   A UCS domain has two fabric interconnects (FI-A and FI-B) and a chassis with two fabric extenders (IOM1 and IOM2). IOM1 is connected to FI-A, and IOM2 is connected to FI-B. A blade server is configured with a service profile that uses a single vNIC. The vNIC is pinned to fabric A. The technician needs to ensure that the blade retains network connectivity if FI-A fails. What should the technician do?

   • AAdd a second vNIC to the service profile and pin it to fabric B.
   • BMove the service profile to a different blade that is connected to FI-B.
   • CConfigure the vNIC to be 'fabric failover' enabled.
   • DConnect IOM1 to both FI-A and FI-B.
