This looks more like a certification (VCP) test to me. To prepare for this type of scenario your should check out the VMware Certification resources. On the VCP-DV page you find an Exam Blueprint and a practice exam at the bottom right. That should give you more hands-on experience with questions like these. You also might want to check out the VCP Forum.
A side note (truly my 2c only): I find these questions tricky for an interview. When I joined VMware over 7 years ago I did have gaps in my detailed technical knowledge of some areas. But I had a very strong industry background, consulting references, and I knew a lot about applications, databases, and other topics. And now I get on very well here, because over the years I learned all I was missing.
