- A
Ensure that sufficient NSX-T Edge clusters are available for the new workload domain.
- B
Verify that the vCenter Server instance is preconfigured for the new workload domain.
- C
Confirm that the physical network configuration matches the requirements for VCF workload domains.
- D

Correct answers: A, C, D
Explanation
Before adding a workload domain in a VMware Cloud Foundation deployment, administrators must ensure that all prerequisites are met to avoid deployment issues. NSX-T Edge clusters, physical network configuration, and compatible, unassigned ESXi hosts are critical components for a successful deployment. The vCenter Server instance is automatically deployed during the workload domain creation process, and licenses can be applied afterward, making these steps unnecessary beforehand.
- A. Correct.
NSX-T Edge clusters must be configured or available to enable network services for the workload domain, such as routing and load balancing.
- B. Incorrect.
A new vCenter Server instance is automatically deployed during the workload domain creation process. It does not need to be preconfigured beforehand.
- C. Correct.
The physical network must meet specific requirements, such as VLAN configuration, MTU settings, and connectivity, to ensure successful integration of the workload domain.
- D. Correct.
ESXi hosts must meet hardware compatibility requirements and should not already be part of an existing workload domain to be added successfully.
- E. Incorrect.
Licenses for the workload domain are applied during or after the deployment process. They do not need to be pre-applied in the SDDC Manager.
