An administrator needs tooptimize a VM’s storageby leveragingcompression features. The VM’svDisksare currently stored in adefault storage containerwithno optimizations enabled.
How should the administrator proceed?
A.
Migrate vDisks to the Production storage container.
B.
Recreate the VM in the Production storage container and copy data.
C.
Migrate the VM to the Production storage container.
D.
Recreate the vDisk in the Production storage container and copy data.
Moving vDisks to a storage container with compression enabled ensures better data efficiency without downtime.
Option A (Migrate vDisks) is correct:
vDisk migration is non-disruptiveand allows compression settings to be applied dynamically.
Option B (Recreate the VM) is incorrect:
Rebuilding the VM is unnecessaryand would causedowntime.
Option C (Migrate the VM) is incorrect:
VM migration does not guarantee that only vDisks move, and it may disrupt performance.
Option D (Recreate vDisk) is incorrect:
This method ismanual and time-consuming, while Nutanix provides anautomated approach.
