Should be D

1. Metro Availability Failure Process (no Witness)
In the event of either a primary site failure (the site where the Metro storage container is currently active) or the link between the sites going offline, the Nutanix administrator is required to manually disable metro availability and promote the target storage container on the remote (or current) site to Active

2. The question says "Automatic Resume" is configured, no Witness is in the place. Promote Site B (or Failover) has to be perform manually.
