Q81. An administrator needs to recover disk space on a previously-used thin provisioned virtual disk. The volumes
where the administrator needs to recover the disk blocks are on VAAI-compliant storage arrays.
Which two actions should the administrator take accomplish this task? (Choose two.)

all unused space.
