Answers
D.
vDisk directed at failed CVM will disconnect and reconnect when the failed CVM comes back online
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

In a Nutanix cluster, when a Controller Virtual Machine (CVM) fails, the iSCSI targets for the volume groups managed by that CVM are not left inoperable. Instead, the volume group's iSCSI targets (vDisks) are automatically redirected to another operational CVM in the cluster. This failover mechanism ensures that there is no interruption in service or data availability. The redirection is seamless and does not require manual intervention, allowing for continuous access to the volume group by the SQL cluster.
