You need to recommend a solution to minimize the amount of disk space used for the snapshot of VM1

Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains a server named
Server1. Server1 runs Windows Server 2012 and has the Hyper- V server role installed.
On Server1, you create and start a virtual machine named VM1. VM1 is configured as shown in the following
table.

You need to recommend a solution to minimize the amount of disk space used for the snapshot of VM1.
What should you do before you create the snapshot?

What should you do before you create the snapshot?

A.
Run the Stop-VM cmdlet.

B.
Decrease the Minimum RAM.

C.
Run the Convert-VHD cmdlet.

D.
Convert diskl.vhd to a dynamically expanding disk.

Explanation:
A dynamically expanding disk, on the other hand, is a VHD, which starts small — usually at only a
few kilobytes — and expands as additional storage space is needed. It can only grow, however, to the size limit
you designate in the setup wizard.
Incorrect:
Not D: Convert-VHD
Converts the format, version type, and block size of a virtual hard disk file.

Its A6 because the format of disk does not natter for snapshot size

Seconded, the answer is ‘A’.
The disk configuration (dynamic Vs. fixed) has little impact on the snapshot size.
However snapshotting a machine whilst it is running means a RAM dump is also saved to preserve the systems running state at that moment. That requires as much disk space as RAM being used at that time. This is avoided if the machine is shutdown first, reducing the snapshot size by a great deal.
