VMware VCP5-DCV Online Questions & Answers

• Question 111:

  B. VMFS
  C. Virtual RDM
  D. NFS
  B. VMFS

• Question 112:

  An administrator has created a virtual machine that will be accessed from a public kiosk. Management has requested that the virtual machine be reset to a known state once a week or on demand if requested. Which method is the simplest way to meet this requirement?

  A. Configure the storage array to be vSphere aware and script routine array snapshot restores of the datastore.
  B. Implement a 3rd party imaging server and PXE boot the virtual machine off a static image.
  C. Set the VMDKs of the virtual machine to be Independent-Nonpersistent and schedule restarts of the virtual machine.
  D. Create Nonpersistent disks for the virtual machine and set the guest OS to reboot once a week.
  C. Set the VMDKs of the virtual machine to be Independent-Nonpersistent and schedule restarts of the virtual machine.

• Question 116:

  An administrator determines that when a host residing in a High Availability (HA) cluster fails, the virtual machines fail to restart on a remaining host, or will only restart after a long delay. Which two conditions would account for this behavior? (Choose two.)

  A. The virtual machines were not protected by vSphere HA at the time the failure occurred.
  B. Distributed Resource Scheduler was not enabled at the time the failure occurred.
  C. There is insufficient spare capacity on hosts with which the virtual machines are compatible.
  D. The virtual machines contain physical Raw Device Mappings.
  A. The virtual machines were not protected by vSphere HA at the time the failure occurred.
  C. There is insufficient spare capacity on hosts with which the virtual machines are compatible.

• Question 117:

  Which Web service is installed during the vCenter Server installation?

  A. Internet Information Service (IIS)
  B. WEBrick
  C. Tomcat Web server
  D. LiteSpeed Web server
  C. Tomcat Web server

• Question 118:

  An administrator has determined that storage performance to a group of virtual machines is reduced during peak activity. The virtual machines are located in a VMFS datastore called Production1 on an active-active storage array. The ESXi

  5.x

  host running the virtual machines is configured with an MRU multipathing policy.

  Which two actions can be taken to improve the storage performance of these virtual machines? (Choose two.)

  A. Add virtual storage, create a VMFS datastore called Production2 on the new storage, and then migrate some of the virtual machines from Production1 to Production2.
  B. Change the storage multipathing policy to Round Robin.
  C. Add physical storage, create a VMFS datastore called Production2 on the new storage, and then migrate some of the virtual machines from Production1 to Production2.
  D. Change the storage multipathing policy to Fixed with default settings.
  B. Change the storage multipathing policy to Round Robin.
  C. Add physical storage, create a VMFS datastore called Production2 on the new storage, and then migrate some of the virtual machines from Production1 to Production2.

  Explanation/Reference:

  Round Robin (VMware) The host uses an automatic path selection algorithm rotating through all available paths. This implements load balancing across all the available physical paths. Load balancing is the process of spreading server I/O requests across all available host paths. The goal is to optimize performance in terms of throughput (I/O per second, megabytes per second, or response times).

• Question 119:

  Which three modules are optional components that can be added from the vCenter Server installer? (Choose three.)

  A. VMware vCenter Syslog Collector
  B. VMware vCenter License Server
  C. VMware vSphere Authentication Proxy
  D. VMware vCenter Host Update Utility
  E. VMware vSphere Auto Deploy
  A. VMware vCenter Syslog Collector
  C. VMware vSphere Authentication Proxy
  E. VMware vSphere Auto Deploy
