An administrator is tasked with upgrading a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) infrastructure having two VCF instances running across two sites with NSX federation. What should be considered regarding the NSX Managers upgrade order in this environment?
A.
1. Upgrade all NSX Local Managers at both sites manually 2. Upgrade active NSX Global Managers via SDDC Manager 3. Upgrade standby NSX Global Managers via SDDC Manager
B.
1. Upgrade all NSX Local Managers at both sites via SDDC Manager 2. Upgrade standby NSX Global Managers manually 3. Upgrade active NSX Global Managers manually
C.
1. Upgrade all NSX Local Managers at both sites manually 2. Upgrade standby NSX Global Managers via SDDC Manager 3. Upgrade active NSX Global Managers via SDDC Manager
D.
1. Upgrade all NSX Local Managers at both sites via SDDC Manager 2. Upgrade active NSX Global Managers manually 3. Upgrade standby NSX Global Managers manually
When upgrading a VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) infrastructure with two VCF instances and NSX federation, the administrator should manually upgrade the NSX Global Managers for each VCF instance separately, ensuring to upgrade the standby Global Manager before the active one; the SDDC Manager does not manage the lifecycle of the NSX Global Managers in a federated environment, so this upgrade needs to be done manually for each site.
Key points to remember:
Manual upgrade: In a federated NSX environment, upgrading NSX Global Managers must be done manually, not through the SDDC Manager.
Standby first: When upgrading the Global Managers, always upgrade the standby cluster before the active cluster.
Upgrade order per site: Upgrade the NSX Global Managers for each VCF site independently.
Upgrade NSX to 4.2 using SDDC Manager
[Optional] If you are upgrading by component rather than by workload domain, upgrade NSX across all VI workload domains now.
NSX upgrades across VI workload domains can be completed in sequence or up to five in parallel.
