QuestionQ32

FlexPod Configuration

When you create a virtual machine in VMware vSphere 5.x, which virtual-disk type should you provision to fully pre-allocate storage with the greatest likelihood of contiguous allocation?

  • A Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed
  • B Thin Provision
  • C Full Provision
  • D Thick Provision Eager Zeroed
Explanation

An eager-zeroed thick virtual disk reserves all required datastore capacity at creation and writes zeros to every block immediately. Because the full disk is allocated at once, it has the highest likelihood of contiguous allocation.
