VMware VCP5-DCV Online Questions & Answers

• Question 121:

  An administrator is attempting to use Update Manager to patch a cluster of ESXi 5.x hosts. The administrator needs to stage the patches for a scheduled update after hours. When verifying the hosts after the scheduled upgrade, the

  administrator determines that one of the hosts was not remediated and patches are not staged. The host is using PXE as its boot method.

  What condition would cause this behavior?

  A. The host was rebooted prior to the scheduled remediation.
  B. Remediating PXE-booted hosts using Update Manager is unsupported.
  C. The user account used does NOT have the Remediate Hosts privilege.
  D. The RAMdisk on the host has insufficient capacity.
  A. The host was rebooted prior to the scheduled remediation.

• Question 122:

  While performing a security check the vSphere administrator finds unassigned AD accounts with vSphere permissions. If the accounts are removed from Active Directory what will happen to any user logged into vCenter with those accounts?

  A. The vSphere client warns the user they will be logged out in 1 hour.
  B. The user can remain logged in indefinitely.
  C. The user is immediately disconnected from vCenter Server and cannot log back in.
  D. The user can remain logged into vCenter for up to 24 hours.
  D. The user can remain logged into vCenter for up to 24 hours.

• Question 123:

  A system administrator detects that a VDP Appliance that has been operational for 6 months has become inconsistent or unstable. Which action should the administrator take to recover the VDP appliance and what will be the impact on the vSphere environment?

  A. Perform a VDP rollback to the most recent validated checkpoint. All backup and configuration changes made after the checkpoint will be lost.
  B. Perform a VDP rollback to the most recent validated checkpoint. Configuration changes after the checkpoint will be lost, but backup data will remain intact.
  C. Restore a copy of the latest backup of the VDP appliance. All backup data and configuration changes after the backup was made will be lost.
  D. Restore a copy of the latest backup of the VDP appliance. All configuration changes after the backup was made will be lost, but backup data will remain intact.
  A. Perform a VDP rollback to the most recent validated checkpoint. All backup and configuration changes made after the checkpoint will be lost.

• Question 124:

  An administrator is using esxtop to troubleshoot a storage performance issue. Which parameter should the administrator check to monitor any storage-related vSphere overhead?

  A. DAVG
  B. KAVG
  C. GAVG
  D. CMDS
  B. KAVG

• Question 125:

  What is the purpose of configuring a VMkernel port for Fault Tolerance logging?

  A. The selected vmkernel port is used to send external inputs from a primary virtual machine to its secondary counterpart.
  B. The selected vmkernel port is able to log Fault Tolerance events to a syslog server.
  C. The selected vmkernel port is used to trigger a failover from the primary machine if a hardware crash occurs.
  D. The selected vmkernel port is able to maintain a log of changes to the secondary virtual machine.
  A. The selected vmkernel port is used to send external inputs from a primary virtual machine to its secondary counterpart.

• Question 126:

  What are two considerations when using resource pools in a vSphere cluster? (Choose two.)

  A. Default shares are equal for all sibling resource pools, regardless of virtual machines or child pools
  B. By default, Reservations can be exceeded
  C. vMotion must be setup prior to creating Resource Pools
  D. DRS rules cannot violate Resource Pool membership
  A. Default shares are equal for all sibling resource pools, regardless of virtual machines or child pools
  B. By default, Reservations can be exceeded

• Question 127:

  What are three methods of adding virtual machine networking to a vSphere Distributed Switch? (Choose three.)

  A. A portgroup can be created using the vSphere client and virtual machines can be added using their Properties tab.
  B. A portgroup can be created as part of the Migrate Virtual Machine Networking wizard before virtual machines are moved to the vDS.
  C. A portgroup can be cloned from a vSphere Standard Switch, inheriting the virtual machines that were attached to the cloned portgroup.
  D. A portgroup can be created using the vSphere client and virtual machines can be migrated using the Migrate Virtual Machine Networking wizard.
  E. A portgroup can be created during the creation of the vDS and virtual machines can be migrated using the Migrate Virtual Machine Networking wizard.
  A. A portgroup can be created using the vSphere client and virtual machines can be added using their Properties tab.
  D. A portgroup can be created using the vSphere client and virtual machines can be migrated using the Migrate Virtual Machine Networking wizard.
  E. A portgroup can be created during the creation of the vDS and virtual machines can be migrated using the Migrate Virtual Machine Networking wizard.

• Question 128:

  An administrator of a secure environment needs to add an iSCSI target to a new ESXi host using the vSphere client. The administrator has configured discovery and performed a rescan operation, but the iSCSI target does NOT appear.

  Which action should the administrator take for the target to appear in the vSphere client?

  A. Configure appropriate CHAP authentication settings
  B. Bind a VMkernel port to the iSCSI initiator
  C. Configure Jumbo Frames prior to adding iSCSI targets
  D. Enable iSCSI in a vSphere Distributed Switch configuration
  A. Configure appropriate CHAP authentication settings

• Question 129:

  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.
  A. The virtual machine has a high Ready value.
  D. The virtual machine is on a physical network that has become saturated.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  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 130:

  How is changed block tracking (CBT) used in a vSphere implementation?

  A. CBT is used by the VMkernel to reduce time needed for virtual machine copy operations.
  B. CBT is used by VMware Data Protection (VDP) to reduce time needed for backup jobs.
  C. CBT is used by vCenter Server to reduce the size of snapshots.
  D. CBT is used by vSphere Replication for synchronous replication operations.
  B. CBT is used by VMware Data Protection (VDP) to reduce time needed for backup jobs.
