test/development VMs, but rather assign them the default policy, which may have different settings and alert definitions than the current active policy. Under Alerts, select Alerts Definitions, and then set the alert definition to “Disabled” for test/development VMs (option D) is not a correct action, as it would not create a separate policy for the test/development VMs, but rather modify the current active policy, which may affect the other VMs that are using the same policy. References:

 The option within the What-If Analysis feature that should be used to obtain the information is Workload Planning: Traditional. This option allows the administrator to define scenarios that can potentially add or remove workloads to or from actual data centers orcustom data centers. vRealize Operations models the scenario and calculates whether the desired workload can fit in the targeted data center or custom data center, and how it affects the capacity and performance of the cluster1. The administrator can also specify the profile of the workload, the start and end date of the scenario, and the annual projected growth of the workload2.

The other options are not correct, because they do not match the use case of adding virtual machines to a non-hyperconverged cluster. Cluster Planning: Traditional allows the administrator to define scenarios that can potentially add or remove hosts to or from clusters, and evaluate the impact on the cluster capacity and performance3. Virtual Machine Planning: Traditional allows the administrator to define scenarios that can potentially add or remove virtual machines to or from hosts, and evaluate the impact on the host capacity and performance. Infrastructure Planning: Traditional allows the administrator to define scenarios that can potentially add or remove infrastructure components, such as datastores, networks, or adapters, and evaluate the impact on the infrastructure capacity and performance.

When creating an alert definition that has multiple symptoms, the triggered symptom that sets the criticality is the most critical symptom. The criticality of an alert definition is the level of severity or urgency that the alert indicates, such as Critical, Immediate, Warning, or Informational. The criticality of an alert definition is determined by the highest criticality of the symptoms that are included in the alert definition1. When an alert is generated, the criticality of the alert is set by the most critical symptom that triggered the alert. For example, if an alert definition has two symptoms, one with a criticality of Critical and one with a criticality of Warning, and both symptoms are triggered, the alert will have a criticality of Critical. However, if only the symptom with a criticality of Warning is triggered, the alert will have a criticality of Warning2. References: 1: Policy Alert Definitions 2: Alert Definition Best Practices
