After uploading a hypervisor ISO during the Foundation process, a consultant sees a message that the MD5 sum for the hypervisor is not found in the Whitelist file.
Which step should the consultant take next to resolve this issue?


A. Download the hypervisor ISO again from the vendor website.


B. Restart the Foundation process and upload the hypervisor again.


C. Download the latest hypervisor ISO whitelist file from Nutanix portal.


D. Check the hypervisor version in the Nutanix Compatibility Matrix.





C.   Download the latest hypervisor ISO whitelist file from Nutanix portal.

A consultant creates a Windows VM after installing a new Nutanix cluster running AHV. The consultant has statically assigned an IP address to the VM but it is unable to communicate on the network.
Which action should the consultant take to resolve this issue?


A. Confirm that IPv6 is enabled on the guest VM.


B. Confirm that the VM vNIC is tied to the correct VLAN in Prism Element.


C. Mount and install the Nutanix Guest Tools.


D. Set a Group Policy to make sure the Windows Firewall is disabled.





B.   Confirm that the VM vNIC is tied to the correct VLAN in Prism Element.

Explanation: When a VM is unable to communicate on the network despite having an IP address assigned, one common issue is incorrect network configuration in terms of VLAN assignment. In the Nutanix AHV, VLANs are configured and managed within Prism Element. The consultant should verify that the virtual NIC (vNIC) of the VM is correctly configured to the intended VLAN that corresponds with the rest of the network. This ensures that the VM can communicate with other devices on the same network segment.

A consultant deploys a four-node VMware ESXi cluster and vCenter server. An HA/DRS cluster is configured for all four nodes. The customer deploys five new VMs on the cluster. During the knowledge Transfer, a network cable on one node is removed to demonstrate HA and migration of the VMs to another host. In the HA/DRS cluster settings, the VM Restart Priority for all CVMs is set to Disabled. The customer observes warnings that the CVM on the ejected host is no longer powered on. Which ESXi HA/DRS cluster setting is missing?


A. Enable EVC for the cluster.


B. Disable VM Monitoring on all CVMs.


C. Disable Automation Level on all CVMs.


D. Enable Host Monitoring.





D.   Enable Host Monitoring.

Explanation: The issue indicated is that the VMs, specifically the CVMs (Controller VMs), do not restart on the remaining nodes after a network cable is removed, demonstrating a failure of HA (High Availability). The setting that should be verified is "Host Monitoring" within the ESXi HA/DRS settings. This setting enables the host to monitor the state of other hosts in the cluster and take necessary actions like VM restarts on other hosts in the event of failures. If it's disabled, the cluster wouldn't automatically manage the failover of VMs upon host disconnection.

What is the minimum number of nodes required for a Nutanix Cluster to support Replication Factor 3 (RF3) on a storage container?


A. 3


B. 4


C. 5


D. 6





C.   5

During the knowledge transfer on Prism GUI, a customer asked about AHV best practices for VM High Availability on a five-node cluster and the safest configuration. The consultant informed the customer that best practices dictate that all storage containers are configured with a replication factor of 3.
What will be the behavior if the non-default Guarantee mode is selected on Prism with two AHV host failures?


A. Keeping the default mode will ensure that all VMs can restart in case of two AHV host failures.


B. Keeping the default mode will ensure that all VMs can restart in case of an AHV host failure.


C. Will ensure that all VMs can restart if two AHV nodes remains online.


D. Will ensure that all VMs can restart in case of two simultaneous AHV host failures.





D.   Will ensure that all VMs can restart in case of two simultaneous AHV host failures.

Explanation: In a five-node cluster with storage containers configured with a replication factor of 3, the behavior of VM High Availability when two AHV host failures occur with the non-default "Guarantee mode" enabled is as follows:
Will ensure that all VMs can restart in case of two simultaneous AHV host failures: This mode prioritizes maintaining VM availability by reserving enough resources to restart VMs even with multiple host failures, as long as at least three hosts (matching the replication factor) remain functional.
