VMware Data Center Virtualization Fundamentals — Question 42

Which statement best defines the virtual machine hot-add feature?-

Answer options

• A. Administrators can transfer the virtual machines from one physical server to another while the virtual machine is running
• B. Administrators can copy-and-paste virtual machines instead of creating them from scratch.
• C. Administrators can add and install applications without restarting it.
• D. Administrators can increase the capabilities of a virtual machine without powering it off.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer, D, highlights that the hot-add feature allows for resource enhancements without downtime. Option A pertains to live migration, not hot-add. Option B describes cloning, which is unrelated to the hot-add concept, and C, while related to application management, does not address the addition of resources.
