An organization has a multi-tenant vSphere environment where different departments manage their own VMs. The security team wants to ensure that only authorized administrators can modify VM settings, while allowing other users to view VM status. What is the most effective way to achieve this?

Assign the VM Admin role to all users in the organization.

Use VM Encryption to protect the VMs from unauthorized access.

Enable DRS to automatically balance VM workloads across hosts.

Create a custom role with only the 'Virtual machine. Configuration' privilege and assign it to administrators.

A vSphere administrator is troubleshooting why a VM cannot be encrypted. The VM is stored on a vSAN datastore, and the KMS is configured. The administrator has verified that the VM is not already encrypted. What is the most likely cause of the issue?

The VM is using a storage policy that does not include encryption.
