A consultant creates a Nutanix cluster using the 10.10.10.0/24 network and VLAN 10. The customer creates a VM network inside the Prism using VLAN 20. The customer starts to create VMs but is unable to ping the default gateway from these new systems.What is causing the issue?

• The CVM/hypervisor must be on an untagged VLAN.
• The switch port is not set up as a trunk.
• Only one VLAN is supported on AHV.
• The CVM/hypervisor cannot use the same VLAN as guest VMs.

Where in the Support Portal can it be determined if a version of AOS is supported on a particular hardware platform.

• Solution Documentation
• Upgrade Paths
• Hardware Compatibility Lists
• Compatibility and Interoperability Matrix

An administrator is trying to correct high cluster IOPs and Cluster Controller Latency. Networking is the suspected issue.Which networking parameters should be configured in the Nutanix cluster?

• Bond State and network latency
• Number of NICs connected and network latency.
• Number of NICs connected and frame size
• Number of NICs connected and bond state.

A customer has provided the following network requirements to their consultant during a discovery session for AHV cluster deployments:* Maximum Uptime Guest Traffic is a Hard Requirement* Maximum Throughput for Guest is a Hard Requirement* Link Aggregation is established at the TORsCluster nodes have the following network card configurations:* 2 x 40GbE Adapters* 2 x IGbE AdaptersHow should the consultant satisfy these requirements?

• Bonded 2 x 40GbE Adapters with LACP Disabled for Storage Traffic and Guest Traffic using balance-sib
• Bonded 2 x 1 GbE Adapters with LACP Enabled for Storage Traffic and Bonded 2 x 40 GbE Adapters for Guest VM Traffic using balance-tcp
• Bonded 2 x 40GbE Adapters with LACP Enabled for Storage Traffic and Guest Traffic using balance-tcp
• Bonded 2 x 40GbE Adapters with LACP Disabled for Storage Traffic and bonded 2x1 GbE Adapters for Guest VM Traffic using active-backup

A consultant is setting up a new install of Nutanix Files for a customer, but receives this error when attempting to join the customer's Active Directory domain:File Server <FileServerName> could not join the Domain because User credentials failed with error Unable to connect to WORKGROUP ads_connect: No logon serversThe consultant has already verified the domain credentials provided by the customer are valid and have the correct permissions.What is the most likely cause in this scenario for a domain-join failure when setting up Nutanix Files?

• The FSVMs storage network must be in the same network as the logon servers.
• The client network is failing to communicate with the customer's domain controllers due to mismatched MTU sizes.
• The client network is failing to communicate with the customer's domain controllers due to a missing network firewall port requirement.
• The FSVMs must first be manually added to a site mapping in Active Directory before they can be authorized to communicate with the logon servers.

An administrator finds that home shares cannot be configured in a new Files 3.5 deployment. Why is this happening?

• NFS default access is set to Read Only.
• Multi-protocol access is not configured.
• Access Based Enumeration is not enabled.
• The system is deployed as a single FSVM.

A consultant creates three storage containers (container-1, container-2, container-3). The customer requires that only container-1, which will be utilized as an NFS datastore, be presented to external hosts.However, users are able to mount all three containers.What is causing this problem?

• Compression was turned on for all containers.
• A Container-level whitelist entry was configured.
• Deduplication was turned on for all containers.
• A Global whitelist entry was configured.

A consultant is running Foundation discovery with Foundation VM and is unable to dynamically discover the nodes. The consumer needs another method to image the nodes.What information does the consultant need to do bare metal Foundation?

• Serial # of Block
• IPMI MAC Address
• LAN MAC Address
• Serial # of Node

After uploading a hypervisor ISO during the Foundation process, a consultant sees a message that the MD5 sum for the hypervisor is not found in the Whitelist file.Which step should the consultant take next to resolve this issue?

• Download the hypervisor ISO again from the vendor website.
• Restart the Foundation process and upload the hypervisor again.
• Download the latest hypervisor ISO whitelist file from Nutanix portal.
• Check the hypervisor version in the Nutanix Compatibility Matrix.

An administrator needs to install prism central for their 2550 multi-cluster environment.How should they deploy the application?

• Deploy a large 3-VM Prism Central instance
• Deploy a large 1-VM Prism Central instance.
• Deploy a small 3-VM Prism Central instance.
• Deploy a small 1-VM Prism Central instance.
