VMware Site Recovery Manager (2025) — Question 5

A VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) administrator is preparing to create a new workload domain within an existing VCF instance.
Which two of the following tasks must be completed before starting the workload domain deployment workflow? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Commission the new ESX hosts into the existing VCF instance from VCF Installer.
• B. Commission the new ESX hosts into the existing VCF instance from the new workload domain vCenter.
• C. Commission the new ESX hosts into the existing VCF instance from the management domain vCenter.
• D. Pre-install a supported ESX version onto the server using a valid .ISO image.
• E. Pre-install a supported ESX version onto the server with VCF Installer.

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

The correct tasks are to commission the new ESX hosts from the management domain vCenter (C) and pre-install a supported ESX version using a valid .ISO image (D). Options A and B are incorrect because they involve commissioning from the wrong vCenters, and option E is not a valid prerequisite as the ESX version must be prepared using a .ISO image.
