VMware VMware Certifications VCP5-DCV Questions & Answers

• Question 411:

  An administrator is updating a program running on a virtual machine. The update file has been downloaded as an .iso file and placed on a shared NFS datastore. An attempt to mount the .iso file to the virtual machine fails, but subsequent testing shows that the .iso file can be mounted to a virtual machine running on another ESXi 5.x host.

  Which step can be taken to enable access to the .iso file for the affected virtual machine?

  A. Reboot all ESXi hosts in the cluster where the affected virtual machine is running.

  B. Refresh all datastores on the ESXi host running the affected VM.

  C. Rescan all datastores on the ESXi host running the affected VM.

  D. Unmount the volume from the ESXi host running the affected VM, and then add as a new datastore.

  Correct Answer: B

  The first step is to refresh all datastores on the ESXi host running the affected Virtual Machine. This way, the .iso file can be get access from the affected VM. Refreshing datastores, reinitiate the connections and make sure they are working fine.

• Question 412:

  Users are complaining that they cannot access their files on a file server virtual machine. The vSphere Client shows that a triggered alarm stating disk latency is beyond the default threshold for the datastore where the file server virtual machine is located. The path selection policy has been set by the ESXi host to Fixed with default path settings.

  Which two options could be used to increase performance of the file server virtual machine? (Choose two.)

  A. Use disk shares to increase the priority for the datastore housing the file server virtual machine.

  B. Use vMotion to relocate the VM to an ESXi host with lower HBA saturation.

  C. Change the path selection policy to Round Robin.

  D. Change the path selection policy to Most Recently Used (MRU).

  Correct Answer: BC

  To increase the performance of the file server virtual machine, you can use vMotion to relocate VM to an ESXi host with lower HBA saturation. You also need to change the path selection policy to round robin.

• Question 413:

  Click the Exhibit button.

  

  Users are having difficulty accessing a Web server since a new Web application was configured in a virtual machine running on sc-titanium03.vmeduc.com. The web server has been assigned 1 vCPU. The vSphere Client reports the error shown in the exhibit. DRS is set to fully automated mode, but the problem has not resolved.

  Which action can resolve the issue?

  A. Set a CPU reservation for the web server VM.

  B. Manually move the Virtual Machine using high priority vMotion.

  C. Configure the DRS Migration Threshold to Aggressive.

  D. Set CPU affinity for the virtual machine.

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 414:

  The RDP performance for a virtual machine on an ESXi 5.x host appears to be degraded. What are two possible causes of the problem? (Choose two.)

  A. The virtual machine has a high Ready value.

  B. The virtual machine's network adaptor is not configured to Connect at power on.

  C. The virtual machine's network adaptor is not configured as connected.

  D. The virtual machine is on a physical network that has become saturated.

  Correct Answer: AD

  The virtual had a high ready value and it is on a physical network that has become saturated. That's why the RDP performance becomes degraded.

• Question 415:

  Where are IP addresses for a vSphere Storage Appliance (VSA) cluster managed?

  A. On each VSA appliance using a web-based portal

  B. On the VSA Manger tab for the cluster hosting VSA

  C. On the VSA Manager appliance using a web-based portal

  D. On the vCenter server installed on a VSA host

  Correct Answer: B

  IP addresses can be found on the VSA manager tab for the cluster hosting vSphere storage appliance.

• Question 416:

  Recently, a storage interface card in an ESXi 5.x host has been experiencing inconsistent connectivity states.

  Which two methods can be used to quickly identify the issue and immediately notify an administrator so that the issue can be resolved? (Choose two.)

  A. Set up an alarm with the Lost Storage Path trigger to send an email for notification when the connection is lost.

  B. Set up an alarm with the Lost Storage Connectivity trigger to send an email for notification when the connection is lost.

  C. Set up an alarm with the Storage Redundancy Degraded trigger and configure an SNMP trap for notification when the connection is lost.

  D. Set up an alarm with the Lost Storage Connectivity trigger and configure an SNMP trap for notification when the connection is lost.

  Correct Answer: BD

• Question 417:

  The VMware vCenter Server Virtual Appliance (vCSA) offers many features of the Windows application version. Which of the following features is only available on the Windows application version of vCenter?

  A. Host Profiles

  B. Template and clone customization

  C. Active Directory authentication

  D. IPv6

  Correct Answer: D

  http://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere5/doc/vsp_vc50_u1a_rel_notes.html

  ?vCenter Server Virtual Appliance does not support IPv6 Although the vCenter Server Virtual Appliance Web console has an option to configure IPv6, vCenter Server Virtual Appliance does not support IPv6 configuration. Workaround: Do not set or change IPv6 configuration on the vCenter Server Virtual Appliance Web console.

• Question 418:

  An administrator is investigating a report of slow disk performance. Where is the most efficient place for the administrator to check?

  A. The performance tab of the vApp.

  B. The performance tab of the virtual machine.

  C. The performance tab of the vApp resource pool.

  D. The performance tab of the cluster.

  Correct Answer: B

• Question 419:

  An administrator is attempting to clone a running virtual machine, but receives an error that the virtual machine is using a device that prevents the operation. What two device types listed below could be causing this error? (Choose two.)

  A. An independent mode virtual disk

  B. A physical compatibility mode RDM

  C. An LSI logic SAS adapter

  D. A BusLogic Parallel adapter

  Correct Answer: AB

  Physical compatibility mode RDM and a independent mode virtual disk might be restricting the administrator to clone a running virtual machine.

• Question 420:

  When cloning a virtual machine to a template, what two attributes from the list below can be changed for the destination virtual disk? (Choose two.)

  A. Virtual disk format

  B. Number of network adaptors

  C. IP Address

  D. Location for virtual machine files

  Correct Answer: AD
