CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 163

A technician needs to increase the available RAM on a virtual workstation. Which of the following should the technician do?

Answer options

• A. Increase the ECC memory timings in the BIOS.
• B. Upgrade to the latest DDR5 modules.
• C. Clear the temporary files on the workstation's boot drive.
• D. Use a hypervisor to adjust the resource allocation.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because using a hypervisor allows for dynamic adjustment of resource allocation, including RAM, for virtual machines. Options A and B involve hardware changes that do not apply to a virtual workstation's RAM. Option C, while it may free up some drive space, does not increase RAM availability.
