An administrator is migrating 135 virtual machines from a vSphere Standard Switch to a vSphere Distributed switch. The migration reports an error and only some of the virtual machines are transferred.
What is causing the error to occur?
A. The vSphere Distributed Switch was created with a single, default port group.
B. The switch has become disconnected from an ESXi host.
C. The port group on the vSphere Distributed Switch was not configured with an Elastic port binding.
D. The virtual machine that failed to transfer did not have a network adapter.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
A default dv Port Group offers up to 128 statically bound virtual ports. It will, therefore, only allow 128 virtual machines to be transferred to the default port group.
Incorrect Answers:
B: Since the ESXi host is added to the switch, it cannot become disconnected – it has to be removed.
C: Elastic is a port allocation option, not a port binding option.
D: Virtual machines can be migrated without a network adapter. These VMs will then only be able to communicate with other VMs, but have no internet connectivity.
