B. Register the vendor hardware management system as a vCenter Server extension.
C. Download the firmware updates from the VMware website.
D. Download the firmware updates from the vendor website.
E. Run a hardware compatibility check using vSphere Lifecycle Manager.
F. Configure vSphere Lifecycle Manager with a baseline for the cluster.

Question#3

After a recent unexplained peak in virtual machine (VM) CPU usage, an administrator is asked to monitor the VM performance for a recurrence of the issue.
Which two tools can the administrator use? (Choose two.)

A. vCenter Management Interface
B. Direct Console User Interface (DCUI)
C. vSphere Performance Charts
D. vCenter Command Line Interface

Question#4

An administrator is responsible for performing maintenance tasks on a vSphere cluster.
The cluster has the following configuration:
Identically configured vSphere ESXi hosts (esx01, esx02, esx03 and esx04)
All workloads are deployed into a single VMFS datastore provided by the external storage array vSphere High Availability (HA) has not been enabled vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) has not been enabled
Currently, a critical production application workload (VM1) is running on esx01.
Given this scenario, which two actions are required to ensure VM1 continues to run when esx01 is placed into maintenance mode? (Choose two.)

A. Fully automated DRS must be enabled on the cluster so that VM1 will be automatically migrated to another host within the cluster when esx01 is placed into maintenance mode.
B. VM1 must be manually shut down and cold migrated to another host within the cluster using vSphere vMotion before esx01 is placed into maintenance mode.
C. vSphere HA must be enabled on the cluster so that VM1 will be automatically migrated to another host within the cluster when esx01 is placed into maintenance mode.
D. VM1 must be manually live migrated to another host within the cluster using vSphere vMotion before esx01 is placed into maintenance mode.
E. VM1 must be manually migrated to another host within the cluster using vSphere Storage vMotion before esx01 is placed into maintenance mode.

Question#5

Following a merger with another company, an administrator is tasked with configuring an identity source for VMware vCenter so that all vSphere administrators can authenticate using their existing Active Directory accounts. Each company has user accounts in their own Active Directory forests.
The following additional information has been provided:
The corporate policy states that only Windows-based machine accounts are allowed in Active Directory.
Which action should the administrator take to configure vCenter Single Sign-On (SSO) to meet this requirement?

B. Configure SSO to use OpenLDAP as the identity source.
C. Join the vCenter Server Appliance to the LDAP domain.
D. Configure SSO to use Active Directory (Integrated Windows Authentication) as the identity source.
