VMware VCP6-DCV 2V0-621 Questions & Answers

• Question 241:

  An administrator tries to connect the vSphere 5.5 Client to an ESXi 6.x host.

  What will happen when this takes place?

  A. The operation will fail, since the vSphere Client is deprecated in vSphere 6.x.

  B. The operation will fail and the administrator will need to delete the client and install the 6.x version.

  C. The operation will prompt the administrator to run a script to upgrade the vSphere Client.

  D. The operation will update the vSphere Client silently in the background, then connect.

  Correct Answer: C

  Whenever a user tries to connect to a higher version of the ESXI host, the user will be prompted to upgrade to the higher version to escape the compatibility issues.

• Question 242:

  What will occur if the .nvram file is deleted from a powered off virtual machine?

  A. The .nvram file will get created the next time the virtual machine is powered on.

  B. Restoring the file from backup is needed to allow the virtual machine to power on.

  C. The virtual machine will fail to power on and enter an Orphaned state.

  D. The virtual machine will fail to power on and enter an Inaccessible state.

  Correct Answer: A

  The .nvram file. This small file contains the BIOS that is used when the VM boots. It is similar to a physical server that has a BIOS chip that lets you set hardware configuration options. A VM also has a virtual BIOS that is contained in the NVRAM file. The BIOS can be accessed when a VM first starts up by pressing the F2 key. Whatever changes are made to the hardware configuration of the VM are then saved in the NVRAM file. This file is in binary format and if deleted it will be automatically re-created when a VM is powered on.

• Question 243:

  An administrator wants to power on a virtual machine (VM) while connected to an ESXi host using SSH. The VM has the following Name and ID:

  1.

  VM Name = SQL001

  2.

  VMID = 12345

  Which command would successfully power on the virtual machine?

  A. vim-cmd vmsvc/power.on 12345

  B. vim-cmd vmsvc/power.on SQL001

  C. vmware-vim-cmd vmsvc/power.on 12345

  D. vmware-vim-cmd vmsvc/power.on SQL001

  Correct Answer: A

  ESXi 4.x, 5.x and 6.0

  To power on a virtual machine from the command line:

  1. List the inventory ID of the virtual machine with the command:

  vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms |grep

  Note: The first column of the output shows the vmid.

  2.

  Check the power state of the virtual machine with the command:

  3.

  Power-on the virtual machine with the command:

  vim-cmd vmsvc/power.getstate

  vim-cmd vmsvc/power.on

• Question 244:

  An administrator wants to clone a virtual machine using the vSphere Client. Which explains why the Clone option is missing?

  A. The vSphere Client is directly connected to the ESXi host.

  B. The virtual machine is configured with a thin-provisioned virtual disk.

  C. The virtual machine is configured with outdated Virtual Hardware.

  D. Cloning can only be performed with vRealize Orchestrator.

  Correct Answer: A

  Clone a Virtual Machine in the vSphere Client

  Cloning a virtual machine creates a duplicate of the virtual machine with the same configuration and installed software as the original. Optionally, you can customize the guest operating system of the clone to change the virtual machine name, network settings, and other properties. This prevents conflicts that can occur if a virtual machine and a clone with identical guest operating system settings are deployed simultaneously.

  Prerequisites

  You must be connected to vCenter Server in order to clone a virtual machine. You cannot clone virtual machines if you connect directly to an ESXi host.

• Question 245:

  An administrator needs two vCenter Servers to be visible within a single vSphere Web Client session.

  Which two vCenter Server and Platform Services Controller (PSC) configurations would accomplish this? (Choose two.)

  A. Install a single PSC with two vCenter Servers registered to it.

  B. Install two PSCs in the same Single Sign-On domain with one vCenter Server registered to each PSC.

  C. Install a single PSC with two vCenter Servers registered to it and configure Linked Mode.

  D. Install two PSCs in the same Single Sign-On domain with one vCenter Server registered to each PSC and configure Linked Mode.

  Correct Answer: BC

• Question 246:

  An administrator creates a custom ESXi firewall rule using an XML file, however the rules do not appear in the vSphere Web Client.

  Which action should the administrator take to correct the problem?

  A. Load the new rules using esxcli network firewall reload.

  B. Load the new rules using esxcli network firewall refresh.

  C. Verify the entries in the XML file and then reboot the ESXi host.

  D. Remove the ESXi host from the inventory and add it back.

  Correct Answer: B

  Revert the access permissions of the service.xml file to the read-only default by running the command:

  # chmod 444 /etc/vmware/firewall/service.xml Refresh the firewall rules for the changes to take effect by running the command: # esxcli network firewall refresh or # localcli network firewall refresh Reference: https://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?
