vSphere Cluster Management (part 2)

Which three features are only available when using vSphere Distributed Switches instead of

vSphere Standard Switches? (Choose three.)

• 802.1Q tagging

• Port mirroring

• Netflow

• Configuration backup and restore

• IPv4 support

An administrator is configuring vSphere Lifecycle Manager to install patches to a vSphere cluster.

The cluster runs workload virtual machines (VMs) that are incompatible with vSphere vMotion, and

therefore cannot be live migrated between hosts during the installation of the patches.

Which configuration in vSphere Lifecycle Manager will allow the administrator to reduce the

downtime associated with the patching operation without migrating the VMs?

• Enable Distributed Power Management (DPM) and set the VM power state to the

  suspend to disk option

• Enable Quick Boot ana set the VM power stale to the suspend to disk option

• Enable vSphere High Availability (HA) admission control and set the VM power stale to

  the suspend to memory option

• Enable Quick Boot and set the VM power state to the suspend to memory option

An administrator creates a new corporate virtual machine (VM) template every month to include all

of the latest patches. The administrator needs to ensure that the new VM template is synchronized

from the primary data center site (London) to two secondary data center sites (Tokyo and New

York). The administrator is aware that datastore space is limited within the secondary data center

sites. The administrator needs to ensure that the VM template is available in the secondary sites the first time a new virtual machine is requested.

Which four steps should the administrator take to meet these requirements? (Choose four.)

• Create a new published content library at the primary site.

• Create a new subscribed content library in each secondary site.

• Configure the subscribed content library to download content when needed.

• Configure each subscribed content library to download content immediately

• Add the virtual machine template to the published content library.

An administrator is tasked with migrating a single virtual machine (VM) from an existing VMware

vCenter to a secure environment where corporate security policy requires that all VMs be

encrypted. The secure environment consists of a dedicated vCenter instance with a 4-node

vSphere cluster and already contains a number of encrypted VMs.

Which two steps must the administrator take to ensure the migration is a success? (Choose two.)

• Ensure that the source and destination vCenter instances share the same Key

  Management Server (KMS).

• Ensure that Encrypted vMotion is turned off for the VM.

• Ensure that the VM is encrypted attempting the migration before.

• Ensure that the source and destination vCenter Servers have a different Key

  Management Server (KMS).

An administrator is tasked with providing users access to objects within an existing VMware

vCenter instance. The vCenter inventory has a single data center with one management vSphere

cluster and five workload vSphere clusters.

The following requirements must be met for assigning the users access:

Users must only be able to view all of the inventory objects associated with the management vSphere cluster.

Users must be able to edit all of the inventory objects associated with the workload vSphere

clusters.

The administrator creates a custom role to provide the permissions needed to allow users to edit

inventory objects.

Which series of steps should the administrator complete to assign the custom role and provide the

required level of access to users?

• Apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object.

  Apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters and

  enable propagation.

• Apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object and

  enable propagation.

  Apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters and

  enable propagation.

• Apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object and

  enable propagation.

  Apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters and

  enable propagation.

• Apply Global permissions to assign the Read Only role to the root vCenter object and

  enable propagation.

  Apply vCenter permissions to assign the custom role to the workload vSphere clusters.

An administrator has a requirement to revert a running virtual machine to a previous snapshot after

a failed attempt to upgrade an application. When the administrator originally took the snapshot,

the following choices in the Take Snapshot dialog were made:

Snapshot the virtual machine’s memory = false

Quiesce guest file system = false

What will be the result of the administrator selecting the “Revert to Latest Snapshot” option to

return the virtual machine to a previous snapshot?

• The virtual machine will be restored to the parent snapshot in a powered on state.

• The virtual machine will be restored to the parent snapshot in a powered off state.

• The virtual machine will be restored to the child snapshot in a powered off state.

• The virtual machine will be restored to the child snapshot in a powered on state.

• vSphere Update Manager

• VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle

• vCenter Server Update Planner

• vSphere Lifecycle Manager

An administrator decides to restore VMware vCenter from a file-based backup following a failed

upgrade.

Which interface should the administrator use to complete the restore?

• Direct Console User Interface (DCUI)

• vCenter Management Interface (VAMI)

• vSphere Client

• vCenter GUI Installer

n administrator needs to provide encryption for workloads within an existing vSphere cluster.

The following requirements must be met:

• Encrypted vSphere vMotion

• Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Secure Boot

• Host Encryption

• VM Encryption

After a number of outages within a production VMware software-defined data center, an

administrator is tasked with identifying a solution to meet the following requirements:

Reduce the risk of outages by proactively identifying issues with the environment and resolving

them.

Reduce the complexity of uploading log bundles when raising support tickets.

Which solution should the administrator recommend to meet these requirements?

• VMware Aria Operations for Logs

• VMware Skyline Advisor Pro

• VMware Skyline Health

• VMware Aria Operations
