VMware VCP550 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 191:

  Immediately after installing ESXi, an administrator observes that the Configure Lockdown Mode option is grayed out in the Direct Console User Interface (DCUI). What is the most likely explanation?

  A. The host has not yet been added to a vCenter Server.
  B. The BIOS on the host does not have NX/XD enabled.
  C. The ESXi host is running in evaluation mode.
  D. The host requires a reboot before this feature is available.
  A. The host has not yet been added to a vCenter Server.

• Question 192:

  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 193:

  A vSphere administrator deleted a vApp from disk. A second administrator needs the virtual machines that were contained in the vApp. What should the first administrator do to make the virtual machines available?

  A. Recover the virtual machines from backup
  B. Add the virtual machines back into inventory
  C. Undelete the vApp
  D. Recover the virtual machines from Stranded Items
  A. Recover the virtual machines from backup

• Question 194:

  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 195:

  -- Exhibit -

  

  -- Exhibit -An administrator is unable to configure Receive Side Scaling on the vmnic driver in a Windows 2008 R2 guest.

  Based on the exhibit, what would need to be modified to enable this option?

  A. Manually configure a static MAC address
  B. Enable DirectPath I/O
  C. Ensure the vmnic is attached to the correct network
  D. Change the adapter type to VMXNET3
  D. Change the adapter type to VMXNET3

• Question 196:

  What will cause the validation of a vMotion migration to fail?

  A. A virtual machine configured for CPU affinity
  B. A virtual machine configured with a local .vswp file
  C. A virtual machine configured to use NUMA
  D. A virtual machine configured with a shared Raw-Device Mapped disk
  A. A virtual machine configured for CPU affinity

• Question 197:

  An administrator needs to configure an alarm that notifies administrators if an application is impacted by overcommitment of memory resources. The environment consists of 100 virtual machines running on 5 ESXi hosts that are configured in a fully automated HA/DRS cluster. The cluster is configured with a parent resource pool and Production and Development child pools.

  Where should the administrator set the alarm to meet the requirement?

  A. On each virtual machine
  B. On each host
  C. On the Production resource pool
  D. On the cluster
  D. On the cluster

• Question 198:

  An administrator needs to create an IP allocation policy for a multi-tiered application running in a vApp.

  The IP addresses should be allocated automatically by vCenter Server, but should not be released even if a virtual machine is powered off.

  Which IP allocation model should the administrator use for the vApp?

  A. Static - Manual
  B. Transient - IP Pool
  C. DHCP
  D. Static - IP Pool
  D. Static - IP Pool

• Question 199:

  An administrator removes a virtual machine from a resource pool and places it in the DRS root resource pool. Users report the performance of the application running on the virtual machine has improved. The virtual machine relocation was the only change that occurred.

  What explains the change in application performance?

  A. The memory, storage, and/or CPU settings of the original resource pool restricted access to resources for the virtual machine.
  B. The configured memory, storage and/or CPU shares on the root resource pool are higher than the original resource pool.
  C. The memory, storage and/or CPU settings on the root resource pool restricted access to resources for the virtual machine
  D. The configured memory storage and/or CPU reservations on the root resource pool are higher than the original resource pool.
  A. The memory, storage, and/or CPU settings of the original resource pool restricted access to resources for the virtual machine.

• Question 200:

  A vSphere administrator receives a request to capture the state of a virtual machine six times a day. Which procedure will satisfy the requirement with the least amount of administrator intervention?

  A. Use the vSphere web client to configure a scheduled task to take a snapshot every four hours.
  B. Use the vSphere web client to configure a scheduled workflow to take a snapshot every four hours.
  C. Use the vSphere web client to manually initiate a snapshot of the virtual machine every four hours.
  D. Use the vSphere web client to schedule an automated snapshot every four hours using Snapshot Manager.
  A. Use the vSphere web client to configure a scheduled task to take a snapshot every four hours.
