Question 14

An administrator receives an escalation to investigate a low disk space alarm on a datastore.
The administrator discovers that a snapshot has been accidentally taken on a production, write-intensive database server.
The snapshot has grown to nearly 1 TB in size in less than an hour and continues growing every second.
Which behavior should the administrator expect while deleting the snapshot?

Answer 14

ESXi will commit the snapshot delta disk into the base disk; ongoing database write activity could result in long stun times.
