  What is the minimum number of nodes required in a cluster for enabling Erasure Coding?

  A. 1
  B. 3
  C. 4
  D. 8
  C. 4

  ---

  Explanation

  4 is the appropriate focus because Erasure coding requires at least four nodes so the system has enough placement locations for data and parity. 4 maps the scenario to virtual networking design, which is the boundary that determines where the administrator should act in a Nutanix environment. 4 keeps the operation in a supported path with predictable cluster behavior when multiple nodes, services, workloads, or management views are involved. 4 should be remembered as a functional match: identify the requested outcome, then choose the Nutanix component that owns that outcome.

  1 can matter in a different workflow, while 4 is tied to the outcome requested here. 3 is a neighboring term, but 4 carries the responsibility that satisfies the requirement. 8 should be ruled out because the behavior under discussion belongs to 4. 4 is also a useful study anchor because it links the scenario wording to a real administrative action instead of to a term that only shares the same general topic.
