What is the maximum number of unmanaged machines that can be onboarded hourly using a single vRealize Automation Onboarding Plan?

Question

Options

• A1,000
• B3,000
• C3,500
• D17,000

• B
  3% (1)
• C
  94% (29)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

vRealize Automation's Onboarding Plan has a documented hourly limit of 3,500 unmanaged machines per single plan, making option C correct - this is a hard platform constraint tied to how the onboarding service processes discovery and import batches. Option A (1,000) and B (3,000) are plausible but both fall short of the actual limit, likely included as distractors because they feel like reasonable round-number thresholds. Option D (17,000) far exceeds what a single plan can handle hourly and would require multiple plans or staggered onboarding windows to approach that scale.

Memory tip: Think "3,500 = 3.5K per hour, per plan" - the ".5" is the unusual part that distinguishes it from the round-number distractors (1K and 3K), so anchor on the fact that VMware chose an odd threshold, not a clean one.
