2V0-622D Question #38: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is B: Remove sub-profile. VMware Host Profiles allow administrators to capture and apply a host configuration, and individual sub-profiles (such as storage) can be removed from the profile to exclude those specific settings when the profile is applied to target hosts.
Question
An administrator wants to clone the configuration of an existing ESXi 6.x host to a new group of hosts, but does not want to clone storage specific settings. Which action would accomplish this?
Options
- AUncheck sub-profile
- BRemove sub-profile
- CRevert profile
- DDisable VM Storage Profile
Explanation
VMware Host Profiles allow administrators to capture and apply a host configuration, and individual sub-profiles (such as storage) can be removed from the profile to exclude those specific settings when the profile is applied to target hosts.
Common mistakes.
- A. Unchecking a sub-profile disables its compliance checking but does not remove the settings from being applied during host profile remediation, so storage settings could still be enforced.
- C. Reverting a profile restores the profile to a previously saved state, which does not selectively exclude storage sub-profiles from cloning.
- D. VM Storage Profiles (now Storage Policies) govern VM placement based on datastore capabilities and are unrelated to the host configuration cloning process within Host Profiles.
Concept tested. VMware Host Profiles sub-profile removal to exclude settings
