VMware VCP4

Category - Install & Upgrade

Guy is planning to upgrade an ESX 3.5 host to ESX 4. Which of the following configuration specifics would prevent him doing so? Choose two.
  1. The host has 4 GB of RAM.
  2. The host has dual 100Mbps Ethernet controllers.
  3. The host has a 32-bit CPU.
  4. The host has dual local 7.2K SATA disks.
  5. The host has 2Gbps Fibre Channel controllers.
Explanation
Answers: B and C - The upgrade would fail if the host had dual 100Mbps Ethernet controllers because minimum networking speed for the controllers is 1Gbps. Also, the CPU architecture must be a compatible 64-bit x86 processor, so the upgrade would fail if the host had a 32-bit CPU. The local disk speed and Fibre Channel speed are not taken into account when installing ESX, provided that the disk and adapters in question are listed on the Compatibility Guide. 4 GB of ram is sufficient to install ESX.
