List of questions
Question 21

An administrator of a Nutanix Enterprise Cloud has microsegmentation enabled and a firewall VM installed. The security team notifies the administrator that one of the VMs hosted in the environment has been exhibiting suspect network activity. The administrator wants to isolate the VM from the production network, but must still be able to access it to perform diagnostics.
What should the administrator do to meet the requirement?

Question 22

An administrator migrates a VM onto a new Nutanix cluster. After the migration, the administrator observes the following conditions:
• Cluster memory utilization: 64%
• Cluster CPU utilization: 19%
• Cluster storage utilization: 32%
• Average VM CPU utilization: 25%
• Average VM CPU ready%: 24%
• Average VM memory utilization: 60%
Which two changes should the administrator make to improve VM performance? (Choose two.)
Question 23

An administrator is supporting a business critical environment and deploys metro availability to achieve a zero data loss configuration. The two clusters are connected by a 1GbE connection. A new workload is going to be deployed to this cluster. This workload requires a sustained 150MB/S of write throughput and 20MB/s of read throughput.
Which change must be made to deploy the workload successfully on this cluster?

Question 24

A systems administrator needs to add more VMs to their Nutanix cluster.
Which two actions should the administrator perform to determine if the current cluster can accommodate the new VMs? (Choose two.)

Question 25

A guest VM is reported to have poor storage performance. It has an I/O profile of 80% read. 20% write, and the HDDs form more than 50% of the read source.
What should an administrator do to resolve this issue?

Question 26

An administrator receives an alert in Prism indicating that interface eth2, on an AHV host is receiving many CRC errors. After togging into the problematic host, the following command is run to show the indicated output:
What is causing this issue?
Reference: rx_crc_errors are caused either by faults in layer 1 (in the past, we have seen failed twinax cables and incorrect types of fibre being used), or issues with jumbo frames on the network. In an environment with 10 Gig switches that use cut-through forwarding (Cisco Nexus, Arista, Cisco devices using IOS default to Store and Forward switching), any packets that come into the switch will get forwarded out the destination interface once the switch has read the destination MAC address. If that packet has an MTU over what is configured on the interface, it will cut off the packet at the designated MTU, causing the server to receive a malformed packet, which will throw a CRC error.
If you have a layer 1 issue, you will see rx_crc_errors, not on all but one or two nodes.
Question 27

An administrator deletes a large amount of data from a Volume Group presented to a Linux VM. The administrator notices that the deleted data has not been reclaimed as usable storage.
What action should be taken to reclaim the storage capacity?

Question 28

A customer has two mission-critical applications and needs to have them backed up to a remote location. The remote location is connected using a leased line and has an average latency of 7 ms.
Which Nutanix technology will provide the shortest RPO possible?

Question 29

An administrator needs to deploy an application with a large amount of data connected via Nutanix Volumes.
Which two actions should the administrator take when designing the Volume Group? (Choose two.)
Question 30

Microsegmentation was recently enabled in a Nutanix environment. The administrator wants to leverage Prism Central to create a policy that will block all traffic, regardless of direction, between two groups of VMs identified by their category.
Which policy should be used to meet this requirement?
