Explanation

During failover in Nutanix Disaster Recovery, VMs retain their static IPs but may lose DNS settings if the network configuration at the DR site is different from the primary site. Option B (Create custom in-guest scripts) is correct: Custom scripts allow Windows or Linux VMs to restore DNS settings automatically after failover. These scripts can be executed using post-failover automation in Nutanix DR policies.
