During a PowerFlex deployment, which steps are required to complete resource discovery? (Choose
two).

C or D? Actually, I think it's A and B. For PowerFlex, every node needs a unique IP first (A) and network connectivity has to be validated (B) so MDM can find all the SDS nodes. Setting up storage pools (C) and vSphere (D) comes after initial resource discovery. Pretty sure about this but if someone has seen otherwise, let me know.
A and B imo. Without IPs, the nodes can't be seen by the MDM, and connectivity checks are needed so resource discovery actually works. Storage pools (C) are set up after discovery, and vSphere (D) is for virtualization on top, not the core SDS setup. Saw similar in Dell official training material. Anyone disagree?
A and B is it. You need IPs set on all nodes so MDM can find them, and network has to be up between SDS nodes for discovery to work. C and D happen later in the config, not during initial resource discovery. Pretty sure that lines up with how PowerFlex works but open to corrections.
A is wrong, B and A. Had something like this in a mock-the nodes need proper IPs and network has to be good for resource discovery. No need for vSphere or metadata pools at this stage.
