What is the VMware-recommended best practice for Fibre Channel zoning?
Answer : D
Explanation:
With ESXi hosts, use a single-initiator zoning or a single-initiator-single-target zoning. The latter is a preferred zoning practice. Using the more restrictive zoning prevents problems and misconfigurations that can occur on the SAN.

Which storage feature always requires the use of third-party software on ESXi?
Answer : A
Explanation:
With the hardware acceleration, ESXi hosts can integrate with NAS devices and use several hardware operations that NAS storage provides. The hardware acceleration uses vSphere APIs for Array Integration (VAAI) to facilitate communications between the hosts and storage devices.

An ESXi host's VMCA-Signed certificate has expired. How can the certificate be renewed?
Answer : D
Explanation:
You can renew your certificates when they are about to expire, or if you want to provision the host with a new certificate for other reasons. If the certificate is already expired, you must disconnect the host and reconnect it.

Which iSCSI initiator type can be used with any network interface card?
Answer : A
Explanation:
Software iSCSI Adapter -
A software iSCSI adapter is a VMware code built into the VMkernel. It allows your host to connect to the iSCSI storage device through standard network adapters.
The software iSCSI adapter handles iSCSI processing while communicating with the network adapter. With the software iSCSI adapter, you can use iSCSI technology without purchasing specialized hardware.

An administrator is attempting to power on a virtual machine with 32GB of memory. The operation fails with the following error:
Could not power on VM: No space left on device
Checking the space on the virtual machine's datastore, there is 30GB free.
Which action would allow the VM to power on?
Answer : A
Explanation:
The swap file size can be calculated with the formula (.vswp File = Allocated Memory - Memory Reservation).
As per default, the reservation is set to 0, so the .vswp file size is equal to the amount of virtual memory.
When using "Cluster resource percentage" for host failover capacity in vSphere HA Admission Control, the total resource requirements are calculated from which two values? (Choose two.)
