Which virtual machine (VM) sizing strategy will provide the highest level of uptime, individual VM performance, and failover capacity?

A. A few large 8 vCPU VMs per host protected by vSphere HA.

B. Many small 1 vCPU VMs participating in an OS level clustered application protected by vSphere HA.

C. A few large 8 vCPU VMs per host protected by vSphere Fault Tolerance.
