Q

A vSphere administrator has created a Virtual SAN cluster with Automatic Mode Disk Goups. 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 Fibre Channel array and have no local disks attached. The four new hosts need additional shared storage but there is insufficient space on the fibre channel array. The hardware budget is limited.What can the administrator do to provide the needed storage for the lowest cost?

  • Add the four new hosts to the Virtual SAN Cluster and contribute the fibre channel disks to the Virtual SAN
  • Add the four new hosts to the Virtual SAN cluster and use the existing storage in the cluster
  • Add an SAS RAID controller to each of the new hosts. Attach one SSD and six SAS disks to each RAID controller and then add the four hosts to the Virtual SAN cluster
  • Add the four new hosts to the Virtual SAN Cluster and change to Manual Mode Disk Groups

Q

An administrator decreases the CPU share value for two virtual machines in a DRS cluster from 1000 to 100 shares. The DRS cluster contains more resources than both virtual machines can consume.The characteristics of the VMs are listed below:

  • The second virtual machine is a clone of the first virtual machine.
  • Both VM’s are identical in every way.
  • Both VM’s are not attached to the IP network.
  • Both VM’s are powered on.

What impact on the virtual machines performance will be observed?

  • The original VM will perform better than the clone when contention occurs.
  • The VM’s will have equal performance under normal conditions and reduced performance when contention occurs
  • The performance of the VM’s will reduce by a factor of ten once the share value is adjusted.
  • The VM’s will have equal performance under all conditions.

Q

An organization is designing a new vSphere cluster to support a new product implementation. The following challenges have been identified by the vSphere administration team:

  • The organization has the vSphere Enterprise License.
  • The network team needs to gather virtual machine network statistics over a long period of time.
  • The network team needs the ability to quickly assess virtual machine traffic in the event of an attack.
  • The network team has previously had problems implementing manual etherchannel configurations on their physical switches, resulting in production outages.

The new cluster’s initial size is 15 hosts. The organization is willing to upgrade to vSphere Enterprise Plus licensing if it addresses these challenges.

Which three features of a version 5.5 vSphere distributed Switch would address these challenges? (Choose three.)

  • Network I/O Control
  • Network vMotion
  • LACP in Dynamic Mode
  • Port Mirroring
  • Private VLAN’s

Q

An administrator needs to unmount a datastore that is also used for HA storage heartbeats.

What is the least disruptive method for an adminstrator to perform this activity on a slave HA host?

  • On the Datastore Heartbeating tab, unmount the datastore normally and confirm a new datastore has been selected.
  • On the datastore Heartbeating tab, specify an alternate datastore, then unmount the datastore normally.
  • Disable HA datastore heartbeats, then unmount the datastore.
  • Reduce the number of heartbeat datastores, then remote the datastore from the heartbeat list.

Q

a vSphere administrator enables and configures a Software iSCSI Initiator , and configures an iSCSI vmkernel portgorup with Port Binding. The SAN administrator creates a few LUNs on an iSCSI server however, when the vSphere administrator adds the IP address of the iSCSI server in the Dynamic Discovery list, no iSCSI targets ae detected.

Which condition would result in this behavior?

  • The iSCSI server IP address should be entered in the Static Discovery instead of Dynmaic Discovery list.
  • The iSCSI vmkernel portgroup and the iSCSI server are on different subnets.
  • The network card bound to the iSCSI portgroup is 1Gbps Ethernet instaed of 10Gbps.
  • a Software iSCSI initiator cannot use Port Binding in conjunction with Dynamic Discovery.
