Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016 — Question 42

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same or similar answer choices. An answer choice may be correct for more than one question in the series. Each question is independent of the other questions in this series. Information and details provided in a question apply only to that question.
You have a Hyper-V host named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2016. Server1 has a virtual machine that uses a virtual hard disk (VHD) named disk1.vhdx.
You receive the following warning message from Event Viewer: "One or more virtual hard disks have a physical sector size that is smaller than the physical sector size of the storage on which the virtual hard disk file is located."
You need to resolve the problem that causes the warning message.
What should you run?

Answer options

• A. the Mount-VHD cmdlet
• B. the Diskpart command
• C. the Set-VHD cmdlet
• D. the Set-VM cmdlet
• E. the Set-VMHost cmdlet
• F. the Set-VMProcessor cmdlet
• G. the Install-WindowsFeature cmdlet
• H. the Optimize-VHD cmdlet

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct command is the Set-VHD cmdlet, which allows you to modify properties of a virtual hard disk, including aligning the sector sizes. The other options, such as Mount-VHD and Diskpart, do not address the sector size issue directly, while commands like Set-VM and Set-VMHost are related to virtual machine and host configurations, not VHD properties.
