An administrator is reviewing performance of a core banking system that routinely has 20,000 concurrent users. During, business hours, the CPU on the applications servers runs at close to 100%. The administrator needs to determine if there is a performance issue specific to the app servers, the database servers, or all servers on the cluster.

Which metrics should the administrator review in Prism Analysis Graphs?

A. Cluster IO, Network, Database and App Server CPU

B. Cluster CPU and Memory Only

C. Cluster IO, CPU, Memory and Database and App Server CPU

D. Cluster IO, CPU, Memory, Network, App Server CPU

An administrator has a Custom backup application that requires a 2TB disk and runs m Windows. Throughput is considerably lower than expected. The application was installed on a VM with the following configuration:

1.

FOU vCPUs with one core/vCPU

2.

4GB of Memory

3.

One 50GB vDisk for the Windows installation

4.

One 2TB vDisk for the application

What is the recommended configuration change to improve throughput?

A. Add 4GB of memory to the VM

B. Increase the vCPUs assigned to the VM

C. Span the 2TB disk across four vDisks

D. Increase the number of cores per vCPU

A. Deduplication

B. Post-process Compression

C. Erasure Coding

D. Inline Compression

An administrator is preparing to migrate VMs from a legacy ESXi cluster to a new AHV cluster.

Which action must be the administrator perform on the AHV cluster to migrate VM data?

A. Install the Nutanix Virt0 drivers

B. Whitelist the ESXi cluster IP address

C. Create placeholder VMs

D. Install Nutanix Self servicing restore.

An administrator manages a 4-block 16 node Nutanix cluster. One block experiences a Power Delivery Unit (PDU) failure. All nodes in that block power off. VMs on the affected nodes restart as expected. The cluster continues normal operation until power is restored.

Which Nutanix feature is responsible for maintaining operations in this scenario?

A. IO Redirection

B. Block Awareness

C. Async Disaster Recovery

D. Nutanix App Mobility Fabric
