Network Admin Unit Exam 2

Question 1 of 22

1

Hyper-V in Windows Server 2012 is a Type I virtulization architecture. What is the fundamental difference between Hyper-V and older, Type II virtualization architectures?

Select one of the following:

  • Hyper-V creates environments called partitions, each with its own operating system installed.

  • Its hypervisor designates the first partition as the parent partition and all subsequent partitions as child partitions.

  • Its hypervisor is an abstraction layer and interacts directly with computer hardware, rather than as a host OS application.

  • Computer subsystems such as Plug and Play and power management are managed by Hyper-V's parent partition.

Explanation

Regarding virtual machines, what is Smart Paging used for?

Select one of the following:

  • When a VM has to restart and not enough memory is available to allocate its minimum RAM value

  • When a VM is overburdened with client traffic and not enough memory is available to allocate its maximum RAM value

  • When a VM is overburdened with client traffic and just enough memory is available to allocate is maximum RAM value
