During peak operating hours, an administrator finds that a business-critical application
running in a virtual machine is not performing as well as during normal hours. Which
memory management method can be used to guarantee that the application performs well
at all times?

A vSphere environment is created with two virtual machines, VM23 and VM43. Each virtual
machine has an instance of the front-end web application for the company’s manufacturing
management database. A physical load-balancer is configured for the application. Which
type of DRS rule should be implemented for VM23 and VM43?

Which three services will continue to function when vCenter Server is unavailable? (Choose
three.)

A request has been made to the SAN administrator to provision a new LUN. A LUN (LUN 6)
is created, and the SAN administrator presents the LUN to an ESXi 5.x host, using the

configuration for the ESXi host, and does not see the new LUN. Other LUNs from the same
storage array are visible. Which two conditions are most likely to cause the error described?
(Choose two.)

A database administrator has reported periodic poor performance on a particular virtual
machine. The virtual machine administrator has noticed a significant drop in performance
when utilized memory exceeds 1GB. What does this indicate and what could be checked

What would be a valid reason to enable traffic shaping?

Users have reported performance issues with an application running on a Windows VM.
Performance analysis shows high CPU activity on the ESXi host but low CPU activity on the
Windows VM. A high value in which overview graph and counter on the virtual machine’s
Performance tab would confirm the results of the performance analysis?

Which option could be used for vSphere HA heartbeats?

The performance graph for a virtual machine with 1GB of RAM shows the Swap In rate to
be 150 MBps and the Balloon value to be at 0 MB. Users of the virtual machine are
complaining that performance is slow. Which two actions could increase performance of the
virtual machine? (Choose two.)
