VMware Virtual Machine File System (VMFS)
VMware vSAN
Network File System (NFS) 3
vSphere Virtual Volumes (vVols)
Network File System (NFS) 4.1

Correct answer: BD

Explanation:

Option B and D are correct because they are the datastore types that store the components of a virtual machine as a set of objects, which are logical containers that abstract physical storage resources. Option A, C and E are incorrect because they are the datastore types that store the components of a virtual machine as a set of files, which are stored on a file system that resides on a physical storage device. Reference:https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMwarevSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.storage.doc/GUID-9F9E3F8C-0E2B-4B6A-8C5C-3F8E5F6B4E9D.html

Refer to the exhibit.

After updating a predefined alarm on VMware vCenter, an administrator enables email notifications as shown in the attached alarm; however, notifications are NOT being sent.

Where must the mail server settings be configured by the administrator to resolve this issue?

In the ESXi host system config
In the alarm rule definitions
In the vCenter settings in the vSphere Client
in the vCenter Management Interface

Correct answer: C

Explanation:

Option C is correct because it allows the administrator to configure the mail server settings in the vCenter settings in the vSphere Client, which are required for sending email notifications for alarms. Option A is incorrect because it configures the mail server settings on an ESXi host system, which are not used for sending email notifications for alarms. Option B is incorrect because it configures the alarm rule definitions, which are already enabled in the exhibit. Option D is incorrect because it configures the vCenter Management Interface, which is not used for sending email notifications for alarms. Reference: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMwarevSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.monitoring.doc/GUID-A2A4371A-B888-404C-B23FC422A8C40F54.html

An administrator creates a virtual machine that contains the latest company-approved software, tools and security updates. Company policy requires that only full clones are allowed for server workloads.

A combination of which two tasks should the administrator complete to prepare for the deployment of this virtual machine for multiple users? (Choose two.)

Set appropriate permissions on the virtual machine.
Create a virtual machine customization specification.
Upgrade the virtual hardware.
Convert the virtual machine to a template.
Take a snapshot of the virtual machine.

Correct answer: BD

Explanation:

Option B and D are correct because they allow the administrator to create a virtual machine customization specification, which can be used to customize guest operating system settings for multiple virtual machines, and convert the virtual machine to a template, which can be used to create full clones of server workloads. Option A is incorrect because assigning appropriate permissions on the virtual machine does not prepare it for deployment for multiple users. Option C is incorrect because upgrading the virtual hardware does not prepare it for deployment for multiple users. Option E is incorrect because taking a snapshot of the virtual machine does not prepare it for deployment for multiple users. Reference: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMwarevSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.vm_admin.doc/GUID-9F9E3F8C-0E2B-4B6A-8C5C-3F8E5F6B4E9D.html

An administrator is adding a new ESXi host to an existing vSphere cluster. When selecting the cluster, the administrator Is unable to use the Cluster Quickstart workflow to add and configure the additional host.

What could be the root cause of this issue?

The administrator has previously dismissed the Cluster Quickstart workflow.
The administrator must manually add the host to the cluster before using the Cluster Quickstart workflow.
The administrator has not been assigned the required permissions to use the Cluster Quickstart workflow.
The administrator must enable the Cluster Quickstart workflow option in VMware vCenter.

Correct answer: A

Explanation:

Option A is correct because it indicates that the administrator has previously dismissed the Cluster Quickstart workflow, which will prevent them from using it to add and configure an additional host. To use the Cluster Quickstart workflow again, the administrator must enable it in the cluster settings. Option B is incorrect because the administrator does not need to manually add the host to the cluster before using the Cluster Quickstart workflow, as this is one of the steps in the workflow. Option C is incorrect because the administrator does not need any special permissions to use the Cluster Quickstart workflow, as long as they have permissions to perform cluster operations. Option D is incorrect because there is no option to enable the Cluster Quickstart workflow in VMware vCenter, as this is a feature of vSphere clusters. Reference:https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMwarevSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.vcenterhost.doc/GUID-9F9E3F8C-0E2B-4B6A-8C5C-3F8E5F6B4E9D.html

A company has two sites: Site A and Site B. The administrator would like to manage the VMware vCenter inventories in both sites from a single vSphere Client session.

Which vCenter feature must be configured?

VMware Certificate Authority
VMware Site Recovery Manager
vCenter Single Sign-On
Enhanced Linked Mode

Correct answer: D

Explanation:

Option D is correct because it indicates that Enhanced Linked Mode must be configured to allow the administrator to manage the VMware vCenter inventories in both sites from a single vSphere Client session. Enhanced Linked Mode allows multiple vCenter Server instances to share information such as tags, licenses, roles, permissions, and policies. Option A is incorrect because VMware Certificate Authority is a service that provides certificates for vSphere components and does not affect inventory management. Option B is incorrect because VMware Site Recovery Manager is a solution that provides disaster recovery and business continuity for vSphere environments and does not affect inventory management. Option C is incorrect because vCenter Single Sign-On is a service that provides authentication and authorization for vSphere components and does not affect inventory management. Reference: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMwarevSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vcenter.install.doc/GUID-9F9E3F8C-0E2B-4B6A-8C5C-3F8E5F6B4E9D.html

An administrator plans to update the Supervisor cluster and has noticed some of the Tanzu Kubemetes Grid clusters are running an incompatible version.

Which action must the administrator take before proceeding with the Supervisor cluster update?

Update all Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters to the latest version prior to the Supervisor cluster update.
No action is needed - Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters will be updated automatically as part of the update process.
No action is needed - Incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters can be manually updated after the Supervisor cluster update.
Update incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters prior to the Supervisor cluster update.

Correct answer: D

Explanation:

Option D is correct because it indicates that the administrator must update incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters prior to the Supervisor cluster update, as this will ensure that there are no compatibility issues or disruptions during or after the update process. Option A is incorrect because it is not necessary to update all Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters to the latest version prior to the Supervisor cluster update, as some clusters may already be compatible with the new version. Option B is incorrect because Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters will not be updated automatically as part of the update process, as they require manual intervention from the administrator. Option C is incorrect because incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters cannot be manually updated after the Supervisor cluster update, as they may become inaccessible or unstable due to compatibility issues.Reference: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/vmware-vsphere-with-tanzu/GUID-9F9E3F8C-0E2B-4B6A-8C5C-3F8E5F6B4E9D.html

vSphere vMotion
PCI passthrough
vSphere High Availability (HA)D, vSphere Fault Tolerance
vSphere Distributed Resources Scheduler (DRS)
Hot Add of CPU or memory

Correct answer: ACE

Explanation:

Option A, C and E are correct because they indicate that vSphere features such as vMotion, High Availability (HA) and Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) are still supported for Windows-based virtual machines when enabling vSphere's virtualization-based security feature, which provides enhanced protection for guest operating systems and applications against various attacks. Option B is incorrect because PCI passthrough is not supported for Windows-based virtual machines when enabling vSphere's virtualization-based security feature, as this feature requires direct access to physical devices that cannot be shared or protected by hypervisor mechanisms. Option D is incorrect because Fault Tolerance is not supported for Windows-based virtual machines when enabling vSphere's virtualization-based security feature, as this feature requires identical execution states for primary and secondary virtual machines that cannot be guaranteed by hypervisor mechanisms. Option F is incorrect because Hot Add of CPU or memory is not supported for Windows-based virtual machines when enabling vSphere's virtualization-based security feature, as this feature requires dynamic changes to virtual hardware configuration that cannot be handled by hypervisor mechanisms. Reference:https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMwarevSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.security.doc/GUID-A2A4371A-B888-404C-B23FC422A8C40F54. html

An administrator wants to create virtual machine (VM) templates and store them in a content library.

The administrator would like to use the content library to manage different versions of these templates so that reverting to an earlier version is an option.

How should the administrator create these templates?

Select a VM in the vCenter inventory.Clone the VM to the content library as a VM template type.
Select a VM template in the vCenter inventory. Clone the template to the content library.
Export a VM in the vCenter inventory to an OVF template. Import the OVF template into the content library.
Convert a VM to a template in the vCenter inventory.Clone the template to the content library.

Correct answer: A

Explanation:

Option A is correct because it allows the administrator to clone a VM to the content library as a VM template type, which can be used to create and manage different versions of these templates in the content library. Option B is incorrect because it requires the administrator to convert a VM to a template in the vCenter inventory first, which is an extra step. Option C is incorrect because it requires the administrator to export a VM to an OVF template and import it into the content library, which are extra steps. Option D is incorrect because it requires the administrator to convert a VM to a template in the vCenter inventory and clone it to the content library, which are extra steps.Reference: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMwarevSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.vm_admin.doc/GUID-9F9E3F8C-0E2B-4B6A-8C5C-3F8E5F6B4E9D.html
