A financial services company is deploying a new mission-critical OLTP database on a Nutanix AHV cluster. The primary requirement is to achieve a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of zero and a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of less than 5 minutes in case of a site-wide outage. The company has two data centers with a high-speed, low-latency (<5ms RTT) dark fiber link. Which Nutanix data protection feature should the architect recommend to meet these stringent requirements?
An administrator is managing a mixed-workload Nutanix cluster with both VDI and server VMs. To improve storage performance for the VDI workload, they decide to enable inline compression and deduplication on the VDI storage container. After a week, they observe that while storage capacity savings are significant, the performance of some write-intensive server VMs has slightly degraded. What is the most likely cause of this performance degradation?
A Nutanix administrator is tasked with implementing microsegmentation for a three-tier application using Flow Network Security. The goal is to ensure the web servers can only communicate with the application servers, and the application servers can only communicate with the database servers. Which of the following components must be configured to achieve this isolation? (Select THREE)
During a Life Cycle Manager (LCM) upgrade of the BIOS firmware on a cluster, one node fails the update process and is rolled back, while the others succeed. The administrator investigates and finds that the failed node's CVM is currently on a different host. Which AHV feature is most likely responsible for this situation and preventing the firmware upgrade?
True or False: When creating a Volume Group on a Nutanix cluster to provide iSCSI storage, you must manually install and configure Nutanix Guest Tools (NGT) on the external client machine to enable the iSCSI initiator.
An administrator needs to provide shared storage for a new containerized application environment running outside the Nutanix cluster. The application requires a POSIX-compliant, scale-out file system. Which Nutanix service should be deployed and configured to meet this requirement?
A hospital is using a Nutanix cluster to host its Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. They need to create a disaster recovery plan to a secondary site. The compliance requirements mandate that in the event of a disaster, the EHR system must be recoverable with no more than 15 minutes of data loss. Which replication schedule type should be configured on the Protection Domain?
An administrator is attempting to add a new node to an existing AHV cluster. The process fails during the node discovery phase. The administrator confirms that the new node is on the same subnet as the existing CVMs and has the same hypervisor version. What is a common cause for this discovery failure? ```mermaid graph TD Admin[Admin] -->|`foundation-cli discover-nodes`| Foundation Foundation -->|Multicast Discovery| NewNode[New Node] NewNode --x|No Response| Foundation ```
A new administrator takes over a Nutanix environment managed by Prism Central. They find that some VMs can be migrated between clusters, while others cannot. The administrator confirms that all clusters are running compatible AHV and AOS versions. What Prism Central construct is used to define which VMs are eligible for cross-cluster migration?
An administrator is reviewing the capacity runway for a cluster in Prism Central and notices that the storage runway is predicted to be exhausted in 30 days. The cluster currently has RF2 configured. The administrator has identified several non-critical, archive-level workloads that could tolerate a single component failure but not two simultaneous failures. Which action would be most effective in reclaiming storage capacity and extending the runway without purchasing new hardware?
