An administrator has a custom backup application that requires a 2TB disk and runs in Windows. Throughput is considerably lower than expected.
The application was installed on a VM with the following configuration:
• Four vCPUs with one core/vCPU
• 4GB of Memory
• One 50GB vDisk for the Windows installation
• One 2TB vDisk for the application
What is the recommended configuration change to improve throughput?
An administrator needs to replace an aging SAN and move to a hyper-converged infrastructure. The existing environment consists of the following hosts that are connected to the SAN:
• 5xAIX hosts
• 3x Hyper-V hosts
• 9xESXi hosts
• 2x physical SQL Clusters (Windows Server 2012R2 hosts)
After deploying a Nutanix AHV cluster, which two actions should the administrator take to meet the requirements? (Choose two.)
Refer to the exhibit.
An administrator creates a security policy that isolates their financial application from accessing the Internet When viewing the policy in Prism Central, several connections from the application are outbound to the Internet.
What is causing this issue with the policy?
A customer wants to run SAP HANA on a Nutanix cluster with the following characteristics:
• AHV nodes
• SAP HANA version 2
• Production database files
Which configuration should be recommended to the customer?
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?
An administrator configure Active Directory (AD) authentication for their Nutanix environment. When login in using an AD user account, the login process takes more than one minute to complete. No delay occurs when logging a local account.
What should the administrator confirm to resolve this issue?
Refer to the exhibit.
A Nutanix host is connected as shown in the exhibit with br0-up set to active/backup. Physical Switch 1 experiences a power outage causing br0-up to failover to using eth2. The CVM and host become inaccessible. User VMs restart on other hosts in the cluster, which causes a disruption to those VMs.
Which configuration issue likely caused this outage?
A customer has a four-node cluster and is using Volume Groups to provide storage services to a SQL cluster.
In the event of a CVM failure in the cluster, what is the expected IO path of the volume group’s iSCSI targets?
An administrator is migrating 5MB shares from a third-party platform to Nutanix Files with the following characteristics:
• Shares contain user profile directories
• DFS-N will be used
How should the administrator create target shares for this migration?
An administrator deploys Exchange on a Nutanix cluster. The administrator creates two containers with RF2 configuration:
• One container for Exchange
• One container for the other VMs
The Exchange VM is experiencing I/O performance issues.
Which changes to Storage Optimization should be used on the Exchange container to enhance I/O performance?
An administrator inherits a new Nutanix environment and logs in to a CVM to check the network configuration. The configuration is as follows:
Which action should the administrator take to improve network performance?
After the migration, some SQL queries take longer to execute than prior to migration.
The following SQL best practices were applied while creating the SQL VM on Nutanix:
•8 vDisks per SQL server VM
•Database and Log files on separate vDisk
•2 TempDB database drives and 1 TempDB log drive
What should the administrator to do improve the SQL Server performance?
Refer to the exhibit.
An administrator logs in to Prism and sees the status shown in the exhibit within the Hardware Diagram section.
What should the administrator do?
