Question 1

What type of migration involves a virtual machine that is powered off to a different shared data store or data store that is accessible by only one host?&#10;A) suspended migration&#10;B) cold migration&#10;C) Storage vMotion migration&#10;D) Enhanced vMotion migration

Accepted Answer

B

Question 2

A VMFS iSCSI based data store can't be dynamically expanded due to the nature of the VMFS file system structure.

Accepted Answer

VMFS (Virtual Machine File System) datastores, including those based on iSCSI, can be dynamically expanded. VMware allows for the expansion of VMFS datastores to accommodate growing storage needs without disrupting the services.

Question 3

What statement regarding the vpxa process is accurate?&#10;A) The vpxa process is responsible for managing most of the operations on the ESXi host.&#10;B) The vpxa process controls access to the virtual machines and storage volumes on an ESXi host.&#10;C) The vpxa process serves as an intermediary between the vpxd process and the hostd process.&#10;D) The vpxa process communicates commands from the vSphere client to the hostd process.

Accepted Answer

The vpxa process, also known as the VMware vCenter Server Agent, acts as an intermediary between the vpxd process (running on the vCenter Server) and the hostd process (running on the ESXi host), facilitating communication and commands between the two.

Question 4

You are attempting to migrate a virtual machine to a different host. The new host has an Intel processor, while the old host has an AMD processor. What type of migration must be performed?&#10;A) cold migration&#10;B) suspended migration&#10;C) vMotion migration&#10;D) Enhanced vMotion migration

Accepted Answer

Cold migration is required when moving a virtual machine between hosts with different processor types, such as from AMD to Intel, because it involves shutting down the VM before moving it to ensure compatibility.

Question 5

What guest operating system information does not typically require modification when creating a template?&#10;A) The guest OS hostname&#10;B) The guest OS network settings&#10;C) The guest OS license settings&#10;D) The guest OS partition layout

Accepted Answer

The guest OS partition layout typically does not require modification when creating a template because it is generally designed to be a universal layout that can be deployed across multiple instances without needing customization for each new deployment.

Question 6

What kind of migration allows a powered-on virtual machine to be moved to a new data store?&#10;A) cold migration&#10;B) suspended migration&#10;C) Storage vMotion migration&#10;D) Enhanced vMotion migrtion

Accepted Answer

Storage vMotion migration allows a powered-on virtual machine to be moved to a new data store without downtime.

Question 7

What statement regarding the use of iSCSI extents is accurate?&#10;A) Extents can be added to any VMFS data store, up to 16 extents per data store.&#10;B) An extent can be resized at will, provided there is adequate storage available.&#10;C) A VMFS data store that is created on an extent cannot be resized.&#10;D) A VMFS data store can be expanded as long as there is free space available in the extent.

Accepted Answer

A VMFS data store can indeed be expanded provided there is free space available in the extent, allowing for increased storage capacity without the need to create new data stores.

Question 8

After removing a static software based iSCSI target, you discover hours later that the target has been returned to the list of targets. What is the most likely cause?&#10;A) The static target was added via dynamic discovery, and a rescan operation has re-added it.&#10;B) The static target cannot be removed without deleting all associated data stores utilized by the host.&#10;C) You do not have the proper permissions to remove a static target, causing the job to remove the target to fail.&#10;D) The iSCSI initiator cannot remove a target that has been configured by vCenter Server for use on the host.

Accepted Answer

Static targets added through dynamic discovery can be automatically re-added upon a rescan operation, as the discovery settings persist and can cause the target to reappear.

Question 9

After a virtual machine that has been moved using vMotion comes online, what method is used to notify a network segment that the MAC address for the VM's IP address is now on a different port?&#10;A) The MAC address aging timer must expire, after which a learning period occurs, and the MAC is registered on the new port.&#10;B) A RARP request is sent to notify the network that the MAC is now on a new port.&#10;C) The host forces the network switch to clear it's MAC address table so that the MAC is flooded out all ports.&#10;D) A multicast packet is sent to notify the network of the change.

Accepted Answer

A Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) request is used to notify the network that the MAC address associated with the VM's IP address is now on a different port after a vMotion event. This helps in updating the network's MAC address table to reflect the change in the VM's physical location on the network.

Question 10

Implementing vCenter Server as a stand-alone Linux appliance still requires an Active Directory domain controller.

Accepted Answer

vCenter Server can be deployed as an appliance (VCSA) which includes its own embedded Platform Services Controller (PSC) that can handle authentication and does not require an Active Directory domain controller to function. Users can still integrate it with Active Directory for centralized management, but it is not a requirement for its operation.

Question 11

What is a valid step that should be taken to make using iSCSI technology on a network more secure?&#10;A) The iSCSI traffic should be encrypted using CHAP.&#10;B) The iSCSI traffic should be isolated to a dedicated and separate network.&#10;C) The network should make use of hardware based iSCSI instead of software based iSCSI.&#10;D) The network switches used for the SAN should be iSCSI aware such that they properly hide iSCSI traffic.
