A company's NOC personnel have a custom Python script they run manually by logging into each VM to fix a common issue across all of the corporate VMs. Management has no audit history of who is running the script or when it is occurring. The company has recently implemented Calm and management has asked its administrators to accomplish these tasks:

Reduce the manual effort for the NOC personnel.

Ensure the process is repeatable across all applications.

Provide audit history for management of the actions.

Suggested answer: A, C

Explanation:

To reduce the manual effort for the NOC personnel, the administrators can create a new Action that contains the custom Python script as an Execute task with a script type of EScript. This will allow the NOC personnel to run the script on any VM from the Calm UI or API without logging into each VM. To ensure the process is repeatable across all applications, the administrators can create a new Runbook that contains the same Action and assign it to the relevant Projects. This will enable the NOC personnel to run the script on multiple VMs across different applications in a single workflow. To provide audit history for management of the actions, the administrators can view the Execution History tab under the Runbook page for audit purposes. This will show the details of each Runbook execution, such as the status, duration, user, and logs. Alternatively, the administrators can also view the Audit tab under the Application view for audit purposes. This will show the history of all actions performed on the application, such as launch, update, delete, and run actions.Reference:Nutanix Certified Professional - Multicloud Automation (NCP-MCA) Exam Blueprint Guide, page 18, section 4.2.1.
