An administrator using vCenter Operations Manager is viewing the health of an ESXi host in the environment. There have NOT been any reported outages or issues with the ESXi host, but the administrator needs to determine if the host is behaving normally.
Which minor badge should the administrator investigate to determine this information?
A. Faults
B. Anomalies
C. Stress
D. Health
Correct Answer: B
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
B: The Anomalies score represents how abnormal the behavior of the object is, based on its historical metrics data. In other words: The Anomalies badge indicates how the object is behaving currently compared to how it has behaved in the past. Which is why the administrator should use the anomalies badge to see if the host is behaving like normal or not.
Incorrect Answers:
A: The Faults badge tells you if configuration issues have occurred for an object. Faults are given priority over anomalies and workload when calculating health. Faults are calculated based on the events received from VMware vCenter about an object.
C: The Stress Badge refers to the stress level that an object is under and is indicative of the Risk Minor badge.
D: The health rating gives you an overview of the current operational state of an inventory object. The Health badge answers the question "How is my system doing right now?" Health identifies the current problems in the system or issues that need to be resolved immediately to avoid problems.
