VMware vSphere 7.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2021) — Question 58

An administrator manages a cluster containing Production and Test VMs. Production VMs run on a VSS port group and a storage array separate from the Test
VMs. The administrator wants to prevent large (>500GB) file transfers in Test from impacting Production.
Which two configuration changes should the administrator make to achieve this? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Migrate the VSS port groups to VDS port groups.
• B. Install a second virtual NIC in the Production VMs.
• C. Move the Production VMs to a resource pool with a memory reservation.
• D. Enable the Test VMs to a dedicated folder with CPU shares set to low.

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct answers are A and B because migrating to VDS port groups can provide better traffic management and isolation, while adding a second virtual NIC can enhance network throughput for the Production VMs. Options C and D do not directly address the issue of preventing interference from Test VM transfers on Production VMs.
