B. VMware vSphere Client
This question is regarding putting hosts into maintenance mode, not performing maintenance of the instant clone virtual machines. While the instant clone master image does need to be deleted, first, that was not the question.

Antes de colocar el host en modo mantenimiento se deberia poner en modo mantenimiento el IC con el procedimiento respectic por lo cual opino que la respuesta es: D

This command deletes the golden images, which are the parentVMs in vCenter Server from the ESXi host so that the host can be put into maintenance mode. The host is not automatically put into maintenance mode. To perform maintenance on the host, the vCenter Server administrator must manually put the host into maintenance mode.
Interestingly, tac_p's link shows that two of these answers are correct, with B being a more complete answer than D.
"You can use either of the following methods to put a host in and out of maintenance mode:
Method 1. From vSphere Client
Method 2. From Connection Server: From the Connection Server, run IcMaint.cmd to delete the parent VMs and put the host in maintenance mode"
About IcMaint, also note that "This command deletes the parent VMs from the host. The host IS NOT automatically put into maintenance mode. To perform maintenance on the host, the vCenter server administrator must manually put the host into maintenance mode."
