Explanation:

https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Web-Console-Guide-Prism-v5_10:wc-protection-domain-failback-disaster.html

The command ncli pd deactivate_and__destroy_vms name= is a critical operation in managing Nutanix environments, particularly in scenarios involving disaster recovery and replication.

This command deactivates the protection domain and deletes all VMs associated with that protection domain from the source site (Site A in this case). This operation is generally part of a planned migration or failover process where the VMs are intended to be run from the remote site (Site B).

After this operation, the protection domain at Site A is no longer active, meaning it has been effectively removed along with its associated VMs, thus clearing the way for Site B to take over operations without conflict from the original site.

Reference:

This action and its implications are covered under Nutanix disaster recovery and high availability strategies, detailed in both the Nutanix Bible and official Nutanix NCS-Core training materials, which discuss the management of protection domains and replication processes.
