Exam 2: Virtual Hardware

The legal department of your organization has requested that you audit the licenses you are using for the operating system your organization uses. As you start analyzing the on-premises cloud systems, you need to ensure that you have the correct number of licenses. Which of the following should you ensure to count on the machine?

Fictional Corp has just finished migrating a number of servers from an on-premises data center to a cloud service provider. However, users are now complaining that they are running much slower than before. Which of the following would NOT be a contributing factor as to why they seem slower?

Brian has built a private cloud in his company's data center. He has just racked up a server and turns it on for the first time. Which of the following extensions might he see that he should ensure are enabled in the UEFI/BIOS setup before continuing to install the operating system and configure the server to be part of the private cloud? (Choose two)

Darla has changed the hostname of a Linux virtual machine within the operating system. She went to ping the server by the new name from her workstation, but is getting a host not found error message. Which of the following does she still need to configure?

Fictional Corp wants to start migrating a bunch of internal applications to a CSP. However, they are located in a rural area and their only connection option is a T1. However, they know that the move would save them money in electrical expenses and reduce the maintenance burden from having to monitor and control the various firewalls and other related equipment. Which of the following is most likely going to be the biggest hurdle for them?

Wayne has received reports from users that several web applications are running very slowly at times. He is analyzing the virtual machine they reside on and sees that it is maxing out its resources on a regular basis. Which of the following cloud features should he configure so that more resources would be available on demand?

Chris has learned about a technique that he can configure on some of his virtualized systems to help with memory allocation. Using this specific technique, a driver gets installed on each of the virtual machines on a host. That driver allows the host to control a fake process on the virtual machine so that the VM assigns memory to that process. Rather than actually do something with the memory that has been allocated to the process, the host can then assign that memory to another virtual machine so that it can use the memory instead. Which of the following is the best description of the memory reclamation process that Chris is considering using?

Fictional Corp's primary data center is located in Silicon Valley not far from the San Andreas fault line. Over the past couple of years, earthquakes have been getting more and more frequent and of a higher intensity. As a precaution, the company has decided to use a CSPto geographically disperse the infrastructure. They are currently using multiple hosts that contain between 2 and 20 virtual machines each within their data center. Which of the following types of migration would this be considered?

John has just created a new virtual machine on its own virtual network. After configuring the operating system and ensuring the appropriate services are running, he tries and fails to connect to the virtual machine's IP address via RDP. Which of the following might be the reason?

Fictional Corp has built a private cloud in their data center. That data center is in a region of the country that is prone to earthquakes. They want to ensure that the company can continue to operate in the event that a major earthquake hits and knocks out the power and Internet services. Which of the following strategies should they implement?

Fictional Corp has multiple monitoring systems in place to report various events that occur as soon as they happen. However, they have also tried to design the infrastructure so that it can withstand and compensate for these failures and outages and allow the system to still function so that the users do not notice the failure. Which of the following terms could be used to describe the theory they used when designing their infrastructure?
