2V0-620 · Question #65
vMotion can be performed between which three physical boundaries? (Choose three.)
The correct answer is A. Between two vCenter Server Systems B. Between two vSphere Distributed Virtual Switches C. Between two vCenter Server Datacenter objects. vMotion supports live VM migration across vCenter Server systems, Datacenter objects, and Distributed Virtual Switches, enabling flexible cross-boundary workload mobility.

Why each option
vMotion supports live VM migration across vCenter Server systems, Datacenter objects, and Distributed Virtual Switches, enabling flexible cross-boundary workload mobility.
Enhanced vMotion allows live VM migration between two separate vCenter Server systems without downtime, using a shared or routed network path between the environments.
vMotion can operate across vSphere Distributed Virtual Switches because distributed switches provide consistent port group and VLAN configurations required to maintain network continuity during migration.
vMotion is supported between vCenter Server Datacenter objects, allowing VMs to move across administrative organizational boundaries within the same or cross-vCenter topology.
NSX Layer 4 segments define network segmentation policy but are not a recognized physical or logical boundary category for vMotion compatibility; vMotion constraints are determined by CPU, network, and storage compatibility.
Moving a VM between two NFS datastores describes a Storage vMotion (svMotion) operation, not a standard compute vMotion, which migrates running VM state between hosts regardless of datastore type.
