  A. Monitoring sensitivity was set to Low.
  B. Application Monitoring Only was selected.

• Question 362:

  An administrator receives a complaint that a virtual machine is performing poorly. The user attributes the issue to poor storage performance. If the storage array is the bottleneck, which two counters would be higher than normal? (Choose two.)

  A. Average ESXi VMKernel latency per command, in milliseconds
  B. Average ESXi highest latency, in milliseconds
  C. Average virtual machine operating system latency per command, in milliseconds
  D. Number of SCSI reservation conflicts per second
  B. Average ESXi highest latency, in milliseconds
  C. Average virtual machine operating system latency per command, in milliseconds

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  When the storage array is performing poorly or became a bottleneck, you will see the average ESXi highest latency in milliseconds. Moreover, the average virtual machine operation system latency per command will be high in milliseconds.

• Question 363:

  An administrator is informed that there will be a storage maintenance window and that failovers may occur.

  What is the expected length of time that a Windows 2008 virtual machine storage I/O will pause during a path failover?

  A. 0 to 30 seconds
  B. 90 to 120 seconds
  C. 60 to 90 seconds
  D. 30 to 60 seconds
  D. 30 to 60 seconds

• Question 364:

  An administrator needs to export system logs for an ESXi 5.5 host to determine the root cause for a host performance issue. This host supports manifest-driven exports of system logs. Which manifest is selected by default during the export system log wizard?

  A. Userworld
  B. Hostworld
  C. PerformanceSnapshot
  D. HungVM
  A. Userworld

• Question 365:

  A vSphere 5.x implementation contains two ESXi hosts, ESXi01and ESXi02. There is a virtual machine "VM21" connected to the Production port group on ESXi01.

  ESXi01 has the following switch configuration.

  vSwitch0, single uplink to 10.1.20.0/24 Production port group VMkernel port for vMotion VMKernel port for management

  vSwitch1, single uplink to 10.1.40.0/24 Engineering port group VMKernel port for NFS storage ESXi02 has the following switch configuration.

  vSwitch0, single uplink to 10.1.20.0/24 Engineering port group VMkernel port for vMotion VMKernel port for management

  vSwitch1, single uplink to 10.1.40.0/24 Production port group VMKernel port for NFS storage

  Which two statements are true about this configuration? (Choose two.)

  A. vMotion is not available between the two hosts
  B. If VM21 is migrated to ESXi02 it will not be available on the network
  C. The virtual machine can be vMotion migrated to the target host.
  D. Broadcasts from the Production port group will not reach the Engineering port group.
  B. If VM21 is migrated to ESXi02 it will not be available on the network
  D. Broadcasts from the Production port group will not reach the Engineering port group.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  If VM21 is migrated to ESXi 02, then according to the information provided, it will not be available on the network. Likewise, broadcasts from production port group will not reach engineering port group.

• Question 366:

  An administrator needs to use vSphere Update Manager for the initial deployment of VMware Tools on a group of newly created virtual machines. When the administrator scans the objects for compliance, a compliance state of Incompatible is

  returned.

  How should the administrator resolve the issue?

  A. Install VMware Tools manually on the new virtual machines.
  B. Ensure the latest version of VMware Tools has been downloaded to the Update Manager repository.
  C. Enable the Upgrade VMware Tools on Power Cycle option.
  D. Create a separate baseline object for each guest OS type .
  A. Install VMware Tools manually on the new virtual machines.

• Question 367:

  What are three true statements about quiescing virtual machine snapshots? (Choose three.)

  A. vSphere snapshot quiescing only occurs on Windows guest OSes.
  B. The quiescing operation is automatic with any snapshot.
  C. The quiescing operation varies by guest OS.
  D. Quiescing should occur before array-based snapshots to ensure consistency.
  E. VMware Tools is required for quiescing to be successful.
  C. The quiescing operation varies by guest OS.
  D. Quiescing should occur before array-based snapshots to ensure consistency.
  E. VMware Tools is required for quiescing to be successful.

• Question 368:

  An administrator is creating a new VMFS volume and needs to make it available to all hosts within a datacenter using the Web Client. What should the administrator scan for in order to meet this requirement?

  A. New Storage Devices and LUNs
  B. New Storage Devices and VMFS Volumes
  C. New VMFS Volumes and Datastores
  D. New VMFS Volumes and LUNs
  B. New Storage Devices and VMFS Volumes

• Question 369:

  A large aerospace company utilizes a mission critical application requiring a large database server with 16 vCPUs and 500GB of RAM. Because of the critical nature of the application, the company also wants to leverage Reliable Memory Technology.

  What is the minimum edition of vSphere that will support this scenario?

  A. vSphere Standard Edition
  B. vSphere with Operations Management Standard Edition
  C. vSphere Enterprise Edition
  D. vSphere with Operations Management Enterprise Edition
  C. vSphere Enterprise Edition

• Question 370:

  A database administrator has requested that a virtual disk attached to a virtual machine running an I/O intensive database application be fully provisioned. The virtual disk was initially thin provisioned. Which two methods would accomplish this task? (Choose two.)

  A. Use Storage vMotion and change the disk type to Flat.
  B. Use the Inflate option in the Datastore Properties.
  C. Use Storage vMotion and change the disk type to Thick Provisioned Lazy Zeroed.
  D. Use Storage vMotion and change the disk type to Thick Provisioned Eager Zeroed.
