A customer wants to use hard partitioning with Oracle VM to restrict the number of cores that can
be used by a virtual machine to four cores.
Which method will best accomplish that goal?
A.
In Oracle VM Manager, set the maximum number of CPUs to 4.
B.
Use the xm vcpu-pin command on the domain once it is up and running, using 4 for the CPUs
parameter.
C.
Modify the cpus line in vm.cfg to set the cpus to 0-3.
D.
Use the xm vcpu-set command before the domain is up and running, using 4 for the CPUs
parameter.
E.
Modify the vcpus line in vm.cfg to read: vcpus=4.
This answer is brutally wrong.
Oracle documentation clearly mentions that hard partitioning can only be achieved by pinning the vcpus to the physical cpus which is done by xm vcpu-pin command.
Luckily I work on OVMs and know that correct answer is B indeed.
I request the admin of this site to not mislead other people.
Hi Rakesh,
Are the answers to the remaining questions in 1Z0-540 correct?
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks
