What are two benefits of virtual compatibility mode for RDMs, as compared to physical compatibility mode? (Choose two)

A.
Allows the use of SAN-aware applications

B.
Allows for cloning

C.
Allows for the use of array-based snapshots

D.
Allows for template creation of the related virtual machine

Explanation:

Storage options for virtual machines: Raw device mappings, VMFS RDM limitations

There are two types of RDMs: virtual compatibility mode RDMs and physical compatibility mode RDMs. Physical mode RDMs, in particular, have some fairly significant limitations:

No VMware snapshots

No VCB support, because VCB requires VMware snapshots
No cloning VMs that use physical mode RDMs into templates

No migrating VMs with physical mode RDMs if the migration involves copying the disk

No vMotion with physical mode RDMs
