Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
SAN only with vHBA
Boot from SAN uses a vHBA to connect to a storage LUN. The boot policy should list the SAN target first.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Local disk and SAN with equal priority
Why it's wrong here
Boot order must be sequential; equal priority is not supported.
- ✗
PXE first, then SAN
Why it's wrong here
PXE is network boot; not needed for SAN boot.
- ✗
Local disk first, then SAN
Why it's wrong here
This would attempt local boot first, which is not desired.
- ✓
SAN only with vHBA
Why this is correct
Correct. Boot from SAN requires the vHBA as the primary (and only) boot device in the policy.
