An administrator needs to enable Marketplace in Prism Central before deploying Nutanix apps.
Which prerequisite must be met on the Prism Element cluster hosting Prism Central to enable Marketplace?
An administrator manages a 3-node AHV cluster and needs to optimize overall cluster consumption starting from a recording server workload that stores MP4 videos on dedicated local vDisks. Specifications:
Compression: post process 60 min
Capacity dedupe: disabled
Erasure coding: Disabled
Which configuration would best improve cluster performance?
An administrator would like to create a VM template for reusability, to simplify VM management, and improve security.
When should the administrator apply a guest customization profile to simplify VM management?
An administrator is troubleshooting intermittent VM I/O stalls that appear across hosts and clusters.
The issue is sporadic, and the administrator needs to rapidly collect the correct platform logs for deeper analysis and possible escalation. The administrator wants to use a supported mechanism designed for efficient log collection, and must ensure the environment prerequisites are met so the tool can be used successfully.
Which option correctly describes the supported approach and a key prerequisite?
An administrator is working to ensure a cluster ' s future resource needs in Prism Central and notices a red warning icon labeled PC Under-provisioned. Which specific condition in the environment most likely triggered this warning?
An administrator needs to configure the virtual switch on a Nutanix AHV cluster to maximize both per-VM and per-host network throughput with LACP support. Which bond type should the administrator configure?
A VM is protected by a protection policy and the volume group is configured with CHAP authentication. An administrator rotates the VM’s password as part of the monthly routine. What action must the administrator perform to ensure the password is retained in the event of a failover?
A database server has a corrupt database after a VM was restored from a recovery point. The database VM is part of the VIP_VMS category that is protected by a Protection Policy with asynchronous schedule.
After checking the state of NGT tools, an administrator is investigating the Protection Policy looking for the root cause of the database corruption.
What is the most probably cause?
What is the minimum number 80 TB capacity nodes that must be added to the cluster to fulfill this requirement?
An administrator is using Nutanix Move to migrate 10 VMs and has manually changed the preparation mode for two of the VMs.
What preparation mode will be used within the migration plan?
What is the minimum Throttled IOPS value the administrator must set in the policy to accommodate the average load of VM03 (average 800 IOPS)?

An administrator supports multiple AHV clusters under Prism Central and uses Intelligent Operations playbooks for remediation.
The organization recently standardized alert policies, but the alert policy names and IDs change between environments due to automated deployments and periodic updates.
The requirement is to trigger a remediation playbook for any alert that matches a defined performance pattern (for example, impact type and severity plus a keyword pattern), regardless of which specific alert policy generated it, while avoiding unrelated non-performance alerts.
Which playbook trigger best meets the requirement?
An administrator receives intermittent “VM I/O latency” complaints from two application teams that share the same AHV cluster.
In Prism Central, multiple performance-related alerts appear across the same 30 minute window, but only some VMs are impacted.
The administrator needs to collect the most relevant platform logs for escalation, minimizing noise and ensuring the bundle covers the exact time window when the alert condition occurred. The organization also requires that the log bundle can be attached to a support case without manual repackaging.
Which approach best satisfies the requirement?
The administrator noticed, in the past hour, a VM is showing:
CPU ready time > 5%
Memory swap rate > 0 Kbps
Host I/O Stargate CPU usage > 85%
What type of VM displays these characteristics?
An administrator needs to enable software data-at-rest encryption on a 2-node ROBO cluster. The organization requires that encryption keys are stored on-premises outside of the cluster. Which KMS type should the administrator configure?
An administrator is tasked with using Nutanix Move to migrate a VM from Hyper-V to Nutanix AHV. What must be deployed on the Hyper-V host to facilitate migration?
What is the minimum number of nodes required for a storage container with Replication Factor 2 and Erasure Coding?
An administrator has 16 hosts in a cluster, including four undersized older hosts that needs to be removed from the cluster. Unfortunately new servers will take more than six months to be procured.
What policy should be defined within Prism Central to prevent five mission critical VMs from ever running on the older hosts?
An administrator needs to expand an existing cluster with a new node that has no operating system. Only IP addresses are available. Out of band management (IPMI) has not been configured. Which tool should be used to image the node?
When the administrator attempts to configure a Volume Group and connect an external iSCSI initiator, the connection fails. Which cluster configuration step did the administrator most likely miss?
An administrator is troubleshooting intermittent network connectivity issues on an AHV host and runs the following command:
ethtool -S eth0 | grep error
Output:
rx_crc_errors: 4389675534
rx_missed_errors: 0
tx_aborted_errors: 0
tx_carrier_errors: 0
tx_window_errors: 0
rx_long_length_errors: 0
rx_short_length_errors: 0
rx_align_errors: 0
rx_errors: 0
tx_errors: 0
rx_length_errors: 0
rx_over_errors: 0
rx_frame_errors: 0
rx_fifo_errors: 0
tx_fifo_errors: 0
tx_heartbeat_errors: 0
The command is executed multiple times and it is observed that the CRC errors are incrementing.
What is the most likely cause of the high rx_crc_errors observed on the interface?
An administrator is trying to migrate a VM to a new container. The Migration of vDisks stalls.
What could be the cause of this?
An administrator has been tasked to remove a node from a Nutanix cluster running SQL VMs to help with a hardware refresh. After the node removal started, the administrator received the following error:
Node node_uuid cannot be removed: Cluster needs at least 5 usable nodes.
What action does the administrator need complete to remove the node?
An administrator has determined that the storage space is low within a Nutanix cluster environment. The container is set to Replication Factor 2. After deleting dozens of inactive VMs earlier today, the administrator notices no space reclamation.
What could be the cause of this?
An administrator has been tasked with migrating VMs out of a storage container that isn ' t using compression and is using a non-standard naming convention. The administrator needs to do other administrative tasks during the vDisk live migration.
What administrative tasks can the administrator perform during the vDisk live migration?
An administrator attempts to provision a VM using remote storage, but the target container does not appear in the dropdown list. What is the most likely explanation?
An administrator needs to temporarily allow an external host to mount a Nutanix storage container via NFS for a data migration. Which approach is recommended?
An administrator is configuring uplinks on an AHV cluster and wants guest VMs to use bandwidth across multiple physical adapters without additional configuration of the physical switches.
Which uplink bond type should the administrator choose?
An administrator decided to simplify volume group management by automatically enabling vDisk load balancing for better performance.
How can the administrator enabled vDisk load balancing by default for volume groups?
An administrator has a large group of VMs for the marketing team that all have the same RPO requirements of a snapshot every hour. A Protection Policy already exists with an hourly snapshot schedule. What is the easiest way to add this group of VMs to the Protection Policy?
A node in a 3-node cluster is running out of physical resources. All three nodes are equally configured. An administrator wants to live migrate VMs to another node, but is unable to do so.
What is causing this issue?
A cluster only has one storage pool. Even though the pool has sufficient empty space, all but one container are out of space. What could be the cause of this?
