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

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The Test Plan is the most appropriate resource for detailed information on network validation testing. This document typically outlines the specific tests to be conducted to ensure the network meets the required specifications and performance standards necessary for a stable and efficient Nutanix environment. The Test Plan provides a structured approach to validate each network component and interaction, ensuring all aspects are tested and meet design and operational requirements.

Reference: Nutanix Installation and validation procedures as described in Nutanix official documentation and training modules from Nutanix University.

A customer has an ESXi Cluster with two 10GbE NICs on each node with the following requirements:

* Solution must follow Nutanix Best Practices

* Network configuration should be redundant

* A vSphere Standard Switch must be utilized

Which load balancing method should be used?

A.
Route based on originating port ID
A.
Route based on originating port ID

B.

C.

Answers
D.
Route based on source MAC hash
D.
Route based on source MAC hash
Answers
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

According to Nutanix best practices for ESXi clusters, using a vSphere Standard Switch with 'Route based on originating port ID' is recommended for load balancing. This method ensures that the same virtual port ID within a vSwitch uses the same uplink from the vSwitch. This load balancing policy provides an even distribution of traffic and redundancy by utilizing both NICs effectively without requiring any specific physical switch configurations, such as EtherChannel or LACP.

Reference: The Nutanix Bible, NCS-Core 6.8 course content, and VMware's documentation on vSphere Standard Switch load balancing methods.

A consultant creates three storage containers (container-1, container-2, container-3). The customer requires that only container-1, which will be utilized as an NFS datastore, be presented to external hosts.

However, users are able to mount all three containers.

D.

D.
A Global whitelist entry was configured.
Answers
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

The issue where users can mount all three storage containers despite the intention to restrict access to just container-1 typically stems from a Global whitelist entry. A global whitelist allows all entities to access all containers unless more specific restrictions are applied at the container level. To correct this, specific whitelist entries need to be configured for each container to define and restrict access appropriately.

Reference: Nutanix NCS-Core 6.8 training resources, the Nutanix Bible, and Nutanix technical documentation on storage container management.
