Which vSphere feature provides dynamic allocation of storage capacity?
Which vSphere feature provides dynamic allocation of storage capacity?
I believe the correct answer is C:sDRS
See ; http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vsphere.storage.doc_50/GUID-8AE88758-20C1-4873-99C7-181EF9ACFA70.html
Storage DRS recommendations appear on the Storage DRS tab in the vSphere Client datastore view. Recommendations also appear when you attempt to put a datastore into Storage DRS maintenance mode. When you apply Storage DRS recommendations, vCenter Server uses Storage vMotion to migrate virtual machine disks to other datastores in the datastore cluster to balance the resources.
D is correct. Explanation provided by Anitha does not mention the phrase ‘dynamic allocation of storage capacity’ at all.
The following reference from VMware mentions the phrase precisely: http://www.vmware.com/products/cloud-os/infrastructure.html
vSphere Storage DRS
Allocates and balances storage capacity and I/O dynamically across collections of datastores. This feature includes management capabilities that minimize the risk of running out of space and the risk of I/O bottlenecks slowing the performance of virtual machines.

Typically, storage provisioning is a manual process…

Correct Answer is D
vStorage Thin Provisioning
Reason: vStorage Thin Provisioning dynamically allocate the storage capacity and Storage DRS will Migrate (Load Balance) b/w storage
