Nutanix NCP-MCI-6.5 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 51:

  An administrator needs to create a new Linux image and will to do the following as part of the VM deployment:

  *

  Set the OS hostname

  *

  Add custom users

  *

  Add keys

  *

  Run custom scripts

  What package needs to be installed in the Linux image to facilitate this automation?

  A. CloudInit
  B. Sysprep
  A. CloudInit

• Question 52:

  When installing Nutanix Guest Tools (NGT) on an ESXi-hosted VM, which port should be enabled on the VM to allow communication with the NGT-Controller VM service?

  A. 2000
  B. 2074
  C. 8080
  D. 9943
  B. 2074

• Question 53:

  An administrator is performing validation testing of a new-deploy cluster. During this test, the administrator disconnect each LAN interface from each of the nodes while pinging the hypervisor and guest VMs.

  When the first interface is disconnected, pings continue as expected to the hypervisor, but pings stop responding from the guest. Pings continue when the interface is reconnected. When the second interface is disconnected, pings continue to both the hypervisor and guest VMs.

  What could be the cause of this error?

  A. This is normal behavior for a LAN Failover
  B. Switch ports are configured with different VLANs
  C. Portfast is not enabled on the switch ports
  D. One of the network interfaces has a bad patch cable.
  A. This is normal behavior for a LAN Failover
  B. Switch ports are configured with different VLANs

• Question 54:

  Refer to exhibit:

  

  Why has an anomaly been triggered?

  A. Controller reached 2500 IOPS.
  B. Observed IOPS exceed normal values.
  C. Normal Controller behavior has increased.
  D. Observed values do not match predicted values.
  D. Observed values do not match predicted values.

  Explanation/Reference:

  Nutanix anomaly detection is a feature that monitors seasonal trends for time-series data (e.g. CPU usage, memory usage, latency, etc.) and establishes a "band" of expected values based on historical data12. Only values that hit outside the

  "band" will trigger an event / alert1.

  Nutanix leverages a method for determining the bands called `Generalized Extreme Studentized Deviate Test'. A simple way to think about this is similar to a confidence interval where the values are between the lower and upper limits

  established by the algorithm.

  Another web source3 shows an example of how anomaly detection works in Nutanix Prism Central. In the video, you can see that when the observed value of a metric deviates significantly from the predicted value based on historical data, an

  anomaly event is triggered and displayed on a chart.

  Therefore, by comparing the observed values with the predicted values based on historical data, Nutanix anomaly detection can identify abnormal behavior and alert you accordingly.

• Question 55:

  When creating a VM on an AHV cluster, how is the initial placement of the VM determined?

  A. AHV uses a round robin algorithm, placing new VMs onto hosts based on the numerical order of their UUID
  B. The administrator right clicks on the desired host and selects Power on VM from the dropdown menu
  C. The Acropolis Dynamic Scheduler selects a host which provides adequate resources for the VMs configuration
  D. Placement is determined by the host that holds the new_VM token at the time of VM creation
  C. The Acropolis Dynamic Scheduler selects a host which provides adequate resources for the VMs configuration

• Question 56:

  An administrator adds a node with older generation processors to an existing AHV cluster with newer generation processors. What is the effect on live migration?

  A. Live migration continues to function as expected and VMs can move to any AHV host.
  B. Live migration is prevented until the administrator enables the legacy migration option.
  C. Live migration is prevented until the administrator manually changes the newer processor level.
  D. Live migration of VMs is prevented between newer and older processors.
  D. Live migration of VMs is prevented between newer and older processors.

• Question 57:

  After configuring Active Directory as the desired authentication service, an administrator is not able to login into Prism Central using privileged account. Which configuration must be checked first?

  A. Account lock status
  B. Role Mapping
  C. Local user account
  D. Cluster Lockdown
  B. Role Mapping

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  According to the Nutanix Community1, users can authenticate using their Active Directory credentials when Active Directory support is enabled for Prism Central. To enable Active Directory support, you need to configure Role Mapping12,

  which defines how Active Directory groups map to Prism Central roles.

• Question 58:

  An administrator has been notified by a user that a Microsoft SQL Server instance is not performing well. When reviewing the utilization metrics, the following concerns are noted:

  Memory consumption has been above 95% for several months

  Memory consumption has been spiking to 100% for the last five days

  Storage latency is 2ms.

  When logging into Prism Central, how could the administrator quickly verify if this VM has performance bottlenecks?

  A. See Capacity Runway.
  B. Filter VM by Efficiency.
  C. Update Capacity Configurations.
  D. Perform Entity Sync
  B. Filter VM by Efficiency.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  This will allow the administrator to quickly identify VMs that are overprovisioned or underutilized based on their performance metrics. https://www.nutanix.com/support-services/training-certification/certifications/certification- details-nutanix-certified-professional-multicloud-infrastructure-6_5

• Question 59:

  What does Nutanix recommend when setting up the node networkring?

  A. Include NIC models from different vendors in the same bond
  B. Include at least two physically interfaces in every bond.
  C. Combine NIC models from different vendors in the same bond.
  D. Combine NIC models from different vendors in the same bond.
  B. Include at least two physically interfaces in every bond.

• Question 60:

  A. VirtIO drivers have not yet been installed and the disks are IDE disks.
  B. VirtIO drivers have not yet been installed and the disks are SCSI disks.
  C. VirtIO drivers must be installed on AHV for installations of Windows.
  D. VirtIO drivers aren't supported on this version of Windows 2019.
  B. VirtIO drivers have not yet been installed and the disks are SCSI disks.
