NOTE: Question is asking about MUST installation requirements not best practices so Answer A wouldnt be correct and vCenter DOESN’T have to be on a domain.See: Installing vCenter Server 5.0 best practices http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2003790 and page 193-194 on vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-50-installation-setup-guide.pdf
* Verify that the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the system where you are installing vCenter Server is resolvable. To check that the FQDN is resolvable, type nslookup <vCenter_Server_fqdn> at a command line prompt. If the FQDN is resolvable, the nslookup command returns the IP and name of the domain controller machine.
* Verify that no Network Address Translation (NAT) exists between the vCenter Server system and the hosts it will manage.
* Make sure the system on which you are installing vCenter Server is not an Active Directory domain controller. Installing vCenter Server on a domain controller is not supported.
