A network auditing team has observed activity from a virtual machine that may be an organization policy security breach. The vSphere administrator needs to stop network traffic from the virtual machine.
Which step should the administrator take?

  • A. Enable Port Blocking on the vSphere Standard Switches in the organization and block the port on which the virtual machine is connected.
  • B. Enable Port Blocking on each vSphere Standard Switch portgroup in the organization, then block the port on which the virtual machine is connected.
  • C. Enable Port Blocking on each vSphere Distributed Switch portgroup in the organization, then block the port on which the virtual machine is connected.
  • D. Enable Port Blocking on the vSphere Distributed Switches in the organization and block the port on which the virtual machine is connected.

Why is the network configuration shown in the exhibit impossible?

  • A. A single vmnic cannot be shared by two virtual switches.
  • B. The MAC address of the Management Network VMkernel port is invalid.
  • C. Virtual machines are not allowed to run on the same virtual machine port group as the vCenter Server Virtual Appliance.
  • D. Virtual Machine Port Groups and VMkernel Ports are not allowed on the same virtual switch.


Answer : A

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. Migrate the virtual machine to a standard switch that has been configured for ingress traffic shaping
  • B. Configure the distributed switch to which the virtual machine is connected for ingress traffic shaping
  • C. Migrate the virtual machine to a different port group on the same distributed switch
  • D. Enable Network I/O Control on the standard switch to which the virtual machine is connected

A vSphere administrator assigns VLAN 3389 to the Production port group on the
VCP_DCV_Example vSphere Distributed Switch. After the change, users report a loss of connectivity to their applications. Further analysis provides the following data:
The cluster has not had a ESXi host failure.
Application functioned normally prior to the change.
The loss of connectivity occurred immediately following the change.
Which condition would cause this loss of connectivity?
A. The physical switch ports used by the vmnics have not been configured with 802.1Q.
B. Maintenance Mode was initiated on one of the hosts in the cluster. Connectivity will resume after the virtual machines are migrated.
C. All uplinks were removed from the VCP_DCV_Example switch and added to another virtual switch.
D. A load balancing setting on the port group conflicts with the load balancing setting of the switch.



Answer : A Topic 3, Plan and Configure vSphere Storage

Which controller is recommended for high disk I/O workloads?

  • A. BusLogic Parallel
  • B. LSI Logic Parallel
  • C. LSI Logic SAS
  • D. VMware Paravirtual


Answer : D

What is a characteristic of Virtual SAN?

  • A. It supports Virtual Machine Storage Policies.
  • B. It supports multiple Virtual SAN clusters for each host.
  • C. It supports native snapshots and SE Sparse disks.
  • D. It supports storage attached through USB, Fibre Channel, or iSCSI.


Answer : A

Which two statements are true regarding a new vSphere deployment that is using software
FCoE boot from SAN? (Choose two.)

  • A. Multi-pathing options must be configured by the vmkernel after boot.
  • B. The adapter must support iBFT or UEFI.
  • C. The adapter must support FBFT or FBPT.
  • D. Multi-pathing options must be configured in the Boot ROM.


Answer : A,C

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

  • A. Bind the VMkernel ports to the software iSCSI initiator
  • B. Configure Zoning between the hosts and SAN switches
  • C. Configure NIC teaming on the associated uplinks
  • D. Ensure jumbo frames are enabled end-to-end


Answer : A

A Windows Server 2008 virtual machine with the following configuration receives an Out of
Space condition indicator:
The virtual machine uses thin provisioned virtual disks.
The VMFS5 datastore on which the virtual machine's files reside is on a thin provisioned
LUN.
30% of the VMFS datastore content is no longer needed.
The storage array supports VASA and VAAI.
Which action should the vSphere administrator take to resolve the Out of Space problem without requesting additional space on the storage array?

  • A. Delete unneeded files on the VMFS datastore and then use vmkfstools to reclaim deleted blocks.
  • B. Delete unneeded files on the VMFS datastore, right-click the datastore in vSphere Web Client, and then select the Reclaim Deleted Blocks option.
  • C. Delete some files from the guest OS and defrag its file system.
  • D. Delete some files from the guest OS and use vmkfstools to reclaim the deleted blocks.


Answer : A

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?

  • A. Upgrade the datastore to VMFS 5. Select the 1MB block size option during the upgrade.
  • B. Create a new VMFS5 datastore with a 1MB block size. Migrate all virtual machines from the existing datastore to the new datastore, then delete the VMFS3 datastore.
  • C. Upgrade the datastore to VMFS5. Use vmkfstools to change the block size on the upgraded datastore.
  • D. Create a new VMFS5 datastore with a 1MB block size. Migrate all virtual machines from the existing datastore to the new datastore. Upgrade the virtual machine hardware on the migrated VMs, then delete the VMFS3 datastore.


Answer : B

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?

  • A. New Storage Devices and LUNs
  • B. New Storage Devices and VMFS Volumes
  • C. New VMFS Volumes and Datastores
  • D. New VMFS Volumes and LUNs

Which field should an administrator add to a Virtual SAN Disk Group under the Device
Backing settings to monitor the health of disks in the Disk Group?

  • A. Issue
  • B. Operational Status
  • C. Capacity
  • D. Transport Type


Answer : A

A new LUN has been created on an iSCSI array and assigned to an ESXi 5.x server .
However, when the administrator logs in to the vSphere Web Client the LUN is not visible.
Other LUNs on the iSCSI array are visible.
What should the administrator do to resolve this issue?

  • A. Rescan for the new storage device
  • B. Ensure the LUN is zoned correctly
  • C. Add the new LUN to the Static Discovery list
  • D. Ensure the CHAP settings are correctly configured


Answer : A

Which steps should an administrator take to migrate existing ESXi 5.x virtual machines to a storage over-subscription model?

  • A. Right-click the .vmdk file, and click Deflate.
  • B. Right-click the .vmdk file, and click Compress.
  • C. Right-click the virtual machine, click Migrate, select the same datastore, and select Thin Provision.
  • D. Right-click the virtual machine, click Migrate, select a different datastore, and select Thin Provision.


Answer : D

An administrator has created a Virtual SAN Cluster using Automatic Mode Disk Groups.
There is very little storage space left in the cluster. The administrator has access to an iSCSI storage array.
Which approach should the administrator take to expand the Virtual SAN Cluster?

  • A. Add new hosts to the cluster with available local disks then click the Claim Disks icon in the Disk Management section under the Virtual SAN tab.
  • B. Add new disks to the hosts in the cluster then click the Claim Disks icon in the Disk Management section under the Virtual SAN tab.
  • C. Add new hosts to the cluster with available local disk. No further action is required to claim the added storage.
  • D. Provision new LUNs on the iSCSI storage and present one LUN to each host in the cluster. No further action is required to claim the added storage.
