An administrator is deploying an application that requires maximum I/O throughput for scratch data. The administrator is concerned that the throughput requirement is greater than what can be provided by a single cluster node. What should the administrator do to meet this requirement?
A. Create a volume group with several virtual disks and attach to the VM
B. Create a volume group with one virtual disk attached to the VM
C. Create a virtual disk attached to the VM's PCI interface
D. Create several virtual disks attached to the VM's virtual SCSI controller
An administrator is deploying several new application VMs to a Nutanix cluster. The application is very transactional with a 28/72 random, read/write ratio. What should the administrator do?
A. Add a minimum of four SSDs to each node to ensure all writes go to the SSDs.
B. Add a minimum of four virtual disks to each VM, and aggregate them on guest OS level.
C. Add one large SSD to each node and enable Flash Mode for the VMs.
D. Add one large virtual disk to each VM. and use it for all application data.
A VM is exhibiting one or more of the following baseline values based on the past 30 days:
CPU usage<; 20%
CPU ready time<; 5%
Memory usage<; 50% (moderately) or<; 20% (severely)
Memory swap rate = 0 Kbps
Which type of VM is being described?
A. Constrained VM
B. Inactive VM
C. Bully VM
D. Over-Provisioned VM
A customer with a four-node RF2 cluster is adding application VMs to their system. After adding these VMs, the Prism dashboard shows 81% storage utilization. What is the consequence of running the cluster at 81% storage utilization?
A. The customer has the ability to add more VMs up to the 100% storage utilization.
B. There is available capacity in the storage fabric and the cluster is resilient.
C. Node failure is imminent due to storage utilization.
D. The cluster is not resilient in the storage fabric
While creating an image placement policy on the organizations AOS 5.15-based Nutanix cluster, the administrator wants to ensure there are no restrictions on using the selected images on clusters outside of the identified set. What type of Policy Enforcement must the administrator choose?
A. Soft
B. Internal
C. Hard
D. External
Refer to the exhibit.
A Microsoft SQL 2016 deployment is shown in the exhibit. The administrator receives user reports that database queries take too long to return. Which optimization should be made to this configuration to improve performance?
A. Combine both of the OS and SQL Binaries disks
B. Add a second SCSI controller for the Database.
C. TempDB, and Logs disk Separate the Database. TempDB, and Logs onto their own disks
D. Configure the VM to use a PCI disk controller
An administrator is trying to correct high cluster IOPs and Cluster Controller Latency. Networking is the suspected issue.
Which networking parameters should be configured in the Nutanix cluster?
A. Bond State and network latency
B. Number of NICs connected and network latency.
C. Number of NICs connected and frame size
D. Number of NICs connected and bond state.
An administrator is planning to deploy a Nutanix cluster to support a few high-performance VMs. This deployment will have the following considerations:
Individual VMs will likely generate network throughputs in the range of 90-100Mbps Due to the configuration of the VMs, it is unlikely that a node will host more than one or two of them at a time Individual VMs will communicate with only a few (one or two) remote hosts at a time Multicast will not be used in the environment The hosts are connected via two 1GbE network connections
How should the administrator configure the network bonds to meet this requirement while maintaining the simplest switch configuration?
A. Configure bond0 as balance-sib
B. Configure bond0 as active-backup
C. Configure bond0 as balance-tcp
D. Configure bond0 as balance-lacp
