   A and D Correct

   Hosts that are added to a DRS cluster must meet certain requirements to use cluster features successfully

   Shared Storage
   Shared VMFS Volume
   Processor Compatibility
   vMotion

         NOT correct “B. Hosts with identical processor features”.
         For this purpose there is at least EVC, which isn’t mandatory.

   In order to use vMotion there has to be shared storage.

   Tricky. But I think A and D are correct. The keyword is “fully automated”. This means to be able to migrate VMs when necessary. This calls for vmotion. EVC can be used for cpus that differ in instruction sets. And http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-55/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-55-resource-management-guide.pdf page 67 says “ensure that the managed hosts use shared storage”. So, I would go with shared storage (because the official document says so) and “vmotion” because it needs to be fully automated.
