Prism Central - Answer-:D Terminology Availability Zone - it is represented by all resources (Nutanix Clusters) connected to Prism Central or Xi Leap Availability zone. Depends on the architecture, Availability zone can represent geographic territory, datacenter or server room in the datacenter. Protection policies - in protection policies you set up (RPO, Retention), rules to auto-apply policies to virtual machines /.QUESTION: 2 Which algorithm do snapshots and clones leverage to maximize efficiency and effectiveness? A. Copy-on-Write B. Redirect-On-Write C. Continuous Data Protection D. Split-mirror - Answer-: B /.QUESTION: 3 An administrator has set up a local web server accessible to the Nutanix clusters. Which two steps are required to set up LCM for an environment without Internet access? (Choose two.) A. Download the lcai_disconnecced_version. LCM bundle from the support portal. B. Edit LCM Advanced Settings m Prism Central and enter the address of the web server. C. Download the lcm_dark_site_version. tar . gz LCM bundle from the support portal. D. Edit LCM Advanced Settings in Prism Element and enter the address of the web server. - Answer-: C and D /.QUESTION: 4 What is most likely the cause of this issue? A. The VLAN was not created on the upstream switches. B. The administrator did not created the VLAN on all hosts C. There is a firewall rule blocking VLAN512 traffic D. VLAN512 is a reserved VLAN ID, and not usable for guest VMs. - Answer-: A /.QUESTION: 5 An administrator is commissioning a Nutanix Enterprise Cloud. Once the user VMs have been deployed and are running, the administrator finds that VMs on the same host are able to communicate, but are unable to communicate between hosts. What must be changed to enable full inter-VM communications? A. Change the spanning-tree port type on the switch. B. Update the switch to specifically allow VLAN 15 C. Change the network the VMs are connected to D. The VMs need to have static IP addresses. - Answer-: B /.QUESTION: 6 A two-node ROBO cluster is configured with a witness VM. What happens when Node A goes down? A. Node B sends a leadership request to the Witness VM and goes into single-node mode. B. All operations and services on the Node B are shut down and go into a waiting state. C. The cluster is unaffected and no administrator intervention is required. D. The- cluster becomes unavailable and goes into read-only mode. - Answer-: A /.QUESTION: 7 After configuring Active Directory as the desired authentication service, an administrator is not able to login into Prism Central using privileged account. Which configuration must be checked first? A. Account lock status B. Role Mapping C. Local user account D. Cluster Lockdown - Answer-: B According to the Nutanix Community1, users can authenticate using their Active Directory credentials when Active Directory support is enabled for Prism Central. To enable Active Directory support, you need to configure Role Mapping12, which defines how Active Directory groups map to Prism Central roles. /.QUESTION: 8 What requires iSCSI initiator configuration in the guest OS to use Volumes? A. Microsoft Windows Failover Cluster B. SQL Server Always On Availability Group C. Oracle RAC D. Exchange DAG - Answer-: A /.QUESTION: 9 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 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. /.QUESTION: 10 An administrator needs to limit the amount of storage space that data stored in a 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 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. /.QUESTION: 11 Where are Leap Availability Zones configured? A. Cloud Connect B. Controller VM C. Prism Element D. Prism Central - Answer-: D Explanation Terminology * Availability Zone - it is represented by all resources (Nutanix Clusters) connected to Prism Central or Xi Leap Availability zone. Depends on the architecture, Availability zone can represent geographic territory, datacenter or server room in the datacenter. Protection policies - in protection policies you set up (RPO, Retention), rules to auto-apply policies to virtual machines /.QUESTION: 12 A customer wants to isolate a group of VMs within their Nutanix environment for security reasons. The customer creates a VM with two NICs to act as a firewall and installs the appropriate software and certificates. However, no one from the outside can access the application. What is the likely cause of this problem? A. A shared volume group must be used by all isolated VMs B. Wireshark is installed on the NAT VM C. More than one NIC cannot be added to a VM D. One of the NICs needs to be configured on the internal VLAN - Answer-: D /.QUESTION: 13 A recently configured cluster is leveraging NearSync with a recovery schedule of 15 minutes. It is noticed that the cluster is consistently transitioning in an Out of NearSyne. What action should be taken to potentially address this issue? A. Add a vCPUs to the user VMs.
