VMware vSphere 7.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2021) — Question 90

Which condition would be prevent a vSphere Administrator from increasing the vCPU on a virtual machine to 128 vCPUs?

Answer options

• A. CPU Affinity is enabled on the virtual machine.
• B. The host is running on the Enterprise license.
• C. Hyper-threading is enabled on the host.
• D. There are too few logical cores on the host.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because a virtual machine can only be allocated as many vCPUs as there are logical cores available on the host. Options A, B, and C do not limit the maximum number of vCPUs that can be assigned; they pertain to configuration settings that do not directly affect the core availability.
