Immediately after installing an ESXi host, an administrator needs to examine the following log files:
• /var/log/hostd.log
• /var/log/vmkernel.log
• /var/log/vpxa.log
Which two connections would allow an administrator to examine these files? (Choose two.)
A.
Connecting to the Direct Console User Interface
B.
Attaching a vSphere Client directly to the ESXi host
C.
Attaching the vSphere Web Client directly to the ESXi host
D.
Attaching the vSphere Client to the vCenter Server managing the ESXi host
Explanation:
A & C would be the correct answers based on the vm kb located at
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2032076
You cannot connect to ESXi host directly with the web client.
should be A,B
Bill is well said, we can’t connect to ESXi host directly using Web Client.
Correct answers A B
A and C
Location of ESXi 5.1 and 5.5 log files
From the vSphere Web Client. For more information, see Viewing Log Files with the Log Browser in the vSphere Web Client in the vSphere Monitoring and Performance Guide.
A and B
A and B are correct, the host has just been installed. In vsphere 6 i believe you can access the host using a special kind of web client, but until then, if you want to connect with the host, it has to be either using DCUI or the windows client (vsphere client).
A and C are correct.

i vote A and D
iew System Logs on an ESXi Host
You can use the direct console interface to view the system logs on an ESXi host. These logs provide information about system operational events.
Procedure
1
From the direct console, select View System Logs.
2
Press a corresponding number key to view a log.
vCenter Server agent (vpxa) logs appear if the host is managed by vCenter Server.
3
Press Enter or the spacebar to scroll through the messages.
4
(Optional) Perform a regular expression search.
a
Press the slash key (/).
b
Type the text to find.
c
Press Enter
The found text is highlighted on the screen.
5
Press q to return to the direct console.
Only option C is incorrect (but).
a) clear
b) file->export->Export system Logs
c) vSWC is not active on ESXi, but using ESXi web gui it is possible to browse files “https://ip/host” or using vSWC connected to vCenter, not to ESXi. Anyway incorrect.
d)similar to b, but choose host first (or later).
But maybe option “C” should be understood as “use web browser to connect to the ESXi host”?
If so, A&C (direct access to logs and not to the log bundle) may be preferred.
Update – D is incorrect, as it is a new installed ESXi (not added to the vCenter yet?). I this context A and B.
Good point! 🙂 thanks 🙂
C is incorrect as you cannot connect a web client directly to a host
The answer is A and B.
C – NO because vsphere web client cannot connect to host, only to vcenter.
D – NO because connecting to vcenter show only the vcenter logs (vpxd). You can export a “System Logs” with included the logs hostd.log, vmkernel.log and vpxa.log but this operation is not Immediately as required by the question.
A and C.
C – you can browse the log files via http://hostIPAddress/host
I agree, you can browse the log files via https://hostIPAddress/host, that means using a web browser, not a “vSphere Web Client”.
