A customer asks for a quote for a hybrid cluster to run general purpose VMs and an ERP application. The customer has a vSAN ReadyNode quote already and is looking for a comparable Nutanix solution. They share the following bill of materials: 3 Hosts, 2x E5-2640v4 CPUs , 512GB RAM , 1 x 480GB SSD , 2 x 8TB HDD , 2 x 1GB NIC What are two reasons to avoid sizing to match a competitor’s bill of materials ? (Choose two)
- A . Sizing data from the competition was shared.
- B . There is no visibility to the actual customer requirement
- C . The assumptions made in the competitor’s sizing cannot be determined.
- D . Nutanix Collector is better at capturing the metrics needed
A prospective customer wants to refresh their current on-premises infrastructure that. consists of 4 ESXi hosts. each with 20 cores and 512GB of RAM, and 1.2PB of usable SAN storage They have recently renewed their ESXi licensing, and all data must remain within their physical network. They are concerned that a hyperconverged solution will not meet their storage requirements without requiring a significant increase in the number of required ESXi hosts and licenses.
Which Nutanix capability should the systems engineer review with the customer?
- A . Replace the hypervisor with AHV
- B . Build Cluster on a public cloud
- C . Position storage-only nodes
- D . Use Volumes to provide storage
Refer to Exhibit:
An administrator logs in to Prism and sees the status shown in the exhibit within the
Hardware Diagram section.
What should the administrator do?
- A . Reseat all disk immediately. If this does not help, reseat the nodes.
- B . Check status of applications running on the cluster and call support.
- C . Resolve all alerts and re-import the disks to make sure there is no service disruption.
- D . Restart all CVMs for the cluster to check, confirm health and repartition and add the disks.
An administrator knows that the disk in a cluster are out of date and a new firmware is available. For security reason, these cluster do not have access to the internet.
Which two steps must be completed to update the firmware? (Choose two.)
- A . Download the update firmware .tgz file from the Nutanix Portal.
- B . Download the dark site bundle and stage it on an internal webserver
- C . Configure LCM with a URL to access the firmware bundle.
- D . Select Upgrade Software, then select disks and upload the updated firmware.
A VOI environment based on AHV Cluster is not performing well. The current environment is using only one bridge (BridgeO). An administrator need to verify if nodes are using all network card associated to BridgeO.
Which two menus should be used to check the current configuration? (Choose two.)
- A . Host NICs tab in Hardware menu
- B . Host view in Network menu
- C . 1.0 Metrics tab VM menu
- D . Network Configuration item in Setting menu
An administrator finds that home shares cannot be configured in a new Files 3.5 deployment.
Why is this happening?
- A . NFS default access is set to Read Only
- B . Access Based Enumeration is not enabled.
- C . The system is deployed as a single FSVM.
- D . Multi-protocol access is not configured.
A prospective customer is concerned about having a single-pane-of-glass manage their infrastructure because it also provides a single-point-of-failure.
How does the Nutanix Prism architecture address this concern?
- A . Prism user Linked Mode for HA
- B . Prism is Deployed in a 3-node HA configuration
- C . Prism is protected by RF2
- D . Prism runs on every CVM
A systems engineer sizers an environment based on the customer’s requirement of N+2 resiliency for the entire cluster. In which two ways could the configuration be changed to meet the customer’s requirements? (Choose Two)
- A . Increase the RAM capacity per Node
- B . Increase the number of Nodes
- C . Increase the CPU capacity per Node
- D . Increase the SSD capacity per Node
During a meeting with a fortune 100 prospect, an SE achieves technical buy-in from the architecture team. The prospect shares that their management recently attended an executive briefing with Cisco and was impressed by the vision presented.
Management is pushing the arching the architecture tea to adopt Cisco as their HCI standard based on a beief that Nutanix is not a major player.
Which resource should an SE highlight?
- A . Garther magic Quadrant
- B . ESG Performance Analysis
- C . Net Promoter Score
- D . Reference architectures
