The administrator has been alerted that there is a problem with the cluster. The following has been observed:

* The vSAN Witness Host is offline.

* Two disk failures on two hosts have occurred in the preferred site.

This has resulted in a critical production virtual machine's vmdk becoming inaccessible.

Which step needs to be performed by the administrator to resolve the issue?

AReplace all failed disks on the preferred site.

BReplace the vSAN Witness Host

CReplace access to the existing vSAN Witness Host

DReplace only one failed disk on the preferred site.

Ah, the joys of vSAN! I'd say replace the vSAN Witness Host. Without that, the cluster is about as useful as a chocolate teapot.
