ADisaster Recovery administratorhas set up aProtection Policy for 50 workloads, all configured similarly.
TheRPO is 60 minuteswith aspecified retention of 10 local copies, 5 remote copies, and crash consistency.
After activation,recovery points are not appearing at the DR site, even though they are
visible on the production side. What is the most likely issue?

1. A. Nutanix Guest Tools (NGT) is not installed on the source VMs.
2. B. Windows updates need to be applied to all affected VMs.
3. C. The storage container name on the DR cluster does not match the production cluster.
4. D. The storage container RF factor does not match in both clusters.

Correct Answer: C
For Disaster Recovery to function correctly, the source and destination storage containersmust have identical names.
✑ Option C (Storage container name mismatch) is correct:
✑ Option A (NGT not installed) is incorrect:
✑ Option B (Windows updates) is incorrect:
✑ Option D (Storage RF factor mismatch) is incorrect:

An administrator noticeshigh CPU usage on a VMand wants to determine whether adding more vCPUswould improve performance.
Which two metrics should be analyzed to make this decision? (Choose two.)

1. A. VM CPU Ready Time
2. B. VM CPU Usage
3. C. Host CPU Usage
4. D. Host Memory Swap Out Rate

Correct Answer: AB
When diagnosing CPU performance issues, CPU Ready Time and CPU Usage are the key indicators of whether more vCPUs are needed.
✑ Option A (VM CPU Ready Time) is correct:
✑ Option B (VM CPU Usage) is correct:
✑ Option C (Host CPU Usage) is incorrect:
✑ Option D (Host Memory Swap Out Rate) is incorrect:

An administratormigrated a physical MySQL databasefrom alegacy 3-tier environment to aNutanix cluster.
After migration, the administrator finds that atpeak load, the number of IOPS is lower than expected, andlatency is higher.
Which two steps should the administrator take to improve performance? (Choose two.)

1. A. Ensure that theSQL data vDisks are thick provisioned.
2. B. Createadditional vDisks for SQL data.
3. C. UseLVM to stripe the SQL data across multiple vDisks.
4. D. Ensure that theSQL data vDisks are thin provisioned.

Correct Answer: BC
For high-performance databases like MySQL, optimizing storage access is critical.
✑ Option B (Create additional vDisks for SQL data) is correct:
✑ Option C (Use LVM to stripe SQL data across multiple vDisks) is correct:
✑ Option A (Thick provisioned vDisks) is incorrect:
✑ Option D (Thin provisioned vDisks) is incorrect:

An administrator using adark site deployment for LCMis attempting toupgrade to the latest BIOS.
After completing aninventory scan, the administrator doesnot see the expected BIOS versionavailable for upgrade.
What is the most likely reason the latest BIOS is not shown?

1. A. AOS needs to be upgraded first.
2. B. The latest compatibility bundle has not been uploaded.
3. C. The BMC version needs to be upgraded first.
4. D. The dark site webserver is not accessible.

Correct Answer: B
In a dark site deployment, LCM does not automatically fetch updates from the internet. The administrator must manually upload compatibility bundles.
✑ Option B (The latest compatibility bundle has not been uploaded) is correct:
✑ Option A is incorrect:
✑ Option C is incorrect:
✑ Option D is incorrect:

An administrator receives analert in Prismstating:
"Storage container on cluster will run out of storage resources in approximately 1 day."
However, the cluster hasplenty of available space remaining.
What configuration setting is causing the container to run out of space while the cluster has space remaining?

1. A. Advertised Capacity is set too low.
2. B. Reserved Capacity is set too high.
3. C. Compression is set too low.
4. D. Replication Factor is set too high.

Correct Answer: B
Reserved Capacity settings define how much storage is exclusively allocated for a specific container.
✑ Option B (Reserved Capacity is too high) is correct:
✑ Options A, C, and D are incorrect:
