Refer to the Exhibit.
An administrator is changing the settings on a vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS). During this process, the ESXi Management IP address is set to an address which
can no longer communicate with the vCenter Server.
What is the most likely outcome of this action?
A.
The host will disconnect from the vCenter Server and remain disconnected.
B.
The host will automatically detect the communication issue and revert the change.
C.
The host will stay connected with the change, but show an alert.
D.
The host will disconnect and migrate the vDS portgroup to a standard switch.

B is correct:

While ‘B’ is the correct answer, the question itself is sounds stupid (again – this is to you guys at VMware Education) because changing ESX mgmt IP (or any vmkernel IP for that matter) cannot be done by changing settings on VDS. What those “gurus” may have meant is vmk migration from a VSS to VDS or any change that may result in loss of connectivity due to, for example, uplink misconfiguration.
