An administrator is debugging a multi-machine VMware Aria Automation template deployment and the following
error occurs:
"Customization operation failed. Customization specification with name [vCenter_Windows] was not found."
Where can the administrator identify the phase of the provisioning lifecycle and the machine for which this error occurred?
Answer : B
When an error such as 'Customization operation failed. Customization specification with name [vCenter_Windows] was not found' occurs during a multi-machine VMware Aria Automation template deployment, the administrator can identify the phase of the provisioning lifecycle and the specific machine for which the error occurred by navigating to the Deployments > Topology section. The Topology view provides a detailed visualization of the deployment process, including the stages each machine goes through, allowing the administrator to pinpoint exactly where the error happened within the deployment workflow.

Which VMware Aria Automation role is required to create a content source and thereby import VMware Aria Automation templates into the catalog?
Answer : B
The role required to create a content source and thereby import VMware Aria Automation templates into the catalog is the VMware Aria Automation Assembler Administrator. This role has the necessary permissions to manage content sources, including creating and configuring them to import templates. This role is responsible for setting up and maintaining the templates and blueprints used for provisioning resources within VMware Aria Automation, ensuring they are available in the catalog for users to deploy.

An administrator is building a VMware Aria Automation Cloud Template to allow the destination cloud to be selected via a dropdown at request time.
Where must the administrator configure capability tags to support this requirement?
Answer : B
To allow the selection of the destination cloud via a dropdown at request time in a VMware Aria Automation Cloud Template, the administrator must configure capability tags in the Cloud Zones. Capability tags are used to tag resources with specific capabilities or properties. By tagging Cloud Zones, administrators can define which resources are available for deployment based on the tags selected at request time. This enables users to choose from a list of cloud environments that match the specified capability tags, providing flexibility and control over where workloads are deployed.

A new user that has been tasked with designing some workflow-based extensibility logs into VMware Aha Automation for the first time. Upon login, the user is presented with the attached screenshot. Security policy states each user should have the minimum set of privileges to achieve the role.
Which step must the Organization Administrator take to resolve the issue?
Answer : D
The VMware Aria Automation Orchestrator Workflow Designer role is specifically designed for users who need to create and manage workflows within VMware Aria Automation. Assigning this role to the user will provide them with the necessary permissions to access the workflow design functionalities and carry out their tasks effectively. This aligns with the security policy of providing the minimum set of privileges required for the role, ensuring that users have the capabilities they need without unnecessary additional permissions.

What is the purpose of using a custom form?
Answer : D
The purpose of using a custom form in VMware Aria Automation is to customize the input parameters and enhance a request form. This allows administrators to tailor the user interface and input fields according to specific requirements, improving the user experience and ensuring that all necessary information is collected efficiently during the request process.
Which two network types support the ability to deploy on-demand security groups? (Choose two.)
Answer : A, E
In VMware Aria Automation, certain network types support the ability to deploy on-demand security groups. These include:
Routed Networks (A) - Routed networks, also known as routed network profiles, support the deployment of on-demand networks and security groups. This type allows dynamic creation of network segments with their own subnets, routers, and firewall rules.
Private Networks (E) - Private networks, while not publicly accessible, support on-demand security groups for isolating and securing the deployed resources within the private network scope.
These network types facilitate enhanced security and flexibility, allowing administrators to enforce network security policies dynamically as new workloads are deployed.

An administrator configures a lease policy with the following settings:
* Maximum lease (days): 10
* Maximum total lease (days): 30
* Grace period (days): 5
If a user does not respond to any emails, after how many days will the deployment be destroyed?
Answer : D
In VMware Aria Automation, lease policies dictate how long a deployment remains active. The lease policy consists of three primary parameters:
Maximum lease (days): 10 - This is the maximum number of days a deployment can stay active before it must be renewed.
Maximum total lease (days): 30 - This is the cumulative maximum number of days a deployment can be renewed to stay active.
Grace period (days): 5 - This is the number of additional days provided after the lease expires for the user to take action before the deployment is destroyed.
With the above settings, the deployment will follow this timeline:
Initially, the deployment is active for the maximum lease period of 10 days.
After 10 days, if not renewed, the deployment enters the grace period.
During the grace period, which lasts for 5 days, the deployment remains active but is marked for deletion.
If the user does not respond or renew the lease, the deployment is destroyed at the end of the grace period.
Therefore, after the 30-day maximum total lease (10 days initially + maximum 20 days of renewals), an additional 5-day grace period is provided. The total period before the deployment is destroyed is 35 days (30 days + 5 days).
