2V0-21.23 Question #18: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is A. Ensure that the source and destination vCenter instances share the same Key Management C. Ensure that the VM is encrypted before attempting the migration.. To successfully migrate a virtual machine (VM) to an environment requiring encryption, the VM must first be encrypted, and both source and destination vCenter instances must share the same Key Management Server (KMS).

Administrative and Operational Tasks

Question

An administrator is tasked with migrating a single virtual machine (VM) from an existing VMware vCenter to a secure environment where corporate security policy requires that all VMs be encrypted. The secure environment consists of a dedicated vCenter instance with a 4-node vSphere cluster and already contains a number of encrypted VMs. Which two steps must the administrator take to ensure the migration is a success? (Choose two.)

Options

  • AEnsure that the source and destination vCenter instances share the same Key Management
  • BEnsure that Encrypted vMotion is turned off for the VM.
  • CEnsure that the VM is encrypted before attempting the migration.
  • DEnsure that the VM is powered off before attempting the migration.
  • EEnsure that the source and destination vCenter Servers have a different Key Management Server

Explanation

To successfully migrate a virtual machine (VM) to an environment requiring encryption, the VM must first be encrypted, and both source and destination vCenter instances must share the same Key Management Server (KMS).

Common mistakes.

  • B. Encrypted vMotion should generally be enabled for encrypted VMs to maintain data confidentiality during live migration, not turned off.
  • D. vSphere supports live migration (vMotion) of encrypted virtual machines, meaning the VM does not need to be powered off for the migration to occur.
  • E. Having different Key Management Servers would prevent the destination vCenter from accessing the encryption keys used by the source, making the migrated VM unusable.
