VMware vSphere 8.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2022) — Question 52

An administrator wants to ensure that when virtual machines (VMs) are powered on, Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) places them on the best-suited host.
When the cluster becomes imbalanced, the administrator wants DRS to display recommendations for manual VM migration.
Which DRS automation level should the administrator select?

Answer options

• A. Manual
• B. Partially automated
• C. Fully automated
• D. Disabled

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Partially automated, as it allows DRS to provide recommendations for VM placement while still permitting manual intervention for migrations. Option A, Manual, would not provide any recommendations, while C, Fully automated, automatically migrates VMs without the need for manual review, and D, Disabled, turns off DRS functionality entirely.
