Selected Answer: B
Option B, which involves converting the physical servers to the hypervisors and retiring the ten servers, would address the request with minimal server downtime and reduce power consumption and maintenance costs. Since the hypervisors are new and have low utilization, there is ample capacity to virtualize the existing physical servers. This would reduce the number of physical servers, resulting in lower power consumption and maintenance costs. Option A, which involves unplugging power cables, may result in unexpected downtime and would not reduce power consumption or maintenance costs. Option C, which involves re-imaging the physical servers and retiring them after the migration is complete, would require significant downtime and would not necessarily reduce power consumption or maintenance costs. Option D, which involves converting the physical servers to power-efficient core editions, may reduce power consumption, but would not necessarily ad
