A company has a Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V host server named NYC-HOST1 that hosts a
virtual machine (VM) named NYC-VM1. A critical security update must be applied immediately to
NYC-VM1. There is no time to test the update before deployment. You must minimize the amount of
time needed to restore the VM. You need to capture the state of NYC-VM1 before you install the
critical security update. What should you do?
A.
From Hyper-V Manager, select NYC-VM1, and then create a checkpoint.
B.
Run the Windows PowerShell command Save-VM NYC-VM1.
C.
Run the Windows PowerShell command Get-VMSnapshot NYC-VM1.
D.
Run the Windows PowerShell command Export-VMSnapshot NYC-VM1.
Correct answer should be A. B is wrong as Save-VM hybernates the machine, and it cannot be patched when hybernated.
