Q: 12
An administrator is tasked with looking into the disaster recovery (DR) options for a software-defined
data center (SDDC).
The following requirements must be met:
•
All virtual machines (VMs) must be protected to a secondary site.
•
The source VMs must remain online until the failover.
•
When failing over to the secondary site, application downtime is allowed
•
The DR failover must be managed from the vSphere Client.
•
Costs must remain as low as possible.
How can the administrator accomplish this task?

Maybe B. SRM with vSphere Replication is cheaper than using array-based replication and it works right from the vSphere Client. Not totally sure if VCDR (A) could apply, but I think B hits all the requirements.
B tbh. D looks tempting but array-based replication isn’t as cost-effective and usually needs vendor-specific storage, so I’d avoid that trap here.
It’s B. If "most secure" or zero-downtime was needed though, I think D could fit better.
Be respectful. No spam.
