After a planned power outage, an administrator decided to restart the vSAN cluster manually.
What is the correct sequence of steps for the administrator to follow after powering on the ESXi hosts?

Answer options

• A. 1. Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server only on one ESXi host. 2. Run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster. 3. Exit all hosts from maintenance mode.
• B. 1. Exit all hosts from maintenance mode. 2. Run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster. 3. Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts.
• C. 1. Exit all hosts from maintenance mode. 2. Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server only on one ESXi host. 3. Run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster.
• D. 1. Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts. 2. Run the python reboot helper script on all ESXi hosts to recover the cluster. 3. Exit all hosts from maintenance mode.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct sequence starts with exiting all hosts from maintenance mode to bring them online. Next, the python reboot helper script should be executed on one ESXi host to facilitate cluster recovery. Finally, enabling cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts ensures that updates are synchronized across the cluster. The other options either mix up the order or do not correctly follow the necessary steps for a successful recovery.
