• Question 284:

  A database administrator has requested a disk for a virtual machine that will run an I/O intensive database application on an ESXi 5.x host. Which two disk types will best fit the needs of the application? (Choose two.)

  A. Raw Device Mapped Disk
  B. Thin Provisioned Disk
  C. Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed Disk
  D. Thick Provision Eager Zeroed Disk
  A. Raw Device Mapped Disk
  D. Thick Provision Eager Zeroed Disk

  Explanation/Reference:

  page 31, clearly states that best http://www.vmware.com/pdf/Perf_Best_Practices_vSphere5.0.pdf performance is achieved using eager zeroed provisioned disks, even when VAAI is available

• Question 285:

  A vSphere administrator is attempting to upgrade an ESXi host using vSphere Update Manager. The administrator has attached the baseline and remediated the host. Update Manager reports the remediation process has completed

  successfully. However, upon inspection the host is not upgraded.

  What is the most likely reason for this issue?

  A. The ESXi host has less than 10MB free in its /tmp directory.
  B. The user performing the upgrade has insufficient privileges.
  C. The Update Manager service has not been configured with root level access to the host.
  D. The baseline has been configured using an invalid ISO image.
  A. The ESXi host has less than 10MB free in its /tmp directory.

• Question 286:

  An organization's datastores are configured in a fully automated Storage Distributed Resource Scheduler (SDRS) cluster. The vSphere administrator determines that virtual machines are being migrated between datastores even though the datastores look evenly balanced. On further investigation, the administrator determines that the datastore's utilization percentages differ by 2%.

  Which Storage DRS setting should the administrator change to prevent the virtual machines from migrating prematurely?

  A. Edit the Storage DRS cluster settings to increase the percentage of the Space Utilization Difference threshold
  B. Edit the Storage DRS cluster settings to increase the percentage of the I/O imbalance threshold
  C. Edit the Storage DRS cluster settings to increase the size of the Space Utilization Difference threshold
  D. Edit the Storage DRS cluster settings to increase the size of the I/O imbalance threshold
  A. Edit the Storage DRS cluster settings to increase the percentage of the Space Utilization Difference threshold

• Question 287:

  An administrator has created a Virtual SAN Cluster using Automatic Mode Disk Groups. There is very little storage space left in the cluster. The administrator has access to an iSCSI storage array.

  Which approach should the administrator take to expand the Virtual SAN Cluster?

  A. Add new hosts to the cluster with available local disks then click the Claim Disks icon in the Disk Management section under the Virtual SAN tab.
  B. Add new disks to the hosts in the cluster then click the Claim Disks icon in the Disk Management section under the Virtual SAN tab.
  C. Add new hosts to the cluster with available local disk. No further action is required to claim the added storage.
  D. Provision new LUNs on the iSCSI storage and present one LUN to each host in the cluster. No further action is required to claim the added storage.
  C. Add new hosts to the cluster with available local disk. No further action is required to claim the added storage.

• Question 288:

  What are three true statements about an integrity check in vCenter Data Recovery? (Choose three.)

  A. The operation is prevented from overlaping with the backup operations.
  B. The operation is scheduled separately from the backup schedule.
  C. An incremental operation can be manually started.
  D. The operation automatically pauses when the end of the maintenance widow is reached
  E. By default the operation does not run during normal business hours.
  B. The operation is scheduled separately from the backup schedule.
  D. The operation automatically pauses when the end of the maintenance widow is reached
  E. By default the operation does not run during normal business hours.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  When you do integrity check in vcenter data recovery, you can schedule the operation separately from the backup schedule. When the end of the maintenance window is reached operation is paused automatically. Along with this, the operation does not run during normal business hours by default.

• Question 289:

  Which two features secure the VMkernel? (Choose two.)

  A. Memory Encryption
  B. Hardware assist virtualization
  C. Kernel module integrity
  D. Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
  C. Kernel module integrity
  D. Trusted Platform Module (TPM)

• Question 290:

  Which two statements are true regarding vSphere standard switches? (Choose two.)

  A. Beaconing requires at least three uplinks to be considered useful.
  B. Virtual machines on different vSwitches require the vSwitches to share an uplink to communicate.
  C. vSphere virtual switches require at least one uplink adapter.
  D. Setting the number of ports to the maximum on a vSwitch will exhaust the total ports on a host.
  A. Beaconing requires at least three uplinks to be considered useful.
  D. Setting the number of ports to the maximum on a vSwitch will exhaust the total ports on a host.
