During manual node discovery, you receive an authentication error. What is the most likely cause?

The node's IP address is incorrect

The node is already part of another cluster

Incorrect credentials were entered for the node

What is the first step in the manual node discovery process?

Validating the node's firmware version

Configuring the cluster's virtual IP

Entering the node's IP address and credentials

A VxRail administrator is manually entering node details for a cluster. The administrator enters the iDRAC IP and credentials for the first node, but the wizard reports 'Authentication Failed'. The administrator confirms the credentials are correct. What is the most likely cause of the failure?

The node's BIOS is not set to UEFI mode.

The node's service tag is incorrect.

The node's hostname is not resolvable.

The iDRAC user account is locked due to multiple failed attempts.

A VxRail administrator is running automated discovery and notices that the tool is taking an unusually long time to complete. The administrator suspects a network issue. Which step should the administrator take to diagnose the problem?

Confirm that the nodes have been assigned static IP addresses.

Check for network congestion or packet loss on the management network.

Ensure that the nodes are running the latest iDRAC firmware.

Verify that the nodes have the correct time zone configured.

Why is node discovery considered an important step in VxRail deployment planning?

It provides a backup of the node's operating system

It automatically configures the cluster's virtual IP addresses

It ensures that only supported and correctly configured nodes are included in the cluster

It eliminates the need for manual network configuration
