VMware Data Center Virtualization Fundamentals — Question 16

What does Storage DRS do to determine if a particular disk device is overburdened?

Answer options

• A. Powers down the storage device.
• B. Monitors disk I/O latency on the shared storage devices.
• C. Takes a count of virtual machines on the storage device.
• D. Reads the data on the storage devices.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because Storage DRS evaluates the performance of storage devices by monitoring disk I/O latency, which indicates if a device is overburdened. Options A, C, and D do not directly assess the load on the disk device and therefore do not contribute to determining its performance status.
