VMware VCP5-DCV Online Questions & Answers

• Question 31:

  An administrator has been tasked with upgrading an existing host from ESX 4.1 to ESXi 5.x. The existing host has only vSwitch0 with all the default settings.

  The upgraded host will have the following new requirements:

  1.

  116 virtual machines will be connected.

  2.

  Four uplinks configured for port-based load balancing.

  3.

  The switch will include a secondary heartbeat network for HA.

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

  A. The Service Console Port will be removed during the upgrade
  B. The configuration requires only one VMkernel Port
  C. The default vSwitch0 is sufficient for this configuration
  D. A change to vSwitch0 Properties is required
  A. The Service Console Port will be removed during the upgrade
  D. A change to vSwitch0 Properties is required

  Explanation/Reference:

  VMware has removed the service console port group with the release of vSphere 5. You can execute the same command, which you used to do on vSphere 4 service console using vMA, CLI and PowerCLI.

• Question 32:

  A database administrator has reported periodic poor performance on a particular virtual machine. The virtual machine administrator has noticed a significant drop in performance when utilized memory exceeds 1GB. What does this indicate and what could be checked next?

  A. The application problems are definitely due to a non-memory-related problem. CPU affinity settings should be checked for this virtual machine.
  B. The application problems are definitely due to a non-memory-related problem. CPU utilization should be checked next, using Windows Task Manager.
  C. The virtual machine might not have physical memory available. Compression and swap activity on the ESXi host should be checked next.
  D. The virtual machine might not have physical memory available. Ensure the memory limit on the VM is set to 0 MB.
  C. The virtual machine might not have physical memory available. Compression and swap activity on the ESXi host should be checked next.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  If the performance degrades when the memory exceeds the allocated value, the virtual machine might not have physical memory available. Check compression and swap activity on ESXi host to see where the additional memory is going.

• Question 33:

  How can you verify that vStorage APIs for Array Integration (VAAI) functionality is enabled for a storage array in a vSphere 5.x implementation?

  A. VAAI will be reported on the Hard Disk properties page for any VMDK stored on a compliant array
  B. Hardware Acceleration will be reported on the Hard Disk properties page for any VMDK stored on a compliant array
  C. Supported will be listed in the VAAI column for any datastore created on a compliant array
  D. Supported will be listed in the Hardware Acceleration column for any datastore created on a compliant array
  D. Supported will be listed in the Hardware Acceleration column for any datastore created on a compliant array

• Question 35:

  A vSphere administrator is performing maintenance on a group of ESXi 5.5 hosts when an error message displays indicating that the ramdisk is full. The two hosts reporting the problem were deployed with Auto Deploy. What should the administrator do to resolve this issue?

  A. Redirect host logs to an NFS store
  B. Disable the System Logs through the host DCUI
  C. Decrease the maximum host log file size to 10240KB
  D. Move the ramdisk to an SSD drive
  A. Redirect host logs to an NFS store

• Question 36:

  A. The database was configured to use Windows authentication.
  B. The DSN was configured using a 32-bit ODBC connection.
  C. Update Manager does not support the use of a remote database.
  D. Port 9087 is being blocked by Windows Firewall on the Update Manager server.
  A. The database was configured to use Windows authentication.

• Question 37:

  Which are three of the steps recalled patches automatically go through in vSphere Update Manager? (Choose three.)

  A. Delete recalled patch binary from repository
  B. Remediate any host with recalled patches
  C. Generate a notification in the notification tab
  D. Place hosts with recalled patches in maintenance mode
  E. Flag recalled patch in database
