D.
Create a failover cluster.
Explanation:
In order to accomplish the task, you should use Network Load Balancing. Network Load Balancing
(NLB) is a clustering technology offered by Microsoft. In order to scale performance, it uses a
distributed algorithm to load balance network traffic across multiple hosts. It also ensures high
availability by detecting host failures and automatically redistributes traffic to operational hosts.
of resources. This ensures data integrity and high availability. It has two types of nodes: the active
node and the passive node. The active node provides service to incoming connections. The passive
node provides service when an active node moves offline.
documentation provided with Windows operating system. It supports the configuration and
deployment of Windows operating systems. Administrators can use Windows AIK for automating

(USMT), etc.
NIC. It is used to make a network fault tolerant.
