Which service enables the monitoring of key metrics on various AWS services, inducing EC2, EBS, and VPC for an NC2 cluster deployments?

  1. Amazon CloudWatch
  2. AWS CloudTrail
  3. AWS CloudFormation
  4. Amazon inspector

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Amazon CloudWatch is the service that enables the monitoring of key metrics on various AWS services, including EC2, EBS, and VPC, for NC2 cluster deployments.
Amazon CloudWatch:
Amazon CloudWatch provides monitoring for AWS cloud resources and applications. It collects and tracks metrics, collects and monitors log files, and sets alarms. Specifically, for NC2 deployments, CloudWatch can be used to monitor key metrics such as CPU utilization, disk I/O, network I/O for EC2 instances, EBS volume performance, and VPC network traffic.
Features:
Metrics Monitoring: Collects and visualizes operational data in the form of metrics, including utilization, performance, and health.
Logs Monitoring: Collects log data, monitors it in real-time, and triggers alarms based on predefined thresholds.
Alarms: Notifies when operational performance thresholds are breached.
Integration with NC2:
By setting up CloudWatch, administrators can ensure they have visibility into the performance and health of their Nutanix clusters on AWS, aiding in proactive management and troubleshooting.

An administrator needs the permissions to create and manage multiple organizations and clusters in NC2, as well as manage user access for the entire company.
What role should be assigned to meet the minimum requirements of this task?

  1. Organization Administrator
  2. Customer Administrator
  3. Customer Security Administrator
  4. Cluster Administrator

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The role of "Customer Administrator" in Nutanix Cloud Integration with AWS (NC2) is designed to meet the requirements of creating and managing multiple organizations and clusters, as well as managing user access for the entire company.
Roles and Permissions:
Customer Administrator: This role has the broadest set of permissions, allowing the user to create and manage organizations, clusters, and user access across the entire company. It encompasses administrative control over multiple aspects of the NC2 environment.
Capabilities:
Organization Management: Ability to create and manage multiple organizations. Cluster Management: Full control over creating, configuring, and managing clusters. User Access Management: Manage user roles and permissions, ensuring that the right individuals have access to the necessary resources.
Why Not Other Roles:
Organization Administrator: Limited to managing organizations but not clusters and user access at the company level.
Customer Security Administrator: Focuses on security aspects, lacking broader administrative capabilities.
Cluster Administrator: Limited to managing clusters without the ability to manage organizations and user access comprehensively.

An administrator needs to create user VM subnets for multiple NC2 clusters in AWS.
What would be the best approach to take?

  1. Create guest-VM VNets for each cluster.
  2. Use the cluster management subnet dedicated to each cluster.
  3. Create guest-VM subnets to be shared by all clusters.
  4. Create guest-VM subnets for each cluster.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

When creating user VM subnets for multiple NC2 clusters in AWS, the best approach is to create guest-VM subnets for each cluster. This ensures that each cluster has its own dedicated subnets, which simplifies network management and avoids potential IP conflicts.
Advantages of Dedicated Subnets:
Isolation: Each cluster operates in its own subnet, providing better isolation and security. Management: Easier to manage and troubleshoot network issues when each cluster has its own subnets.
Scalability: More scalable as each subnet can be managed and expanded independently.
Steps to Create Guest-VM Subnets:
Identify the IP range for each subnet.
In the AWS VPC console, create a new subnet for each cluster using the identified IP ranges. Associate the new subnets with the respective clusters during or after the cluster deployment process.
Why Not Shared Subnets:
Shared subnets could lead to IP conflicts and make network management more complex, especially as the number of clusters grows.

An administrator has been tasked with deploying an NC2 cluster on AWS with the requirement to protect workloads.
Which two options are valid to protect the workloads on this cluster? (Choose two.)

  1. Deploy one-node cluster in another availability zone.
  2. Create a second NCZ cluster in a different availability zone.
  3. Use an existing on-prem Nutanix cluster as a disaster recovery target.
  4. Deploy a cluster across two availability zones.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

To protect workloads on an NC2 cluster on AWS, deploying strategies that ensure high availability and disaster recovery are essential. The two valid options are:
Create a Second NC2 Cluster in a Different Availability Zone:
High Availability: Deploying a second NC2 cluster in a different availability zone ensures that workloads can be quickly recovered in case of an availability zone failure. Disaster Recovery: This setup enables asynchronous replication between clusters, providing a robust disaster recovery solution.
Use an Existing On-Prem Nutanix Cluster as a Disaster Recovery Target:
Hybrid DR: Leveraging an existing on-premises Nutanix cluster for disaster recovery provides a cost- effective and efficient DR solution.
Replication: Set up replication policies to ensure data is consistently copied from the NC2 cluster on

AWS to the on-premises cluster.
Why Not Other Options:
One-node cluster in another availability zone: Not a valid DR solution as a single-node cluster cannot provide the required resilience and high availability. Deploy a cluster across two availability zones: While this can enhance availability, it is not a typical approach for Nutanix clusters which are designed to operate within a single availability zone for simplicity and performance reasons.

Exhibit.



An administrator is attempting, but failing to create an NC2 cluster in AWS. The administrator checks the configuration in the NC and notices the configuration shown in the exhibit.
What action should the administrator take to resolve the issue?

  1. Recreate the AWS CloudFormation stack.
  2. Create a new cloud account in the organization.
  3. Restart Genesis on a Prism Central instance.
  4. Grant the administrator's account access to the NC2 organization.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The exhibit shows two cloud accounts, one for Azure and one for AWS, with their statuses indicated. The AWS cloud account status is marked as "U" (which likely stands for "Unavailable" or "Unreachable"). This indicates that the AWS cloud account configuration is not properly connected or accessible.

Status Check:
The AWS cloud account is marked with an "U" status, meaning it is not active or accessible. This status prevents the creation of an NC2 cluster because the necessary cloud resources cannot be allocated or managed without a proper connection.
Action:
The best course of action is to create a new cloud account in the organization. This involves setting up the cloud account details correctly and ensuring it is properly configured to communicate with Nutanix and AWS.
Steps to Create a New Cloud Account:
Log in to the Nutanix console.
Navigate to the "Organizations" section.

Select "Add Cloud Account" and provide the required AWS credentials and permissions. Ensure the new cloud account is active and correctly configured.
