Explanation

Migrating from a perpetual VM-Series license to the flexible VM licensing model has two key requirements. First, selecting 'Fixed vCPU Models' as the configuration type in the deployment profile ensures the flexible VM is provisioned with the same vCPU allocation as the original perpetual model, maintaining feature and performance parity during migration. Second, flexible VM-Series licensing is managed through Panorama-specifically, virtual Panorama is required to orchestrate, allocate, and track the flexible licenses. Without Panorama, license enforcement and management for flexible VMs cannot function. Allocating the same number of vCPUs directly (option B) is a result of selecting the fixed model, not a separate configuration step; restricting security services (option D) is not a migration requirement.
