An administrator is evaluating whether to deploy vCenter Server on a Windows server or on a
vCenter Server appliance. The administrator has the following requirements:
• A web browser will be utilized to manage the vSphere environment.
• 16 ESXi hosts will be deployed.
• Licenses must be shared with a vCenter Server at another site.
• An external Oracle 10g database server will be used to host the vCenter Server database.
Why will the administrator need to deploy vCenter Server on a Windows server?
A.
Linked Mode is a requirement for the solution.
B.
Oracle 10g is a requirement for the solution.
C.
The vSphere web client is a requirement for the solution.
D.
Management of more than 5 hosts is a requirement for the solution.

The following features are not supported by the VMware vCenter Server Appliance.
■
Linked Mode
■
Microsoft SQL Server as a supported local or remote database
■
DB2 as a supported remote database
This is a painful option so I wanted to get this question wrong
A
the key is: Why will the administrator need to deploy vCenter Server on a Windows server?
