Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

To create an alert for idle VMs, the administrator needs to specify the following parameters:

Scope: Select the category value Environment:Production to filter the VMs that are affected by the alert.

Metric: Select CPU Usage (%) as the metric to monitor the VMs' CPU utilization.

Condition: Select Less Than as the operator and enter 5 as the threshold value to define the idle state.

Duration: Enter 5 as the duration value and select Minutes as the unit to set the time period for the idle state.

To create a Playbook with the alert as the trigger, the administrator needs to do the following steps:

Name: Enter a descriptive name for the Playbook, such as Idle VM Alert.

Trigger: Select Alert as the trigger type and choose the alert that was created for idle VMs.

Action: Select Email as the action type and enter the recipient email address, subject, and message for the notification.

The Playbook will run whenever the alert is triggered and send an email to the administrator informing them about the idle VMs.
