A vSphere administrator has a 4 host DRS cluster with plans to grow to 8 hosts. During a vMotion migration, the following error is displayed:
-- Exhibit —
-- Exhibit —
What action could be taken to resolve the issue?
A. Ensure all hosts in the cluster contain only Intel or AMD CPUs
B. Choose Reset all to Default in the CPU Identification Mask of the VM
C. Verify and correct the vmkernel port settings for the vMotion network
D. Configure the DRS Migration Threshold to the most conservative setting
Correct Answer: B
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
B: The exhibit shows an error message that indicates an incompatible CPU which means that you should ensure that the host CPU and the target host to which migration is performed have the same bit extensions. This can be done by resetting the CPU Identification Mask of the VM to the default settings.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Though the error message indicates a CPU issue, it is not a matter of all the hosts in the cluster
C: The vmkernel port settings do not generate an error messages regarding incompatible CPU.
D: DRS affects the spare capacity on a server or cluster of servers and the exhibit shows a CPU issue instead.
