Oversubscription for the win! This is like asking a fish to identify water - it's just basic virtualization knowledge.

Thick provisioning would not be efficient in this scenario.

I agree with Keith, the ratio of virtual to physical memory is higher, so it's oversubscription.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm going to have to think it through. Maybe I'll just ask the professor to come up with less brain-teasing questions next time.

I'm not sure, maybe we should double-check the definitions of each option.

Why do they make these questions so confusing? It's obviously Oversubscription. I'm just going to go with my gut on this one.

I think it's Overprovisioning. Allocating more virtual memory than physical memory sounds like the system is being overprovisioned, right?

But with 200 GB virtual memory on 100 GB physical memory, it seems like oversubscription to me.

Oversubscription, for sure! I learned about this in my virtualization class. The virtual memory allocated is more than the physical memory available - that's the definition of oversubscription.
