An administrator is responsible for managing a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Fleet that is configured as follows:

• Single VCF instance with a single workload domain.

• The Workload Domain has a single 5-node VMware vSAN Express Storage Architecture (ESA) cluster.

• The vSAN Default Storage Policy is configured as RAID1.

The administrator is alerted to the fact that storage capacity is running low and, to improve space efficiency, attempts to change the vSAN storage policy on a number of large virtual machines to a 2 Failures - RAID-6 policy.

The policy change is immediately rejected.

What should the administrator do to reduce overall capacity usage while waiting for new storage devices to arrive?

An administrator needs to confirm which account initiates tasks from VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Operations. As a test, a virtual machine (VM) is powered on/off through VCF Operations.

In the vCenter task pane, what account would be the initiator of the task?

An administrator has been tasked with deploying a new workload domain consisting of six VMware ESX hosts with VMware vSAN into an existing VMware

Cloud Foundation (VCF) instance. After starting the deployment from VCF Operations, they discover that only four of the six hosts required are listed for

selection in the UI. The administrator checks the Unassigned Host Inventory view in the vSphere Client and confirms that all six hosts are listed.

Which step should the administrator perform to identify why the two hosts are not available for selection?

• There are two workload domains and a management domain within the VCF instance.

• There is a single vSphere cluster within the workload domain to be deleted.

• There are no user created Virtual Machines in the workload domain cluster.

When performing the deletion in VCF Operations, the task fails at the Gather input for deletion of NSX component stage. The administrator checks the details of the failed task and notices the cause of the error is stated as Cannot read the array length because "" is null.

What could be the possible cause of this error message?
