  B. The selected datastore is formatted with a 1 MB block size.
  C. The selected datastore is an NFS datastore.
  D. The selected datastore is not accessible to all of the hosts.
  D. The selected datastore is not accessible to all of the hosts.

• Question 62:

  A vSphere administrator finds a HA/DRS cluster status has turned RED indicating a degraded state. What is the likely reason for the indication?

  B. The cluster does not have enough resources to satisfy the reservations of all resource pools and virtual machines.
  C. Incompatible CPU generations between hosts are preventing DRS migrations.
  D. The cluster is currently electing a Master host and is unavailable to perform HA functions.

• Question 63:

  An administrator needs to know the estimated time remaining on a virtual machine that is hosting a critical accounting application given current assigned resources such as memory, CPU, and disk.

  A. The vSwitch1 virtual switch does not have an attached vmnic adapter.
  B. The Fileserver01 virtual machine is not running.
  C. vSwitch0 is configured to reject MAC address spoofing.
  D. vmk0 is using a non-routable IP address.
  B. The Fileserver01 virtual machine is not running.

• Question 65:

  A. vSphere Data Protection
  B. vSphere Replication
  C. vSphere Snapshots
  D. vSphere Heartbeat

• Question 67:

  An organization has a cluster of 6 ESXi hosts. Security policy requires that all administrative activity occurs through vCenter Server and not directly on the hosts. Which action should a system administrator take to enforce this policy?

  A. Use the vSphere client to right-click on the cluster and select Enable lockdown mode on the ESXi hosts in the cluster.
  B. Use the vSphere client to navigate to the Security Profile of each ESXi host and enable lockdown mode.
  C. Connect to the DCUI of each ESXi host and navigate the menus to the Troubleshooting Options and enable lockdown mode.
  D. Connect to the ESXi shell on each host and type the command service lockdown start.
  B. Use the vSphere client to navigate to the Security Profile of each ESXi host and enable lockdown mode.

• Question 68:

  A vSphere administrator needs to add redundancy to an ESXi 5.x management network on a vSphere Standard Switch. Which method should the administrator use to create redundant management networks?

  A. Configure the management network vSwitch with two active uplinks
  B. Configure an additional management portgroup on the same vSwitch
  C. Create a second management network on a second vSwitch in the same subnet
  D. Create a second management network on the same vSwitch in the same subnet
  A. Configure the management network vSwitch with two active uplinks

• Question 69:

  An organization has a HA/DRS cluster containing a mixture of ESXi 4.1 and 5.5 hosts in the cluster. An ESXi 5.5 host has failed and HA attempted but failed to restart the virtual machines on another host. HA admission control is disabled. What condition could result in this behavior?

  B. Insufficient resources exist on the remaining ESXi hosts
  C. vMotion migration is not supported between ESXi 5.5 and 4.1 hosts
  D. HA failover is not supported between ESXi 5.5 and 4.1 hosts
  A. A virtual machine has an incompatible hardware version
