Correct answer: AD
To capture the virtual machine in the state:
A. Create a scheduled task to clone
D. Create a scheduled task to create a snapshot
I would agree with Andrew. It is asking to “capture” the virtual machine in that specific state. Wouldn’t cloning and snapshot be the best answer? Another dump I have says the answer should be C and D, but I would disagree with C and change it to A.
