Question

Which vSphere 6.x storage service provides array-based operations at the virtual disk level?

Options

ALocal storage
BVirtual Volumes
CVirtual SAN
DDatastores

Explanation

Virtual Volumes (VVols) expose array-based storage operations - such as snapshots and clones - directly at the individual virtual disk level rather than at the datastore level.

Common mistakes.

A. Local storage is directly attached to a single ESXi host and does not support array-based operations or integration with external storage array services.
C. Virtual SAN (vSAN) is a software-defined, hypervisor-converged storage solution that aggregates local disks; it does not provide array-based operations sourced from an external storage array.
D. Datastores (VMFS or NFS) are logical containers for storing VM files and do not themselves expose or perform array-based operations at the virtual disk level.
