In the event of a disk failure, which process will immediately ad automatically scans Cassandra to find all data previously hosted on the failed disk, and all disks in that node?

  1. Curator
  2. Stargate
  3. Genesis
  4. Prism

Answer(s): A



An Administrator has been asked to deploy VMs using a specific image. The image has been configured with settings and applications that will be used by engineering to develop a new product by the company.

The image is not available on the desired cluster, but it is available in other cluster associated with Prism Central.

Why isno't the image available?

  1. The image bandwidth policy has prevented the image upload.
  2. The cluster should be removed from all categories.
  3. The cluster has not been added to the correct category
  4. The image placement policy was configured with enforcement.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

When a placement policy is enforced, images are only allowed to be deployed on clusters that are part of categories that are associated with the policy. If the desired cluster is not associated with the policy, then the image will not be available for deployment.

After running an LCM inventory it is noticed that there are a number of firmware and software updates available. The administrator would like to avoid any host reboots, but would like to apply some of the available updates?

Which two updates can be done while avoiding a host reboot? (Choose two.)

  1. M.2 Drives
  2. AHV
  3. Data Drives
  4. AOS

Answer(s): A,D

Explanation:

AOS and M.2 Drives are two updates that can be done while avoiding a host reboot. AOS is the Acropolis Operating System that includes the hypervisor, storage and management components of the Nutanix cluster, and firmware and software updates can also be applied to it without requiring any host reboots



An administrator is troubleshooting vDisk performance issues in a Nutanix cluster with hybrid disks.
The VMs all have Flash Mode enabled.

But users are reporting disk latency.

What could cause the performance issues?

  1. Flash mode is disabled when a node fails.
  2. Compression is disabled on the vDisk storage container.
  3. The VMs vDisks are in multiple containers.
  4. Data size for flash mode exceeds 25% of the SSD capacity.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

data size for flash mode exceeds 25% of the SSD capacity could cause the performance issues. Flash mode is a feature that allows vDisks to be pinned to SSDs for faster access, but it has a limit of 25% of the SSD capacity per node. If this limit is exceeded, some vDisks may be evicted from flash mode and cause disk latency2.



An administrator is performing validation testing of a new-deploy cluster. During this test, the administrator disconnect each LAN interface from each of the nodes while pinging the hypervisor and guest VMs.

When the first interface is disconnected, pings continue as expected to the hypervisor, but pings stop responding from the guest. Pings continue when the interface is reconnected. When the second interface is disconnected, pings continue to both the hypervisor and guest VMs.

What could be the cause of this error?

  1. This is normal behavior for a LAN Failover
  2. Switch ports are configured with different VLANs
  3. Portfast is not enabled on the switch ports
  4. One of the network interfaces has a bad patch cable.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

switch ports are configured with different VLANs could be the cause of this error. If the switch ports are not configured with the same VLANs as the network interfaces on each node, then there could be a mismatch in network connectivity when one interface is disconnected1. This could affect the guest VMs that are using a different VLAN than the hypervisor.
