VMware vSphere 7.x Professional for Service Providers — Question 58

A vSphere administrator creates a VM with 2 vCPUs and 4GB memory. A 3GB memory reservation is applied to the VM.
What size is .vswp file when the VM is powered on?

Answer options

• A. 1GB
• B. 2GB
• C. 3GB
• D. 4GB

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The .vswp file size is determined by the amount of memory allocated to the VM minus the memory reservation. Since the VM has 4GB of RAM and a reservation of 3GB, the .vswp file will be 1GB. The other options are incorrect as they do not reflect the difference between the total RAM and the reserved amount.
