What should you do?
A. Convert the data drives to use the VHDX file format.

C. Convert the virtual machines to Generation 2 virtual machines.
D. Upgrade the operating system to Windows Server 2012 R2.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Shared virtual hard disk functionality in guest failover clusters exclusively uses the .vhdx file format. Although the shared virtual hard disk must use the.vhdx file format for the data drive, the operating system disk for a virtual machine can use either the .vhd or the .vhdx file format.
Generation 1 and Generation 2 virtual machines are supported in a guest failover cluster using a shared virtual hard disk.
