Question 39

Refer to the exhibit.

An administrator created the Playbook shown in the exhibit to allow for manual reduction of vCPU count on any selected VM within their environment. During a test run of the play on one of the VMs running in development, the administrator ran into an error that the Playbook cannot be completed against the selected VM.

Here are the details of the affected VM:

VM Name: VM2 -

vCPU: 4

RAM: 8 GB -

OS: Windows 2016 -

Hypervisor: AHV -

What caused this Playbook to fail?

This play cannot be executed against a VM on AHV.

The VM needs to be powered off before vCPU can be reduced.

Reduction of vCPU cannot be done on a VM with a running snapshot.

The play will cause the VM to go below the minimum vCPU.

Correct Answer: B

The playbook to reduce vCPU must be executed when the VM is powered off. The error occurred because the VM was running, and vCPU reduction operations typically require the VM to be in a powered-off state to ensure data integrity and proper configuration changes.
