How can an administrator check the EVC mode for virtual machines during a cloud migration project?

The correct approach to check the EVC (Enhanced vMotion Compatibility) mode for virtual machines during a cloud migration project is by selecting Host, then navigating to VMs, and finally showing or hiding the column that displays the EVC mode. This method allows administrators to directly view the compatibility mode that has been configured for the VMs without executing any modifications or performing migrations.

Understanding EVC mode is crucial during migration since it ensures that VMs can be migrated across different hosts in a cluster with differing CPU architectures without compatibility issues. By checking this setting in the user interface, administrators can confirm compatibility requirements before proceeding with migration actions, thereby avoiding potential incompatibilities that might arise from differences in host CPUs.

The other options provided focus on migration procedures rather than checking the EVC mode directly. Options involving power operations or selections related to storage are irrelevant when the objective is solely to ascertain the current EVC status.
