You are installing a new vSphere environment- You have configured a dedicated 1GB Ethernet
network for your storage devices. Which two types of shared storage does vSphere support in this
configuration? (Choose two.)
A.
NFS
B.
Fibre Channel
C.
CIFS
D.
iSCSI
Explanation:
What about iSCSI?
I think A,C is correct. For iSCSI See this http://www.vmware.com/pdf/iscsi_storage_esx.pdf
Your document points to A,D being correct.
Newer generations of network-based storage attempt to share existing infrastructure, while combining ideas from the storage industry, such as fast, reliable transport of data. Gigabit Ethernet, for speed, and TCP, for reliability, represent this combination for the latest versions of NFS and iSCSI. iSCSI uses the sharing and virtualization capabilities of a traditional SAN, but also includes the low-cost infrastructure of a traditional Ethernet.
Definately iSCSI and NFS … you can’t add any other type of storage as a datastore.
CIFS is activedirectory/ldap authenticated file shares!!! not vm datastores
Agree with the others, NFS or iSCSI
A & D definitely
i think A & D
Let’s examine the concept of a Datastore.
A datastore is a logical container that holds virtual machine files and other files necessary for virtual machine operations. Datastores can exist on different types of physical storage, including local storage, iSCSI, Fibre Channel SAN, or NFS. A datastore can be VMFS-based or NFS-based.
1GB Ethernet network rules out Fibre Channel SAN, local storage can only be shared via VSA, so answers are A and D.

A and D, Correct Answers
