2V0-621 Question #199: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is B: 2. Only 2 VM-level overrides are needed because setting the cluster default restart priority to High covers Prod-DB and Prod-Email, leaving only Prod-VC and Dev-VDI requiring individual overrides.

Question

A vSphere 6 High Availability cluster has been configured with default settings. Four virtual machines in the cluster have been configured with these priorities: Prod-DB. High Prod-Email: High Prod-VC. Medium Dev-VDI: Low How many VM Overrides would need to be defined at the cluster level to meet the restart priorities?

Options

Explanation

Only 2 VM-level overrides are needed because setting the cluster default restart priority to High covers Prod-DB and Prod-Email, leaving only Prod-VC and Dev-VDI requiring individual overrides.

Common mistakes.

A. 1 override is insufficient because even with an optimal cluster default, at least 2 VMs (Prod-VC and Dev-VDI) must be individually overridden to reflect their non-default priorities.
C. 3 overrides would only be necessary if the cluster default remains at Medium, requiring separate overrides for Prod-DB, Prod-Email, and Dev-VDI.
D. 4 overrides are unnecessary since the cluster-level default priority can absorb at least one priority group, eliminating the need to override every VM individually.
