Question 1 Single choice

An administrator needs to create and start five new VMs for a Data Analytics Project (OLAP). The VM
Profile is as follows: vCPU:4 vRAM: 64 GB vDisk: 1.5 TB

Each of the four nodes of the Nutanix cluster has the following:
24 vCPU. 20% overall usage
192 GB RAM, 60% overall usage
2 x l920 GB SSD
4 x 2 TB HDD

At cluster level, there is a single RF2 container that is 30% utilized and has an extent store capacity of 13.5
TB.

Which component requires administrator attention?

  1. A

    Physical RAM, because it is not enough to power on all of the new VMs.

  2. B

    Physical Cores, because they are not enough to power on all of the new VMs.

  3. C

    Storage, because the capacity is not enough to create VMs.

  4. D

    Flash Tier because it is not enough to accommodate the workloads.
