Refer to the exhibit.
An administrator set up the following configuration:
The distributed switch has three ESXi hosts, and each host has two 40 Gbps NICs.
The amount of bandwidth reserved for virtual machine (VM) traffic is 6 Gbps.
The administrator wants to guarantee that VMs in the Finance distributed port group can access 50 percent of the available reserved bandwidth for VM traffic.
Given this scenario, what should the size (in Gbps) of the Finance network resource pool be?
The distributed switch has three ESXi hosts, and each host has two NICs with a total bandwidth reservation for VM traffic of 6 Gbps. To find the total reserved bandwidth, you calculate 6 Gbps times the 6 NICs (2 NICs per each of the 3 ESXi hosts), which gives 36 Gbps. Since the VMs in the Finance distributed port group need to access 50% of this reserved bandwidth, the correct size of the Finance network resource pool should be 50% of 36 Gbps, which is 18 Gbps.
It says 50% of the reserved bandwidth. Total reserved bandwidth is 6Gbps x 6 physical NICs = 36Gbps and 50% of that is 18Gbps. Thus my vote goes to option A
I answered A on the test, passed with 428.
To guarantee that VMs in the Finance distributed port group can access 50 percent of the available reserved bandwidth for VM traffic, the size of the Finance network resource pool should be 50 percent of the reserved bandwidth for VM traffic, which is 6 Gbps x 3 hosts = 18 Gbps Therefore, the correct answer is: A. 18 The Finance network resource pool should be sized at 18 Gbps to ensure that VMs in the Finance distributed port group can access 50 percent of the available reserved bandwidth for VM traffic
I just complete my exam with a fail result, the question is different with this, as far i remember, 4GB reserved, 10GBPS perNic, not sure what is the correct answer
The Question was: An administrator set up the following configuration: The distributed switch has four ESXi hosts, and each host has two 10 Gbps NICs. In the Network I/O Control configuration, the amount of bandwidth reserved for virtual machine (VM) traffic is 4 Gbps. The administrator wants to guarantee that VMs in the Retail distributed port group can access 50 percent of the available reserved bandwidth for VM traffic. You have 4 ESXis. Each has ESXi has 2 vmnics. Each nic has 10G.
you can choose the following answers: 1)32 2)8 3)40 4)16
what is the right answer? and how to calculate it?
Not 100 percent sure, but I suspect as "Homefree" wrote. It says 50% of the reserved bandwidth. Total reserved bandwidth is 4Gbps x 8 physical NICs = 32Gbps and 50% of that is 16Gbps.
To guarantee that VMs in the Retail distributed port group can access 50 percent of the available reserved bandwidth for VM traffic, the administrator should create a network resource pool for the Retail distributed port group and allocate 50 percent of the reserved bandwidth for VM traffic to it. Given that there are four ESXi hosts, each with two 10 Gbps NICs, the total available bandwidth is 80 Gbps (4 hosts x 2 NICs per host x 10 Gbps per NIC). The amount of bandwidth reserved for VM traffic is 4 Gbps. To allocate 50 percent of the reserved bandwidth for VM traffic to the Retail distributed port group, the administrator should create a network resource pool for the Retail distributed port group with a size of 2 Gbps (50 percent of 4 Gbps) and associate it with the distributed switch. Therefore, the correct answer is: 8 The size of the Retail network resource pool should be 8 Gbps to guarantee that VMs in the Retail distributed port group can access 50 percent of the available reserved bandwidth for VM traffic
So one answer is wrong. The way it was calculated is different from yours. If I take Homefree example, the answer should be 16Gbps.
Yes. in this example it would be 16GB. In the parent question of this dicussipn, it's 18.
I think the answer is 36, reason is its asking what is the size of the pool, not 50% Given this scenario, what should the size (in Gbps) of the Finance network resource pool be?
Normally its 36 but it says 50% --> also 18
this make it pretty clear https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.networking.doc/GUID-8E957535-7969-4E12-BD11-DF746D6D5379.html for the question (current reserved vm traffic = 6Gbps for network resource pool ((6 nics x reversed vm traffic 6Gbps) * 50% = 18Gbps reserved bandwidth for finance group vm traffic)
seems so
Ans: A The Questions "what should the size (in Gbps) of the Finance network resource pool be" It should be 18Gbps which is the 50% of total bandwidth reserve with 36Gbps https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/8.0/vsphere-networking/GUID-29A96AB2-AEBF-420E-BDD6-48921CD687FF.html
Amount of bandwidth reserved for virtual machine (VM) traffic is 6 Gbps, multiply by 6 Physical NICs on the D-Switch = 36 Gbps Resource Pool
Then 36Gbps *50% = 18 Gbps A.
