Question

A vSphere administrator needs to add more space to an existing 3-node Virtual SAN cluster. The attempts to add the new host to the cluster as a contributing member have failed. However, it can be added as a non-contributing member. The host was previously used in a single host configuration. The administrator recently upgraded the host from ESXi 5.1 to 5.5 prior to adding it to the cluster. What is the reason for this failure?

Options

  • AThe only SSD disk in the new host was formatted with a VMFS datastore.
  • BThe new host has a 10Gbps NIC while the rest of the cluster members have 1Gbps NICs.
  • CThe RAID controller in the new host does not have enough cache for the Virtual SAN datastore.
  • DThe new host's VMFS datastores do not have sufficient capacity to be added as a contributing member.
