After a recent unexplained peak in virtual machine (VM) CPU usage, an administrator is asked to monitor the VM performance for a recurrence of the issue.
Which two tools can the administrator use? (Choose two.)

To monitor the VM performance, the administrator can use vSphere Performance Charts and ESXi Shell. The vSphere Performance Charts provide graphical tools to track VM performance metrics over time, making it a fitting choice for monitoring CPU usage peaks. The ESXi Shell allows access to the esxtop command, which is a powerful utility for real-time performance monitoring of VMs on an ESXi host.
CE: performance charts is obvious. although it doesn't say real time, I would go with esxtop in the shell
I answered C & E on the test, passed with 428.
From the vCenter Management Interface, you could monitor the performance of the vCenter itself, not the other VMs.
don't forget esxitop
C is obvious, E is using esxtop and you can only run this command on shell https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.monitoring.doc/GUID-D89E8267-C74A-496F-B58E-19672CAB5A53.html
Performance charts & resxtop and esxtop you can start esxtop only through the ESXi Shell of a local ESXi host https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/8.0/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-801-monitoring-performance-guide.pdf
The correct answers are A and C. The vCenter Management Interface and vSphere Performance Charts are both tools that can be used to monitor VM performance. The vCenter Management Interface is a web-based interface that provides a centralized view of all VMs in a vSphere environment. The vSphere Performance Charts are a set of graphical tools that can be used to track VM performance over time. The Direct Console User Interface (DCUI), vCenter Command Line Interface, and ESXi Shell are all tools that can be used to manage VMs, but they are not specifically designed for monitoring VM performance.
vCenter Management Interface implies https:// appliance-IP-address-or-FQDN :5480 So not A
