RAID-1 (Mirroring) is the default and recommended vSAN storage policy for management workloads to ensure redundancy and availability.
- B. Correct.
vSAN requires all physical disks in the cluster to be claimed to ensure proper storage configuration and availability for management workloads.
- C. Incorrect.
Deduplication and compression are not manually enabled during management domain deployment; these features are typically configured post-deployment if needed.
- D. Correct.
A minimum of four ESXi hosts is required for a VMware Cloud Foundation management domain cluster to provide redundancy and meet system requirements.
- E. Incorrect.
Stretched cluster vSAN policies are not configured during initial management domain deployment. These are advanced configurations for specific use cases.
