VMware vSphere 7.x Professional for Service Providers — Question 62

A vSphere administrator needs to quickly move a critical VM from an AMD-cluster to an Intel-cluster.
How can the vSphere administrator move the VM?

Answer options

• A. vSphere encrypted vMotion
• B. Cold Migration
• C. vSphere Storage vMotion
• D. vSphere vMotion

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct method to move a VM between clusters with different CPU architectures is Cold Migration, as it allows for the transfer of the VM while ensuring compatibility. vSphere vMotion and vSphere encrypted vMotion do not support cross-CPU architecture migrations, and vSphere Storage vMotion is used for migrating VM storage without downtime, not for migrating between different CPU types.
