Question of the Day for the VMware Certified Professional Exam

Show Question
Q:
One of the benefits of virtual machines is that if one of them crashes, it does not affect the others. What is the correct term for this benefit?
A. Hardware independence

B. Compatibility

C. Isolation

D. Encapsulation
A:
Answer C is correct. Although hardware independence, compatibility, and encapsulation are all benefits of VMs, isolation is the correct answer here. With isolation, if a VM crashes, it has no effect on other VMs. Hardware independence means that VMs do not detect and are not aware of the actual physical hardware. Encapsulation means that VMs are a collection of files. Compatibility means they share ideal hardware based on x86 standard architecture.
