VMware VCP5-DCV Online Questions & Answers

• Question 51:

  A vSphere Standard Switch is configured with two uplinks. When adjusting the failover order of the uplinks, what are two valid states in which an administrator can place the uplinks? (Choose two.)

  A. Active
  B. Unused
  C. Passive
  D. Disabled
  A. Active
  B. Unused

• Question 52:

  The load is high on a HA/DRS cluster. DPM is enabled. A vSphere administrator determines that hosts are NOT powering on automatically to support the load. Which configuration would result in this condition?

  A. VM-to-VM or VM-to-Host DRS rules have been configured that restrict where some VMs can be moved.
  B. DPM has been set to the most Conservative threshold.
  C. Some of the virtual machines have been removed from HA consideration by the vSphere administrator.
  D. DRS is set to Manual Automation.
  D. DRS is set to Manual Automation.

• Question 53:

  Which three requirements must be met in order to use Storage I/O Control? (Choose three.)

  A. The datastore must contain multiple VMFS extents.
  B. The datastore must contain a single NFS volume.
  C. The datastore must not include virtual machines with snapshots.
  D. The datastore must be managed by a single vCenter Server.
  E. Array-based automated storage tiering must be explicitly certified.
  B. The datastore must contain a single NFS volume.
  D. The datastore must be managed by a single vCenter Server.
  E. Array-based automated storage tiering must be explicitly certified.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  Extents are only a single extent not multiples. Also, because NFS is not VMFS it does not use extents. You grow the NFS from the actual NAS appliance itself with extents.

  

• Question 54:

  An administrator is planning a new vSphere deployment using shared storage. The solution must support: vMotion Storage vMotion Fault Tolerant virtual machines VAAI primitives RDM disks

  Which storage type will meet these requirements?

  A. CIFS
  B. iSCSI
  C. NFS
  D. vSAN
  B. iSCSI

• Question 55:

  An existing vSphere 4 environment will be upgraded to vSphere 5.x. The current implementation utilizes ESXi 4.1 and the new implementation will use ESXi 5.x. In which two ways will the new ESXi 5.x implementation differ from the ESXi 4.1 implementation? (Choose two.)

  A. VMware ESXi 5.x provides a host-based firewall.
  B. VMware ESXi 5.x can boot from additional local sources such as a USB drive.
  C. VMware ESXi 5.x can be managed from a web browser.
  D. VMware ESXi 5.x can support virtual machines with larger hard drive configurations.
  B. VMware ESXi 5.x can boot from additional local sources such as a USB drive.
  D. VMware ESXi 5.x can support virtual machines with larger hard drive configurations.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  Of many features, ESXi5.x can boot from various local sources like a USB drive and it can support virtual machines with large hard drive configurations.

• Question 56:

  Which two conditions prevent the application of a host profile to an ESXi 5.x host? (Choose two.)

  A. The host has multiple profiles attached.
  B. The host has not been placed into maintenance mode.
  C. The host is running virtual machines.
  D. The host is an ESXi host.
  B. The host has not been placed into maintenance mode.
  C. The host is running virtual machines.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  When the host is not placed in maintenance mode and when the host is running virtual machines, you cannot apply host profile to an ESXi host.

• Question 57:

  Which three configuration settings will be migrated when upgrading a host from ESX 4.x Classic to ESXi 5.x? (Choose three.)

  A. The SSH configuration in /etc/ssh
  B. The host configuration in /etc/vmware/esx.conf
  C. The NFS configuration in /etc/fstab
  D. The services information in /etc/services
  E. The licensing information in /etc/licenses/license.conf
  A. The SSH configuration in /etc/ssh
  B. The host configuration in /etc/vmware/esx.conf
  C. The NFS configuration in /etc/fstab

  Files Migrated During Migration or Upgrade from ESX/ESXi 4.x to ESXi 5.0

  This table provides the list of files migrated during upgrade from ESX/ESXi 4.x to ESXi 5.0:

  File Notes

  /etc/sfcb/sfcb.cfg

  CIM "indication"conf files

  /etc/ntp.conf

  /etc/ntp.drift

  /etc/ntp.keys

  /etc/syslog.conf Migrated for ESXi, not migrated for ESX. /etc/security/access.conf Needed for PAM configurations.

  /etc/security/login.map No comment.

  /etc/sysconfig/network Service Console NICs areconverted to VMkernel NICs. /etc/sysconfig/keyboard Any entries not supported will default to English.

  ***/etc/ssh OpenSSH is now included in ESXi 5.0.

  /etc/nsswitch.conf Used generically for various configurations, most helpful for Active Directory authentication.

  /etc/krb.conf Needed for Likewise to have Active Directory support. /etc/krb.realmsNeeded for Likewise to have Active Directory support. /etc/krb5.conf Needed for Likewise to have Active Directory support. /etc/ krb5.acl Needed for Likewise

  to have Active Directory support. /etc/krb5.keytab Needed for Likewise to have Active Directory support. /etc/krb5.log Needed for Likewise to have Active Directory support. /etc/ krb5.mkey Needed for Likewise to have Active Directory

  support.

  /etc/pam.d/* (Partial)

  Needed for authentication and authorization.

  Note: Custom edits made to settings in /etc/pam.d/system-auth in ESX 4.x are reset to the default values by the upgrade to ESXi 5.0. To maintain the custom values, reset them manually after the upgrade. /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf Migrated to /

  etc/vmware/snmp.xml. etc/motd A note is appended saying the system was upgraded to ESX 5.x.
