it's B, because when you set up the MC, you actually add the CM and it gives you the indexers information..

B, if the MC is joined to the cluster, the new indexers will appear in the MC but they will not appear in any of the MC dashboards until you go to settings and apply the changes. You should have done this in the Core Implementation labs, if you didnt, you missed points.

A is correct. For adding or deleting clustered IDXs, the information is automatically updated with information from the CM.For non-IDX nodes, you will need to add them manually.
