Question 5 of 243

An object has inherited permissions from two parent objects.

What is true about the permissions on the object?

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

If an object inherits permissions from two parent objects, the permissions on one object are added to the permissions on the other object. For example, if a virtual machine is in a virtual machine folder and also belongs to a resource pool, that virtual machine inherits all permission settings from both the virtual machine folder and the resource pool.
