Nutanix Nutanix Certifications NCA-6.5 Questions & Answers

• Question 101:

  Which Component Allows you to pair sites for disaster Recovery Policy Creation Using Nutanix Leap?

  A. Availability Zones

  B. Protection Domains

  C. Recovery Plans

  D. Protection Policies

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 102:

  Which tool provides diagnostic system data for Nutanix to deliver proactive support? (Choose Correct answer and give explanation/References from Nutanix Certified Associate (NCA) v6.5 official study resources)

  A. NCC

  B. Cluster Heart

  C. Pulse

  D. Cluster health

  Correct Answer: C

  Pulse is a built-in tool that periodically collects and sends diagnostic data to Nutanix support for proactive monitoring and troubleshooting. This data includes cluster configuration, performance metrics, and error logs, among other things.

  Nutanix support can use this data to identify and resolve issues before they become critical, and to provide recommendations for optimizing cluster performance. NCC (Nutanix Cluster Check) is another tool provided by Nutanix, but it is used

  for performing manual health checks and diagnostics on the cluster, rather than providing proactive support.

  Cluster Heart and Cluster Health are not tools provided by Nutanix, and are not relevant to this question.

• Question 104:

  Refer to the exhibit.

  

  An administrator notices that the Data Resiliency Statue of some components has been reduced to 0. making it impossible to support a

  node failure in the cluster.

  What type of failure is most likely the cause of this issue?

  A. Block

  B. Disk

  C. CVM

  D. Nods

  Correct Answer: C

• Question 105:

  How can an administrator determine if the cluster can sustain a hardware failure?

  What is Nutanix's scale-out storage technology that makes its hyperconverged platform possible?

  A. Distributed File Services

  B. Distributed Storage Fabric

  C. HDD/SDD Storage Tiers

  D. Hot swappable NVMe/SSD

  Correct Answer: B

  Nutanix's scale-out storage technology, the Distributed Storage Fabric, makes its hyperconverged platform possible. It provides a single, unified layer of storage to multiple nodes in a cluster, allowing data to be stored, accessed, and processed in a distributed, fault-tolerant manner.

• Question 107:

  An administrator needs to send weekly performance reviews to several line of business managers about VMs they are managing. Which tool should the administrator use to satisfy this task?

  A. Prism Elements Links to Chart analysis

  B. Prism Elements New Alert policy

  C. Prism Central Projects with data export

  D. Prism Central Reports with a schedule

  Correct Answer: D

  To send weekly performance reviews to several line of business managers about VMs they are managing, the administrator should use Prism Central Reports with a schedule. Prism Central Reports is a tool that allows the administrator to create custom reports, which can include information such as CPU usage, memory usage, and disk I/O for specific VMs. The administrator can schedule the reports to be generated and sent out on a regular basis, such as weekly. This will allow the line of business managers to review the performance of the VMs they are responsible for on a regular basis, and take appropriate actions if necessary.

• Question 109:

  

  Upon logging into Prism Element an administrator sees a red heart, as shown in the exhibit. Which dashboard in Prism will best help the administrator to isolate the cause of the red heart?

  A. Health

  B. Tasks

  C. Analysis

  D. Hardware

  Correct Answer: A

  The Health dashboard in Prism Element provides an overview of the cluster's health, including alerts and notifications that can help the administrator identify and address any issues. The red heart icon is an indicator that there is an issue with the cluster, and the Health dashboard can be used to investigate the cause of the issue.

• Question 110:

  A SQL Server cluster has been deployed on an AHV cluster. To ensure maximum uptime, the administrator wants the SQL Server VMs running on different hosts while leveraging High Availability in case of host failure.

  Which configuration would meet these requirements?

  A. Configure one VM as an Agent VM

  B. Disable Host affinity rules in the cluster

  C. Create an anti-affinity rule via CLI.

  D. Disable VM live migration from selected VMs.

  Correct Answer: C

  Anti-affinity rules are used to ensure that virtual machines are not running on the same physical host. This can be useful in situations where the administrator wants to ensure that virtual machines are running on different hosts for high

  availability and to minimize the impact of a host failure. By creating an anti-affinity rule via CLI, the administrator can ensure that the SQL Server VMs are running on different hosts while still leveraging high availability in case of host failure.
