You have a datacenter that contains six servers. Each server has the Hyper-V server role installed and runs
Windows Server 2012 R2. The servers are configured as shown in the following table.
Host4 and Host5 are part of a cluster named Cluster1. Cluster1 hosts a virtual machine named VM1.
You need to move VM1 to another Hyper-V host. The solution must minimize the downtime of VM1.
To which server and by which method should you move VM1?
A.
To Host3 by using a storage migration
B.
To Host6 by using a storage migration
C.
To Host2 by using a live migration
D.
To Host1 by using a quick migration
Explanation:
A:
Host3 is the only option to allow minimum downtime and has same processor manufacturers
B:
Live Storage
Migration requires same processor manufacturers
C:
Live migration requires same same processor
manufacturers D. Quick migration has downtime
NOTE: Exam may have more options but same answer

I believe the answer is D Quick Migration, because the question asks that you need to move the vm from the cluster to another host not just the storage.
If you use storage migration you change the location of the storage but the VM would still be running from the cluster not from the other host.
Quick Migration requires target node to be in a cluster. It also requires there to be shared storage between the nodes. Host 3 has an iscsi disk, but does not state that other nodes can access it in some way. Therefore the answer given is correct.
But TaSpanja is correct in that Storage Migration is for just moving the storage and not the VM, the question states we need to move the VM to another host.
Quick Migration requires shared storage
Live Migration requires the same processors
So do we have a correct answer?
If we are to assume that VM1 is being completely removed from the cluster and not being moved to a cluster node, then the best answer is: A
Normally the VM would be moved to the other host server in its cluster using a quick/live migration.
