Pass Your VMware VCP510 Exam Easy!

Hi Guys,

New to VMWare, i am doing the training. Just wanted to know is the link VMWare.BrainDump.VCP-510.v2011-11-01.by.LeonardoBR.159q.vce
Valid, Updated and more than enough to be studied to pass well in the exam.

Any Help Appreciated

@RR I agree Q53 is C,D

Hello guys I passed in my test today. Version 4.0 was my last version.

Thanks for all

Q53 - I put C,D(IP hash; originating virtual port ID) ; There's no policy - "source destination MAC hash" because the policy is only "source MAC hash"

Thnx for all your input guys i passed the exam with only 2 question that were discussed by sim.

I just passed my Exam now and al thanks to Lernardo and people who contributed.This dumb is so relevent

I only got 1 new question.

When coordinating the VM NMP and any installed 3-party MIP, what the PSA performs?
1) Implements logical devices bandwidth sharing
2) Process I/O request to logical devices
3) Associate physical path with logical devices
4) Manage physical path claiming and unclaiming

pass the EXAM today !!. have used V7 from vsphereking which is valid. got 4 8 new Qs..

WoW guys I just passed the Exam.This Dump is the valid one!!!Good Luck to those who still have to write.

Q97: Because is A,C ? I think B,C ??¿¿

I am soley using this V4 by lucz ,but tell me here vsphereking which Qs are corrected from V4 on your updated V7?

I am updating the dump as we speak. The discussed answer will be used the link will be shared in a moment. if others could upload the document and post link here as well that would be great. Also I will upload to this site which will take a few days.

My two cents on the FT question is this:
THE LICENSING MODEL SHOWS WHAT FEATURES you get with that version of vSphere. Therefore FT is only available with vCenter. no more debating this because we are going off on a tangent. I am sticking with the answers so far. The dump will have around 5-8 questions when I am done

Para Sim, te lo pregunto en español porque en ingles me expreso fatal. Lo que te preguntaba es si con la version 6 del archivo y las preguntas que has puesto es suificiente como para sacar el 300 que se necesita. Me presento el Jueves y me gustaria saber tu opinion

Thnx sim, i had some doubt on that 1 coz logically i thought that a higher priority will take a lower priority in to consideration!Will try to remember Qs that are not yet mentioned here 2moro!

testaker, for that question the correct answer is Priority 2. If you set the threshold to priority 2, it will take into consideration priority 1 and 2.

Anthony,the Question says migrate which means moving for me not copying!thnx a lot to all u guyz for ur input i hope to clear the exam 2moro!!!

A user wants to configure a DRS migration threshold that allow automated applied of all priority one & two remediation only. What is the setting?
1) Priority 2
2) Priority 1
3) The moderately Conservative setting
4) Default setting

Im taking exam tomorrow but im still not sure about this 1

Sorry, I am not sure the right answer for Q4. It says "to be migrated to another datastore" so "C" might be the correct one. VMware Data Recovery is just for a copy and for backup purpose.

Q2: Is anyone can check whether we are able to create FT by using command line? PowerCLI? Script? I guess that we still have possibilities to create FT without vCenter?

Thanks for your comments sim and sserg

I agree with sim about Q2 (ADE), phrase "Which of the following are only available with vCenter Server" is ambiguous. vCenter Server is needed initially to create FT VMs (like HA).

Hi Anthony

Q2 looks like a really tricky quiz, because existing Resource Pools are available without vCenter Server (I can't create a new one, but I see and edit settings (!) of existing resource pools if I connected directly to ESXi 5.0 host with vSphere Client).

About FT, I agree that FT like HA don't need vCenter Server for function, once it initially configured with vCenter. Thinking.=) I prefer answers: ADE
Any other suggestions about resource pools?

Hi Anthony,

As for Q3 it is true that fault tolerance will go on even if vCenter is unavailable in that moment, but it has to be installed in order to configure Fault Tolerance:
"
What happens if vCenter Server is offline when a failover event occurs?
Once Fault Tolerance is configured for a virtual machine, vCenter Server need not be online for FT to work. Even if vCenter Server is offline, failover will still occur from the primary to the secondary virtual machine. Additionally, the spawning of a new secondary virtual machine will also occur without vCenter Server."

Congratulations sim! (and your husband) and thanks for your info.

Hi sserg

Q2. Which of the following are only available with vCenter Server? (choose 3) . I would answer CDE.
For resource pool the option to create resource pools is disabled unless VMware DRS is enabled on the cluster.
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1004098

The FT can continue without a vCenter.
Page 9 of vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-50-availability-guide.pdf
-----------------------------------
The entire process is transparent and fully automated and occurs even if vCenter
Server is unavailable.
------------------------------------

Q4. I would answer AC.

Thanks

Oscar, good luck for tomorrow. Keep us posted :)

sserg, for Q3 that's what I answered but I'm still unsure if it is correct. For Q4 I answered storage vmotion and vm in suspended state and I have just checked that those are the right answers (http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vsphere.vcenterhost.doc_50/GUID-F52300EB-F43B-49F8-820E-298D75025DF3.html)

Cheers!

Congratulations sim! (and your husband)

I do the test tomorrow!

Very many thanks, sim)
Q1, Q2 - I agree.

Q3. A client wants to create a virtual machine with intense I/O traffic. Which type of disk should he choose? (choose 2):
A) Thick provisioned
B) Flat disk
C) Raw mapped device
D) Thin provisioned
My answer: A, C.

Q4. Which of the following allows the virtual disk of a VM to be migrated to another datastore? (choose 2):
a) Storage vMotion
b) vMotion
c) VMware Data Recovery
d) VM migrated in suspended state
Answer: a) and ? Any suggestions?

Hi,

I have just came back from the exam. I passed with 439 (and my husband who studied from the same dump passed with 417).

I have 6 new questions. I remember a few:
Q1. What kind of traffic can be priorized with Network I/O Control (choose 3):
a) virtual machine;
b) vmotion
c) fault tolerance
d) FCoE
e) hardware dependent iSCSI adapter
(I believe it is a, b, c)

Q2. Which of the following are only available with vCenter Server? (choose 3)
a) fault tolerance
b) thin provisioning
c) resource pool
d) update manager
e) vmotion
(I answered a, d, e)

Q3. A client wants to create a virtual machine with intense I/O traffic. Which type of disk should he choose? (choose 2):
A) thick provisioned
B) Flat disk
C) Raw mapped device
D) Thin provisioned

Q4. Which of the following allows the virtual disk of a VM to be migrated to another datastore? (choose 2):
a) storage vmotion
b) vmotion
c) VMware data recovery
d) VM migrated in suspended state

For the moment this is all I can remember. If I remember anything else I will come back :)

If Q4 is multi-choice right answer is:

When coordinating the VMware NMP and any installed third-party MPPs, the PSA performs the following tasks:
- Handles physical path discovery and removal.
- Implements logical device bandwidth sharing between virtual machines.

i.e. in qiuz:
1) Implements logical devices bandwidth sharing
4) Manage physical path claiming and unclaiming

to deibel, tellevery1

http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-50-storage-guide.pdf, page 158

When coordinating the VMware NMP and any installed third-party MPPs, the PSA performs the following tasks:
- Loads and unloads multipathing plug-ins.
- Hides virtual machine specifics from a particular plug-in.
- Routes I/O requests for a specific logical device to the MPP managing that device.
- Handles I/O queueing to the logical devices.
- Implements logical device bandwidth sharing between virtual machines.
- Handles I/O queueing to the physical storage HBAs.
- Handles physical path discovery and removal.
- Provides logical device and physical path I/O statistics

quiz
When coordinating the VM NMP and any installed 3-party MPP, what the PSA performs?
1) Implements logical devices bandwidth sharing
2) Process I/O request to logical devices
3) Associate physical path with logical devices
4) Manage physical path claiming and unclaiming

So, if this is single-choice quiz answer is
1) Implements logical devices bandwidth sharing (between virtual machines)

Thank God, completed the exam successfully. 8 new questions. Remaining all from this dump. This dump is a sure shot. Thanks Leonardo and others for there valuable efforts.

For Q3 the reference is this part of the vsphere 5 documentation:
"You can move the threshold slider to use one of five settings, ranging from Conservative to Aggressive. The five migration settings generate recommendations based on their assigned priority level. Each setting you move the slider to the right allows the inclusion of one more lower level of priority. The Conservative setting generates only priority-one recommendations (mandatory recommendations), the next level to the right generates priority-two recommendations and higher, and so on, down to the Aggressive level which generates priority-five recommendations and higher (that is, all recommendations.)"

Q1: OVF can be transported
Q2: 240 : (15 /64)*1024
Q3: no idea
Q4: 3 i think

other ideas?

Passed with score 471. Had at least 8 new questions. Remember 4 of them.
What does OVF format allows to be done to VMware template?
1) Upgrade
2) Transport
3) Converted
4) Automated

What IOPS should be used with Storage I/O controller to limited disk throughput to roughly 15MPS if the guest application write 64KB

1) 320
2) 240
3) 64
4) 150

A user wants to configure a DRS migration threshold that allow automated applied of all priority one & two remediation only. What is the setting?
1) Priority 2
2) Priority 1
3) The moderately Conservative setting
4) Default setting


When coordinating the VM NMP and any installed 3-party MIP, what the PSA performs?
1) Implements logical devices bandwidth sharing
2) Process I/O request to logical devices
3) Associate physical path with logical devices
4) Manage physical path claiming and unclaiming

Hi Leanardo,

When i download the file from the link it shows that it is version 1. Where can i get the version 4 file to download the VCE format. Can you please reply me soon since i am going to write the exam on 09-11-2011

The dump is pretty valid.

If you update this dump you need to be sure to note the changes you are making and why. This dump is pretty close to be spot on. Most questions have been discussed and researched by groups of people sharing inputs. Again, just note the changes and why.

This site takes 3 days to load a new dump to it. AGAIN if you dont want to wait post to here:
http://certcollection.org/forum/topic/143147-vcp-510-updated-dump-and-links/

This is the latest and greatest and is constantly updated.

Q10 Maybe you are right?

http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-11812

-This is the round-trip latency in storage stack.

The KAVG value should be very small in comparison to the DAVG value and should be close to zero. When there is a lot of queuing in ESX, KAVG can be as high, or even higher than DAVG. If this happens, please check the queue statistics, which will be discussed next.

Are you sure about question 10? I have a copy of the Performance Monitoring slides for V4. In the storage section it only talks about manitoring DAVG, GAVG, KAVG, and MBREAD. I don't see anything about CONs in the whole slide deck.

Just passed, 455!
Using v4 dumps is enough for a pass (though not great I imagine)
Few new questions, such as -

1) question on the definition of public and private clouds
2) using a stretched ha configuration, across 2 sites, what port needs to be allowed through the firewall.
3) another reservation question, not too hard!

Good luck all!

Hello Sim! Please indicate your experience when you do the exam and if they come new questions. I will do the exam on Tuesday!

Thank you!

Q75 Option B is still a valid option, verified on my ESXi5 host using esxcfg-vswitch -l

PLZ vsphereking
is that the latest dump that gets you ready for the exam , and iam taking my exam on 22nd of NOV , would this be valid till that day ??

I passed exam by V3.
My score is 411
Thanks Leonardo and everybody.

Q135: C D
In my lab is C and D,
An VMFS datastore can be delete.
But an NFS can not be delete, An NFS datastore can be unmount only,

So the Q135 is :
What are two consquences of deleteing (unmout) an NFS datastore from an ESXi hosts?

So rather sit around and keep you guys waiting. I would recommend heading over to this forum and getting the latest dump vce file. Sorry I dont do PDF's but if someone can update the PDF you can note the changes referenced in the VCE file. Thanks guys and I KNOW there are a few more questions that need to be addressed. lets run through them and get them ironed out.

http://certcollection.org/forum/topic/143147-vcp-510-updated-dump-and-links/

Updating dump now. I will have it uploaded to the forum noted below and here asap. give me some time.

We are really close to getting this dump pretty much ironed out. Again the FORUM post will not alot of what you guys are already talking about so just reference that and lets keep a running list of what needs to be updated. Worst case scenario I will get to it this weekend if leo or luc dont soon. :)

I have posted the link for 4.1 to this forum.
If we could get some help on updating the braindump (Leo or Luc) then that would be great. I also have all the noted in correct and correct answer on this forum post as well. Just waiting on updating the VCE file or unless someone else can do it.

http://certcollection.org/forum/topic/143147-vcp-510-updated-dump-and-links/

Q21: I have just found this blog entry: http://www.lavmug.org/2010/03/cannot-deploy-template-orphaned-template/. I understand that if a template is orphaned, the option "Deploy virtual machine from template" is greyed out, which means it is unavailable.

I also tried in my lab to rename the .vmtx file to .vtmxa and option still appears and it works fine. Even if you rename the file extensions, the virtual machine can be deployed from template.

So for this question the correct answers should be: B,C.

@SIM (Q14) you are absolutely right, I mentioned that in some earlier versions thread already, it got never corrected though

http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-4-esx-vcenter/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vsphere.dcadmin.doc_41/vsp_dc_admin_guide/managing_users_groups_roles_and_permissions/t_remove_a_role.html

C&D is correct

Q14: I believe that the correct answers should be B and D. I think that the question is wrong, should be VMwareAccepted as there is no VMwareSupported acceptance level. So, according to http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vsphere.install.doc_50/GUID-56600593-EC2E-4125-B1A0-065BDD16CF2D.html, if the image profile acceptance level is VMware Accepted then the only two levels that could be accepted are VMwareAccepted and VMware Certified. What do you think?

This is another question from real exam

What is the purpose of vStorage API's applied on VAAI?

The test taker cannot remember the answer listed.

Your comments appreciated.

Sim, actually that question is a 'choose 2' answer.forgot to mention that. So I ended up putting C & D. I'm not sure if C is right or not, but obviously D is one of the 2 correct answers. Hope that helps & Good luck!

Cooljeans, for the new question you provided, the correct answer is D, right?

Thanks a lot for your feedback! And congrats to all those that passed the exam today. I'm going on Monday and your experiences make me feel more confident :) 10x

passed with 433, thanks to Leonardo

One question I can recall that wasn't on any of the dumps was as follows [paraphrasing]:

When you delete a "Role" what happens to the users that were in it?

A. They are not affected, but you cannot add any new users to the deleted Role
B. They automatically get assigned to "read only" Role
C. They lose all privileges
D. They can be assigned to any other Role that exists

Q135 CD

Q43: http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vsphere.upgrade.doc_50/GUID-6A5C596D-103E-4024-9353-5569263EB427.html

I think with the given answers none is the perfect match but maybe the link gives you an idea how it should work.

to those who passed already.
Would be nice if you would contribute new questions to the others.

THis is the good one

Just got back from exam. **PASSED with a 422**. I solely used V4 of this VCE [by Lulzac]. Like someone else send there were about 5 questions that were not on any of these dumps. Many thanks to everyone who contributed!

Q150: The answer is correct. Not AB. Check the following.
-----
~ # service mgmt-vmware restart
-sh: service: not found
~ # /sbin/services.sh restart
Running vShield-Endpoint-Mux stop
watchdog-vShield-Endpoint-Mux: Terminating watchdog process with PID 3373
.
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&externalId=1005566

Q21: AC. For may understanding the question is just asking that when the "Deploy Virtual Machine form this template" option is unavailable? I had tested if you disconnect the ESXi host which the template resides, therefore the option is unavailable. If you connect to a ESXi host or use vSphere Web Client even the template is not there, so only AC is possible answer.

Q64: AB.
Q73: D. Please look at the explanation there, "from which you access the vSphere Web Client" That is the remote client that currently you are running, no need to connect to ESXi.
Q108: AC, Just read the explanation section again, it is right there.
Q112: BCE.
Q128: CDE. I have read the VMW_Netioc_BestPractices.pdf again and the B is a bad one because Limits enforces the dvUplink level not a VM. E is correct.
-----
Shares
A user can specify the relative importance of a given resource-pool flow using shares that are enforced at the dvUplink level. The underlying dvUplink bandwidth is then divided among resource-pool flows based on their relative shares in a work-conserving way. This means that unused capacity will be redistributed to other contending flows and won't go to waste. As shown in Figure 1, the network flow scheduler is the entity responsible for enforcing shares and therefore is in charge of the overall arbitration under overcommitment. Each resource-pool flow has its own dedicated software queue inside the scheduler so that packets from a given resource pool won't be dropped due to high utilization by other flows.
Limits
A user can specify an absolute shaping limit for a given resource-pool flow using a bandwidth capacity limiter. As opposed to shares that are enforced at the dvUplink level, limits are enforced on the overall vDS set of dvUplinks, which means that a flow of a given resource pool will never exceed a given limit for a vDS out of a given vSphere host.
-----

Ruffel - Why don't you upload your VCE file to megaupload or any other free site and provide the link here. Your VCE to appear here will take couple of days. Just a suggestion.
It looks like version 4.0 has helped many people to pass the exam today. I can't want to take the exam next week.
Luczac has released version 4.1 with more corrections. FYI.

These are not all my corrections, but I did use these answers on my exam.

I still think Q137 is B D E.
A added function in vSphere 5 is that you now can use Storage I/O control on NFS datastores. I know you can use only a single extent, but I cannot find anything about a VMFS extent related to SIOC.
http://www.vmware.com/resources/techresources/10207

Q137 is A, D, E

Ruffel, Are the answers bellow your correction as in what you went on the exam?

Hello Malteser, I did not used V4, but an older version. I compared the answers of the V4 file with my VCE, and this are the different answers I have:

14: B C
41: D
43: A
64: B D
73: D
78: B D
96: A B D
103: A B E
126: B D
134: This question has only 3 choices on the exam. I corrected this question.
137 B D E

Also I added 3 new questions.

I pass the exm today!!
I use ver 3 and v4 toghter!!
thanks Leonardo and everybody(for the VMWare.BrainDump.VCP-510.v2011-11-01.by.LeonardoBR.159q.vce )!!
my score is 383,about 10 quesions not in this dump!!

Errors seen in V4:
I don't have the manager, perhaps someone can correct the answeres.

Restart the Management Agents in ESXi ->
Either you use services.sh restart or you use DCUI and choose Restart Management Network - not Management Agents.

You cannot delete an NFS datastore, you can only Unmount!

You cannot upgrade the vCSA, you have to deploy a new one and copy configuration data, see http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vsphere.upgrade.doc_50/GUID-6A5C596D-103E-4024-9353-5569263EB427.html

resxtop doesn't exist

High Priority vMotions -> A+C would be correct regarding the text in the explanation

Configuring admission control -> according to the text in the explanation I would choose AB not BC

Host Isolation Response defailt -> The responses are:
Leave powered on (the default), Power off, and Shut down. You can customize this property for individual
virtual machines.
So when Network Isolation occures and cluster is on default settings, choose B not A

Features of a Distributed Switch: NetFlow, NIOC and INGRESS traffic shaping. Egress can be done by Standard and Distributed switch.

Rufflel, which dump did you use? was it the V4 from Leo

I passed today in the Netherlands with a score of 411. I used this VCE, in wich I corrected a few answers. I uploaded the VCE today, so it will show up here soon.
I got 5 questions i did not see in the dump. Nothing from conf. max. I remembered 3 questions wich I added to the VCE.

Q135 CD
Hi Malteser,

I think NFS is different from VMFS type, at VCP student manul page 230 it said for NFS data store delete is also means umount.so I choose c+d

q108 AC
q112 BCE

Smartwolf, How many questions you got from this dumps? How much you have scored?

Hi All, Just want everyone's feedback. Do you think Q135. What are two consequences of deleting an NFS datastore from an ESXi host? should actually be What are two consequences of deleting an VMFS datastore from an ESXi host? VMFS not NFS.

I pass the exm today!!
I use ver 3 and v4 toghter!!
thanks Leonardo and everybody(for the VMWare.BrainDump.VCP-510.v2011-11-01.by.LeonardoBR.159q.vce )!!

Can you let us know when this dump will be updated again?

Appreciate all the hardword you do. I like helping out it makes me study lol.

q - 150 is A and B
See:
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1004790


q 135 - is C and D. tested in my lab I think its proof enough. its talks abuot "ESXi" host not cluster. catchy words there.
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&externalId=1005566

q.125
This changed with vsphere 5 - check your lab for the default settings. its A and B i think with vsphere 5 - there isnt a graceful shutdown button. only shutdown and its link to graceful now.

q36 is B AND C - why the hell would just high restart be started on esxi host? no where does it say that - it says starting FIRST with high then so on and so on until well it can turn anymore on.

q72
Says nothing about Config Manager updating vCenter VSA - only way is option B. sorry man your gonna have to bite the bullet unless you can show some proof. VSA has some major limitations. sure you can update or patch the linux VM but that isnt and "Upgrade" it is a tricky question.
http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vcenter-configuration-manager-541-hardware-software-requirements-guide.pdf

q 103 mr. bob you are RIGHT
Jesus NFS is a filer. and YOU CANNOT install esxi to NFS. you can place a ANSWER FILE but you cannot RUN Esxi on it. You know why? because it installs VMFS is you use the installable. so again ABE -

please update the dump with correct answer and help everyone out.

Please post feedback on how well this dump worked for you. I would love to hear about it to see if it is valid. most answers I have corrected or researched it seems somewhat reliable.

Well, I posted answers to this same dump file at this forum thread:
I think we need another forum thread at this site to answer this altogether and get updates done correctly. Some of these are on the vcp-410 and the same exact questions. Find a good 410 dump and reference that as well if you want.

http://certcollection.org/forum/topic/142354-vmware-vcp-510-corrected/
starting like page 5 or 6 luc begins to update it.

cool this version 4 from megaupload.. question have explanation directly from vmware website :O

I think the answer for the question 87 might be C.

As the bottom of the picture said "All entities in the same group are started BEFORE PROCEEDING TO THE NEXT GROUP. Shutdown is done in reserve order", if the Dev_Web_01 mv is moved to Group 3, it will start after Dev_SQL_01 and Dev_App_01.

I am taking this test tomorrow morning uk time and will report back how I do.

I have taken (and failed) the test previously and can say there are few Qs not in the exam itself

V4 has 159 Q's like the other versions

Many people here and at other site are taking the test tomorrow. Hopefully they can give us an update how close version 4 dump is (159Q) and are there any min/max questions. I have rescheduled the test for 12th Nov.

Cooljeans - give us an update after you finish the test.

Cooljeans how many questions are there in V4?

Leonardo, could you please upload it on Megaupload so that we can check it in the meantime? I'm taking the exam on Monday and time is running out.

You'll be taking it tomorrow, right? Please send us feedback as soon as you can! And of course, I wish you have a great result. Good luck!

Hello all, I upload the version 4.0 yesterday after midnight, probably will be available today after midnight from Brazil.

Thanks for all.

Sorry, I wanted to say "that's why the correct answers are B and C".

You can also take a look at page 68 of this document: http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-50-storage-guide.pdf

It says:
"The VMkernel performs the following tasks.
a Locates the file, which corresponds to the guest virtual machine disk, in the VMFS volume.
b Maps the requests for the blocks on the virtual disk to blocks on the appropriate physical device.
c Sends the modified I/O request from the device driver in the VMkernel to the iSCSI initiator (hardware
or software)."

Sim, you are absolutely correct. Didn't even notice that it said ".performed by VMKernel". Good catch. Thanks. Q92 = B & C

cooljeans, if you look at the explanation for q92 you can see that those tasks are performed by the adapter. The question is asking which two tasks are performed by VMKernel, that's because the correct answers are B and C.

In that latest version (V4) that was from MegaUpload, I'm in the middle of going through it and Q 92 [hardware iSCSI initiator] is wrong even though the Explanation is correct. Should be A & D

But version 4 was not uploaded by Leonardo yet. It was uploaded by LUCZAC. I guess Leonardo will upload version 4 soon

Alex, I think the link was posted.

Malteser may u pls upload Version 4?

Q135 - I think this is C, not sure what the other answer would be.

AFAIK delete is for VMFS, and Unmount is for NFS. Delete destroys the data whilst unmount for nfs retains the data on the share.

I don't know if it would apply to the single host or all of them however.

VMgun, Q150 cannot be A. service mgmt vmware restart command
If you take another look at that KB that command it for ESX not ESXi

ESXi command is: /sbin/services.sh restart
Take a look at this http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2008/08/10/howto-esxi-and-ssh/

Q150 : BD
service command is no more available in ESXi, sure answers are BD. I tested in a lab.

Q125 I think is A + C , as the restart button does a graceful reboot but the power button does a hard shutdown (the shutdown guest button does it gracefully if I remember correctly?)

Q 150 Agree with John A, B

@ Jake
What is your passing score and is this dump valid?Your speedy response will be much appreciated.
Thanks

Q124 I think D is correct.
vsphere client connect the esxi host.configuration-->network-->VM network properties .The vlan ID is 0.

Sim Version 3 should be enough. Study every question and know them by heart.

Q150 is A+B

Jake, thank you so much for your feedback.

How many questions did you get in the exam? Did you only use this dump (v3)?

10x

Pass with this dump!! 7 questions that were not in here. You have to use some thinking. Should be enough for everyone.

Leonardo Q108 A + B are opposite to each other, they can't both be right. A + C sound right to me

Continue my analysis from previous post:

Q108: I disagree with Vmg. The question is asking specifically about High priority vMotion, option C is correct but related with Standard vMotion. Please check the full information about High and Standard vMotion in page 135 from vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-50-host-management-guide.pdf. I maintain the option A+B.

Q124: I disagree with Vmg. In my opinion this is a trick question. Analyze the question:

Which VLAN value permits virtual machine guest tagging in vSphere 5 environment?

Option A didn't tag nothing in vSphere environment, only permit to see traffic on any VLAN, and leave the VLAN intact, in other words, port 4095 see but not tag.

In my opinion the best answer is B, that value really tag the traffic. If in answer have 2 values that tag the traffic, for example 1 and 46, but no, have only one value that really tag the traffic.

Q137: I disagree with Vmg. See that option A is talking about VMFS extend, and Storage I/O Control didn't support multiple extends. I maintain options B+D+E.

Hello,

Q103: Agreed with Bob, I can't boot using NFS.

Q73: Agreed with Deibel and Vmg, I tested using my lab.

Q78: Agreed with Deibel, change to options B+D. I used my lab and try to disable HA in virtual machines and didn't work, I only can overwrite the default configuration of HA Cluster.

Q85: Agreed with Deibel and VMG, change to options A+B+E.

Q92: I believe that is a trick question. The question wants to know what task are performed by VMKernel. Option A+D when you use hardware iSCSI, the adapter performs tasks A+D, only using software iSCSI VMKernel will perform option A+B. From my screenshot, look task number 1 and 4, VMKernel performed task 1 and 4 or options B+C.

Q21: I Disagree with Vmg. This is not a trick question? If template is orphaned the template menu continue to work (I tested in my lab). See the questions is asking about TEMPLATE MENU, no error deploying template. I imagine a template not stored in proper format, an admin clone a machine, not create a template, the menu is not available in this case. I maintain option A+B.

Q36: I disagree with Vmg. Imagine this scenario, you have 3 VMs, one high priority and two medium. your host down. HA will have resources to power up two VMs, HA only will restart High priority VM? I don't think so. HA will restart VMs until have resources, priority is used only to determine what VM to power first. Please see Page 25 from vsphere-esxi- vcenter-server-50-availability-guide.pdf

Q72: I disagree with Vmg. In question you can see what type of upgrade was planned. If you want to update VMWare vCenter Appliance have an option to perform that in vCenter Configuration Manager. We know that vCenter appliance didn't support Update Manager but can update itself. Why I need to deploy a new appliance, reconfigure and restore information if I can upgrade using the update option vCenter Configuration Manager? I maintain option A. I inserted a screenshot from my lab.

Just to check i compared this file with the Jone 346 one, from Q1-154 there are about 60 Qs that have been reviewed on both files with different answers.Which vce file is more valid?

q103 = Surely option D cannot be correct - You cannot boot from an NFS/NAS Device. But, you could boot from USB, FCOE LUN or.via autodeploy using PXE. So: ABE is right?

Hi Leonardo,
Q26: If I get your explanation correct, answers abe would be correct

Q73: Connecting the Host device would be the ESXi Host, I guess it should be D?!

Q78: Assuming that host monitoring is disabled HA will not work, explaining why machines are not being restarted.

Q85: Why should multipathing might trigger non-VI workload?
I agree on B and E but C is recommended bei VM Ware, so I doubt that its a valid answer.

Q92 is still invalid. Please have a look at your screenshot:
The topic 5a und 5b clearly states that the answers A+D are correct.

Regards!

I do not agree with some answers. My version is below:
Q21 BC
Q36 AB
Q72 B
Q73 D
Q85 ABE
Q108 AC
Q124 A
Q137 ADE

OK Bob, thanks for reply, in Q64 what is more accurate option in your opinion? option C?

I'm not sure about option D too, but the other alternatives are not 100%.

About Q58, I tested in real production environment all options, and only have same question picture when Vmotion are disabled, when vm have connection to vswitch but not have access to same datastore.
When vm have access to same datastore but don't have access to vswitches I can proceed with vmotion but with warning. I need to chose a new vswitch where vm will be connect.

Thanks

I think the answer to Q64 is wrong. Why would changing the DRS setting to agressive help? Even at its most conservative setting, setting one, as long as it is fully automated it will always move machines onto different hosts when the host goes into maintenance mode. Aggressiveness beyond level one is purely a load balancing feature - Level One DRS only moves machines if a host goes into mainenance mode or if affinity rules are violated. Levels 2,3,4,5 ALL include the previous levels (including level one).

However, disabling Admission control MAY help (and this is reccomended by vmware when using VUM against a cluster), because it allows us to place multiple hosts into maintenance mode that may otherwise have been dissalowed by HA.

Q58? It looks to me from the map as if the VM is not connected to either the Production Network OR the datastore. IT also says vmotion disabled - would this not be caused by not having the vmkernel port enabled for vmotion?

This is mis quoted, in the exam ES3G is just ESX.

Pradeep: Cus AMD does not support HT. So it can only present the real cores. Intel supports HT, ergo it can present doubble the amount of "cores" it has. But you can normally only gain a 30% win in CPU power from the extra cores.

eg:
2x AMD dual core = total 4 cores
2x Intel dual core (with high likelihood of HT enabled) = (4 cores) + (4 HT cores) = 8 cores

The answer given for this question is "C" The ES3G host has two AMD dual core processor,
can anybody axplain what is ES3G and how did you come to know that its a AMD host?

An administrator is creating a virtual machine that will be running "windows 2008 enterprise(64bit). The application to installed in the virtua machine requires eight vCpus to run effectively.during installation, the only available option are one, two, three or four vcpus,what condition explains the available vcpu selections?

How can you presume that its a AMD processor and what is ES3G?
