The business managers have asked the IT administrator to ensure configuration compliance in the vSphere
infrastructure. The IT administrator wants to use Host Profiles to accomplish this, but is unable to do so.
Why is the administrator unable to use Host Profiles?
A.
The infrastructure uses a vSphere Standard license.
B.
The infrastructure has servers with various CPU families.
C.
The user has only the “Administrator” role.
D.
Host Profiles apply only to storage settings.
Explanation:
The administrator is unable to use host profiles because host profiles are not supported with vSphere standard
license. For host profile, you need vsphere Enterprise plus license.
