I’m surprised that Memory Hot Add is even enabled on those VMs!

C looks good too, but I’m not sure about skipping the power off.

Wait, why would you power off the VM? Seems unnecessary.

I think option B might be the safest route since it includes powering off the VM, but it feels a bit lengthy compared to the others.

I feel like we should power off the VM before adding memory, but I can't recall if that's necessary with Memory Hot Add enabled.

I remember practicing a similar question where we had to add memory without powering off. Maybe option C is the right choice since it seems more efficient?

I think we should definitely take a snapshot first to ensure we can revert if anything goes wrong, but I'm not sure if we need to power off the VM.

This one seems pretty straightforward. I'm pretty confident that the answer is A - IBM Spectrum Scale or General Parallel File System (GPFS).

Wait, I'm a little confused. Is this asking about a specific type of inspection technique? I need to re-read the question more closely.

I remember studying about scaling resources during traffic spikes, so I think A and B should definitely be included here.
