Which two components must be installed in monitored virtual machines for vSphere HA Application monitoring to work? (Choose two)
A.
An Application Monitoring script
B.
The Application Monitoring agent
C.
VMware Tools
D.
The vSphere HA agent
Explanation:
VMware now provides a mechanism for this through the use of the vSphere High Availability (vSphere HA) application monitoring API, which is included with vSphere 5.0. This API allows a developer to create a monitoring program, running within the guest OS that communicates with vSphere HA using heartbeats. These heartbeats inform vSphere HA that an application is functioning properly. Upon loss of a heartbeat, vSphere HA will restart the virtual machine.By leveraging this API, customers and vendors can more easily craft solutions that take advantage of vSphere HA and the underlying infrastructure protection it provides.
The answer should be C and D – the word, “MUST be Installed”. There is no application monitoring agent. It is an option in HA.
