Correct answer: A, B, D

Explanation

The correct prerequisites for enabling Fast-Start Failover include operating in Maximum Performance or Maximum Availability mode (A), enabling Flashback Database on both primary and standby databases (B), and having the Data Guard environment managed by the Data Guard Broker (D). Options C, E, and F do not represent necessary conditions for Fast-Start Failover, as they either impose unnecessary restrictions or don't address required settings.
