[All 2V0-01.19 Questions]

A vSphere administrator notices that sometimes they receive poor network throughput for multiple port groups that reside on a vSwitch with multiple physical uplinks (vmnics). The configuration on the ESXi host is identical to other hosts that are working properly in the same cluster.
What should be done next?

  • A. Add additional port groups the v Switch.
  • B. Add additional resources to the virtual machines that are powered on.
  • C. Restart Management agents in ESXi Direct Console User Interface (DCUI).
  • D. Alter the failover order of the vmnics until a bad vmnic is found.

Would vote for D too! - All Explanations on Host/VM CPU Ressources for B completely ignore the Hint in the description, that all Hosts are configured identical. => Missing Host CPU Ressources could be (if identical does not hold for the CPUs), but this assumption is bit stretchy. Should adding physical CPUs (=in RL most times ordering a new Server) be really be the first/next step after a Problem is reported? => Missing VM CPU Ressources would manifest on other Hosts too. (And is ignoring the Hint that the Port Groups have Problems) => Missing NIC Throughput would be a good Idea, if the Hosts where not identical configured. - TiredofTesting's Explanation assumes a distributed vSwitch and NIOC. Maybe it's a DVS (could be interpreted that way) - but if NIOC is the issue the Problem would not be just on one Host. - Ganchev's Explanation ignores the Fact for multiple Uplinks and the Standard Loadbalancing (Orginating Virtual Port ID). If VMs/Port Groups are loadbalanced on a bad NIC it would manifest as being sometimes. ==> So for the core Question "what should be done NEXT": Test your NICs first (D).

Yes B is correct, from the reference, adding NICs or CPU to the host means adding resources

The key word here is "sometimes", which excludes D as an answer. If we have failed NIC, it would be always, not sometimes. Bet on B.

could be a teamed NICs with different load balancing options and when that NIC is used (sometimes) it shows poor performance. D is the most reasonable and zero cost option to start with.

it should be D The issue is on multiple portgroups not on VMs, and it would impact all the VMs not specific ones. Going with D as first troubleshooting action makes more sens.

It is B. In reference to using distributed vswitch for Network resource allocation for VM. The Youtube video will explain where it is allocated. Note that standard vSwitches will not have this option for VMs and you must select Distributed Switches as the Network adapter. If this is misconfigured, then the VM will have poor performance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvczUp6d8ZY

From the KB, "Host CPU, or possibly virtual machine CPU, resources are not enough to handle the load." Also, " increase the host CPU or virtual machine CPU"

in the referenced doc there's no mention on vm resources but it's mentioned the HW nic malfuncion. Moreover increasing vm resources doesn't solve network problem.
