Which of the following describes the recommended maximum memory value displayed when
configuring a virtual machine?
A.
The threshold above which the physical memory of the ESX/ESXi host is insufficient to run the
virtual machine at optimal performance.
B.
The value that the operating system vendor reports as being optimal for performance.
C.
The maximum value the guest operating system supports.
D.
The threshold needed in order for the ESX/ESXi host to satisfy a reservation value.
Explanation:
The virtual machine settings editor also shows a value for the maximum amount of
memory for best performance. If you have only one virtual machine running on the host
and you set virtual machine memory to this value, the virtual machine can run entirely in
RAM. A virtual machine running completely in RAM performs better than a virtual
machine that must swap some of its memory to disk.
