Ah, the age-old battle of physical vs. virtual memory. I bet the developers are just 'thick' with excitement about this one.

I guess the sysadmins are really 'over-achieving' with this setup. Oversubscription, overprovisioning, who cares? As long as the VMs don't start fighting each other for memory, it's all good!

That makes sense, overprovisioning does seem like the right term in this scenario.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm leaning towards C) Oversubscription, but I could be wrong. I wonder if the exam writers are trying to trick us with these memory terms.

I'm going with D) Overprovisioning. Doesn't the 200 GB virtual memory mean they've overprovisioned the physical resources?

B: I agree with you, it makes sense that they would oversubscribe the memory in this scenario.

A: I think it's C) Oversubscription. They must be allocating more virtual memory than the physical memory available.

I disagree, I believe it is overprovisioning because the total virtual memory is greater than the physical memory.

Definitely C) Oversubscription. Seems like a straightforward question to me.

Yes, oversubscription is when the total virtual memory allocated exceeds the physical memory available.

I think the term that describes the virtual-to-physical memory allocation ratio is oversubscription.

I think the correct answer is C) Oversubscription. The virtual memory allocated is double the physical memory, which is a classic case of oversubscription.
