When deploying vRealize Log Insight using vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager (vRSLCM), VMware Identity Manager (vIDM) is not a mandatory requirement . While vIDM can be integrated with vRealize Log Insight for authentication and single sign-on, it's not essential for the initial deployment process through vRSLCM.
Here's why the other options are incorrect:
* A. A DHCP address can be used for vRealize Log Insight worker nodes: vRealize Log Insight worker nodes require static IP addresses for proper cluster functionality and communication. DHCP addresses are not supported for worker nodes.
* C. Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) is enabled by default: FIPS mode is not enabled by default in vRealize Log Insight deployments using vRSLCM. It can be enabled if required for compliance with specific security standards.
* D. A cluster Virtual IP (VIP) address is a mandatory requirement: While a VIP address is recommended for clustered vRealize Log Insight deployments, it's not mandatory for the deployment process through vRSLCM. The integrated load balancer within the cluster can function without a VIP.
