Nutanix Certified Master - Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI-5.15) Sample Questions:

1. 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?

A) Metro Availability
B) Near Sync
C) Async
D) Cloud Connect

2. An organizations Nutanix Cluster is based on VMware vSphere. The cluster is configured to download software updates automatically. The administration needs to verify and eventually upgrade VMware hypervisor via Prism Ul.
After logging in to Prism, the administrator receives the message shown:
No available versions for upgrade
What is causing the current state?

A) The cluster is unable to connect to reIease-api.nutanix-ccm:8D.
B) The environment is running the latest vSphere version, so no update is required.
C) vSphere binaries need to be manually uploaded.
D) VMware support has expired, so downloads are not available.

3. A VM does not have enough resources for the demand, which leads to performance bottlenecks. The VM is exhibiting one or more of following baseline values, based on the past 30 days:
* CPU usage > 90% (moderate), 95% (high)
* CPU ready time > 5%, 10%
* Memory usage > 90%, 95%
* Memory swap rate > 0 Kbps (no moderate value)
Which type of VM is being described?

A) Over-provisioned VM
B) Inactive VM
C) Bully VM
D) Constrained VM

4. An administrator is deploying an application that requires maximum I/O throughput for scratch data. The administrator is concerned that the throughput requirement is greater than what can be provided by a single cluster node.
What should the administrator do to meet this requirement?

A) Create several virtual disks attached to the VM's virtual SCSI controller
B) Create a virtual disk attached to the VM's PCI interface
C) Create a volume group with one virtual disk attached to the VM
D) Create a volume group with several virtual disks and attach to the VM

5. An administrator is deploying a three-tier application on a Nutanix Enterprise Cloud consisting of web, application, and database VMs. Traffic between the servers must be limited to specific services/ports. There is an application layer firewall VM deployed on one host in the cluster.
In which way should the administrator meet this requirement?

A) Create a network for each type of VM, and use policy-based routing to control the traffic flow
B) Separate the web. application and database VMs on to dedicated VLANs
C) Categorize the VMs in Prism Central and utilize Flow to set a security policy
D) Configure a security policy and service chain redirecting the server traffic through the firewall
