Explanation
Answer: B - VMware Distributed Power Management is the vSphere technology that allows hosts to be powered off during periods of low activity to save on power and cooling expense. DPM monitors the total demand of all virtual machines in a cluster and compares this against the total resource available to the cluster. If any excess is found, then it places one or more hosts in standby mode and powers them off after all virtual machines have been evacuated.
