You have three Hyper-V hosts that each have 20 processor cores and 64 GB of RAM. Nine virtual machines are deployed to the hosts as shown in the following table.
Host1 is located in New York, Host2 is located in Los Angeles, and Host3 is located in Denver. None of the virtual machines use dynamic memory.
You plan to deploy a two-node Exchange Server 2016 database availability group (DAG) by using the virtual machines. Each node will have 12 processor cores and 24 GB of memory.
You are evaluating whether you can use the existing servers for the deployment or whether you must purchase additional servers.
You need to recommend where to place the Exchange servers. The solution must minimize costs.
What is the best recommendation to achieve the goal? More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.
A. One Exchange server on Host1 and one Exchange server on a new Hyper-V host.
B. One Exchange server on Host1 and one Exchange server on Host3.
C. Both Exchange servers on Host1.
D. One Exchange server on Host1 and one Exchange server on Host2.
E. One Exchange server on Host2 and one Exchange server on Host3.
Host 1 uses 20 out of 64 GB
Host 2 uses 48 out of 64 GB
Host 3 uses 44 out of 64 GB
You need 24 GB for each VM.
Only host 1 has the resources for it.
It is not recommended to put both VM’s on one host.
So, the answer should be: A.
