Correct Answer: A
Option A is the correct action that accomplishes the objective. Setting the pinning max-links value to 8 ensures that all host ports are distributed across all eight configured FEX uplinks, providing optimal bandwidth utilization and redundancy. If an uplink fails, this configuration minimizes disruption by automatically redistributing host ports among the remaining active uplinks. References:
