Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016 — Question 132

You have a Hyper-V host that runs Windows Server 2016.
You need to identify the amount of processor resources consumed by Hyper-V and virtual machines.
Which counter should you use from Performance Monitor?

Answer options

• A. \Hyper-V Hypervisor\Logical Processor
• B. \Hyper-V HypervisorRoot Virtual Processor(_Total)\% Guest Run Time
• C. \Hyper-V Hypervisor Virtual Processor(_Total)\% Hypervisor Run Time
• D. \Hyper-V Hypervisor Virtual Processor(_Total)\% Total Run Time

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the \Hyper-V Hypervisor\Logical Processor counter provides a comprehensive view of the processor resources used by Hyper-V and its VMs. The other options focus on specific aspects of resource usage, such as guest run time or hypervisor run time, but do not give a holistic view of all logical processors.
