Which type of storage policy configuration should the administrator use?

  1. A storage policy with tag or capability-based rules for vSAN Direct
  2. A storage policy with capability-based rules for third-party storage
  3. A vSAN shared nothing policy with no data redundancy (FTT=0)
  4. A vSAN storage policy with one failure to tolerate (FTT=1)

Answer(s): A
