Explanation

N+1 availability requires one spare host for failover (e.g., 3 active + 1 = 4 hosts minimum for 5 VMs). Option A, "four hosts with prioritization rules" (e.g., DRS VM-Host affinity), ensures resources for the 5 VMs, meets N+1 (3 active, 1 spare), and minimizes cost compared to 6 hosts. Option B (3 hosts) lacks N+1 (no spare). Options C and D (6 hosts) exceed minimal cost, with C risking bottlenecks (VMs together) and D less optimal for resource focus. A balances VCF 5.2 HA
