Question 5

What Master Workflow State is used to accomplish this example: Prepare for the machine to be created on the hypervisor. Create a configuration management database (CMDB) record, call out to an external system to assign an IP Address to a machine, and then during machine disposal, use WFStubMachineDisposing to return the IP Address to the pool.

Answer 5

BuildingMachine

Question 6

What Master Workflow State is used to accomplish this example: Add an imported machine to an application provisioning tool to receive updates and undergo compliance checks

Answer 6

RegisterMachine

Question 7

What Master Workflow State is used to accomplish this example: The machine exists on the hypervisor, and any additional customizations are completed at this point, for example guest agent customizations. Use this workflow stub to update a configuration management database (CMDB) record with DHCP IP Address and storage information. Customizations made by using the WFStubMachineProvisioned are typically reversed usingthe WFSTubUnprovisionMachine.

Answer 7

MachineProvisioned

Question 8

What Master Workflow State is used to accomplish this example: Move an expired machine to low cost storage to reduce archival costs and update the CMDP record and billing system to reflect storage and cost changes.

Answer 8

Expired

Question 9

What Master Workflow State is used to accomplish this example: Removes machines from active directory accounts. Customizations made by using the WFStubMachineProvisioned are typically reversed by using WFStubUnprovisionMachine

Answer 9
