Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016 — Question 43

You have two Hyper-V hosts named Server1 and Server2 that run Windows Server 2016. The hosts are nodes in failover cluster.
You have a virtual machine named VM1. VM1 connects to a virtual switch named vSwitch1.
You discover that VM1 automatically live migrates when vSwitch temporarily disconnects.
You need to prevent VM1 from being live migrated when vSwitch1 temporarily disconnects.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Run the Set-VMNetworkAdapter cmdlet and set StormLimit to 0.
• B. From the network adapter setting of VM1, disable the Heartbeat integration service.
• C. Run the Set-VMNetworkAdapter cmdlet and set IsManagementOS to False.
• D. From the network adapter setting of VM1, disable the Protected network setting.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because disabling the Protected network setting prevents the virtual machine from automatically migrating during network issues. Options A, B, and C would not effectively stop the live migration during a temporary disconnection of the virtual switch.
