  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.

• Question 168:

  -- Exhibit -

  

  --Exhibit -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.

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 169:
