Windows virtual machines use a page file and Linux virtual machines use a swap partition for
virtual memory. When determining the appropriate size for these, which of the following files would
be affected?

A.
the -flat.vmdk file

B.
the .vmdk file

C.
the .vswp file

D.
the Service Console swap partition

Explanation:
The -flat.vmdk file. This is the default large virtual disk data file that is created when you add a virtual hard drive to your VM that is not an RDM. When using thick disks, this file will be approximately the same size as what you specify when you create your virtual hard drive. Since both the Windows page file and Linux swap partition are located on the virtual disk, the -flat.vmdk file will be affected.
