Question #: 34
Topic #: 1
In afive-node cluster, an administrator noticed thatthree VMsare consuming too many resources on asingle host.
Acropolis Dynamic Scheduling (ADS) is not able to migrate these VMs.
What is the most likely reason preventing ADS from migrating these VMs?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

VMs using GPU pass-through cannot be live-migrated because they are directly tied to a physical GPU on a specific host.
* Option B (VMs use GPU pass-through) is correct:
* Pass-through devices (such as GPUs) are directly assigned to VMs, makingmigration impossibleunless the VM is powered off first.
* Option A (VMs use a Volume Group) is incorrect:
* Volume Groupssupport live migrationunless they are configured incorrectly.
* Option C (VM-VM anti-affinity) is incorrect:
* Anti-affinity rules prevent two specific VMs from running together, but do not prevent migration.
* Option D (VMs use external NAS) is incorrect:
* Using NAS does not block VM migration, as Nutanixsupports shared storage across hosts.
