An administrator decreases the CPU share value for two virtual machines in a DRS cluster from

1000 to 100 shares. The DRS cluster contains more resources than both virtual machines can
consume.
The characteristics of the virtual machines are listed below:
• The second virtual machine is a clone of the first virtual machine.
• Both virtual machines are identical in every way.
• Both virtual machines are not attached to the IP network.
• Both virtual machines are powered on.
What impact on the virtual machines’ performance will be observed?

A.
The virtual machines will have equal performance under all conditions.

B.
The performance of the virtual machines will reduce by a factor of ten once the share value is
adjusted.

C.
The virtual machines will have equal performance under normal conditions and reduced
performance when contention occurs.

D.
The original virtual machine will perform better than the clone when contention occurs.
