Explanation

Nutanix VM Efficiency classifies VMs as Dead or Zombie only after they have met their respective inactivity thresholds for 30 days. Once classified, the Playbook then applies an additional 99-day wait before triggering deletion. Therefore, the total elapsed time before deletion is 30 + 99 = 129 days for both VM types. (C) Dead VMs: 30 days to be classified as Dead + 99-day Playbook wait = 129 days total. (B) Zombie VMs: 30 days to be classified as Zombie + 99-day Playbook wait = 129 days total. Both categories share the same 30-day classification window, so both result in 129 days - which exceeds the business requirement of 120 days, satisfying the policy.
