An administrator wants to create a trunked interface on a VM on AOS 5.10x. Which two steps should the administrator take first to achieve this? (Choose two)

  1. Use acli
  2. Log in over PE web UI.
  3. SSH to CVM.
  4. Update VM dialog.

Answer(s): A,D



A new Nutanix node includes Which license by default?

  1. Pro
  2. Ultimate
  3. Prism Pro
  4. Starter

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Each Nutanix node and block is delivered with a default Starter license, which does not expire. You are not required to register this license on the Nutanix Customer Portal account assigned to you when you purchased your nodes. These licenses are automatically applied whenever you create a cluster, including after you have destroyed a cluster. You do not need to reclaim Starter licenses in this case.

A VM in a 12-node Nutanix cluster is hosting an application that has specific Physical GPU
requirements. Only three nodes in the cluster meet this requirement. The administrator wants to allow a general workload to be distributed across all nodes in the cluster and must make sure that the node hosting the VM meets its requirements.
How should the administrator perform this task?

  1. Create a sperate three-node cluster using the nodes that meet the requirement.
  2. Configure VM-Host affinity for the nodes that meet the application's GPU requirement.
  3. Over-Provision the application VM with additional virtual GPUs.
  4. Configure anti-affinity rules between the application VM and the other VMs running on the cluster.

Answer(s): D



An administrator is reviewing performance of a core banking system that routinely has 20,000 concurrent users. During, business hours, the CPU on the applications servers runs at close to 100%. The administrator needs to determine if there is a performance issue specific to the app servers, the database servers, or all servers on the cluster.



Which metrics should the administrator review in Prism Analysis Graphs?

  1. Cluster IO, Network, Database and App Server CPU
  2. Cluster CPU and Memory Only
  3. Cluster IO, CPU, Memory and Database and App Server CPU
  4. Cluster IO, CPU, Memory, Network, App Server CPU

Answer(s): C



CPU utilization climbs above 90% on several VMs. This causes performance degradation for a business-critical application.
How can alerts be configured to notify the administrator before VM CPU utilization hits 90%?

  1. On a CVM, use ncli to set the VM CPU Check threshold for the critical VMs to a value below 90%.
  2. On the Health dashboard, locate the VM CPU Check and lower the alert threshold below 90%.
  3. On a CVM, configure a cron job to run the VM CPU Check more frequently and email the result.
  4. On the Alerts dashboard, ensure that the VM CPU usage alert is not set to auto-resolve.
