An administrator needs to migrate workloads from a Nutanix cluster running VMware ESXi to Nutanix AHV. The migration process needs to be completed in multiple VM groups and support roll back in case any problems are found during user acceptance testing.
Which action should the administrator perform?
- A . Use Cross Hypervisor DR to replicate VMs from ESXi to AHV
- B . Use VMware Converter
- C . Use Nutanix one-click cluster conversion from ESXi to AHV
- D . Use storage live migration
An administrator needs to expand a cluster based on AHV and running on Nutanix G5 hardware with a new Nutanix G7 system. The cluster is running AOS 5.10 but the operation fails when expanding the cluster. AOS is running on the new system. There are no issues discovering the node.
Why is the operation failing?
- A . AOS version running on G7 is older than the version on the cluster.
- B . Foundation software has not been updated on the cluster.
- C . G7 hardware cannot be added to a G5 cluster.
- D . EVC needs to be configured before cluster expansion
Refer to the exhibit.
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 network the VMs are connected to
- B . Change the spanning-tree port type on the switch
- C . The VMs need to have static IP addresses
- D . Update the switch to specifically allow VLAN 15
An administrator is deploying Nutanix Files 3.5 and needs to configure the sizing of the FSVMs for an increased number of concurrent SMB connections over the default 750.
What should the administrator do?
- A . Deploy the Files VMs. power down the three FSVMs. change the CPU and RAM via Prism, and then power the three FSVMs back up
- B . During installation, click Customize on the File Server Installation screen, change the number of connections, and finish the installation
- C . Complete the default installation change the CPU and RAM m Prism, and then log into the File Server dashboard and change the Filer Server Properties
- D . During installation, input the correct number of connections in the File Server Installation screen and complete the installation
An administrator receives a notification that storage in a Nutanix cluster is unavailable. The cluster consists of five nodes and is configured with a Fault-Tolerance level of 1 (FT-1).
Upon investigation, the administrator finds the following:
• All AHV hosts are powered on and the CVMs are running
• Nodes A, B, and C are connected to one top of rack switch
• Nodes D and E are connected to a second top of rack switch
• The cluster status command run on Node A shows that CVM services on nodes D and E are down.
Which issue is causing the storage outage?
- A . The default gateway for the CVMs and AHV hosts is down.
- B . The switch connecting Nodes D and E is down.
- C . The genesis process is down on both Nodes D and E.
- D . Nodes D and E are in maintenance mode.
Refer to the exhibit.
An administrator notices a critical alert on the Metro Availability Protection Domain.
What is causing this alert?
- A . Metro Availability Protection domain is active on the remote site.
- B . VMware Site Recovery Manager is handling a failover event
- C . Metro Availability did not fail over and caused an outage.
- D . vSphere moved VMs to the remote container, and the VMs must be moved back.
An organization is planning an upgrade to AOS 5.15 and wants to understand which cluster products and/or services are supported for physical traffic isolation.
Which Nutanix component supports its network traffic being isolated onto its own virtual network?
- A . Volumes
- B . Objects
- C . Containers
- D . Files
An administrator is planning to deploy a Nutanix cluster to support a few high-performance VMs.
This deployment will have the following considerations:
• Individual VMs will likely generate network throughputs in the range of 90-100Mbps
• Due to the configuration of the VMs, it is unlikely that a node will host more than one or two of them at a time
• Individual VMs will communicate with only a few (one or two) remote hosts at a time
• Multicast will not be used in the environment
• The hosts are connected via two 1GbE network connections
How should the administrator configure the network bonds to meet this requirement while maintaining the simplest switch configuration?
- A . Configure bond0 as balance-sib
- B . Configure bond0 as active-backup
- C . Configure bond0 as balance-tcp
- D . Configure bond0 as balance-lacp
An administrator needs to replace an aging SAN and move to a hyper-converged infrastructure.
The existing environment consists of the following hosts that are connected to the SAN:
• 5xAIX hosts
• 3x Hyper-V hosts
• 9xESXi hosts
• 2x physical SQL Clusters (Windows Server 2012R2 hosts)
After deploying a Nutanix AHV cluster, which two actions should the administrator take to meet the requirements? (Choose two.)
- A . Deploy Volumes to support the AIX and SQL workloads.
- B . Migrate the ESXI workloads to AHV using Move.
- C . Deploy Files to support the AIX hosts.
- D . Migrate the ESXi and Hyper-V workloads using Move.
Refer to the exhibit.
An administrator creates a security policy that isolates their financial application from accessing the Internet. When viewing the policy in Prism Central, several connections from the application are outbound to the Internet.
What is causing this issue with the policy?
- A . The 0.0.0.0 address was not specified in the outbound rule.
- B . The blocked connections are illustrated for information only.
- C . The Activate box was not checked in the rule, so it is not enforcing.
- D . The policy has been left in monitor mode instead of enforcing mode.
