Final answer:

The vSphere Fault Tolerance feature in VMware provides continuous availability for virtual machines by creating a secondary VM that runs in parallel with the primary VM.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vSphere Fault Tolerance feature in VMware provides continuous availability for virtual machines (VMs) by creating a secondary VM, known as the Fault Tolerance (FT) VM, that runs in parallel with the primary VM. It ensures that if the primary VM fails, the secondary FT VM takes over seamlessly without any interruption to the application running inside the VM.

Regarding the shared files, all of the above (A, B, and C) are vSphere Fault Tolerance shared files.

  1. VMX (Virtual Machine Configuration) files: These files contain the configuration settings of the VM, including CPU, memory, network, and storage settings.
  2. VMDK (Virtual Machine Disk) files: These files are the virtual hard disk files that store the data on the VM.
  3. NVRAM (Non-Volatile Random Access Memory) files: These files save the BIOS settings of the VM, allowing the VM to resume from the same state after a failover.
