An administrator receives an alert in Prism indicating that interface eth2, on an AHV host is receiving many CRC errors. After togging into the problematic host, the following command is run to show the indicated output:

What is causing this issue?

  1. Incorrect link speeds on the switch
  2. The interface is incorrectly configured with Jumbo Frames
  3. A misconfigured bond
  4. A physical layer network problem

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

rx_crc_errors are caused either by faults in layer 1 (in the past, we have seen failed twinax cables and incorrect types of fibre being used), or issues with jumbo frames on the network. In an environment with 10 Gig switches that use cut-through forwarding (Cisco Nexus, Arista, Cisco devices using IOS default to Store and Forward switching), any packets that come into the switch will get forwarded out the destination interface once the switch has read the destination MAC address. If that packet has an MTU over what is configured on the interface, it will cut off the packet at the designated MTU, causing the server to receive a malformed packet, which will throw a CRC error. If you have a layer 1 issue, you will see rx_crc_errors, not on all but one or two nodes.



An administrator deletes a large amount of data from a Volume Group presented to a Linux VM. The administrator notices that the deleted data has not been reclaimed as usable storage.

An administrator needs to deploy an application with a large amount of data connected via Nutanix Volumes. Which two actions should the administrator take when designing the Volume Group? (Choose two.)

  1. Use multiple subnets for iSCSI traffic
  2. Enable RSS (Receive Side Scaling)

  4. Distribute workload across multiple virtual disks

Answer(s): B,D

Explanation:



Microsegmentation was recently enabled in a Nutanix environment. The administrator wants to leverage Prism Central to create a policy that will block all traffic, regardless of direction, between two groups of VMs identified by their category.
Which policy should be used to meet this requirement?

  1. A Quarantine Policy
  2. An Isolation Environment Policy
  3. An Application Security Policy
  4. A Whitehst-Based Policy
