Which minor badge scores are used to calculate the Health score in vCenter Operations

Manager?

A small company wants to use VMware products for its production systems. The system

administrator needs to recommend a solution that will deliver High Availability to the

company's production applications.

What is minimum vSphere offering that will support this requirement?

A developer needs to create a multi-tier development stack for a home lab.

Which vSphere product will support the architecture required for the least software cost?

An administrator is unable to login to vCenter Server when using the vSphere web client.

The administrator successfully accessed vCenter Server using the client earlier the same

day.

What is the most appropriate first step the administrator should take to resolve this issue?

What is a valid plug-in status for a plug-in that has been added to a vSphere client?

An administrator is evaluating whether to deploy vCenter Server on a Windows server or

on a vCenter Server appliance. The administrator has the following requirements:

•A web browser will be utilized to manage the vSphere environment.

•16 ESXi hosts will be deployed.

•Licenses must be shared with a vCenter Server at another site.

•An external Oracle 10g database server will be used to host the vCenter Server database.

Why will the administrator need to deploy vCenter Server on a Windows server?

Immediately after installing ESXi, an administrator observes that the Configure Lockdown

Mode option is grayed out in the Direct Console User Interface (DCUI).

What is the most likely explanation?

An administrator is installing ESXi on several hosts attached to iSCSI storage.

Why would the administrator detach the host from the IP storage network prior to

installation?

During the installation of ESXi 5.5, the following error message is reported:

Hardware Virtualization is not a feature of the CPU, or is not enabled in the BIOS.

Which condition would generate this message?

What is the minimum virtual machine compatibility setting required for a virtual machine to

run on a vSphere 5.5 host?

Which is the simplest baseline group combination an administrator could create to upgrade

hosts, VMware tools, and virtual machine hardware to the latest versions using Update

Manager?

During an upgrade, the ESXi 5.x installer finds an existing version of ESXi and a VMFS3

volume. No virtual machines exist on the host or VMFS3 volume. The requirement is to

upgrade to VMFS5.

Which option should be chosen to meet this requirement?

What happens to the status of users already logged into ESXi Shell when a vSphere

administrator enables lockdown mode?

The vSphere administrator attempts to connect to an ESXi host via an SSH client and

receives the following security alert:

The vSphere administrator needs to determine whether the RSA key fingerprint shown in

the security alert is the fingerprint of the intended ESXi host.

Which tool should the vSphere administrator use?

The vSphere administrator is configuring directory services for an ESXi host:

What should the vSphere administrator do to configure the host to use CAM services?

A vSphere Standard Switch is configured with two uplinks.

When adjusting the failover order of the uplinks, what are two valid states in which an

administrator can place the uplinks? (Choose two.)

A vSphere Standard Switch is configured with two uplinks.

When adjusting the failover order of the uplinks, what are two valid states in which an

administrator can place the uplinks? (Choose two.)

An administrator determines that a vSphere Standard Switch is dropping all inbound

frames to a specific virtual machine. The behavior appeared in the last two days. Which

configuration setting, if changed during this timeframe, would result in this behavior?

Which two network settings are available on a vSphere Standard Switch? (Choose two.)

A security team is validating policy settings in a vSphere environment.

By default, which security policy is set to reject on a vSphere Standard Switch?

A vSphere administrator upgrades a version 5.1.0 vSphere Distributed Switch to version

5.5.0. Another vSphere administrator, unaware of this change, tries to add an ESXi version

5.1.0 host to the switch and fails

What is causing this addition of the ESXi host to fail?

A vSphere administrator creates a new vSphere Distributed Switch. The administrator

receives notice from the service desk that a cluster of vSphere hosts has disconnected

from vCenter Server. This disconnect occurred immediately after the new switch was

created.

•This vSphere Distributed Switch is the only distributed switch managed by vCenter.

•The virtual machines are still functional and the applications are still accessible by end

users.

On the ESXi hosts, which step must the vSphere administrator take to allow vCenter

Server to reconnect?

A vSphere administrator is administering a vSphere Distributed Switch port group using the

vSphere Web Client. The port group was configured using Static binding, but the number of

ports must increase as virtual machines are added to the port group.

Which port allocation setting should the administrator use to achieve this goal?

An administrator is deploying vSphere 5.5. The administrator creates a vSphere Distributed

Switch, then uses Auto Deploy to deploy several ESXi hosts. After the hosts are deployed,

the administrator notices that LACP packets are not being sent between them.

Which condition would cause this issue to occur?

A virtual machine is receiving a large number of network packets, which is affecting the

performance of other virtual machines connected to the same virtual network.

What should the vSphere administrator do to resolve the issue?

A virtual machine is unable to communicate with another virtual machine. Both virtual

machines are connected to the Production port group on the same virtual switch and are

running on the same host.

Which configuration is causing the inability of the virtual machines to communicate?

Which two statements are true regarding a new vSphere deployment that is using software

FCoE boot from SAN? (Choose two.)

Which feature requires an administrator to configure an RDM with Virtual Compatibility

Mode?

A virtual machine has the following configuration:

• Thin provisioned virtual disks

• The VMFS datastore on which it resides is on a thin provisioned LUN.

• The storage array is VAAI-enabled.

What is the behavior of the virtual machine when it encounters an out-of-space condition?

What should an administrator do to configure multi-pathing using software iSCSI?

A vSphere administrator observes a problem with the Virtual SAN Cluster Setting as shown:

Which action should the administrator take on the vmkernel portgroup on all hosts used by

Virtual SAN cluster to resolve this problem?

Which statement is true about the hardware configuration for ESXi hosts participating in a virtual SAN?

An administrator has configured a vSphere 5.5 test environment to evaluate the Virtual

SAN feature using Automatic Mode Disk Groups. The administrator needs to disable the

Virtual SAN cluster while preserving the virtual machines running on that cluster.

The administrator has already installed a vSphere 5.5 Client on a Windows 7 desktop and

also has access to the vSphere 5.5 Web Client.

What should the administrator do to disable the Virtual SAN?

A vSphere administrator has created a Virtual SAN Cluster with Automatic Mode Disk

Groups. The cluster includes three ESXi hosts contributing one SSD and six SAS disks each. The administrator has four new ESXi hosts that boot from a fiber channel array and have no local disks attached. These four new hosts need additional shared storage but there is insufficient space on the fiber channel array. The hardware budget is limited.

What can the administrator do to provide the needed storage for the lowest cost?

A customer needs a datastore to be seen across multiple vSphere clusters with

applications inside of the virtual machines that must detect the physical characteristics of

the storage device.

Which type of virtual disk meets this requirement?

The current block size of a datastore in VMFS3 is 4MB. An administrator needs to upgrade

the datastore to VMFS5 and wants to change it to 1MB block size.

Which action should the administrator take?

An administrator needs to use guest OS clustering in a vSphere environment that uses a

Fibre Channel SAN. The clustering software does NOT have a SCSI target or a SCSI

command pass-through requirement.

Which VMware storage type should the administrator use?

Which two CPU features enable the use of 64-bit virtual machines? (Choose two.)

An administrator is creating a new VMFS volume and needs to make it available to all

hosts within a datacenter using the Web Client.

What should the administrator scan for in order to meet this requirement?
