VMware VMware Certifications VCP5-DCV Questions & Answers

• Question 341:

  Which option could be used for vSphere HA heartbeats?

  A. An iSCSI LUN used for booting the master ESXi host.

  B. An iSCSI LUN backing an RDM connected over 10GB Ethernet

  C. An NFS datastore shared with the all hosts, sync, no_root_squash and read only options

  D. A Fibre Channel LUN on an 8GB active/active array backing a VMFS5 datastore

  Correct Answer: D

  Fibre Channel LUN on an 8GB active/active array backing up a VMFS5 datastore will work with vSphere HA heartbeats.

• Question 342:

  Which two components can be installed in monitored virtual machines to trigger vSphere HA Application Monitoring? (Choose two.)

  A. A custom script utilizing the appmonitor executable

  B. The vSphere Fault Tolerant agent

  C. Third-party utilities such as Neverfail or ApplicationHA

  D. The vSphere HA application agent

  Correct Answer: AC

  Custom script using appmonitor executable can be installed in monitored VMs that will help triggering vSphere HA Application monitoring. You can also install third-party utilities like Neverfail or ApplicationHA to trigger vSphere HA Application monitoring.

• Question 343:

  A vSphere environment is created with two virtual machines, VM23 and VM43. Each virtual machine has an instance of the front-end web application for the company's manufacturing management database. A physical load-balancer is configured for the application.

  Which type of DRS rule should be implemented for VM23 and VM43?

  A. Separate Virtual Machines

  B. Virtual Machines to Hosts

  C. Host DRS Groups

  D. Keep Virtual Machines Together

  Correct Answer: A

  Separate virtual machines can be implemented for VM 23 and VM43.

• Question 344:

  A. Cold migration

  B. Storage vMotion

  C. vMotion

  D. vSphere Clone

  Correct Answer: BC

  A. There is not enough free memory to meet the guests memory reservation.

  B. The virtual machine has been assigned a required affinity rule.

  C. Strict admission control is disabled for the HA cluster.

  D. The vCenter is hosted on the ESXi host that failed.

  Correct Answer: AB

• Question 347:

  Which conditions are true regarding an ESXi 5.x host placed into maintenance mode while a member of a DRS cluster? (Choose two.)

  A. If the DRS cluster is in partially automated mode and vMotion is configured, its virtual machines will be moved automatically to other hosts in the cluster.

  B. If the DRS cluster is in fully automated mode and vMotion is configured, its virtual machines will be moved automatically to other hosts in the cluster.

  C. If the DRS cluster is in partially automated mode and vMotion is configured, its virtual machines that have a high restart priority will be migrated to other hosts in the cluster.

  D. All the virtual machines on the host must be migrated or powered off before the ESXi host will complete entering maintenance mode.

  Correct Answer: BD
