A isn't correct. Because Enable-ClusterStorageSpacesDirect don't require any parameter to enable S2D. B is correct. C isn't correct. Because by enabling S2D a storage pool is automatically created. D isn't correct. Because Add-ClusterResource sould be run after creating S2D environment.

Answer is correct. The storage pool and tiers get created automatically when enabling the feature. The next step after this is to create volumes.
