In what two ways can vSphere Replication minimize network bandwidth consumption while replicating
and storing virtual machines? (Choose two.)
A.
It stores the replicated data in compressed format.
B.
It can use dedicated network resources for replication.
C.
It limits CPU cycles used during data transfer.
D.
It can use pre-shipped VMDK files as seeds.
It uses dedicated network resources for replication so the answer without a doubt is A and B.
The answer is D&B.
It does not store the data in a compressed format at rest, it compresses on transfer.

A&B
Replication Seeds is just used in the initial replication because of the amount of data.
Compressing the replication data that is transferred through the network saves network bandwidth

Answers: A and B.
A.
It stores the replicated data in compressed format.
B.
It can use dedicated network resources for replication.
Replication Data Compression
You can configure vSphere Replication to compress the data that it transfers through the network.
Data Compression Support
vSphere Replication 6.0 supports end-to-end compression when the source and target ESXi hosts are also version 6.0. The support of data compression for all other use cases depends on the versions of source and target ESXi hosts. The vSphere Replication servers on both the source and target sites must be 6.0.
