VMware VMware Certified Professional VCP550PSE Questions & Answers

  • Question 181:

    A vSphere administrator needs to migrate a virtual machine to another datastore and host without

    disrupting virtual machine users.

    Which technique should the vSphere administrator use?

    A. Enhanced vMotion

    B. High Priority vMotion

    C. Low Priority vMotion

    D. Storage vMotion

  • Question 182:

    A vSphere administrator needs to temporarily disable DRS on a cluster containing a resource pool hierarchy.

    Which procedure should the administrator follow to preserve the resource pool hierarchy while DRS is disabled?

    A. Move the resource pool hierarchy out of the cluster prior to disabling DRS.

    B. Save the resource pool hierarchy to the administrator's local machine prior to disabling DRS.

    C. Backup the vCenter Server database and restore the database after re-enabling DRS.

    D. Create a new cluster and move the resource pool hierarchy to the new cluster prior to disabling DRS.

  • Question 183:

    A DRS cluster has been created with the following specifications:

    All mission critical virtual machines are in the root resource pool.

    All other virtual machines are placed into two child pools based on medium or low priority.

    The two child pools contain adequate resources needed by the medium and low priority virtual

    machines.

    The two child pools are reserving 35% of the total available resources of the cluster.

    What is the advantage of leaving the mission critical virtual machines in the root resource pool?

    A. The root resource pool has immediate access to new physical resources added to the cluster.

    B. Virtual machines placed in the root resource pool have a higher vMotion priority in DRS.

    C. Transparent Memory Page Sharing in the root resource pool has a higher weight than in child pools.

    D. Virtual machines placed in the root resource pool have higher default share values.

  • Question 184:

    A vSphere administrator needs to reconfigure the Distributed Power Management (DPM) threshold to be

    more aggressive.

    Where should the administrator edit the settings of DPM in the vSphere Web Client?

    A. DPM plug-in settings

    B. Cluster settings

    C. ESXi host power settings

    D. vCenter Service Status

  • Question 185:

    An administrator has created a Virtual Flash Read Cache and needs to add a total 2TB of capacity to the cache. The administrator has a total of six SSD disks to add, but is unable to add one of the disks. What is a likely cause of the problem?

    A. The SSD device size is less than 256GB.

    B. The SSD device size is greater than 4TB.

    C. The SSD device is a local disk.

    D. The SSD device contains existing data.

  • Question 186:

    An organization's wants to ensure that if a host in a High Availability (HA) cluster fails, critical virtual

    machines resume operation even if there are insufficient resources to continue to run all virtual machines

    in the cluster.

    Which HA setting should be configured to ensure the cluster operates as expected?

    A. VM restart priority

    B. Admission Control policy

    C. VM monitoring sensitivity

    D. das.checkVmStateDelay

  • Question 187:

    An administrator needs to prevent two virtual machines from running on the same host at any time. Which DRS rule should the administrator apply?

    A. vm-to-vm affinity

    B. vm-to-host affinity

    C. vm-to-vm anti-affinity

    D. vm-to-host anti-affinity

  • Question 188:

    A vSphere administrator needs to enable Distributed Resource Scheduling (DRS) in an existing vSphere environment:

    The environment contains a High Availability (HA) cluster with eight ESXi hosts.

    Six ESXi hosts are not in a cluster.

    DRS should be used on as many hosts as possible.

    Initial placement of virtual machines should be automatically performed.

    Migration recommendations should be provided, but not performed without approval.

    Which procedure should the administrator perform to accomplish this task?

    A. Select the datacenter and create a DRS cluster. Add the six remaining hosts to this cluster, then enable DRS. Edit the DRS settings and change the automation level to Partial.

    B. Select the existing HA cluster. Add the six remaining hosts to the cluster. Enable DRS, then edit the settings and change the automation level to Manual.

    C. Select the datacenter and create a DRS cluster. Add the six remaining hosts to this cluster, then enable DRS. Edit the DRS settings and change the automation level to Manual.

    D. Select the existing HA cluster. Add the six remaining hosts to the cluster. Enable DRS, then edit the settings and change the automation level to Partial.

  • Question 189:

    A system administrator has an application installed on a physical machine that is licensed to the MAC address of the physical NIC. This system needs to be virtualized.

    What two methods could an administrator use to ensure the license will function in the virtual machine? (Choose two.)

    A. Manually set the MAC address for the vNIC in the guest OS

    B. Install the NIC from the physical server into the ESXi host

    C. Manually set the MAC address for the vNIC using the Web Client

    D. Configure the physical server's MAC address in the virtual switch

  • Question 190:

    A vSphere administrator needs the ability to adjust the amount of guaranteed physical CPU and Memory

    resources to a virtual machine without incurring application downtime.

    Which actions must the administrator perform?

    A. Enable CPU hotplug and Memory hotplug on the virtual machine.

    B. Adjust the number of CPUs and the Memory Configuration for the virtual machine.

    C. Adjust the CPU reservation slider and click the Reserve all Guest Memory checkbox.

    D. Adjust the CPU and Memory reservation sliders on the virtual machine.
