2V0-620 Question #187: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is A: A virtual machine question is currently being posed to the administrator.. A VM power-on task hanging at 95% is most commonly caused by a pending VM question awaiting administrator input, a conflicting in-progress task, or HA admission control blocking the operation due to insufficient failover resources.

Question
An administrator is attempting to power on a virtual machine, but the task is hanging at 95%. What three scenarios best explain why this problem is happening? (Choose three.)
Options
- AA virtual machine question is currently being posed to the administrator.
- BAnother task for the virtual machine or other component is already in progress.
- CThe VMware High Availability cluster has insufficient resources to guarantee failover.
- DThe host has lost access to the storage device containing the virtual machine files.
- EThe host is under resource contention and unable to power on the virtual machine.
Explanation
A VM power-on task hanging at 95% is most commonly caused by a pending VM question awaiting administrator input, a conflicting in-progress task, or HA admission control blocking the operation due to insufficient failover resources.
Common mistakes.
- D. Loss of storage access would cause the power-on task to fail outright with a storage-related error rather than hanging at 95%, because the VM files would be inaccessible from the start.
- E. Resource contention causes scheduling delays or performance degradation but does not produce a task hang at a specific percentage; the task would either queue, fail with an insufficient resources error, or eventually complete.
