Answer: B

Explanation:

The vSAN administrator must perform an immediate upgrade of the on-disk format. This status indicates that the vSAN on-disk format version is lower than the expected version. This could be caused by an incompatible version of the vSAN software or may be due to a failed upgrade attempt. In order to address this issue, the vSAN administrator must perform an immediate upgrade of the on-disk format.
