NEW QUESTION 1
What are two reasons why a datastore in a Storage DRS cluster cannot enter maintenance mode? (Choose two.)

• A. Storage latency is too high to allow Storage DRS initiate Storage vMotion.
• B. Rules prevent Storage DRS from making migration recommendations.
• C. Storage DRS is disabled on the virtual disk.
• D. Storage DRS is configured for a VMFS3 datastore.

Answer: BC

Explanation: Problem
A datastore in a datastore cluster cannot either maintenance mode. The Entering Maintenance Mode status remains at 1%.
Cause
One or more disks on the datastore cannot be migrated with Storage vMotion. This condition can occur in the following instances.
Storage DRS is disabled on the disk
Storage DRS rules prevent Storage DRS from making migration recommendations for the disk.

NEW QUESTION 2

• D. Level 3

Answer: D

NEW QUESTION 3
A new virtual machine cannot reach its default gateway.
- The vSphere administrator checks that the virtual machine’s vmnic is connected to the correct portgroup, and that the portgroup is on the correct virtual switch
- This is the only virtual machine on this portgroup
- Other virtual machines that are on the host and connected to the same Distributed switch are running as normal
- The Distributed Switch has only one uplink Which could be the cause of this issue?

• A. Block All Ports has been selected on the Distributed Switch.
• B. The wrong VLAN ID has been added to the portgroup.
• C. The VLAN has not been configured in virtual machine hardware settings.
• D. The physical adapter is down.

Answer: B

Explanation: The default gateway is an entry point and an exit point in a virtual machine sub-net, VLAN, or network. In general, a gateway is a routing device that knows how to pass traffic between different subnets and
networks.
Layer 2 and layer 3 switches with VLAN configuration allow IP assignment to each VLAN that will be used as default gateway as for that particular VLAN. A router contains routes for other subnets. Therefore, the problem occurs when wrong VLAN ID is added to the portgroup.

NEW QUESTION 4
Group A has permission to download files in Content Library.
Group B does not have permission to download files in Content Library. If a user is a member of both groups, what will be the result?

• A. The user can access Content Library.
• B. The user cannot download file from Content Library.
• C. The user cannot access Content Library-
• D. The user can download file from Content Library.

Answer: B

Explanation: Permission inheritance (not in any order):* Permissions are additive if not in conflict so user gets permissions from both groups.* Permissions at lower level in hierarchy has precedence.* Permissions on user has precedence over Group* Deny permissions has precedence over Allow.

What is the VMware-recommended best practice for Fibre Channel zoning?

• A. single-initiator–single-target zoning
• B. single-initiator-zoning
• C. single-initiator–multiple-target zoning
• D. soft zoning

Answer: A

Explanation: With ESXi hosts, use a single-initiator zoning or a single-initiator-single-target zoning. The latter is a preferred zoning practice. Using the more restrictive zoning prevents problems and misconfigurations that can occur on the SAN.

Which iSCSI initiator type can be used with any network interface card?

• A. Software iSCSI initiator
• B. Software FCoE adapter
• C. Hardware Independent iSCSI initiator
• D. Hardware Dependent iSCSI initiator

Answer: A

Explanation: A software iSCSI adapter is a VMware code built into the VMkernel. It allows your host to connect to the
iSCSI storage device through standard network adapters. The software iSCSI adapter handles iSCSI processing while communicating with the network adapter. With the software iSCSI adapter, you can use iSCSI technology without purchasing specialized hardware.

• A. Virtual SAN traffic
• B. ESXi host Management traffic
• C. vSphere Replication traffic
• D. Software FCoE Adapter traffic

Answer: D

NEW QUESTION 18
A company has requested that a plan for Auto Deploy be built using VMware-recommended best practices for networking.
Which two considerations adhere to VMware-recommended networking best practices for Auto Deploy? (Choose two.)

• A. Using IPv4 as Auto Deploy will be able to boot hosts with a legacy BIOS.
• B. Using DHCP reservations for address allocations because providing fixed IP addresses through host customization is not supported.
• C. Using VLANs on the management network as it offers increased performance while hosts are booting.
• D. Using IPv6 as Auto Deploy will be able to boot hosts with a legacy BIOS and UEFI.
• E. Using DHCP reservations for address allocations because providing fixed IP addresses through host customization is not recommended.

Answer: AE

Explanation: PXE booting with legacy BIOS firmware is possible only over IPv4. PXE booting with UEFI firmware is possible with either IPv4 or IPv6.
Use DHCP reservations for address allocation. Fixed IP addresses are supported by the host customization mechanism, but providing input for each host is not recommended

ESXi 6.5 introduces VMFS6, which supports both 512e and 512n devices.
What three configurations are supported when using these devices? (Choose three.)

• A. Hosts with both 512e and 512n devices.
• B. Storage vMotion between both 512e and 512n devices.
• C. Datastore Extents spanned between both 512e and 512n devices.
