An administrator identifies a snapshot file named “Win10-000001-sesparse.vmdk” on a datastore.
Which type of information can be determined about this datastore? (Choose the best answer.)
A. The datastore is formatted as VMFS3.
B. The datastore is formatted as VMFS6.
C. The datastore is a raw device mapping.
D. The datastore is a vSAN datastore.
Answer: B
Explanation:
SEsparse is a default format for all delta disks on the VMFS6 datastores. On VMFS5, SEsparse is
used for virtual disks of the size 2 TB and larger

B. vSphere Fault Tolerance
C. vSphere Replication
D. Instant Clone
Answer: C
Explanation:
vSphere Replication Use Cases:
- Data protection locally, within a single site

- Data center migration
An administrator sees a virtual machine message that reads, “Consolidation is required” in the
vSphere Client.
Which action does ESXi take when the administrator completes snapshot consolidation? (Choose
the best answer.)
A. Collapses all snapshots in the current snapshot tree
B. Commits redundant delta disks to the base disk
C. Collapses all snapshots into a single snapshot

B
During the staging of a patch on a vCenter Server Appliance, an error was encountered and the
process stopped. An administrator resolved the root cause and is ready to continue with the staging
of the patch.
From the vCenter Management Interface, which action should the administrator take to continue
the process from the point at which the error occurred?
A. Use the Stage and Install option to resume the staging
B. Use the Resume option to resume the staging.
C. Use the Unstage option to restart the staging.
D. Use the Stage Only option to restart the staging.
B
Explanation:
If vCenter Server encounters a problem staging the patches, the vCenter Server Management
Interface displays the Resume button. Correct the problem preventing the patches from staging,
and click Resume to finish staging the patches. The staging process resumes from the point at
which vCenter Server encountered the problem.
An administrator is adding a new ESXi host to an existing vSphere cluster. When selecting the
cluster, the administrator is unable to use the Cluster Quickstart workflow to add and configure the
additional host.
What could be the root cause of this issue?
A. The administrator has previously dismissed the Cluster Quickstart workflow.
B. The administrator must manually add the host to the cluster before using the Cluster Quickstart
workflow.
C. The administrator has not been assigned the required permissions to use the Cluster Quickstart
workflow.
D. The administrator must enable the Cluster Quickstart workflow option in VMware vCenter.
Answer: A
Explanation:
You can use the Skip Quickstart button to exit the Quickstart workflow, and continue configuring
the cluster and its hosts manually. You can add new hosts individually, and manually configure
those hosts. Once skipped, you cannot restore the Quickstart workflow for the cluster.

update.
B. No action is needed - Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters will be updated automatically as part of the
update process
C. No action is needed - Incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters can be manually updated after
the Supervisor cluster update.
D. Update incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters prior to the Supervisor cluster update.

An administrator wants to create virtual machine (VM) templates and store them in a content library.
The administrator would like to use the content library to manage different versions of these
templates so that reverting to an earlier version is an option.
How should the administrator create these templates?
A. Select a VM in the vCenter inventory.
Clone the VM to the content library as a VM template type.
B. Select a VM template in the vCenter inventory.
Clone the template to the content library.
C. Export a VM in the vCenter inventory to an OVF template.
Import the OVF template into the content library.
D. Convert a VM to a template in the vCenter inventory.
Clone the template to the content library.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Clone the VM to the content library as a VM template type
An administrator is tasked with configuring certificates for a VMware software-defined data center
(SDDC) based on the following requirements:
- All certificates should use certificates trusted by the Enterprise Certificate Authority (CA).
- The solution should minimize the ongoing management overhead of replacing certificates.
Which three actions should the administrator take to ensure that the solution meets corporate policy?
(Choose three.)
A. Replace the VMware Certificate Authority (VMCA) certificate with a self-signed certificate generated
from the VMCA.
B. Replace the machine SSL certificates with custom certificates generated from the Enterprise CA.
C. Replace the machine SSL certificates with trusted certificates generated from the VMware
Certificate Authority (VMCA).
D. Replace the VMware Certificate Authority (VMCA) certificate with a custom certificate generated
from the Enterprise CA.
E. Replace the solution user certificates with custom certificates generated from the Enterprise CA.
F. Replace the solution user certificates with trusted certificates generated from the VMware
Certificate Authority (VMCA).

Refer to the exhibit. An administrator set up the following configuration:
- The distributed switch has three ESXi hosts, and each host has two 40 Gbps NICs.
- The amount of bandwidth reserved for virtual machine (VM) traffic is 6 Gbps.
- The administrator wants to guarantee that VMs in the Finance distributed port group can access
50 percent of the available reserved bandwidth for VM traffic.
Given this scenario, what should the size (in Gbps) of the Finance network resource pool be?
A. 18
B. 80
C. 36
D. 120
Answer: A
Explanation:
It says 50% of the reserved bandwidth. Total reserved bandwidth is 6Gbps x 6 physical NICs =
36Gbps and 50% of that is 18Gbps.
