Letter B is correct A & D start with uppercase and ends with a number. Only 2 types of characters is includes, so A & D is removed from possible answers. C only have 6 characters so by deduction answer B is the correct answer. https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.5/com.vmware.vsphere.security.doc/GUID-DC96FFDB-F5F2-43EC-8C73-05ACDAE6BE43.html
Yes B:
A. Xqa_hin3 = 6long, 2types (first capital, last number)
B. xTaMEhb! = 8long, 3types ( OK )
C. xQA!3h = 6long, 3types (to short)
D. Xqavntthi3 =8long, 1type (first capital, last number)

ESXi Passwords
ESXi enforces password requirements for access from the Direct Console User Interface, the ESXi Shell, SSH, or the VMware Host Client.
By default, you have to include a mix of characters from four character classes: lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters such as underscore or dash when you create a password.
By default, password length is more than 7 and less than 40.
Passwords cannot contain a dictionary word or part of a dictionary word.
Note:
An uppercase character that begins a password does not count toward the number of character classes used. A number that ends a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
The correct answer is B. The "A" password is invalid due to this rule:-
An uppercase character that begins a password does not count toward the number of character classes used. A number that ends a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
"A" starts with a capital letter and ends with a number, meaning it only contains 2 character classes.
Answer is B, the examples of VMWare are the next:
With these settings, the following passwords are allowed.
xQaTEhb!: Contains eight characters from three character classes.
xQaT3#A: Contains seven characters from four character classes.
The following password candidates do not meet requirements.
Xqat3hi: Begins with an uppercase character, reducing the effective number of character classes to two. The minimum number of required character classes is three.
xQaTEh2: Ends with a number, reducing the effective number of character classes to two. The minimum number of required character classes is three.
With VMware ESXi 6 the password policy is changed and require to use more complex passwords. The password policy in ESXi 6 has the following requirements:
Passwords must contain characters from at least three character classes.
Passwords containing characters from three character classes must be at least seven characters long.
Passwords containing characters from all four character classes must be at least seven characters long.
An uppercase character that begins a password does not count toward the number of character classes used. A number that ends a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
Correct Answer - B.

A. Xqa_hin3 - Wrong as it starts with a capital letter.
B. xTaMEhb! - Correct - Meets all requirements.
C. xQA!3h - Wrong - Only has 6 characters.
D. Xqavntthi3 - Wrong. Starts with a capital letter, ends with a number. Does not meet the minimum requirements.

At least 1 special characters
At least 2 alphabetic characters
At least 1 uppercase characters
At least 1 lowercase characters
At least 1 numeric character
Identical adjacent characters: 3
When we create a password, we need to include a mix of characters from four character classes: lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters such as underscore.
The password policy in ESXi 6 has following requirements:
Passwords must contain characters from at least three character classes.
Passwords containing characters from three character classes must be at least seven characters long.
Passwords containing characters from all four character classes must be at least seven characters long.
An uppercase character that begins a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
A number that ends a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
The password cannot contain a dictionary word or part of a dictionary word.
================
A. Xqa_hin3 <--- starts with capital letter (X) and ends with a number (3) => count = 6 which is less than 7 so not good.
B. xTaMEhb! <--- no numbers means class three passwords; counts = 8 so this is the correct answer
C. xQA!3h <-- count =6,
D. Xqavntthi3 <--- special char missing
B is correct
The password policy in ESXi 6 has following requirements:
Passwords must contain characters from at least three character classes.
Passwords containing characters from three character classes must be at least seven characters long.
Passwords containing characters from all four character classes must be at least seven characters long.
An uppercase character that begins a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
A number that ends a password does not count toward the number of character classes used.
The password cannot contain a dictionary word or part of a dictionary word.
