Question 102

Refer to the exhibit.

An administrator is tasked with adding new capacity to an existing software-defined data center (SDDC).

• The SDDC currently hosts two vSphere clusters (ClusterA and ClusterB) with different CPU compatibilities.

• vSphere vMotion and vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) are currently in use in the SDDC.

• The new capacity will be implemented by provisioning four ESXi hosts running a new generation of Intel Skylake CPUs.

• All workload virtual machines (VMs) must support live migration to any cluster in the SDDC.

The administrator noticed the running critical "evc1" virtual machine (VM) shown in the exhibit is not migrating using vSphere vMotion to the original Clusters A or B.

Which three steps must the administrator take to support this functionality? (Choose three.)

    Correct Answer: A, B, E

    To support live migration across clusters with different CPU compatibility using vSphere vMotion for the 'evc1' VM, the administrator must ensure that EVC (Enhanced vMotion Compatibility) is properly configured at both the cluster and VM level. First, disabling EVC on the VM (A) might be necessary if it is already enabled at an incompatible level. Rebooting the VM (B) could help apply any changes made to its configuration. Additionally, configuring EVC on both Cluster A and Cluster B to support Intel Skylake CPUs (E) ensures compatibility with the new ESXi hosts.

Looking exhibit the VM is already Powered Off so B and F are not correct also EVC are already Enabled so C are not correct so probably correct answers are A D E

I agree, this question is confusing. Still not sure what to choose. After reading https://blogs.vmware.com/PowerCLI/2018/05/configuring-per-vm-evc.html I believe the EVC needs to be configured at the VM level so that the EVC configuration migrates with the VM to the other clusters, however, the screenshot is saying it's already enabled, and powered off, not on.

I don't understand why E is correct, the question didn't mention that the ECS is enabled on the cluster ?!!

Thats why you need to enable it otherwise the cluster feature wont be active

I think provided answer is correct

I want to add that this is a weird question. The vm is powered off in the screenshot but the tekst says it is on.

Powered off shows machine state so its enabled on VM - have to disable (a) Cluster has different cpus before. Has to be configured for new Skylakes(e) And of course - power on VM after that (d)
