2V0-32.24 Question 193
Select 3A cloud administrator is tasked with creating a custom dashboard in vRealize Operations that provides real-time insights into the performance of virtual machines (VMs) in a specific cluster. The dashboard should include a widget showing CPU utilization trends, another widget listing VMs exceeding a specific memory threshold, and a widget displaying the overall cluster health score. Which steps should the administrator take to achieve this objective?
- A
Use the 'View' option to create a list of VMs exceeding the memory threshold and add it as a widget to the dashboard.
- B
Add a 'Trend' widget to the dashboard and configure it to display the CPU utilization metric for the desired cluster.
- C
Use a pre-configured dashboard template from the vRealize Operations content library.
- D
Add a 'Health Status' widget to the dashboard and configure it to show the health score of the specific cluster.
- E
Create a SuperMetric to calculate the average CPU utilization for all VMs and use it in the 'Trend' widget.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
To create a custom dashboard that meets the specified requirements, the administrator should leverage the 'View' option for listing VMs exceeding a memory threshold, use a 'Trend' widget for CPU utilization trends, and add a 'Health Status' widget for the cluster health score. Pre-configured dashboards and SuperMetrics are not necessary in this case as the required data and visualization elements are already available in vRealize Operations.
- A. Correct.
Correct: The 'View' option allows the administrator to create a custom view, such as a list of VMs exceeding a memory threshold, which can then be added as a widget to the dashboard.
- B. Correct.
Correct: A 'Trend' widget is the appropriate choice for displaying CPU utilization trends over time. It must be configured with the desired metric and scope (e.g., the specific cluster).
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: While pre-configured dashboard templates can be useful, they do not meet the requirement to create a custom dashboard tailored to the specified needs.
- D. Correct.
Correct: The 'Health Status' widget displays the health score of a specific object, such as a cluster, and meets the requirement to show the overall cluster health.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: A SuperMetric is not necessary for this scenario as the CPU utilization metric is already available in vRealize Operations. SuperMetrics are typically used for calculations that are not natively available.
