Section 7 – Establish Service Levels
- Objective 7.3 – Create and Configure Resource Pools
QUESTION 35
When adjusting the slider to allocate resources for a Resource Pool, the yellow indicator on the resource bar indicates:
A.A warning flag set at 75% of the available resource amount
B.The maximum available resource amount
C.The minimum required resource amount
D.The recommended resource amount
E.The remaining resources available
Answer: E
Explanation:
If you have a look for a Virtual machine in a resource pool, in the left bottom corner is written “remaining resources available”.
QUESTION 36
Resource pools at the same level are called?
A.Parent Pools
B.Root Resource Pools
C.Sibling Pools
D.Child Pools
Answer: C
Explanation:
Resource Management Guide : Understanding and Managing Resource Pools : What Are Resource Pools?
Resource pools at the same level are called siblings
QUESTION 37
Exhibit:
Assuming this is the only virtual machine, and the only resource pool, what is the maximum amount of memory that could be configured for use by the virtual machine that is part of the Finance Resource Pool?
A.57 MB less virtual machine overhead
B.13375 MB less virtual machine overhead
C.16384 MB less virtual machine overhead
D.3009 MB less virtual machine overhead
Answer: D
Explanation:
If a memory reservation value higher than the available reservation (unreserved above) is entered in the GUI, it is corrected to a figure just less than this. Therefore D is correct.
Note (A) 57 MB refers to the memory in use, not the memory available, and (C) refers to the memory share value, a relative figure used to divide out total available memory for this pool from total parent pool resources, (the ESX host).
QUESTION 38
Which statement is true about resource pools?
A.They may contain one or more child VMware HA clusters.
B.They may contain one or more child DRS clusters.
C.They may aggregate groups of resource pools.
D.They may contain one or more child resource pools.
Answer: D
Explanation:
The graphic below shows a resource pool containing a child resource pool.
QUESTION 39
Which three tasks can a Resource Pool Administrator perform? (Choose three.)
A.create a new template from a virtual machine
B.change the resource pool resource limits
C.modify assigned licenses
D.add a port group to a virtual switch
E.create a new virtual machine in the resource pool
Answer: ABE
Explanation:
The dialog below shows an administrator can create a new template from a virtual machine, modify a resource pool, and create a new virtual machine, and assign a virtual machine to a resource pool, (create a new virtual machine in the resource pool).
QUESTION 40
Which three attributes can you specify when creating a resource pool for CPU or Memory? (Choose three.)
A.Number of shares
B.Limit
C.Limited
D.Maximum bandwidth
E.Reservation
Answer: ABE
Explanation:

Add a Resource Pool
In CPU Resources, specify how to allocate CPU resources.
Shares Specify CPU shares for this resource pool with respect to the parent’s total CPU resources. Sibling resource pools share resources according to their relative share values bounded by the reservation and limit.
Select Low, Normal, or High specify share values respectively in a 1:2:4 ratio.
Select Custom to give each virtual machine a specific number of shares, which expresses a proportional weight.
Reservation Specify a guaranteed CPU allocation for this resource pool.
Limit Specify the upper limit for this resource pool’s CPU allocation. You can usually accept the default.
QUESTION 41
What is the purpose of resource shares?
A.to prevent starting virtual machines when resources are scarce
B.to set guaranteed maximum resource usage
C.to set guaranteed minimum resource usage
D.to prioritize resources when total resources are scarce
Answer: D
Explanation:
Shares Specify CPU shares for this resource pool with respect to the parent’s total CPU resources. Sibling resource pools share resources according to their relative share values bounded by the reservation and limit.
Select Low, Normal, or High specify share values respectively in a 1:2:4 ratio.
Select Custom to give each virtual machine a specific number of shares, which expresses a proportional weight. This will prioritize resources when total resources are scarce, (A).
Reservation Specify a guaranteed CPU allocation for this resource pool.
Limit Specify the upper limit for this resource pool’s CPU allocation, (B)
Reservations will prevent starting virtual machines when resources are scarce, (A).
There is no option to set a guaranteed minimum resource usage (C) – resource requirements are dependant on the Virtual machine not the resource pool.
