Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Compliance with maximum vCPU limits supported by the specific vSphere FT release
Why this is correct
Correct. FT has strict vCPU count limitations per virtual machine to maintain deterministic instruction synchronization.
- ✓
Dedicated FT logging VMkernel adapters configured on participating ESXi hosts
Why this is correct
Correct. FT continuous replication streams require dedicated high-bandwidth network adapters.
- ✗
Disabling all network redundancy across the cluster uplinks
Why it's wrong here
Network redundancy is mandatory for stable FT heartbeat and logging replication.
- ✗
Hosting the primary VM exclusively on a local unshared USB drive
Why it's wrong here
Local unshared USB drives cannot be accessed by secondary hosts for FT failover.
- ✓
Shared storage accessible simultaneously by both primary and secondary host nodes
Why this is correct
Correct. Both primary and secondary VMs must access the same underlying virtual disk files on shared storage.
