VCP-VVF Vmware Vsphere Foundation Fundamentals Practice Question
An administrator is deploying a cluster that will host latency-sensitive workloads, such as real-time voice and trading applications. Which advanced vSphere feature should be enabled to guarantee that virtual machine vCPUs are pinned directly to physical CPU cores without scheduling latency?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Latency Sensitivity set to High on the virtual machine advanced settings.
Latency Sensitivity settings (configured as 'High' on the VM) bypass normal CPU scheduler sharing, dedicating physical CPU resources to the virtual machine.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Enhanced vMotion Compatibility set to the latest CPU generation.
Why it's wrong here
EVC manages instruction baselines, not core pinning.
- ✓
Latency Sensitivity set to High on the virtual machine advanced settings.
Why this is correct
High Latency Sensitivity disables CPU yielding and dedicates physical cores to the VM.
- ✗
Storage I/O Control set to maximum priority.
Why it's wrong here
SIOC manages disk IOPS, not CPU scheduling latency.
- ✗
Virtual Machine Component Protection set to aggressive restart.
Why it's wrong here
VMCP manages storage reachability failures, not latency.
