Question
An administrator has determined that storage performance to a group of virtual machines is reduced during peak activity. The virtual machines are located in a VMFS datastore called Production1 on an active-active storage array. The ESXi 5.x host running the virtual machines is configured with an MRU multipathing policy. Which two actions can be taken to improve the storage performance of these virtual machines? (Choose two.)
Options
- AAdd virtual storage, create a VMFS datastore called Production2 on the new storage, and then
- BChange the storage multipathing policy to Round Robin.
- CAdd physical storage, create a VMFS datastore called Production2 on the new storage, and then
- DChange the storage multipathing policy to Fixed with default settings.

Explanation
Round Robin (VMware) The host uses an automatic path selection algorithm rotating through all available paths. This implements load balancing across all the available physical paths. Load balancing is the process of spreading server I/O requests across all available host paths. The goal is to optimize performance in terms of throughput (I/O per second, megabytes per second, or response times).
