A vSAN administrator was presented with 30 additional vSAN ReadyNodes to add to an existing vSAN cluster. There is only one administrator to complete this task.
What is the fastest approach?

What is the fastest approach?
Using a Host Profile extracted from an existing host is the fastest approach to add multiple hosts to a vSAN cluster. This method allows for the application of configurations including storage, network, and other host characteristics across all new hosts in a bulk manner. This is particularly efficient for large numbers of hosts, such as the 30 additional vSAN ReadyNodes mentioned.
I think Quick start is correct.
A Configuring Hosts Using Host Profile When you have multiple hosts in the vSAN cluster, you can use the profile of an existing vSAN host to configure the rest of the hosts in the vSAN cluster. The host profile includes information about storage configuration, network configuration, and other characteristics of the host. If you are planning to create a cluster with many hosts, such as 8, 16, 32, or 64 hosts, use the host profile feature. Host profiles enable you to add more than one host at a time to the vSAN cluster. Prerequisites n Verify that the host is in maintenance mode. n Verify that the hardware components, drivers, firmware, and storage I/O controllers are listed in the VMware Compatibility Guide at http://www.vmware.com/resources/compatibility/ search.php.
I think, Answer: D Because in the question I see "to add to..." rather than the hosts configuration already in existing vSAN cluster.
D. Launch Quickstart to Add Hosts to a vSAN Cluster the question is add host not configure host. Use a host profile to configure all host added is the next step.
they both worrk but host profiles is more work. it doesnt help that it doesnt say if the cluster was created with quickstart

When you have multiple hosts in the vSAN cluster, you can use the profile of an existing vSAN host to configure the rest of the hosts in the vSAN cluster. The host profile includes information about storage configuration, network configuration, and other characteristics of the host.

Host profiles enable you to add more than one host at a time to the vSAN cluster.
The Quickstart workflow is designed for new clusters. When you upgrade an existing vSAN cluster to 6.7 Update 1 or later, the Quickstart workflow appears. Skip the Quickstart workflow and continue to manage the cluster through vCenter Server. If you are planning to create a cluster with many hosts, such as 8, 16, 32, or 64 hosts, use the host profile feature. Host profiles enable you to add more than one host at a time to the vSAN cluster.
For multiple hosts, you can use Host Profile. Answer is A.
Host profile is the best way in this option for quick configuration Answer is A
When you have multiple hosts in the vSAN cluster, you can use the profile of an existing vSAN host to configure the rest of the hosts in the vSAN cluster.
Should be A

Answer: A Page 31 of the very same Guide
the correct is D. we need add to a created cluster, no create a new cluster In the same document Page 29, quickstart "you can use the Quickstart workflow to add hosts and storage devices to the cluster" page 31, host profile " If you are planning to create a cluster.......use host profile"
