The correct answer is A. VMkernel network adapters on the vDS are in use. B. Virtual machine network adapters are connected to the vDS.. Removing a host from a vDS fails when resources on that switch are still actively bound - specifically VMkernel adapters and VM vNICs must be removed or migrated first.

Question

When attempting to remove a host from a vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS), an administrator observes the error message: The resource '16' is in use What are two reasons why this error would be displayed? (Choose two.)

Options

  • AVMkernel network adapters on the vDS are in use.
  • BVirtual machine network adapters are connected to the vDS.
  • CNetwork I/O Control has been configured on the vDS.
  • DThere is active network traffic on the vDS.

Explanation

Removing a host from a vDS fails when resources on that switch are still actively bound - specifically VMkernel adapters and VM vNICs must be removed or migrated first.

Common mistakes.

  • C. Network I/O Control is a traffic-shaping policy configured on the vDS itself, not a host-bound resource, and its presence does not prevent a host from being removed.
  • D. Active traffic flowing through the vDS is a consequence of adapters being connected, not an independent resource lock - ESXi tracks adapter attachment, not packet flow, when evaluating whether a resource is in use.
