2V0-17.25 Exam Dumps - VMware VCP-VCF Administrator Questions and Answers

In VCF 9.x, air-gapped bring-up requires staging therequired binariesin the VCF Installer. The documented list explicitly includesNSXandVCF Operationsamong the components to upload. The product guide states: “VMware Cloud Foundation required binariesinclude…NSX…VMware Cloud Foundation Operations… vCenter … SDDC Manager…” (exact list excerpt). This list doesnotcall for ESX images or the legacy “Lifecycle Manager.”

Therefore, from the given options the two binaries that must be uploaded areNSXandVCF Operations. ESX is pre-imaged on hosts per preparation guidance and is not a required VCF Installer binary; “Lifecycle Manager” is not used in VCF 9.0 bring-up.

===========

TheVCF Healthfeature “provides a central location for monitoring the health of your environment,” including the ability to track “vCenter Server instances,” “ESXi hosts,” and “NSX deployments.” Health monitoring includes connectivity, configuration, and critical services status, surfacing alerts for remediation. The documentation’s scope statements make clear that VCF Health targets theinfrastructure components—vCenter, ESXi, and NSX—rather than the VCF Operations applications themselves (for example, Fleet Management or Logs). Therefore, the correct monitored components areESX hosts,vCenter Server, andNSX.

TheVCF 9.0 Architecture Guideoutlines validprincipal storage optionsfor the management domain. It states: “The management domain must be deployed using vSAN, NFS, or Fibre Channel (FC). Supported protocols include NFSv3 and VMFS on FC.” vSAN (including OSA) is the default recommended option, but NFSv3 and VMFS on FC are also supported for environments where external storage arrays are required.

NVMe/TCP and vVols arenot supportedfor the initial management domain’s principal storage. vVols may be used in workload domains after deployment, but they are not a supported foundation for the management domain. Therefore, the three correct storage solutions for the first management workload domain are:VMFS on FC, NFSv3, and vSAN OSA.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:

The VCF Automation Networking Guide (9.0) documents that when an Organization for All Applications is created, networking constructs are provisioned automatically to provide immediate connectivity. Specifically, “During region creation, the system automatically deploys a Default VPC, a Provider Tier-0 Gateway, a VPC connectivity profile, and default SNAT rules to enable outbound access.” .

DNAT rules are not provisioned by default (they must be configured for inbound services). Likewise, NSX Transit Gateway is a multi-region design element, not automatically deployed for a single org setup. A VDS is a vSphere construct and not part of the NSX automation performed at this stage. Therefore, the automatically created items are: Default VPC (A), Provider Tier-0 Gateway (B), SNAT rule (E), and VPC Connectivity Profile (G).

AVM Classpredefines hardware for Supervisor-managed VMs: “The VM class… defines such parameters as the number of virtual CPUs, memory capacity, and reservation settings.”

Administration steps show these are configurable: “You can configure hardware resources such as CPU, memory, and different devices” when editing a VM class.

Additionally, the DCLI/API specification underscores CPU and Memory fields: “--cpu-count … Required.” and “--memory-mb … Required.” for a VM class.

While network adapters, PCI devices, and instance storage can also be added via advanced config, the question asks for two;CPUandMemoryare canonical, always-present VM Class resources per the core definition above.

===========

In VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0, the construct of VM Applications Organizations was deprecated in favor of All Applications Organizations. The documentation highlights this change:

“Organizations for All Applications provide a unified model for managing both VM and Kubernetes workloads. They support third-party integrations such as Tanzu Salt and Active Directory, and enable deployments to Native Public Cloud endpoints.”

Since the customer upgraded from VCF 5.2, their first new Organization after the upgrade must use the All Applications model. VM Applications Organizations (Option A) are legacy and do not support the full feature set such as NPC or third-party integrations. Option C is incorrect because the Fleet Management API is for monitoring and operational insights, not for creating Organizations.

Therefore, the administrator must create the new Organization as an All Applications Organization in the VCF Automation Provider Management Portal.

VCF 9.0 describes the VKS architecture and explicitly notes: “The Cluster API provides declarative, Kubernetes-style APIs for cluster creation, configuration, and management.” Inputs include resources describing the cluster, VMs, and add-ons. Provisioning flows also presentClusterClass/Cluster APIas the supported “cluster type” when creating a Kubernetes cluster via self-service. These extracts confirm thatCluster APIis the foundational component used by VMware Kubernetes Service (VKS) on vSphere Supervisor to bootstrap and manage Kubernetes workload clusters in VCF 9.0.

===========

VCF provides integrated automation and orchestration for Day 0–2 operations, including networking: VCF is a “full-stack IaaS” with “automation and orchestration to simplify Day 0, Day 1, and Day 2 tasks.” VCF supports modern apps: users can provision “VMs” and “Kubernetes workloads” from self-service services, proving both VM and container support. Multi-tenancy with strong isolation is native: Organizations are “secure and isolated” boundaries; All Apps organizations run “virtual machines (VMs), Kubernetes… multiple tenants with secure infrastructure isolation.”

Incorrect choices: VCF is not limited to vSAN only (supports VMFS/NFS/CNS as documented elsewhere) and does not rely on manual scalability—automation is core. Compliance is provided within the private cloud, not only by a CSP.
