A browser lets you download the VI Client from the VirtualCenter Server or ESX Server
hosts. When you have appropriate login credentials, Web Access also lets you perform
limited management of your VirtualCenter Server and ESX Server hosts.
The VMware ESX Server 3.5 installation includes the following components:
VMware ESX Server – Software to manage and serve virtual machines.
VMware VI Web Access – Software to allow Web browser access to the ESX Server host
Note there is no option to deselect the VMware VI Web Access component during the
installation, so it is always installed on ESX Server.
QUESTION 7
Your desktop PC, like all desktop PCs at your office, has the Virtual Infrastructure Client
application installed. Your PC cannot connect to a certain virtual machine (VM) on your
ESX Server. Which troubleshooting test would be LEAST helpful in determining the
cause of this problem?
A. try to connect to a different VM
B. try to ping the DNS hostname of your service console
C. try to ping the IP address of a VM that is known to be up and working
D. try to ping the IP address of your service console
Answer: C
Explanation:
Ping is used to test connectivity. If you know you are trying to troubleshoot connectivity,
pinging a VM that is already up and working would be unlikely to indicate why your PC
cannot connect to another virtual machine.
