Nutanix NCM-MCI-5.15 Practice Exam – 108 Unique Questions [Q40-Q63]

QUESTION 40
Refer to the exhibit.

What is the purpose of eth2 on the CVMs?

QUESTION 41
An administrator is performing a set of routine checks and notes that Prism Central is running with 4 vCPUs and 21 GB RAM. The organizations environment is based on two Nutanix clusters with 170 VMs plus a Legacy vSphere infrastructure. No manual changes have been done on Prism Central VM.
Which configuration justifies the current Prism Central configuration?

QUESTION 42
A customer has Metro Availability configured in Automatic Resume Mode between Site A and Site B What happens to VMs if Primary Site A has full network failure?

QUESTION 43
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?

QUESTION 44
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?

QUESTION 45
An administrator is deploying Nutanix Files 3.5 and needs to configure the sizing of the FSVMs for an increased number of concurrent SMB connections over the default 750.
What should the administrator do?

QUESTION 46
A system administrator needs to shut down an AHV node in a Nutanix cluster without causing service disruption. The administrator checks data resiliency and verifies that the cluster can tolerate a node down.
Which three steps should the administrator perform next? (Choose three.)

QUESTION 47
The networking team makes changes to the Top of Rack switches to which the Nutanix cluster are attached.
A few VMs are able to communicate with each other on the same node but are unable to connect to other parts of the network.
What is the likely cause of this issue?

QUESTION 48
An administrator receives reports about a Nutanix environment. The investigation finds the following;
* VMs are experiencing very high latency
* Each node is equipped with a single SSD, utilized at 95%
* Each node is equipped with three HDDs, utilized at 40%
Why are the guest VMs experiencing high latency?

QUESTION 49
Refer to the exhibit.

A Nutanix host is connected as shown in the exhibit with br0-up set to active/backup. Physical Switch 1 experiences a power outage causing br0-up to failover to using eth2. The CVM and host become inaccessible. User VMs restart on other hosts in the cluster, which causes a disruption to those VMs.
Which configuration issue likely caused this outage?

QUESTION 50
An administrator inherits a new Nutanix environment and logs in to a CVM to check the network configuration. The configuration is as follows:

Which action should the administrator take to improve network performance?

QUESTION 51
A customer recently set up Async Replication between Site A and Site B. The customer wants to conduct a planned failover and clicks Activate on Site B.
The customer then runs the following command on Site A:
ncli pd deactivate_and__destroy_vms name=<protection_domain_name>
What does this do to the customer environment?

QUESTION 52
An administrator has a 32-node hybrid cluster with CPU, RAM and storage utilization of 80%. A database VM is configured with VM Flash.
What is causing this IO latency?

QUESTION 53
Refer to the exhibit.

An administrator has an existing cluster and needs to improve performance using AHV Turbo. Which two items are required to achieve even greater performance? (Choose two.)

QUESTION 54
A system administrator needs to shut down an AHV node in a Nutanix cluster without causing service disruption. The administrator checks data resiliency and verifies that the cluster can tolerate a node down.
Which three steps should the administrator perform next? (Choose three.)

QUESTION 55
An administrator is currently using both 10g uplink with LACP and balance-tcp. A single VM should not be allowed to use more than a single 10G uplink, and both uplinks should be utilized.
Which two command should be used to configure the bond? (choose two)

QUESTION 56
An administrator has a VM that consumes large amounts of storage and has the following characteristics:
* Create large / sequential writes
* Data must be kept for years
* Data is normally only accessed at the end of the year to run report
The administrator decides to use Erasure Coding to save space.
Which feature should the administrator utilize to save space for this VM?

QUESTION 57
An administrator is deploying an application using Nutanix Volumes. After configuring the volume group and connecting the guest’s iSCSI initiator to the volume group, they begin performance testing.
The administrator learns that performance on the virtual disk attached to the iSCSI initiator is far less than that of a virtual disk connected directly to the VM.
Which situation is causing this condition?

QUESTION 58
A customer recently set up Async Replication between Site A and Site B. The customer wants to conduct a planned failover and clicks Activate on Site B.
The customer then runs the following command on Site A:
ncli pd deactivate_and__destroy_vms name=<protection_domain_name>
What does this do to the customer environment?

QUESTION 59
An administrator is configuring software only. Data-at-Rest Encryption on their Nutanix cluster. They are planning to deploy a third-party key management server (KMS).
Where should this server be hosted?

QUESTION 60
A three-node cluster has a Nutanix Files instance with three FSVMs.
What happens after a node failure?

QUESTION 61
An administrator finds that home shares cannot be configured in a new Files 3.5 deployment. Why is this happening?

QUESTION 62
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?

QUESTION 63
An administrator receives an alert in Prism indicating that interface eth2, on an AHV host is receiving many CRC errors. After togging into the problematic host, the following command is run to show the indicated output:

What is causing this issue?
