Question 1

TASK 8

As the Cloud Administrator, you must ensure that each virtual machine deployed by the Neptune Project is configured to a standard state.

You have already created a state file in the environment that can be used to meet this requirement.

The following tasks need to be completed:

Update the existing Neptune VMware Cloud Template to ensure that:

* The vRealize Automation SaltStack Config minion is installed during deployment.

* The base configuration state file is always run during deployment. The minion id of the machine should be dynamically assigned using the machine name.

* A secret should be used to ensure the remote access password is not visible within the cloud template.

NOTE: Do not deploy the Cloud template.

The following information has been provided to assist you in these tasks:

Answer Options
Correct Answer: A
Explanation

To update the existing Neptune VMware Cloud Template with the requirements for the Neptune Project, you would follow these steps:

Install the vRealize Automation SaltStack Config Minion During Deployment:

Open the existing Neptune Ubuntu Cloud Template in the vRealize Automation Cloud Assembly.

Add the SaltStack Config resource to the cloud template by dragging it to the canvas and attaching it to the machine resource1.

In the code pane, add the following properties to the SaltStack Config resource:

Cloud_SaltStack_1:

type: Cloud.SaltStack

properties:

masterId: saltstack_enterprise_installer

hosts:

- '${resource.Cloud_VM_1.id}'

saltEnvironment: sse

stateFiles:

- /neptune/base/init.sls

Dynamically Assign the Minion ID Using the Machine Name:

By default, the machine's name is passed in as the minion ID in SaltStack Config. Ensure that the machine names are appropriately set to be used as minion IDs.

Use a Secret for the Remote Access Password:

In the Cloud Assembly, go toInfrastructure > Administration > Secrets, and create a new secret with the namesalt-passwordand the value of the remote access password2.

Refer to the secret directly in your Cloud Assembly cloud template by using the prefixsecret.and the name of your property:

inputs:

...

resources:

Cloud_Machine_1:

type: Cloud.Machine

properties:

...

remoteAccess:

authentication: usernamePassword

username: salt-user

password: '${secret.salt-password}'

By incorporating these changes, the Neptune VMware Cloud Template will install the SaltStack Config minion during deployment, run the base configuration state file, and use a secret to secure the remote access password.
