Answer is incorrect. There is no such command as “wbadmin start sysrecovey”

C is the correct answer.

The command would be…
wbadmin.exe start recovery -recoverytarget

D is right, TDAC you’re wrong.
The question states a bare-metal recovery is required.

“wbadmin.exe start recovery -recoverytarget” – Runs a recovery operation based on the parameters that you specify.

wbadmin start sysrecovery – Performs a system recovery (bare metal recovery) using the parameters that you specify.

The key here is the word “sys” in the command. One does a bare metal, the other one doesn’t. Proof provided by the technet articles posted here by both parties.
