QUESTION 30
Refer to the exhibit.

An administrator has an existing cluster and needs to improve performance using AHV Turbo. Which two items are required to achieve even greater performance? (Choose two.)

QUESTION 31
An administrator is planning to deploy a Nutanix cluster to support a few high-performance VMs. This deployment will have the following considerations:
* Individual VMs will likely generate network throughputs in the range of 90-100Mbps
* Due to the configuration of the VMs, it is unlikely that a node will host more than one or two of them at a time
* Individual VMs will communicate with only a few (one or two) remote hosts at a time
* Multicast will not be used in the environment
* The hosts are connected via two 1GbE network connections
How should the administrator configure the network bonds to meet this requirement while maintaining the simplest switch configuration?

QUESTION 32
A company needs to replicate their VMs to a remote site and must have an RPO of less than 1 hour.
When creating a protection domain, what should an administrator do to meet this requirement?

QUESTION 33
An administrator is supporting a business critical environment and deploys metro availability to achieve a zero data loss configuration. The two clusters are connected by a 1GbE connection. A new workload is going to be deployed to this cluster. This workload requires a sustained 150MB/S of write throughput and 20MB/s of read throughput.
Which change must be made to deploy the workload successfully on this cluster?

QUESTION 34
An administrator needs to maximize storage potential in a six-node cluster. The container is configured with the following:
* Post-process compression
* Capacity deduplication
What should the administrator configure to increase space savings?

QUESTION 35
Refer to the exhibit.

An administrator is commissioning a Nutanix Enterprise Cloud. Once the user VMs have been deployed and are running, the administrator finds that VMs on the same host are able to communicate, but are unable to communicate between hosts.
What must be changed to enable full inter-VM communications?

QUESTION 36
The networking team makes changes to the Top of Rack switches to which the Nutanix cluster are attached. A few VMs are able to communicate with each other on the same node but are unable to connect to other parts of the network.
What is the likely cause of this issue?

QUESTION 37
An administrator needs to forecast infrastructure requirements for a new program and its associated applications. Prior to the projected start of the new program, all existing applications will be decommissioned.
How should the administrator perform this task?

QUESTION 38
An administrator is responsible for the following Nutanix Enterprise Cloud environment:
* A central datacenter with a 20-node cluster with 1.5PB of storage
* Five remote sites each with a 4-node cluster with 200TB storage
The remote sites are connected to the datacenter via 1GB links with an average latency of 6 ms RTT. What is the minimum RPO the administrator can achieve for this environment?

QUESTION 39
Refer to the exhibit.

An administrator logged into Prism Element, notices the following in the home dashboard, and showing the exhibit.
Which action should the administrator take next?

QUESTION 40
An administrator is implementing a VDI solution. The workload will be a series of persistent desktops in a dedicated storage container within a four-node cluster. Storage optimizations should be set on the dedicated storage container to give optimal performance including during a node failure event.
Which storage optimizations should the administrator set to meet the requirements?

QUESTION 41
Refer to the exhibit.

An administrator configures Active Directory authentication as shown in the exhibit. Upon finishing setup, users are not able to log in.
What configuration change should be made to fix this issue?

QUESTION 42
A customer needs a DR solution designed around the following requirements:
* There are 8 ms of latency between Sites A and B
* The administrator needs the shortest RPO/RTO possible
* Application consistent snapshots are required
* Use of Nutanix VSS
Which Data Protection Method should be used?

QUESTION 43
An administrator finds that home shares cannot be configured in a new Files 3.5 deployment. Why is this happening?

QUESTION 44
An administrator needs to make sure an RF3 cluster can survive a failure of two complete racks without negatively affecting performance. The current cluster configuration consists of the following:
* 30 All Flash Nodes: distributed 10 nodes per rack across three 42U racks
* Each node is configured with 20TB usable storage all flash (Cluster Total 600TB Usable)
* Current cluster utilization is 500TB storage
* Storage containers have Erasure Coding enabled
Which configuration changes should be made to make sure the cluster meets the requirements?

QUESTION 45
A customer with a four-node RF2 cluster is adding application VMs to their system. After adding these VMs, the Prism dashboard shows 81% storage utilization.
What is the consequence of running the cluster at 81% storage utilization?

QUESTION 46
An administrator is configuring an All Flash cluster to support the following workloads:
* Full clone virtual desktops
* Hadoop
* Write heavy databases
Which three correct configuration options should the administrator use to meet the item requirements?
(Choose three.)
For each procedure, indicate whether it is a correct or incorrect procedure that must be configured to meet the item requirements using the drop-down option.

QUESTION 47
An administrator has two clusters: Site A and Site B.
Async DR is configured between the clusters as follows:
* Site A is the Primary Site
* Site B is the Secondary inactive Site, no VMs running
* Site A is fully in Production
* Site B used as Backup/Disaster Recovery
The customer wants to perform a planned failover between the sites.
How should the administrator accomplish this?

QUESTION 48
An alert about RX errors on eth2 on a node is reported in the cluster. The administrator logs in to the CVM in question, checks the ping_* files in the data/logs/syststats folder, and notices intermittent ping loss.
