   A small company runs a single Windows Server 2019 host that hosts several VMs for development and testing. The IT admin needs to run a lightweight Linux VM for a temporary project and wants to minimize overhead and management complexity. The admin is comfortable with command-line tools. Which approach best meets the requirement?

   • ARun the Linux VM in a container using Docker Desktop on Windows.
   • BUse Windows Hyper-V (a Type 1 hypervisor) to create the Linux VM directly on the host.
   • CConvert the Windows host to a Type 1 hypervisor and run Windows and Linux as guests.
   • DInstall a Type 2 hypervisor like VirtualBox on the Windows host and create the Linux VM within it.

   An administrator is configuring a new VM on a host that has 32 GB of physical RAM. The administrator plans to allocate 8 GB of RAM to the VM, but the host already has VMs that are allocated a total of 40 GB. The administrator enables memory overcommitment. What is the primary risk of this configuration?

   • AThe VM will automatically use disk space as RAM, which is slower but acceptable.
   • BThe VM will have a fixed amount of memory and cannot be changed later.
   • CThe host may experience memory pressure, causing the hypervisor to swap or balloon memory, which can degrade performance for all VMs.
   • DThe VM will fail to start because the host does not have enough physical memory.
