A physical Linux file server needs to be migrated to VMware ESXi. The server has several volumes: /dev/sda (60GB), /dev/sdb (1TB) and /dev/sdc (4TB). What is the quickest option to migrate the server?
A.
Export all disks, create an empty VM and attach the disks.
B.
Create an empty VM and perform bare metal recovery inside the VM.
In production that can vary, I encountered this scenario, instant recovery is the quickest but if you need to merge back it's slower than just a restore but it's also online first and the question doesn't have that consideration
