An administrator is managing a virtualized environment that has limited available physical NICs on the hyper host. The hypervisor hosts physical switch ports are configured for VLAN tagging. A new application is being deployed that will need to be on a new subnet.
What should the administrator implement to provide this new subnet for the application servers in the least amount of time?
A. Add ports to an existing port group
B. Add virtual switch to the hypervisor host
C. Add a new port group with an individual VLAN
D. Add network cards to the hypervisor host
What is typically included with an IaaS bundle featuring compute, storage, and networking?
A. Encryption technology
B. Management tools
C. Integrated development environment
D. Storage virtualization
What provides fault tolerance and load balancing for FC traffic?
A. Multipathing software
B. NIC Teaming
C. HBA Teaming
D. Fibre Channel Initiator
You are meeting with the CIO to discuss your VDC design. They question the amount of capital that is being invested in iSCSI adapters. They state that, because of the number of adapters required, it is more cost-effective to purchase 10 Gigabit Ethernet NICs and use the integrated hypervisor software stack.
What effect will this have on the hypervisors?
A. Increased CPU load
B. Increased amount of I/O
C. Decreased amount of I/O
D. Decreased CPU load
Consider the following: virus scanning software, email clients, and word processing software. Which type of application are they?

D. Legacy
The corporate data center has role segregation between network, security, and OS/systems administrators.
The OS/system administrators also are responsible for the OSs running on hypervisors, and the hypervisors themselves. The company wants to keep the roles segregated.
Which virtualized switch should they use so that the network administrators can manage the switches without logging in to the virtualized environments?
A. Brocade ED-10000
B. Third-party virtual switch
C. VMware vDistributed switch
D. Basic VMware vSwitch
A small law firm that does not currently have any virtualization technologies implemented has recently merged with another firm of approximately the same size. They are planning to consolidate into a single location. They have decided to virtualize their servers and they would like to consolidate storage. It has been determined that 80% of the file server data has not been accessed in over 90 days.
What can they implement to achieve higher storage efficiency?
A. A file archiving plan, to leverage inter-array storage tiering
B. Quotas, to limit the amount of capacity users or groups can consume
C. File extension filters, to prevent non-business related data from being stored in home directories
D. Vertical storage tiering, to ensure data is placed on the appropriate drive technology
