Which vSphere feature can be used to automatically adjust the number of active hosts in a cluster based on demand?

vSphere Distributed Power Management (DPM)

What is the primary purpose of establishing a performance baseline for a cluster?

To automatically resolve performance bottlenecks

To detect anomalies and measure the impact of optimization changes

To replace the need for ongoing monitoring

To configure alarm thresholds for all metrics

A vSphere cluster has three hosts with uneven VM distribution, causing one host to be heavily loaded while others are underutilized. The administrator wants to automatically balance the VMs across the hosts to improve overall performance. Which feature should be configured to achieve this?

vSphere DRS with a fully automated migration policy

Storage DRS to balance I/O across datastores

Resource pools with high shares for the heavily loaded host

vSphere HA with admission control enabled

A vSphere administrator needs to assess CPU, memory, storage, and network utilization across a cluster. Which vSphere tool provides a centralized dashboard for viewing these performance metrics?

vSphere Distributed Switch health check

vSphere Web Client inventory lists

vSphere Client performance charts

vSphere Update Manager compliance view

An administrator is troubleshooting a cluster where VMs are experiencing high network latency. Monitoring shows that the physical NICs on the hosts are not saturated, but the virtual switches are dropping packets. What is the most likely cause and what should the administrator do?

The virtual switch is misconfigured; check for a faulty uplink or incorrect teaming policy

The VMs have too many virtual NICs; reduce the number of NICs

The VMs are using too much CPU; increase CPU shares

The physical network is congested; upgrade the physical switches
