CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 235

A cloud administrator notices VMs on a particular host are having performance issues. The administrator also determines this host has more VMs than the others in the cluster. Which of the following is the primary cause of the performance issues?

Answer options

• A. Oversubscription
• B. License issues
• C. Storage latency
• D. Network outage

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The primary cause of the performance issues is oversubscription, as having more VMs than the host can effectively support can lead to resource contention. The other options, such as license issues, storage latency, and network outages, may contribute to performance problems but are not directly related to the number of VMs hosted.
