TYPE OF QUESTION:
MCQ/MSQ

Number of questions: 10 Total mark: 10 X 1 = 10

QUESTION 1:
VM migration is the process of moving running applications or VMs from one physical host to
another host.
a. True
b. False

Correct Answer: a
Detailed Solution: VM migration is a process to move running applications or VMs from one
physical host/server to another host. So option (a) is correct.

QUESTION 2:
Given the VM memory size of 1024GB and the transmission rate of 16 MB/sec
What are the total migration time and downtime for non-live VM migration? Choose the most
appropriate option.

a. 20 hours, 25 hours
b. 18 hours,18 hours
c. 16 hours, 16 hours
d. 24 hours,20 hours

Correct Answer: b
Detailed Solution: Total Migration time = VM memory size/ transmission rate
=(1024x2^30)/(16x2^20)=65536 secs= 18 hours.
For non-live migration, overall migration time is the same as overall downtime.

QUESTION 3:
With Docker, the resource management effort is separated from the configuration effort.
a. True
b. False

Correct Answer: a
Detailed Solution: With Docker, the resource management effort is separated from the
configuration effort.

QUESTION 4:
In Docker utility, —------------ is a collection of filesystem layers and some metadata which, if
taken together, can be spun up as Docker containers.

a. Operating System
b. Microservice
c. Virtual Machine
d. Image

Correct Answer: d
Detailed Solution: In Docker utility, an image is a collection of filesystem layers and some
metadata which if taken together, they can be spun up as Docker containers.

QUESTION 5:
What is(are) the reason(s) to opt for VM migration in the cloud computing paradigm?

a. No particular reason; depends on the will of the end client/user.


b. To remove a physical machine from service
c. To save power consumption
d. To relieve the load on the congested hosts.

Correct Answer: b,d


Detailed Solution: We should opt for VM migration either in order to remove a physical machine
from service or to relieve the load on the congested hosts and/or both.

QUESTION 6:
What is(are) the key advantage(s) of Docker?

c. It can be used to model networks.


d. None of these

Correct Answer: a,b,c


Detailed Solution: Facilitating microservices, packaging software, and modeling networks for
initiating multiple isolated containers on a single machine, are the key advantages of Docker.

QUESTION 7:
Post-copy and Pre-copy migration approaches are followed in :
a. Live Migration process
b. Non-live Migration process
c. Hybrid Migration process
d. None of these

Correct Answer: a
Detailed Solution: Both Post-copy and Pre-copy are approaches for live migration process.

QUESTION 8:
Which of the following is (are) true in the case of Docker architecture?

Statement-1: Private Docker registry is a service that stores Docker images.


Statement-2: Docker on the host machine is split into two parts- a daemon with a RESTful API and
a client who talks with the daemon.

a. Only Statement-1 is true


b. Only Statement-2 is true
c. Both Statement-1 and 2 are true
d. Neither Statement 1 nor 2 is true

Correct Answer: c
Detailed Solution: Private Docker registry is a service that stores Docker images.
Moreover, Docker on the host machine is split into two parts- a daemon with RESTful API and a
client who talks with the daemon.

QUESTION 9:
Which of the statement(s) is(are) true for containers?
Statement-1: Docker is an open platform for automating the deployment, scaling, and management

of containerized applications.

Statement-2: Containers make it easy to share CPU, memory, storage and network resources at the
operating system level.

a. Only Statement-1 is true


b. Only Statement-2 is true
c. Both Statement-1 and 2 are true
d. Neither Statement 1 nor 2 is true

Correct Answer: b

Detailed Solution: Kubernetes is an open platform for automating the deployment, scaling, and
management of containerized applications. Containers make it easy to share CPU, memory, storage,
and network resources at the operating system level. So, only statement-2 is true.

QUESTION 10:
Kubernetes operates at the hardware level.
a. True
b. False

Correct Answer: b
Detailed Solution: Kubernetes operates at the container level.
