Question

A cloud administrator reports a problem with the maximum number of users reached in one of the pools. There are ten VMs in the pool, each with a software capacity to handle ten users. Based on the dashboard metrics, 15% of the incoming new service requests are failing. Which of the following is the BEST approach to resolve the issue?

Options

  • ACheck compute, storage, and networking utilization in the dashboard and increase capacity by
  • BCheck current licensed capacity and purchase additional licenses to add more users.
  • CCheck the DHCP scope and increase the number of available IP addresses by extending the
  • DCheck the rate-of-load increase to determine if the cloud capacity boundary has been exceeded

Why each option

When a VM pool reaches maximum user capacity and service requests are failing, the best first step is to evaluate actual resource utilization across compute, storage, and networking before increasing capacity.

ACheck compute, storage, and networking utilization in the dashboard and increase capacity byCorrect

Checking compute, storage, and networking utilization in the dashboard provides a holistic view of exactly where the bottleneck exists before taking remediation action. If utilization confirms that physical resource limits have been reached across the pool's 10 VMs, adding capacity will resolve the constraint and stop the 15% failure rate of incoming service requests.

BCheck current licensed capacity and purchase additional licenses to add more users.

Purchasing additional software licenses addresses software-seat limits, but the scenario already specifies the pool's maximum user count is the constraint, not a licensing restriction.

CCheck the DHCP scope and increase the number of available IP addresses by extending the

DHCP scope exhaustion causes IP address assignment failures, not service request failures tied to a maximum user pool count, making this an incorrect diagnostic path.

DCheck the rate-of-load increase to determine if the cloud capacity boundary has been exceeded

Checking the rate-of-load increase is a monitoring action that identifies a trend but does not resolve the immediate problem of failing service requests caused by the pool being at capacity.
