A VM is experiencing high CPU ready time, but the host has plenty of idle CPU capacity. In esxtop, the VM's %RDY is 20%, but the host's %USED is only 30%. What is the most likely cause?

The VM has more vCPUs than the host has physical cores, causing scheduling contention.

The VM's CPU limit is set too low, throttling its CPU usage.

The VM's memory is over-committed, causing CPU overhead for memory management.

The VM's CPU shares are set too low, limiting its CPU entitlement.

A VM is stuck in the "Powered Off" state and cannot be powered on. Which action is most appropriate to attempt first?

Delete the VM from inventory and re-register it.

Use the "Power On" action again after waiting a few minutes.

Check for pending tasks and cancel or clear them.

What is the primary impact of leaving a VM with a large snapshot in place for an extended period?

The VM's virtual disk grows and performance may degrade.

The VM becomes unable to migrate with vMotion.

The VM's CPU allocation is reduced.

The VM's network performance degrades.

A VM with Fault Tolerance (FT) has a secondary VM that is not powering on. What is a common cause?

The primary VM is not powered on.

The secondary VM is placed on a host that does not support FT.

The VM's network adapter is disconnected.
