VMware exam Questions and Verified
Answers
Q: Which statements accurately describe VMs?
ANS: Host machine can run more than one VM at the same time.
A VM is like a machine running inside another machine.
A VM is a software representation of a physical computer and its components.
Q:
Which component of a VM links a computer's hardware and software?
ANS: Driver
Q:
Server Consolidation
ANS: VMs can reduce power, cooling, and maintenance costs by reducing the
number of physical servers.
Q:
Isolation
ANS: If a guest OS experiences a failure other VMs are not affected.
Q:
Hardware independence
ANS: If you must use an OS that requires specific hardware, a VM can be
provisioned with standardized software-based hardware.
Q:
Encapsulation

ANS: You can move a VM from one host of another to perform routine maintenance
of the physical server.
Q:
Which statements accurately describe bare-metal hypervisors?
ANS: Bare-metal hypervisors are installed directly on the computer hardware.
An example of a bare-metal hypervisor is VMWare ESXi.
Q:
After you install a hypervisor, it helps you to virtualize physical resources for VMs. This
virtualization of resources follows a sequence of steps.
ANS: TCAMI
The hypervisor takes control of the physical resources of the host.
You create a VM and specify the required hardware to run a specific OS.
The hypervisor abstracts the physical resources into virtual hardware.
The hypervisor manages the virtual hardware that is assigned to VMs.
You install a guest OS inside the VM, just as you do on a physical computer.
Q:
The ESXi host can route the network traffic of multiple VMs through the same physical
network card.
ANS: True
Q:
An ESXi host with 12 GB RAM can run 3 VMs only if the VM's total allocated memory is
12 GB or less.
, Page | 3
ANS: False
Q:
You can create 10 VMs with two virtual CPUs each, even though the ESXi host has only
four CPUs in total.
ANS: True
Q:
VMs can share the virtual resources that their ESXi host manages.
ANS: True
Q:
Which VMware solution makes server virtualization possible?
ANS: vSphere
Q:
Service Management
ANS: Portfolio Management
Operational Management
Q:
Cloud Management
ANS: Service Catalog
Self Service Portal
Orchestration
Q:
Virtual Infrastructure
ANS: Hypervisor
Pools of Resources
Virtualization Control
Q:
Business Continuity
, Page | 4
ANS: Fault Tolerance and Disaster Recovery
Back Up and Restore
Replication
Q:
Physical Resources
ANS: Compute
Storage
Network
Q:
In which layer of the SDDC does vSphere fit?
ANS: Virtual Infrastructure
Q:
Which type of resource does vSphere virtualize in VMware Cloud Foundation?
ANS: Compute
Q:
Which components do you use to perform the administrative tasks to run a vSphere
Infrastructure?
ANS: vCenter Server
ESXi
Q:
The vSphere Client communicates with vCenter Server using TCP port 443.
ANS: True
Q:
vSphere components communicate using designated ports.
ANS: True
