-- Exhibit —
The vCenter Operations Manager dashboard is showing Health issues associated with the selected virtual machine. There have been no availability or configuration issues with the virtual machine, and the workload badge is still green.
How should an administrator resolve this issue?
A. Select the Anomalies badge to identify the cause of the abnormal behavior, then take appropriate action.
B. Select the Stress badge to identify the cause of the increased stress, then take appropriate action.
C. Select the Risk badge, identify the host at risk, and migrate the VM to a host with more resources.
D. Select the Risk badge to identify how much time is remaining before CPU resources are gone, then assign more resources.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
A: The Anomalies badge indicates how the object is behaving currently compared to how it has behaved in the past. While small anomalies don’t always indicate something bad, large anomalies are likely an indicator of a problem. vC Ops uses anomalies to determine what is "normal" in the your vSphere infrastructure vs what is "abnormal".
Workload, Anomalies and Faults are all Health Minor badges. Since it is mentioned that the Workload badge is still green it can be assumed that the Anomalies badge is indicating that the object is not behaving consistently as it did in the past. Thus you will need to determine the cause of the inconsistent behavior and then take action accordingly.
Incorrect Answers:
B: The Stress Badge refers to the stress level that an object is under and is indicative of the Risk Minor badge. This is a health issue that needs to be addressed.
C: The Risk badge is not associated with issues regarding Health badge. The health indicators are Workload, Anomalies and Faults that has to be checked out.
D: The Risk badge with the Time Remaining indicator is not what the issue is in this case as the exhibit clearly shows that it is a Health badge issue.
