VMware Carbon Black Cloud Professional (2021) — Question 50

An administrator has added a supported PCI graphics accelerator to a virtual machine configuration. When the administrator tries to power on the virtual machine, an error is displayed and the virtual machine remains powered off.
Which of the following virtual machine configuration settings needs to be applied to enable the virtual machine to power on?

Answer options

• A. Disable CPU Hot Plug.
• B. Enable Video Card 3D Graphics.
• C. Reserve all guest memory.
• D. Set Memory Shares to High.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as reserving all guest memory is often required when using PCI devices to ensure that the virtual machine has the necessary resources to function properly. The other options do not directly address the resource allocation needed for the PCI graphics accelerator to operate, which is why they would not resolve the power-on issue.
