VMware Certified Professional - Cloud Management and Automation Intermediate Practice Exam: Medium Difficulty 2025

An administrator is deploying VMware Aria Automation in a distributed architecture for a production environment that requires high availability. The organization has three availability zones and needs to ensure the control plane remains operational if one zone fails. Which deployment approach should the administrator implement?

A cloud administrator needs to integrate an existing VMware vSphere environment with Aria Automation. The environment contains multiple vCenter Server instances across different data centers. After adding the first cloud account, deployments are failing with resource allocation errors. What is the most likely cause and solution?

An organization wants to implement a multi-cloud strategy using Aria Automation with AWS and Azure alongside their existing vSphere environment. Each cloud platform should have separate cost tracking and project isolation. What configuration approach should the administrator implement?

A developer is creating a cloud template that needs to deploy a three-tier application (web, app, database) with specific network isolation requirements. The web tier should be publicly accessible, while the app and database tiers should only communicate with each other on private networks. Which cloud template design approach accomplishes this?

An administrator needs to create a cloud template that allows users to select different t-shirt sizes (small, medium, large) for their deployments, with each size having different CPU, memory, and storage configurations. The template should work across both vSphere and AWS cloud zones. What is the best approach to implement this requirement?

A company requires that all deployments include automatic tagging for cost center, environment type, and owner information. Some of this information should come from the requesting user's profile, while other data should be entered at deployment time. How should an administrator implement this tagging strategy in Aria Automation?

An administrator needs to implement a Day 2 operation that allows users to resize their deployed virtual machines by changing CPU and memory allocations. The operation should be available in the Aria Automation service catalog and support both scale-up and scale-down scenarios. What components must be configured?

A service broker administrator needs to implement an approval policy where deployments requesting more than 8 vCPUs require manager approval, deployments with 4-8 vCPUs require team lead approval, and deployments under 4 vCPUs are auto-approved. The policy should apply to all projects. How should this be configured?

After a recent infrastructure update, users report that their cloud template deployments are failing with errors indicating insufficient storage resources, even though the vSphere environment has available storage. The storage policies in vSphere haven't changed. What should the administrator investigate first?

An organization wants to implement lease management for deployed resources to control costs. Development deployments should have a maximum lease of 7 days with one possible extension, while production deployments should have no expiration. Both deployment types use the same cloud templates but different projects. What is the most efficient way to configure this?
