An ESXi 5.x host disconnects within 60 seconds after the administrator adds it to the

VCenter Server inventory. The administrator determines that the issue could be related to a

networking problem. Which networking port should the administrator check for connectivity

from the host to vCenter Server?

An administrator adds an ESXI 5.x host to the inventory of a vCenter Server that is
configured with a vSphere Distributed Switch. The VSphere Web Client indicates that the
host is not responding. The administrator determines from the command line that the vpxa
agent is stopped.
What should the administrator do to resolve this issue without affecting the uptime of the
virtual machines running on the host?

to the virtual switch, violating corporate policy. The vSphere administrator examines the
properties for vSwitch1 , as shown in the exhibit:

Which configuration explains why the virtual machine is receiving all traffic sent to
vSwitch1?

An administrator receives notice of a large number of ARP table issues. The issues began
after a maintenance window 36 hours ago. The issue did not exist prior to the maintenance
window.
Which change was made to the port group that is causing the ARP table issue?

A VSphere administrator attempts to manually vMotion a virtual machine but receives error
messages related to the Shared storage datastore shown in the exhibit.
The administrator uses the VSphere Web Client and locates the datastore setings shown:
Which action should the administrator take to resolve these errors?

A SAN administrator recently installed a storage encryption switch on the Fibre Channel
Fabric. Shortly after the deployment, several new VMFS5 datastores recently created were
dismounted. Attempts to manually mount them fail. VMFS5 upgraded datastores are
unaffected. All storage arrays in use support VASA and VAAI.
What is the root cause of this problem?

An administrator is using esxtop to troubleshoot a storage performance issue.

Which parameter should the administrator check to monitor any storage-related VSphere

overhead?

An error occurs while building a new virtual rnachine with a thin provisioned virtual disk size
of 20GB. The datastore has 35GB of free space. The datastore is overcommitted by 95GB.
What is preventing the virtual machine frorm being built?

A vSphere administrator configures a preferred heartbeat datastore in an HA/DRS Custer
configuration. The vCenter Server identifies an alternative preferred datastore.
Why would vCenter Server identify an alternative preferred datastore over the
administrator's preference?

The Ioad is high on a HA/DRS cluster. DPM is enabled. A vSphere administrator
determines that hosts are NOT powering on automatically to support the Ioad.
Which oonfiguration would result in this condition?

The Ioad on a Fulty Automated HA/DRS cluster is critically unbalanced.

What condition could cause this issue?

A vSphere administrator determines that more metrics are available for viewing in the
real time view than are available in the daily view for a virtual machine.
What is the reason for this discrepancy in the number of available metrics?

A VMware admlnistrator determines that the active memory on an ESXi 5.x host is 20%

and the consumed memory is 90%.

How much Host memory is available to virtual machines?

The vSphere administrator needs to check the system health of an ESXi 5.x host using the

vSphere Web Client. Which option in the Monitor tab should the administrator use for the

selected host?

A vSphere administrator needs to configure the envirorunent to send a notification to a
monitored email address every time a vSphere alarm is triggered.
Which procedure should the administrator use to accomplish the task?

Which default alarm definition will send a notification trap if the redundant storage path is

lost?

The vCentecr Operations Manager dashboard is showing Health issues associated with the
selected virtual machine. There have been no availability or configuration issues with the
virtual machine, and the workload badge is still green:
How should an administrator resolve this issue?

Time Remaining, Capacity Remaining, and Stress are minor badges of which major badge

in vCenter Operations Manager?

Which minor badge items make up the Efficiency badge score for an ESXi host in VCenter

Operations Manager?

An administrator is configuring iSCSI for use with a vSphere 5.x environment.

Which networking feature should be configured on the ESXi host to improve iSCSI performance?

An administrator must perform maintenance on a fibre channel switch connected to vmhba2 on an ESXi 5.x host. The host has been configured with the Fixed policy, and the preferred path will be impacted by the maintenance event.

Which procedure is the least disruptive option that can be taken to prepare for the maintenance event?

Which vSphere 5.x feature provides for the dynamic allocation of storage capacity for individual virtual machines?

Your colleague needs to build a very large virtual machine and has asked you what the largest supported VMDK size is within a vSphere 5.5 environment. What will be your response?

Which three Path Selection Policies are supported by default in vSphere 5.x? (Choose three.)

A company has been utilizing templates in its environment. It is running a 10-node ESXi 5.x Cluster and DRS has not been configured. Several virtual machines have been deployed from this template and successfully powered on, but a newly deployed virtual machine will not power on. There appears to be adequate CPU and Memory resources available on the host.

Which three things can be done to allow more virtual machines to be deployed into the cluster from this template? (Choose three.)

What is the connection type of the primary VLAN in a Private VLAN?

An administrator determines that a virtual machine configured for the Development port group lost network connectivity when it was migrated with vMotion from one ESXi 5.x host to another. The administrator notices that machines configured for the Production port group are not experiencing the issue. The hosts have port groups with the following network configuration:

Host A:

1. Production (VLAN 100)

2. Development

Host B:

1. Production (VLAN 100)

2. Development (VLAN 200)

Which two conditions would explain the loss of network connectivity for the virtual machine? (Choose two.)

VMware vSphere 5.5 supports which two new features for the Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS)? (Choose two.)

Which functionality does vSphere 5.x High Availability provide?

What two things are controlled by the DRS automation level? (Choose two.)

Which condition produces a warning message but will allow a VMotion migration to proceed?

You have 50 virtual machines (VMs) that have been running within a 5-node ESXi 5.x DRS cluster for a number of weeks. Several VMs running on one of the hosts suddenly show the Blue Screen of Death.

What is the most likely cause of the failure?

VMware vSphere 5.x can be evaluated prior to purchase. What is the maximum number of days the evaluation can be used before a license must be purchased?

What is a valid traffic shaping adjustment in a vSphere 5.x environment?

An ESXi 5.x host is configured to access an iSCSI target using CHAP authentication.

What happens to the access if CHAP is disabled on the host?

An administrator has a mixture of Intel-based ESXi 5.x hosts in a DRS cluster where the CPUs are compatible in every way except that some support the NX/XD feature and some do not.

Which vSwitch or vSwitch port group policy setting allows a virtual machine to listen to traffic other than that which is specifically destined for the given VM?

An administrator is configuring a vSphere 5.x Standard Switch for load balancing. The physical network is configured for switch-assisted load balancing using EtherChannel.

Which load-balancing policy must be used to support this configuration?
