4. Question 104 · 110 in bank

   An administrator manages VM templates and ISO images for a remote office. Their main re-quirements are to store these templates in a single repository and manage different versions of the templates. What solution should the administrator deploy to meet these requirements?

   • AA vSAN datatore
   • BA shared VMFS datastore
   • CA local content library
   • DA subscribed content library

   Show answer

   Answer: C

   Explanation

   Answer C is correct. We are only speaking about 1 remote office, and 1 place to centralize the templates. A local content library is sufficient. Using a subscribed content library would need you already have a published content library somewhere, which is not presented here.

5. Question 105 · 110 in bank

   An administrator needs to create affinity rules for the following vSphere cluster setup: • The cluster contains two virtual machines (VMs) named app01 and app02. • The cluster contains six hosts named esx11 through esx16. • The app01 and app02 VMs run software that is licensed to run only on esx11, esx12, or esx13. • vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) is configured. Which set of steps must the administrator perform to ensure that the licensing requirements are met for app01 and app02?

   • A1. Add all the hosts to a host group. 2. Create a VM-VM anti-affinity rule for app01 and app02.
   • B1. Add the esx11 – esx13 hosts to a host group. 2. Create a VM-VM affinity rule for app01 and app02.
   • C1. Add the VMs to a VM group and the esx11 – esx13 hosts to a host group. 2. Create a VM-Host required rule between the VM group and the host group.
   • D1. Add the VMs to a VM group and the esx11 – esx13 hosts to a host group. 2. Create a VM-Host preferential rule between the VM group and the host group.

6. Question 106 · 110 in bank

   The vCenter inventory contains a virtual machine (VM) template called Linux-01. The adminis-trator wants to install a software patch into Linux-01 while allowing users to continue to access Linux-01 to deploy VMs. Which series of steps should the administrator take to accomplish this task?

   • A1. Verify that Linux-01 is in a content library. 2. Clone Linux-01 3. Convert the clone to a VM. 4. Install the software patch.
   • B1. Convert Linux-01 to a VM 2. Install the software patch. 3. Convert the VM back to a VM template. 4. Add Linux-01 to the content library.
   • C1. Verify that Linux-01 is in a content library. 2. Check out Linux-01. 3. Install the software patch. 4. Check in Linux-01.
   • D1. Clone Linux-01. 2. Convert the clone to a VM. 3. Install the software patch. 4. Convert the VM back to a template.

   Show answer

   Answer: D

   Explanation

   No A -> Does not regenerate the template after applying the patches No B -> When converting the template to VM, the template is no longer available for vms deployment while the update is being done No C-> The procedure is correct, but the letter says that the template is in the vCenter inventory, but does not mention a content library. Yes D -> the procedure maintains the original template while the clone is updated and then regenerates a new template upon completion.
