5V0-35.21 VMware vRealize Operations Specialist Free Practice Exam Questions (2025 Updated)

 vRealize Operations provides two types of pricing cards, cost-based and rate-based, to calculate the price associated with your virtual infrastructure. You can assign pricing cards to vCenters or Clusters, depending on the pricing strategy determined by vRealize Operations administrator. The pricing cards help you to set the price for each resource present in your virtual environment. You can customize the pricing card as per your requirement.

Cost-based pricing card: A cost-based pricing card calculates the price based on the cost of the resources defined in vRealize Operations. You can specify a multiplication factor for each resource type, such as CPU, memory, storage, etc., to adjust the price according to your business needs. The price equation using cost is:  x = Price

Rate-based pricing card: A rate-based pricing card calculates the price based on the rate of the resources defined by you. You can specify a rate for each resource type, such as CPU, memory, storage, etc., in terms of units, such as MHz, GB, etc. You can also specify the charging period and the power state for each resource type.The price equation using rate is:  x = Price

 The support bundle that the customer should send that fits the bandwidth constraints is the light-support bundle from all nodes. A support bundle is a collection of logs, configuration files, and diagnostic information that can be used by VMware support to troubleshoot and resolve issues with vRealize Operations1. A support bundle can be generated from the Admin UI of vRealize Operations, and it can include information from the primary nodes, the replica nodes, and the remote collectors2. A support bundle can be either full or light, depending on the amount and type of information that is included. A full-support bundle contains all the logs, configuration files, and diagnostic information that are available, and it is recommended for most cases. A light-support bundle contains only the essential logs, configuration files, and diagnostic information that are needed for basic troubleshooting, and it is recommended for cases where the bandwidth is limited or the issue is not complex3. A light-support bundle is smaller in size than a full-support bundle, and it can be generated faster and transferred easier. A light-support bundle from all nodes includes the information from the primary nodes, the replica nodes, and the remote collectors, and it can help VMware support to identify the cause of the erratic behavior and the role of the remote collectors. A full-support bundle from the primary nodes only (option A) or a light-support bundle from the primary nodes only (option B) are not the best choices, as they do not include the information from the replica nodes and the remote collectors, which may be relevant for the issue. A full-support bundle from all nodes (option C) is not the best choice, as it is larger in size than a light-support bundle, and it may exceed the bandwidth constraints or take longer to generate and transfer. References:

 According to the vRealize Operations User Guide1, one of the best ways to quickly identify the underlying problem of slow application VMs is to use the out-of-the-box Performance dashboards that display contention on both VMs and ESXi hosts. These dashboards show the key performance indicators (KPIs) of CPU, memory, disk, and network for the selected objects, and highlight any contention or saturation issues that may affect the performance. The administrator can use these dashboards to drill down into the details of the metrics, alerts, events, and properties of the objects, and isolate the root cause of the problem. The other options are not correct because:

Under Inventory, selecting Manage Agent, then selecting the VMs, and running Remote Checks on ICMP, HTTP checks is not a helpful action, as it only verifies the connectivity and availability of the VMs, but does not provide any information about the performance or contention of the VMs or the ESXi hosts2.

Under Report, using Configuration Report - Virtual Machines to list down possible changes that have occurred is not a helpful action, as it only shows the configuration details of the VMs, such as name, UUID, power state, guest OS, CPU, memory, disk, and network, but does not show any performance or contention metrics or alerts of the VMs or the ESXi hosts3.

Under Administration, choosing Configuration, selecting Object Relationships, and then identifying the VMs and ESXi hosts relationship to generate a correlation of the metric, and finally, isolate the issue is not a helpful action, as it only shows the hierarchical and logical relationships between the objects, such as parent, child, sibling, and peer, but does not show any performance or contention metrics or alerts of the objects4. References: 1: vRealize Operations User Guide, pages 57-59, 62-632: vRealize Operations User Guide, pages 69-703: vRealize Operations User Guide, pages 81-824: vRealize Operations User Guide, pages 84-85.

To view the status of all objects in vRealize Operations, you can create a dashboard by adding widgets or views. You can create and modify dashboards and configure them to meet your environment needs. Widgets are graphical elements that display data and analysis from vRealize Operations. Views are predefined or custom presentations of object data that you can use in dashboards, reports, or alerts. Alerts, recommendations, and reports are not objects that can be used to create dashboards, but they can be displayed or accessed from dashboards. References:
