Nutanix NCP-MCI Nutanix Certified Professional - Multicloud Infrastructure v6.5 Exam Practice Test

Answer : A, C

The issue described pertains to the inability to ping the IPMI IPs after moving the IPMI network links to the actual switches with specific VLAN configurations. The two changes that the administrator needs to make are:

A . SSH to AHV and set the VLAN ID using IPMI Tool: Since all VLANs are tagged in the new network configuration, the IPMI network interface needs to be aware of the VLAN it's supposed to communicate on. This can be achieved by setting the VLAN ID using the IPMI Tool on the AHV.

C . SSH to AHV and change the IP address using IPMI tool: If the IPMI IP addresses were initially set in a different subnet that is not routable in the new network configuration, the administrator would need to change the IPMI IP addresses to match the new network configuration. This can be done by SSHing to the AHV and using the IPMI Tool to change the IP address.

Answer : B

The only option that requires iSCSI initiator configuration in the guest OS to use Volumes is Microsoft Windows Failover Cluster.Volumes is an enterprise-class, software-defined block storage solution that exposes storage resources directly to virtualized guest operating systems or physical hosts using the iSCSI protocol7. To use Volumes, customers need to configure iSCSI initiators on their hosts or guest OSes. However, some applications or services can use native storage adapters instead of iSCSI initiators when running on AHV VMs. These include:

SQL Server Always On Availability Group: This is a high availability and disaster recovery solution for SQL Server databases that uses Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC) and Availability Groups (AGs) as its core components. When running on AHV VMs, SQL Server Always On Availability Group can use native storage adapters instead of iSCSI initiators.

Oracle RAC: This is a clustered database system that provides high availability and scalability for Oracle databases. When running on AHV VMs, Oracle RAC can use native storage adapters instead of iSCSI initiators.

Exchange DAG: This is a group of up to 16 mailbox servers that hosts a set of databases and provides automatic database-level recovery from failures that affect individual servers or databases. When running on AHV VMs, Exchange DAG can use native storage adapters instead of iSCSI initiators.

Answer : B

The number of Prism Central instances required to deploy Leap is one per customer environment.Prism Central is a multi-cluster manager that provides a single, centralized management interface for Nutanix environments3.Leap is a native cloud extension that provides disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) for Nutanix environments4.To use Leap, customers need to have one Prism Central instance deployed in their primary site, and register it with their Xi Cloud Services account5.This Prism Central instance can manage multiple Nutanix clusters across different physical sites or availability zones6.

Answer : B

The best way to fix this issue is to increase the amount of memory assigned to the VM from the Prism web console. This option allows the administrator to modify the VM configuration without accessing the CVM or shutting down the VM.The Prism web console provides a simple and intuitive interface for managing Nutanix clusters and VMs1.To change the memory allocation for a VM, the administrator can follow these steps2:

Go to the VM dashboard

Select the VM from the VMs list

Choose Update

Adjust the amount of memory assigned to the VM

Click Save

Answer : A, B, C

These are the three steps that the administrator must take to increase throughput to the host. According to the network diagram, the host has two 10Gb interfaces and two 1Gb interfaces in the default bond, but only one of the 10Gb interfaces is connected to a switch. The other 10Gb interface is disconnected and has a red ''X'' on it. The two 1Gb interfaces are also disconnected and have dotted lines. This means that the host is using only one 10Gb interface for all its network traffic, which limits its maximum bandwidth to 10 Gbps.

To increase the throughput, the administrator should connect both 10Gb interfaces to the physical switch, preferably to different switches for redundancy and high availability. This will allow the host to use both 10Gb interfaces for network traffic, which can increase its maximum bandwidth to 20 Gbps.However, this also requires changing the bond mode from active-backup to balance-slb or balance-tcp, which are load balancing modes that distribute network traffic across multiple interfaces based on source MAC address or TCP session1.The default bond mode of active-backup only uses one interface at a time and switches to another interface only when the active one fails2.

Finally, the administrator should remove any 1Gb interfaces still connected from the default bond, as they are not needed and may cause performance issues or conflicts with the load balancing modes.The 1Gb interfaces can be used for other purposes, such as management or backup networks, by creating separate bonds or bridges for them3. Alternatively, they can be left disconnected if they are not required.

Answer : B

According to the web search results, a consistency group is a group of related applications or services that must be recovered together in order to work properly, and this means more than being recovered at the same time67.They also typically need to be recovered to the same point in time6.Therefore, to meet the requirement of protecting all VMs of a multi-tier application at the same time, the administrator must create a consistency group for the application and place all VMs in it8.This way, the administrator can apply data protection policies and schedules to the entire consistency group as a single unit8.
