An administrator is configuring vMotion in their environment. As part of the implementation, an
administrator is examining resource mapping for virtual machines.
What is a likely cause of the error shown in the exhibit?
A.
vMotion has been disabled because the are no other hosts in the cluster with vMotion enabled.
B.
vMotion has not been enabled on the Production port group.
C.
The administrator has not created a Managent network.
D.
vMotion has not been enabled on a VMkernel port group.
The answer is supposed to be D.
Explanation:
This only shows up in the Maps when the vmotion OPTION is not checked in the PORT group – hence vMotion is DISABLED!
Other Notes: vMotion doesn’t need a “production” network it can use any network. It also should not be using a “production” network.
There are two errors shown in the exhibit. The grey box message “vMotion is disabled” and the red X on the host.
The disabled problem can be fixed by answer D – enable it on the port group.
The red X problem can be fixed by answer C – create a management network.
ANSWER C is the best choice.
Note:
The vMotion map provides information as to whether vMotion might be possible, and if not, what an administrator might do to remedy the situation. It does not guarantee that a particular vMotion migration will be successful.
Hosts marked with a red X are unsuitable candidates for migration. A lack of edges connecting that host and the virtual machine’s networks and datastores indicate that the host is unsuitable because of networking or datastore incompatibility. If the unsuitability is because of CPU or software incompatibility, the information appears in a tooltip when the pointer hovers over the host in question.
YES! Good exam question from Nov 2013!
