VMware vSphere 8.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2022) — Question 103

An administrator is NOT able to enable ESXi secure boot.
What is a possible cause of this issue?

Answer options

• A. The vCenter Server version is 7.0.
• B. ESXi is using Trusted Platform Module version 1.2.
• C. The ESXi version is 7.0
• D. ESXi is using Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI).

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because ESXi requires a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version of 2.0 or higher to enable secure boot. Options A and C are not relevant to the secure boot functionality, and option D is not a cause for the issue since UEFI is actually required for secure boot to function.
