Given that the customer is using a Cisco Nexus 9k switch and wants to deploy ESXi with a vSphere Distributed Switch while using LACP, the consultant should ensure that the customer configures:

• D. no lacp suspend-individual: This command ensures that LACP doesn't suspend the individual port if it does not receive LACP PDUs from the other side, which is crucial in environments where continuous connectivity is required for all member links of the port-channel to maintain uninterrupted network services.

• Cisco Nexus configuration guides, referred through Nutanix’s training materials, which recommend settings for optimal integration with Nutanix environments.

When migrating an ESXi host to a vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS), it's crucial to correctly configure network adapters, including those for the Controller Virtual Machine (CVM). If the consultant migrated both the CVM backplane and the VM network adapter to the vDS, this could disrupt host-to-CVM connectivity if not configured correctly on the vDS. Such a setup requires precise configuration of network settings and VLAN tags to maintain seamless connectivity and avoid communication alerts in Prism Element.

The correct container advanced setting to configure in order to prevent ISO container images from exceeding a 100GB limit is "Advertised Capacity." This setting allows administrators to set a maximum storage capacity that is visible and available to the user, irrespective of the actual physical capacity available, thereby preventing over-allocation and management issues in environments where strict capacity limits are required.
