NEW QUESTION # 53
An administrator needs to create user VM subnets for multiple NC2 clusters in AWS.
What would be the best approach to take?
- A. Use the cluster management subnet dedicated to each cluster.
- B. Create guest-VM VNets for each cluster.
- C. Create guest-VM subnets for each cluster.
- D. Create guest-VM subnets to be shared by all clusters.
Answer: C
Explanation:
When creating user VM subnets for multiple NC2 clusters in AWS, the best approach is to create guest-VM subnets for each cluster. This ensures that each cluster has its own dedicated subnets, which simplifies network management and avoids potential IP conflicts.
Advantages of Dedicated Subnets:
Isolation: Each cluster operates in its own subnet, providing better isolation and security.
Management: Easier to manage and troubleshoot network issues when each cluster has its own subnets.
Scalability: More scalable as each subnet can be managed and expanded independently.
Steps to Create Guest-VM Subnets:
Identify the IP range for each subnet.
In the AWS VPC console, create a new subnet for each cluster using the identified IP ranges.
Associate the new subnets with the respective clusters during or after the cluster deployment process.
Why Not Shared Subnets:
Shared subnets could lead to IP conflicts and make network management more complex, especially as the number of clusters grows.

NEW QUESTION # 55
An administrator has deployed an NC2 cluster in AWS.
The following configuration decisions were made:
Created a new VPC from the NC2 console as part of the deployment
Selected the Public option for prism access policy
Host type selected was i13en,metal
The administrator now has a goal of provision public internet access to a user VM (UVM),web-1, on the Nutanix cluster. The admin can access Prism Element via the public DNS of the Auto-created load balancer.
The administrator tries to create another network load balancer for the web server access. After creating the load balancer and registering web-1's IP address as a target, the administrator finds that the health check for the VM target is failing and the DNS returns as NOT Found message in the browser.
Why is the issue happening?
- A. The administrator has not assigned a public IP to web-1.
- B. The administrator has not modified the inbound rules under the UVM security group to a/low the network load balancer to access the UVM subnet.
- C. The load balancer is still in a Provisioning state.
- D. The administrator needs to provision an application load balancer instead of a network load balancer to allow Internet traffic to access the UVM subnet.
Answer: A
Explanation:
* For a VM to be accessible over the internet through a load balancer, the VM itself must have a public IP address.
* In this case, the health check for the VM target is failing and the DNS returns a " NOT Found " message because web-1 does not have a public IP assigned.
* Without a public IP, the load balancer cannot route traffic to web-1 from the internet.
* Assigning a public IP to web-1 ensures that the VM can be accessed via the load balancer, resolving the connectivity issue.
Refer to the AWS documentation on network load balancers and public IP assignments, and Nutanix documentation on VM network configurations.
NEW QUESTION # 56
Which NC2 user role will allow full access to clusters created within an organization?
- A. Organization Administrator
- B. Cluster Administrator
- C. Organization Security Administrator
- D. Cluster Super Admin
Answer: A
Explanation:
In Nutanix Cloud Integration with AWS, specifically version 6.7, the role that allows full access to clusters created within an organization is the Organization Administrator.
The Organization Administrator role has the highest level of privileges within an organization, enabling the user to manage all aspects of the clusters, including creation, modification, and deletion.
This role is designed to oversee and control the entire organization's resources, ensuring comprehensive management capabilities over all clusters and associated resources.
Reference:
Refer to the Nutanix documentation on roles and permissions for NC2 on AWS for further details.
NEW QUESTION # 57
An NC2 cluster on AWS has been deployed to act as a DR site for an on-premises cluster. A Layer 2 Stretch has been established and the Gateway on-premises is used for all traffic for the subnet from both clusters.
What would be the course of action to restore service should the on-premises Data Center go completely offline?
- A. Failover the VMs and update the Forward policy on the NC2 on AWS cluster.
- B. Failover the VMs and remove the Forward policy on the on-premises cluster.
- C. Failover the VMs and remove the Forward policy on the NC2 on AWS cluster.
- D. Failover the VMs and update the Forward policy on the on-premises cluster.
Answer: B
Explanation:
In a Layer 2 stretched environment where the default gateway resides on-premises, a " Forward policy " is used to route traffic from the cloud back to the data center. If the on-premises data center goes completely offline, the on-premises gateway is no longer reachable, which would halt all North-South communication for the VMs failed over to AWS. To restore full service, the administrator must not only failover the VMs to the NC2 cluster but also remove the Forward policy on the on-premises cluster (or specifically update the routing logic to ensure the AWS cluster takes over gateway duties). This allows the cloud cluster to stop attempting to tunnel traffic to the missing on-premises gateway and instead utilize local cloud-based exit points for network traffic, restoring external connectivity.
NEW QUESTION # 58
How many Amazon Elastic Block Store(EBS) volumes are attached to each node within an AWS NC2 cluster upon creation.
- A. 0
- B. 1
- C. 2
- D. 3
Answer: D
Explanation:
* Upon creation, each node within an AWS NC2 cluster has3 Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS)volumes attached.
* These volumes are used for different purposes, such as operating system storage, Nutanix services, and user data storage.
* The number of EBS volumes is designed to ensure adequate storage performance and capacity for the NC2 cluster ' s operations and workload demands.
Refer to the Nutanix documentation on NC2 cluster setup and AWS EBS volume configurations to confirm the details on the number and purpose of EBS volumes attached to each node.
NEW QUESTION # 59
What happens if there are not enough AWS bare-metal nodes available in the selected region during an NC2 cluster expansion?
- A. Expansion continues with fewer nodes than requested.
- B. Cluster enters maintenance mode until nodes are available.
- C. NC2 retries provisioning and may fail, so the administrator must verify node availability with AWS.
- D. The NC2 console will retry the deployment until suitable nodes are available.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Bare-metal EC2 instances are a specialized resource in AWS, and their availability can sometimes be limited within a specific region or Availability Zone. If an administrator attempts to expand an NC2 cluster and the requested instance types are out of stock at the AWS level, the NC2 console will attempt to provision the nodes but will eventually reach aretry limit and fail. The portal does not indefinitely hold the cluster in maintenance mode. Instead, the administrator is responsible for verifying node availability through the AWS Service Health Dashboard or AWS support. If the desired instance type (e.g., i3.metal) is unavailable, the administrator may need to consider expanding into a different Availability Zone or choosing a different supported instance type to satisfy the expansion requirement.
NEW QUESTION # 60
An administrator has noticed the company's NC2 free trial expired 60 days ago.
What should the administrator do to continue using all of the NC2 features on existing clusters?
- A. Nothing. The clusters will have full feature support.
- B. Contact Nutanix support to redeploy the cluster.
- C. Switch to a paid subscription plan.
- D. Contact the AWS cloud vendor.
Answer: C
Explanation:
* After the NC2 free trial expires, to continue using all features of NC2 on existing clusters, the administrator needs to switch to a paid subscription plan.
* A paid subscription ensures uninterrupted access to the full range of features and support for NC2 clusters.
* Without switching to a paid plan, the features might be limited, and support may not be available, impacting the cluster ' s operations and management.
Refer to the Nutanix billing and subscription documentation for details on switching from a trial to a paid plan and the benefits associated with paid subscriptions.

Where can the status of a Layer 2 Extension be checked within the management interface?
- A. Prism Central > Network and Security > Subnets > Subnet Extensions
- B. Prism Central > Network and Security > Network Services > Subnet Extensions
- C. Prism Central > Network and Security > Virtual Private Clouds > Subnet Extensions
- D. Prism Central > Network and Security > Connectivity > Subnet Extensions
Answer: B
Explanation:
Monitoring the health and connectivity of stretched Layer 2 networks is vital for maintaining seamless hybrid cloud operations.
In a Nutanix environment managed via Prism Central, the specific location to verify the operational status of these extensions is underNetwork and Security, specifically within theNetwork Servicessection labeledSubnet Extensions. This dashboard provides visibility into the VTEP (VXLAN Tunnel Endpoint) gateways and the specific subnets that have been extended from the on-premises environment to NC2 on AWS. Administrators can check if the tunnel is " Up " or " Down " and view performance metrics associated with the stretched segment. Ensuring the status is monitored here allows for rapid troubleshooting of connectivity issues that might prevent virtual machines from communicating across the hybrid link.

NEW QUESTION # 64
An administrator has deployed an NC2 on AWS cluster and doesn't have connectivity back to the on-premises environment yet. The administrator wants to SSH into a CVM to edit a security setting and has deployed a Jump Host into an existing public subnet.
What action must the administrator still take to gain access to the CVM?
- A. Edit the User Management Network Security Group to allow SSH from the Jump Host IP.
- B. Edit the UVM security group to allow SSH from the Jump Host IP and remove Cluster Lockdown.
- C. Edit the CVM iptables to allow SSH.
- D. Create Custom Network Security Group at the subnet level and add the IP address of the Jump Host
Answer: A
Explanation:
To SSH into a Controller VM (CVM) in an NC2 on AWS cluster without on-premises connectivity, the administrator needs to ensure that the security settings allow SSH access from the Jump Host. This involves editing the User Management Network Security Group to permit SSH traffic from the Jump Host IP.
Deploy Jump Host:
Ensure the Jump Host is deployed in a public subnet with an Elastic IP (EIP) assigned for external access.
Edit User Management Network Security Group:
Locate the security group associated with the user management network.
Modify the inbound rules to allow SSH (port 22) from the Jump Host's IP address. This ensures that the Jump Host can establish an SSH connection to the CVM.
Steps to Edit Security Group:
Navigate to the EC2 dashboard in the AWS Management Console.
Select "Security Groups" under the "Network & Security" section.
Find and select the appropriate security group.
Edit the inbound rules to add a new rule:
Type: SSH
Protocol: TCP
Port Range: 22
Source: Custom IP (enter the Jump Host's public IP address)
Additional Configuration:
Ensure that the CVM itself allows SSH connections and that no internal firewall rules block the traffic.

NEW QUESTION # 66
An administrator plans to configure Multicloud Snapshot Technology (MST) based Disaster Recovery (DR).
Which two options are valid limitations of MST DR? (Choose two.)
- A. The Zero Compute configuration does not support an automated failover recovery plan.
- B. Both MST DR and Cluster Protect features can be configured together.
- C. Only AHV VMs are protected with MST. ESXi VMs are currently not supported.
- D. MST can be configured when Prism Central with synchronous replication or AHV Metro is configured.
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
Multicloud Snapshot Technology (MST)provides a cost-effective DR solution by offloading snapshots to cloud storage, but it has specific architectural limitations. First, it is currently limited to theAHV hypervisor; workloads running on ESXi are not supported for MST-based protection. Second, Nutanix allows for the simultaneous use of multiple protection layers; specifically,MST DR and Cluster Protectfeatures can be configured together to provide both local and remote resilience. It is also important to note that MST is designed for asynchronous recovery and is not compatible with Zero-RPO solutions like synchronous replication or AHV Metro at this time. Understanding these hypervisor and configuration constraints is essential when designing a disaster recovery strategy that relies on cloud object storage.
