Explanation
For a successful vMotion migration from the on-premises data center to VMware Cloud on AWS software-defined data center (SDDC), the following requirements need to be met: B. A Layer 2 connection is configured between the on-premises data center and the cloud SDDC. This is because vMotion between on-premises and VMware Cloud on AWS requires the VM to retain its IP address, so a Layer 2 connection is needed. E. Cluster-level Enhanced vMotion Compatibility (EVC) is configured in the on-premises data center and the cloud SDDC. EVC ensures that VMs remain compatible with the hosts in both the source and target locations. This means even if there are CPU discrepancies between on-premises and VMware Cloud on AWS hosts, VMs can still be migrated without issues.
