  2. Question 2

    An administrator needs to create and start five new VMs for a Data Analytics Project (OLAP). The VM Profile is as follows:

    Each of the four nodes of the Nutanix cluster has the following:

    At cluster level, there is a single RF2 container that is 30% utilized and has an extent store capacity of 13.5 TB.

    Which component requires administrator attention?

    Correct answer: A

    A

  3. Question 3Select 2

    An administrator manages the following two Nutanix AOS 5.15 cluster environment:

    Corp-cluster-01

    Corp-cluster-02

    The VM images must be available only on Corp-cluster-01, but cannot be checked out to cluster Corp-cluster-02. The images also cannot be checked out to any other clusters that are registered with Prism Central in the future.

    Which two configuration settings must the administrator choose when creating the image placement policy that satisfies the stated requirements? (Choose two.)

  4. Question 4

    An administrator is supporting a business critical environment and deploys metro availability to achieve a zero data loss configuration. The two clusters are connected by a 1GbE connection. A new workload is going to be deployed to this cluster. This workload requires a sustained 150MB/s of write throughput and 20MB/s of read throughput.

    Which change must be made to deploy the workload successfully on this cluster?

  6. Question 6

    An organization is planning an upgrade to AOS 5.15 and wants to understand which cluster products and/or services are supported for physical traffic isolation.

    Which Nutanix component supports its network traffic being isolated onto its own virtual network?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: A

    A

  7. Question 7

    An administrator is planning to deploy a Nutanix cluster to support a few high-performance VMs.

    This deployment will have the following considerations:

    Individual VMs will likely generate network throughputs in the range of 90-100Mbps

    Due to the configuration of the VMs, it is unlikely that a node will host more than one or two of them at a time

    Individual VMs will communicate with only a few (one or two) remote hosts at a time

    Multicast will not be used in the environment

    The hosts are connected via two 1GbE network connections

    How should the administrator configure the network bonds to meet this requirement while maintaining the simplest switch configuration?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: A

    A

  8. Question 8

    An administrator configures authentication in Prism Central (PC) for the NTNX-Admins group. Users report that they are unable to log in. The administrator confirms that the Active Directory (AD) settings in PC are correct.

    Which condition could result in this behavior?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: B

    B

  9. Question 9

    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?

    Show answer & explanation

    Correct answer: B

    Explanation: Controller VMs must be configured with a minimum of 28 GB (20 GB default + 8 GB for the feature) of memory. -- Reference: https://next.nutanix.com/how-it-works-22/rf2-rf3-requirements-37206
