VMware vSphere 8.x Professional — Question 25

An administrator is attempting to configure Storage I/O Control (SIOC) on five datastores within a vSphere environment. The administrator is being asked to determine why SIOC configuration completed successfully on only four of the datastores.
What are two possible reasons why the configuration was not successful? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. The datastore contains Raw Device Mappings (RDMs).
• B. SAS disks are used for the datastore.
• C. The datastore has multiple extents.
• D. The datastore is using ISCSI.
• E. The administrator is using NFS storage.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

The correct answers are A and C because Storage I/O Control cannot be configured on datastores that have Raw Device Mappings or multiple extents. Options B, D, and E do not inherently prevent SIOC from being configured.
