Answers
C.
At least 3 NTP servers must be provided in a comma-separated list.
D.
At least one external NTP server must be used to complete Foundation process.
Answers
D.
At least one external NTP server must be used to complete Foundation process.
Suggested answer: A, B

Explanation:

For continuing the cluster deployment without an NTP server immediately available:

A. An NTP server is not required for the initial foundation process of the cluster and can indeed be added later. This allows the deployment to proceed without delays, although it's critical to add NTP synchronization as soon as possible post-deployment to ensure proper cluster time management. B. If an NTP server is to be provided using an FQDN, then a DNS server must indeed be available. This is because the FQDN needs to be resolved to an IP address, which requires DNS resolution services. Options C and D are not strictly required as per Nutanix deployment standards; a single NTP server can suffice initially, and there's no requirement for it to be external or in a comma-separated list unless specifically dictated by network or organizational policies.
