VMware vSphere 6 Foundations (VCP6-DCV) — Question 4

What may be a cause for failure to unmount an NFS datastore?

Answer options

• A. It has active snapshot files.
• B. It is being used for High Availability (HA) heartbeat.
• C. It is part of a Cluster.
• D. It is managed by Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS).

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because if the NFS datastore is being utilized for High Availability (HA) heartbeat, it cannot be unmounted while still in use. The other options do not directly prevent unmounting: active snapshots (A) can exist without blocking unmounting, being part of a Cluster (C) may not require unmounting, and DRS management (D) does not inherently prevent unmounting either.
