Which two statements are true about the share value for a virtual machine after it has been added to a resource pool? (Choose two.)
A. If a previously defined custom share value exists, the totals shares in the pool should be evaluated to maintain the expected performance.
B. If a previously defined custom share value exists, the %Shares value will automatically be adjusted relative to the total number of shares in the pool.
C. If a previously defined share level (high, medium, low) exists, the %Shares value is changed to Custom and the previous value is retained.
D. If there are no other objects in the pool the share value is irrelevant.
Correct Answer: BD
Explanation/Reference:
When you move a virtual machine to a new resource pool:
The virtual machine’s reservation and limit do not change.
If the virtual machine’s shares are high, medium, or low, %Shares adjusts to reflect the total number of shares in use in the new resource pool.
If the virtual machine has custom shares assigned, the share value is maintained.
