VMware vSphere 8.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2022) — Question 73

What is a pre-requisite for increasing datastore capacity?

Answer options

• A. The backing device for the datastore has enough free space.
• B. The datastore is managed by Storage DRS (SDRS).
• C. The datastore is 100% full.
• D. There are NO powered-on virtual machines on the datastore.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because for a datastore to be expanded, the underlying backing device must have available free space. Options B and D are not prerequisites for increasing capacity, and option C is incorrect since a full datastore cannot be expanded.
