What will be the result of selecting the highlighted device?
A. Datastore will grow up to 200.01GB using the remaining free space on the device.
B. Datastore will add 200.01GB by adding the device as a second extent.
C. The device size can be expanded to be larger than 200.01 GB in size.
D. The device is not suitable for this operation.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
When you need to create new virtual machines on a datastore, or when the virtual machines running on this datastore require more space, you can dynamically increase the capacity of a VMFS datastore.(200 GB) Use one of the following methods:
-Add a new extent. An extent is a partition on a storage device, or LUN. You can add up to 32 new extents of the same storage type to an existing VMFS datastore.
The spanned VMFS datastore can use any of all its extents at any time. It does not need to fill up a particular extent before using the next one.
-Grow an extent in an existing VMFS datastore, so that it fills the available adjacent capacity. Only extents with free space immediately after them are expandable.
