B.
The UC on UCS TRC support model has a rule-based approach and the third-party servers specbased support model has a configuration-based approach.

third-party server spec-based support model.
E.
VMware vCenter is optional for the UC on UCS TRC support model but it is mandatory for the

Explanation:
VMware vCenter is
optional when deploying on UC on UCS Tested Reference Configuration hardware
mandatory when deploying on UC on UCS Specs-based and Third-party Server Specs-based
hardware.
vCenter Statistics Level 4 logging is mandatory so that Cisco TAC is able to provide effective support.
Click here for how to configure VMware vCenter to capture these logs. If not configured by default,
Cisco TAC may request enabling these settings in order to provide effective support.
Also note that enablement of specific VMware vSphere management features may require vCenter
and/or a higher feature Edition of vSphere ESXi.
Cisco Collaboration does not require its own dedicated vCenter.
Note that when VMware vCenter is not required and is not used, then VMware vSphere ESXi’s
default management interface is its free/included VMware vSphere Client (formerly branded VI
Client).
