• Question 32:

  Which ransomware prevention solution for Files is best when the list of malicious file signatures to block is greater than 300?

  A. Third-party solution

  B. Flow Security Central

  C. Data Lens

  D. File Analytics

  Correct Answer: A

  Explanation: Nutanix Files provides a built-in ransomware prevention feature that allows administrators to block malicious file signatures from being written to the file system. However, this feature has a limit of 300 signatures per share or export. If the list of malicious file signatures to block is greater than 300, a third-party solution is recommended2.

• Question 34:

  A company uses Linux and Windows workstations. The administrator is evaluating solution for their file storage needs.

  The solution should support these requirements:

  Distributed File System Active Directory integrated Scale out architecture

  Which of following answer is correct?

  A. Mine

  B. Objects

  C. Volumes

  D. Files

  Correct Answer: D

  Explanation: The solution that meets the company's requirements for their file storage needs is Files. Files is a feature that allows users to create and manage file server instances (FSIs) on a Nutanix cluster. FSIs can provide SMB and NFS access to file shares and exports for different types of clients. Files supports these requirements: Distributed File System: Files uses a distributed file system that spans across multiple FSVMs (File Server VMs), which improves scalability, performance, and availability. Active Directory integrated: Files can integrate with Active Directory for authentication and authorization of SMB clients and multiprotocol NFS clients. Scale out architecture: Files can scale out by adding more FSVMs to an existing FSI or creating new FSIs on the same or different clusters.

• Question 35:

  An administrator has performed an upgrade to Files. After upgrading, the file server cannot reach the given domain name with the specified DNS server list.

  Which two steps should the administrator perform to resolve the connectivity issues with the domain controller servers? (Choose two.)

  A. Verify the DNS settings in Prism Element.

  B. DNS entries for the given domain name.

  C. Verify the DNS settings in Prism Central.

  D. DNS server addresses of the domain controllers.

  Correct Answer: AB

  Explanation: The two steps that the administrator should perform to resolve the connectivity issues with the domain controller servers are:

  Verify the DNS settings in Prism Element: DNS (Domain Name System) is a system that translates domain names into IP addresses. DNS settings are configurations that specify which DNS servers to use for resolving domain names.

  Verifying the DNS settings in Prism Element is a step that the administrator should perform, because it can help identify and correct any incorrect or outdated DNS server addresses or domain names that may cause connectivity issues with

  the domain controller servers.

  Verify the DNS entries for the given domain name: DNS entries are records that map domain names to IP addresses or other information. Verifying the DNS entries for the given domain name is another step that the administrator should

  perform, because it can help check and update any incorrect or outdated IP addresses or other information that may cause connectivity issues with the domain controller servers. References: Nutanix Files Administration Guide, page 32;

• Question 37:

  An administrator is looking for a tool that includes these features:

  Permission Denials Top 5 Active Users Top 5 Accessed Files File Distribution by Type

  Nutanix tool should the administrator choose?

  A. File Server Manager

  B. Prism Central

  C. File Analytics

  D. Files Console

  Correct Answer: C

  Explanation: The tool that includes these features is File Analytics. File Analytics is a feature that provides insights into the usage and activity of file data stored on Files. File Analytics consists of a File Analytics VM (FAVM) that runs on a

  Nutanix cluster and communicates with the File Server VMs (FSVMs) that host the file shares. File Analytics can display various reports and dashboards that include these features:

  Permission Denials: This report shows the number of permission denied events for file operations, such as read, write, delete, etc., along with the user, file, share, and server details.

  Top 5 Active Users: This dashboard shows the top five users who performed the most file operations in a given time period, along with the number and type of operations.

  Top 5 Accessed Files: This dashboard shows the top five files that were accessed the most in a given time period, along with the number of accesses and the file details.

  File Distribution by Type: This dashboard shows the distribution of files by their type or extension, such as PDF, DOCX, JPG, etc., along with the number and size of files for each type. References: Nutanix Files Administration Guide, page 93;

• Question 38:

  Which error logs should the administrator be reviewing to determine why the relates service is down?

  A. Solver.log

  B. Arithmos.ERROR

  C. Cerebro.ERROR

  D. Tcpkill.log

  Correct Answer: C

  Explanation: The error log that the administrator should review to determine why the relay service is down is Cerebro.ERROR. Cerebro is a service that runs on each FSVM and provides relay functionality for Data Lens. Relay service is responsible for collecting metadata and statistics from FSVMs and sending them to Data Lens via HTTPS. If Cerebro.ERROR log shows any errors or exceptions related to relay service, it can indicate that relay service is down or not functioning properly.

• Question 39:

  Which action is required to allow the deletion of file server audit data in Data Lens?

  A. Enable the File Server.

  B. Disable the File Server.

  C. Update the data retention period.

  D. Configure the audit trail target.

  Correct Answer: C

  Explanation: The action that is required to allow the deletion of file server audit data in Data Lens is to update the data retention period. Data retention period is a setting that defines how long Data Lens keeps the file server audit data in its database. Data Lens collects and stores various metadata and statistics from file servers, such as file name, file type, file size, file owner, file operation, file access time, etc. Data Lens uses this data to generate reports and dashboards for file analytics and anomaly detection. The administrator can update the data retention period for each file server in Data Lens to control how long the audit data is kept before being deleted.

• Question 40:

  A team of developers are working on a new processing application and requires a solution where they can upload the ... code for testing API calls. Older iterations should be retained as newer code is developer and tested.

  A. Create an SMB Share with Files and enable Previous Version

  B. Provision a Volume Group and connect via iSCSI with MPIO.

  C. Create an NFS Share, mounted on a Linux Server with Files.

  D. Create a bucket in Objects with Versioning enabled.

  Correct Answer: D

  Explanation: Nutanix Objects supports versioning, which is a feature that allows multiple versions of an object to be preserved in the same bucket. Versioning can be useful for developers who need to upload their code for testing API calls and retain older iterations as newer code is developed and tested. Versioning can also provide protection against accidental deletion or overwrite of objects. References: Nutanix Objects Administration Guide
