Which two configurations are required when creating deployment profiles to migrate a perpetual VM-Series firewall to a flexible VM? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B, C

When migrating from a perpetual VM-Series firewall license to a flexible VM licensing model, two critical steps are needed:

Allocate same number of vCPUs -- This ensures that the VM-Series capacity remains consistent and avoids resource bottlenecks.

''When migrating perpetual VM-Series licenses to flexible VM licensing, allocate the same vCPU and memory resources to ensure equivalent performance.''

(Source: VM-Series Flexible Licensing Migration)

Limit to same security services -- Flexible licensing requires maintaining the same security services to preserve licensing compliance.

''Ensure that you allow only the same security services on the flexible VM instance as were licensed on the perpetual VM.''

I agree with B, but C seems too restrictive.

Deploying virtual Panorama sounds important, but I don't think it's one of the required configurations for this migration.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think "Fixed vCPU Models" might be the right choice for one of the configurations.

I remember something about security services, but I can't recall if we have to allow the same ones or if we can change them.

I think we need to allocate the same number of vCPUs as the perpetual VM, but I'm not sure about the other option.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. The key is to select the configurations that will ensure a smooth transition from the perpetual VM to the flexible VM, like matching the vCPU and security services. I'll go with options B and A.

Okay, I've got this. Based on the question, I need to choose the configurations that allow me to maintain the same vCPU and security services as the perpetual VM. Options B and A seem to be the right choices.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. I'm not sure which two configurations are required. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about how they relate to the migration process.

Haha, C is a trap! You don't want to limit yourself to the same old services, that's the whole point of going flexible.

Definitely B and D. Migrating to a flexible VM means you need to right-size the resources, not just copy the old setup.

B and D seem like the right choices here. Can't just carry over the same vCPU and services from the perpetual VM, gotta be flexible!
