Upgrading Your Skills to MCSA: Windows Server 2016 — Question 95

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. From the network adapter setting of VM1, disable the Protected network setting.
• 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. Run the Set-VMNetworkAdapter cmdlet and set StormLimit to 0.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because disabling the Protected network setting prevents VM1 from automatically live migrating when there are issues with the virtual switch. The other options do not address the specific behavior of automatic migration during network disconnections; for instance, disabling the Heartbeat integration service (B) would not impact migration, while adjusting IsmanagementOS (C) and StormLimit (D) does not pertain directly to the migration behavior triggered by network issues.
