What should the administrator do?

While testing a Fault Tolerance setup on a virtual machine, a system administrator notices that the
DRS automation level of the virtual machine has been automatically set to Disabled.
The administrator needs to enable DRS to migrate the Fault Tolerance virtual machine to balance the
cluster’s CPU and memory loads.

Why does EVC has to do with this question when it should be C. (Manually change the DRS automation level of the virtual machine to Enabled.)

Answer is A.
If you have not enabled Enhanced vMotion Compatibility (EVC) for the cluster, fault tolerant virtual machines are set to DRS disabled. They appear on this screen, but you cannot assign an automation mode to them.
