1.An administrator wants to receive an environment summary report when a host failure
occurs.
Which action would address the administrator's need?
A. Enable App Discovery
B. Edit report schedule
C. Configure an alert policy
D. Create a playbook - Answer-C
Explanation:
An alert policy can be configured to send out an environment summary report when a
host failure occurs.
This can be done by creating a policy that triggers an alert whenever a host fails and
then configuring the
policy to send out a report that provides a summary of the environment in which the
failure occurred. This
will allow the administrator to quickly get a view of the environment after a failure
occurs, allowing them to
take the necessary steps to address the issue.
2.An administrator has been notified by a user that a Microsoft SQL Server instance is
not performing
well.
When reviewing the utilization metrics, the following concerns are noted:
Memory consumption has been above 95% for several months
Memory consumption has been spiking to 100% for the last five days
Storage latency is 2ms.
When logging into Prism Central, how could the administrator quickly verify if this VM
has performance
bottlenecks?
A. See Capacity Runway.
B. Filter VM by Efficiency.
C. Update Capacity Configurations.
D. Perform Entity Sync - Answer-A
Explanation:
The Capacity Runway is a feature in Prism Central, the management console for
Nutanix clusters, that
allows administrators to quickly view VM performance and utilization. By viewing the
Capacity Runway,
the administrator can quickly see if the VM is experiencing any performance
bottlenecks, such as high
memory consumption or latency. The Capacity Runway also allows the administrator to
view the
,utilization of other resources, such as CPU, network, and storage, and to identify any
other potential
bottlenecks that may be impacting the performance of the VM.
3.Which Nutanix service control ncli, the HTML5 UI, and Rest API?
A. Prism
B. Cassandra
C. Zookeeper
D. Chronos - Answer-A
Explanation:
Prism is the central service control used by Nutanix to manage the clusters. It provides
a unified view of
the entire system, and it is used to control the HTML5 UI, the nCLI, and the REST API.
Prism is used to manage the resources of the system, such as the nodes, storage, and
networks, as well as to monitor the
performance of the system and the applications running on it.
4.On a Nutanix cluster, what does Network Segmentation refer to?
A. A distributed firewall for security VM to VM traffic.
B. Physically separating management traffic from guest VM traffic.
C. Isolating intra-cluster traffic from guest VM traffic.
D. Isolating management traffic from storage replication traffic. - Answer-D
5.An administrator has an AHV cluster that is comprised of 4 nodes with the following
configuration in
each node:
CPU:2 each 2.4GHz, 12 core
Memory: 256GB
Disk: 6 each 1.92 SSD
A VM with 16 vCPUs and 96GB of RAM is being created on the cluster.
How should the administrator configure the VM to assure optimal performance?
A. With an affinity policy
B. With memory overcommit
C. With 2 vNUMA nodes
D. With Flash Mode enabled - Answer-C
Explanation:
The best way to configure the VM for optimal performance is to set it up with 2 vNUMA
nodes. This will
ensure that the VM is configured to take advantage of the CPU and memory resources
available in each
node, and it will also ensure that all of the cores are utilized for the best performance.
Additionally, the
administrator should ensure that the VM has an affinity policy set up so that the vCPUs
are evenly
distributed across the four nodes. Finally, Flash Mode should be enabled in order to
take advantage of the
,high-performance SSDs that are available in the cluster
6.An administrator needs to limit the amount of storage space that data stored in single
container can
consume.
Which action should the administrator take?
A. Enable reservation for rebuild capacity
B. Set an advertised capacity for the container
C. Store VM snapshots in a different container
D. Thick prevision the container - Answer-B
Explanation:
The best way for the administrator to limit the amount of storage space that data stored
in a single
container can consume is to set an advertised capacity for the container. This will
ensure that the data
stored in the container doesn't exceed the set limit, and it will also help prevent any
potential performance
issues due to resource contention. Additionally, the administrator should consider thick
provisioning the
container, which will pre-allocate the amount of storage space that can be used by the
container. This will help ensure that the data stored in the container doesn't exceed the
advertised capacity.
7.An administrator needs to configure Prism to send encrypted messages to a set of
recipients.
Which setting must be applied?
A. Use SMTP Port 25
B. Configure Prism Central to use Cluster Lockdown
C. Install SSL certificates on Prism Central
D. Set SMTP Security Mode to STARTTLS - Answer-D
Explanation:
The best way for the administrator to configure Prism to send encrypted messages to a
set of recipients is
to set the SMTP Security Mode to STARTTLS. This will ensure that all messages sent
over SMTP are
encrypted and secure. Additionally, the administrator should consider installing SSL
certificates on Prism
Central to ensure that the messages are being sent securely. Finally, the administrator
should consider
configuring Prism Central to use Cluster Lockdown, which will help ensure that the
messages are only
sent to the intended recipients.
8.Which two permission assignment tasks can be accomplished via Prism Element?
(Choose two.)
A. Grant a user permission to create VMs on a specific storage container
, B. Grant a user permission to view details of all VMs on a specific cluster
C. Grant an active directory group permission to perform back operations
D. Grant a user permission to create and delete snapshots on a specific VM - Answer-
AD
Explanation:
The two permission assignment tasks that can be accomplished via Prism Element are
A. Grant a user permission to create VMs on a specific storage container and
D. Grant a user permission to create and delete snapshots on a specific VM. With Prism
Element,
administrators can assign permissions to users and groups on a per-cluster, per-VM, or
per-storage
container basis. This allows them to control who can access which resources and
perform which
operations.
9.In the event of a disk failure, which process will immediately ad automatically scans
Cassandra to find
all data previously hosted on the failed disk, and all disks in that node?
A. Curator
B. Stargate
C. Genesis
D. Prism - Answer-A
10.An Administrator has been asked to deploy VMs using a specific image. The image
has been
configured with settings and applications that will be used by engineering to develop a
new product by the
company.
The image is not available on the desired cluster, but it is available in other cluster
associated with Prism
Central.
Why isno't the image available?
A. The image bandwidth policy has prevented the image upload.
B. The cluster should be removed from all categories.
C. The cluster has not been added to the correct category
D. The image placement policy was configured with enforcement. - Answer-D
Explanation:
When a placement policy is enforced, images are only allowed to be deployed on
clusters that are part of
categories that are associated with the policy. If the desired cluster is not associated
with the policy, then
the image will not be available for deployment.
11.After running an LCM inventory it is noticed that there are a number of firmware and
software updates
available.
