What are two requirements when configuring a Fibre Channel SAN with an ESXi 5.x cluster? (Choose two.)
The correct answer is A. RDMs must be zoned and masked to each ESXi 5 host in the cluster B. A FCP HBA or hardware supporting FCoE must be installed in the hosts. A: correct because yes, you have to Zone and mask to allow only the Hosts in that you want in. Zoning has the following effects: - Reduces the number of targets and LUNs presented to a host. - Controls and isolates paths in a fabric. - Can prevent non-ESXi systems from…

What are two requirements when configuring a Fibre Channel SAN with an ESXi 5.x cluster? (Choose two.)
Options
- ARDMs must be zoned and masked to each ESXi 5 host in the cluster
- BA FCP HBA or hardware supporting FCoE must be installed in the hosts
- CEach LUN should contain only one NFS datastore.
- DEach LUN must present a unique LUN ID to each ESXi hosts.

Explanation
A: correct because yes, you have to Zone and mask to allow only the Hosts in that you want in. Zoning has the following effects: - Reduces the number of targets and LUNs presented to a host. - Controls and isolates paths in a fabric. - Can prevent non-ESXi systems from accessing a particular storage system, and from possibly - Can be used to separate different environments, for example, a test from a production B: correct because yes you need HBAs to connect to the FC. C is obviously wrong as the FS is VMFS not NFS D is wrong because: Page 37 of the vSphere storage guide says. For multipathing to work properly, each LUN must present the "same" LUN ID number to all ESXi 50-storage-guide.pdf
