A. B. C. D.

B.

The correct answer is A. Configure Enhanced Linked Mode on each vCenter Server instance after deployment is complete.

Explanation: Enhanced Linked Mode is a feature in vSphere that enables centralized management of multiple vCenter Server systems. By configuring Enhanced Linked Mode, an administrator can connect multiple vCenter Server systems into a single inventory object, which allows the administrator to manage them through a single pane of glass.

To enable Enhanced Linked Mode, an administrator needs to deploy vCenter Server instances and configure them with the same Single Sign-On domain during the deployment process. After deployment, the administrator can configure Enhanced Linked Mode on each vCenter Server instance using the vSphere Client.

Once Enhanced Linked Mode is configured, an administrator can log in to the vSphere Client and view the inventories of all the vCenter Server instances that are connected to the same Single Sign-On domain. This allows the administrator to manage all the vCenter Server instances from a single location.

Option B is incorrect because connecting each vCenter Server instance to the same Single Sign-On domain during deployment is only the first step in enabling Enhanced Linked Mode. Option C is also incorrect because connecting each vCenter Server instance to the same Single Sign-On domain using the vSphere Client is not enough to enable Enhanced Linked Mode. Option D is also incorrect because configuring the vCenter Server Management Interface does not provide the functionality to view the inventories of multiple vCenter Server instances.
