A vSphere administrator upgrades a version 5.1.0 vSphere Distributed Switch to version
5.5.0. Another vSphere administrator, unaware of this change, tries to add an ESXi version
5.1.0 host to the switch and fails. What is causing this addition of the ESXi host to fail?

A vSphere administrator creates a new vSphere Distributed Switch. The administrator
receives notice from the service desk that a cluster of vSphere hosts has disconnected from
vCenter Server. This disconnect occurred immediately after the new switch was created. •
This vSphere Distributed Switch is the only distributed switch managed by vCenter. • The
virtual machines are still functional and the applications are still accessible by end users. On
the ESXi hosts, which step must the vSphere administrator take to allow vCenter Server to
reconnect?

A vSphere administrator is administering a vSphere Distributed Switch port group using the
vSphere Web Client. The port group was configured using Static binding, but the number of
ports must increase as virtual machines are added to the port group. Which port allocation
setting should the administrator use to achieve this goal?

An administrator is deploying vSphere 5.5. The administrator creates a vSphere Distributed
Switch, then uses Auto Deploy to deploy several ESXi hosts. After the hosts are deployed,
the administrator notices that LACP packets are not being sent between them. Which
condition would cause this issue to occur?

A virtual machine is receiving a large number of network packets, which is affecting the
performance of other virtual machines connected to the same virtual network. What should
the vSphere administrator do to resolve the issue?

A virtual machine is unable to communicate with another virtual machine. Both virtual
machines are connected to the Production port group on the same virtual switch and are
running on the same host. Which configuration is causing the inability of the virtual
machines to communicate?

Which two statements are true regarding a new vSphere deployment that is using software
FCoE boot from SAN? (Choose two.)

Which feature requires an administrator to configure an RDM with Virtual Compatibility
Mode?

A virtual machine has the following configuration: • Thin provisioned virtual disks • The
VMFS datastore on which it resides is on a thin provisioned LUN. • The storage array is
VAAI-enabled. What is the behavior of the virtual machine when it encounters an
out-of-space condition?

What should an administrator do to configure multi-pathing using software iSCSI?
