Which feature must be enabled to use vSphere Fault Tolerance?

The correct answer is C. vSphere HA. vSphere Fault Tolerance provides continuous availability for a virtual machine by maintaining a live shadow instance, and it requires vSphere HA to be enabled.

Why each option

vSphere Fault Tolerance provides continuous availability for a virtual machine by maintaining a live shadow instance, and it requires vSphere HA to be enabled.

AvSphere DRS

vSphere DRS (Distributed Resource Scheduler) is used for load balancing and resource optimization and is not a prerequisite for the core functionality of vSphere Fault Tolerance.

BvSphere Replication

vSphere Replication is an asynchronous replication solution for disaster recovery and is distinct from the synchronous, continuous availability provided by Fault Tolerance.

CvSphere HACorrect

vSphere Fault Tolerance (FT) relies on vSphere HA (High Availability) to ensure protection for both the primary and secondary fault-tolerant virtual machines. If a host running either the primary or secondary FT VM fails, HA restarts the affected VM on another host to maintain continuous service.

DvSAN

vSAN (vSphere Storage Area Network) is VMware's software-defined storage solution; while FT VMs require shared storage, vSAN is not a mandatory prerequisite, as other shared storage types can also be used.
