NCP-5.15 Practice Test

An administrator is configuring data protection and DR for a multi-tier application. All VMs must be protected at the same time. What must the administrator do to meet this requirement?

A.

Create a consistency group for each VM with identical schedules

B.

Create a consistency group for the application and place all VMs in it

C.

Create a protection domain for the application and select auto-protect related entities

D.

Create a protection domain for each VM with identical schedules

Microsegmentation was recently enabled in a Nutanix environment. The administrator wants to leverage Prism Central to create a policy that will block all traffic regardless of direction, between two groups of VMs identified by their category.
Which policy should be used to meet this requirement?

A.

An Application Security Policy

B.

A Quarantine Policy

C.

A Whitelist-Based Policy

D.

An Isolation Environment Policy

When configuring Prism Central, which two log modules are able to forward messages to an external syslog server? (Choose two.

A.

API Audit

B.

Flow

C.

DNS

D.

NTP Synchronization

An administrator migrates a VM onto a new Nutanix cluster- After the migration, the administrator observes
the following conditions:
• Cluster memory utilization: 64%
• Cluster CPU utilization: 19%
• Cluster storage utilization. 32%
• Average VM CPU utilization: 25%
• Average VM CPU ready%: 24%
• Average VM memory utilization: 60%
Which two changes should the administrator make to improve VM performance? (Choose two.)

A.

Reduce the number of vCPUs assigned to VMs.

B.

Add more memory to the VMs.

C.

Reduce the number of VMs on the hosts.

D.

Replace high core count CPUs with high clock rate CPUs.

CPU utilization climbs above 90% on several VMs. This causes performance degradation for a
business-critical application. How can alerts be configured to notify the administrator before VM CPU utilization hits 90%?

A.

On a CVM, use ncli to set the VM CPU Check threshold for the critical VMs to a value below 90%.

B.

On the Health dashboard, locate the VM CPU Check and lower the alert threshold below 90%.

C.

On a CVM, configure a cron job to run the VM CPU Check more frequently and email the result.

D.

On the Alerts dashboard, ensure that the VM CPU usage alert is not set to auto-resolve.
