Which is true when assigning global permissions in a single vSphere Single Sign-On domain in a multi-site configuration?
The correct answer is D. Users assigned global permissions will be able to access objects and solutions within that. Global permissions in vSphere are bounded by the SSO domain in which they are defined and do not extend beyond it.

Why each option
Global permissions in vSphere are bounded by the SSO domain in which they are defined and do not extend beyond it.
While global permissions do span all vCenter instances within the SSO domain, implying unrestricted cross-domain access is incorrect because permissions are bounded by the SSO domain boundary.
Global permissions are not limited to a single site - they apply to all vCenter Server instances that are members of the same SSO domain.
A global permission grants whatever role is assigned, not automatically administrator access - the privilege level is determined by the specific role bound to that permission.
Global permissions in vSphere are scoped to a specific vSphere Single Sign-On domain. In a multi-site configuration sharing a single SSO domain, those permissions propagate to all vCenter Server instances joined to that domain, but they are strictly confined within that domain's boundary and do not cross into a separate SSO domain.
