VMware vSphere 7.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2021) — Question 92

Which condition would 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. There are too few logical cores on the host
• D. Hyper-threading is enabled on the host

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as the number of logical cores on the host must be sufficient to accommodate the requested vCPUs. If there are not enough logical cores, the increase cannot be made. Options A, B, and D do not directly limit the number of vCPUs that can be assigned; instead, they pertain to specific configurations or licensing that do not impact the core count limitation.
