Correct Statements Regarding vRealize Automation Nested Blueprints

BD.

Sure, I can explain the concepts related to vRealize Automation nested blueprints and clarify which statements are correct.

vRealize Automation (vRA) is a cloud automation platform that enables users to deploy and manage applications and infrastructure across multiple clouds and platforms. One of the key features of vRA is the ability to create blueprints, which are templates that define the resources and configurations required to deploy an application or service. Nested blueprints are a type of blueprint that allow users to incorporate one or more blueprints within another blueprint.

Now, let's go through each statement and determine if it is correct or not:

A. When working in an outer blueprint, an administrator CANNOT drag and drop a software component onto a machine component within a nested blueprint.

This statement is correct. When working in an outer blueprint, it is not possible to directly add or modify resources within a nested blueprint. To modify resources within a nested blueprint, you need to edit the nested blueprint directly.

B. Transport zone settings defined in the outer blueprints override transport zone settings defined in nested blueprints.

This statement is incorrect. Transport zone settings defined in the outer blueprint do not override transport zone settings defined in nested blueprints. In fact, nested blueprints can have their own transport zone settings, which can override the transport zone settings of the outer blueprint.

C. If a user is entitled to the top-most blueprint and NOT the inner blueprint(s), vRA will display an error.

This statement is correct. If a user is entitled to the top-most blueprint but not the nested blueprints, vRA will display an error when the user attempts to deploy the blueprint. This is because the nested blueprints are required for the deployment of the top-most blueprint.

D. All networking and security components in outer blueprints can be associated with machines that are defined in nested blueprints.

This statement is incorrect. While it is possible to associate networking and security components in outer blueprints with machines in nested blueprints, it is not a requirement. Networking and security components can be defined and associated at any level of the blueprint hierarchy.

In summary, the correct statements regarding vRealize Automation nested blueprints are:

• When working in an outer blueprint, an administrator CANNOT drag and drop a software component onto a machine component within a nested blueprint.
• If a user is entitled to the top-most blueprint and NOT the inner blueprint(s), vRA will display an error.
