   A VxRail cluster is being deployed in a rack that also houses existing storage arrays. The rack has 30U of free space. The VxRail nodes are 2U each, and the cluster requires 4 nodes. The administrator also needs to install 2 PDUs (0U) and a management switch (1U). The existing storage arrays consume significant power and generate heat. What is the most critical design consideration?

   • AThe total U-height of 9U exceeds the 30U of free space.
   • BThe total power draw of the new equipment may exceed the rack's power budget.
   • CThe cabling for the new nodes will interfere with existing storage cabling.
   • DThe weight of the new equipment exceeds the rack's capacity.
