HOTSPOT

An administrator is configuring an All Flash cluster to support the following workloads: Full clone virtual desktops Hadoop Write heavy databases

Which correct configuration options should the administrator use to meet the item requirements? For each procedure, indicate whether it is a correct or incorrect procedure that must be configured to meet the item requirements using the drop-down option.

Hot Area:

An administrator of a Nutanix Enterprise Cloud has microsegmentation enabled and a firewall VM installed. The security team notifies the administrator that one of the VMs hosted in the environment has been exhibiting suspect network activity. The administrator wants to isolate the VM from the production network, but must still be able to access it to perform diagnostics.

What should the administrator do to meet the requirement?

A. Disable the vNIC on the affected VM

B. Quarantine the VM using the Forensic Method

C. Create a firewall rule that blocks VM traffic but permits diagnostic access

D. Create a security policy with a service chain directing that VMs traffic to the firewall

An administrator has an existing Nutanix seven-node cluster running at RF2 that must be changed to have the following capabilities: RF3 set for the cluster Performance tier deduplication

What is the minimum memory needed on the CVMs to allow for these capabilities?

A. 24GB

B. 28GB

C. 32GB

D. 20GB

An administrator is deploying a three-tier application on a Nutanix Enterprise Cloud consisting of web, application, and database VMs. Traffic between the servers must be limited to specific services/ports.

There is an application layer firewall VM deployed on one host in the cluster.

In which way should the administrator meet this requirement?

A. Create a network for each type of VM, and use policy-based routing to control the traffic flow

B. Configure a security policy and service chain redirecting the server traffic through the firewall

C. Separate the web application and database VMs on to dedicated VLANs

D. Categorize the VMs in Prism Central and utilize Flow to set a security policy

A three-node cluster has a Nutanix Files instance with three FSVMs. What happens after a node failure?

A. The affected FSVM will get live-migrated to another node.

B. The affected FSVM will not be restarted on another node due to its agent VM setting.

C. The affected FSVM will not be restarted on another node due to its VM-to-VM anti-affinity settings.

D. The affected FSVM will be restarted on another node.

An administrator is performing a set of routine checks and notes that Prism Central is running with 4 vCPUs and 21 GB RAM. The organizations environment is based on two Nutanix clusters with 170 VMs plus a Legacy vSphere infrastructure. No manual changes have been done on Prism Central VM.

Which configuration justifies the current Prism Central configuration?

A. Nutanix Move is running on Prism Central to import VMs from the Legacy Cluster.

B. Prism Central was installed for Large Deployment environments.

C. Prism Central is running on the legacy cluster and requires more RAM.

D. Nutanix Leap and Nutanix Flow have been enabled on Prism Central

An administrator needs to evaluate if the existing configuration of Protection Domains meets the specified corporate recovery policy for SQL Data. The corporate policy requires that all SQL Servers be recoverable at the DR site within 30 minutes, and must result in a maximum of 60 minutes of data loss. SQL data must be required.

The protection domain is configured as follows: Application consistent snapshots are enabled The SQL server VMs are assigned to the Protection Domain as their own Consistency Group The Protection Domain schedule is configured as snapshots taken every 90 minutes from 7 am until 8 pm

What must be changed to meet the required policy?

A. Revise the schedule to be 15 minutes

B. Revise the schedule to be 60 minutes

C. Revise the schedule to be 30 minutes

D. Revise the schedule to be 45 minutes

A Nutanix cluster is deployed with the following configuration:

Three four-node blocks (A, B, and C)

All Flash Redundancy Factor 2

What is the effect of simultaneous disk failures on two nodes located in block A?

A. VMs are migrated of the nodes with disk failures.

B. Each node with a failed disk is marked as degraded.

C. VM read and write operations continue normally.

D. VMs on the nodes with failed disks are unable to write data

A customer has Metro Availability configured in Automatic Resume Mode between Site A and Site B.

What happens to VMs if Primary Site A has full network failure?

A. Automatic protection domain promotion in Site B. VMs automatically restart in Site

B. VMs continue to run on Site A following an automatic disable of protection domains.

C. An administrator must unwitness in Site B and promote protection domains in Site B for VMs to restart

D. An administrator must promote protection domains in Site B for VMs to restart.

A customer has NearSync configured. When the administrator tries to restore a snapshot from 3 minutes ago, it is not available. The snapshots are happening at 15-minute intervals instead of at the 5-minute configured interval. When the protection domain was initially set up, the snapshots were happening at the expected 5-minute interval.

What should the customer do to enable the snapshots to happen at the expected interval?

A. Utilize Metro Availability to meet this requirement

B. Change the protection domain to use Async DR

C. Fix a connectivity issue because the protection domain reverted to Async

D. Configure the protection domain to take snapshots on 15-minute intervals
