A vSAN administrator was presented with 30 additional vSAN ReadyNodes to add to an existing vSAN cluster. There is only one administrator to complete this task. What is the fastest approach?
A.
Use a Host Profile that was extracted from an existing host.
B.
Clone the ESXi boot partition to all new hosts, since the hardware is identical.
C.
Run vim-cmd to capture, and apply the configuration from an existing host.
D.
Launch Quickstart to Add Hosts to a vSAN Cluster
D. Launch Quickstart to Add Hosts to a vSAN Cluster
the question is add host not configure host.
Use a host profile to configure all host added is the next step.
A
Configuring Hosts Using Host Profile
When you have multiple hosts in the vSAN cluster, you can use the profile of an existing vSAN
host to configure the rest of the hosts in the vSAN cluster.
The host profile includes information about storage configuration, network configuration, and
other characteristics of the host. If you are planning to create a cluster with many hosts, such as
8, 16, 32, or 64 hosts, use the host profile feature. Host profiles enable you to add more than one
host at a time to the vSAN cluster.
Prerequisites
n Verify that the host is in maintenance mode.
n Verify that the hardware components, drivers, firmware, and storage I/O controllers are listed
in the VMware Compatibility Guide at http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/
search.php.

The Quickstart workflow is designed for new clusters. When you upgrade an existing vSAN cluster to 6.7 Update 1 or later, the Quickstart workflow appears. Skip the Quickstart workflow and continue to manage the cluster through vCenter Server.

the correct is D.
we need add to a created cluster, no create a new cluster
In the same document
Page 29, quickstart "you can use the Quickstart workflow to
add hosts and storage devices to the cluster"
page 31, host profile " If you are planning to create a cluster.......use host profile"
