Which two tools can the administrator use? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• B. Direct Console User Interface (DCUI)
• C. vSphere Performance Charts
• D. vCenter Command Line Interface
• E. ESXi Shell

Correct answer: C, E

Explanation

The correct answers are C and E. vSphere Performance Charts provide detailed information on performance metrics, making them ideal for monitoring VM performance.
