VMware Cloud Management and Automation Fundamentals — Question 10
Which vSphere feature provides continuous availability, allowing users to protect any virtual machine from a host failure with no loss of data or connectivity?
Answer options
- A. vSphere Fault Tolerance
- B. vSphere vMotion
- C. Enhanced vMotion Compatibility
- D. vSphere HA
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is A, vSphere Fault Tolerance, which allows for continuous availability by creating a live shadow instance of a virtual machine that can take over instantly in case of a host failure. The other options, while related to virtualization, do not provide the same level of continuous availability; vSphere vMotion and Enhanced vMotion Compatibility focus on migrating virtual machines, and vSphere HA deals with recovery after a failure rather than preventing it.
