NCP-US-6.5 Online Practice Questions and Answers

Correct Answer: C

Explanation: The administrator can achieve this request by deleting and recreating a new Objects store with the updated name. Objects is a feature that allows users to create and manage object storage clusters on a Nutanix cluster. Objects clusters can provide S3- compatible access to buckets and objects for various applications and users. Objects clusters can be created and configured in Prism Central. However, once an Objects cluster is created, its name cannot be changed or edited. Therefore, the only way to change the name of an Objects cluster is to delete the existing cluster and create a new cluster with the updated name.

Correct Answer: C

Explanation: The Nutanix-enabled technology that meets these requirements is Objects -WORM with versioning. WORM (Write-Once Read-Many) is a feature that prevents anyone from modifying or deleting data in a bucket while the policy is active. WORM policies help comply with strict data retention regulations that mandate how long specific data must be stored. Versioning is a feature that keeps multiple versions of an object in a bucket whenever it is overwritten or deleted. Versioning policies help preserve previous versions of an object for backup or recovery purposes. By enabling WORM and versioning for an Objects bucket, the administrator can ensure that data is kept for two years without being deleted or overwritten.

Correct Answer: B

Explanation: With the settings shown on the exhibit, if there were 1000 files in the repository, 10 files would have to be deleted within an hour to trigger an anomaly alert to the administrator. Anomaly alert is a feature that notifies the administrator when there is an unusual or suspicious activity on file data, such as mass deletion or encryption. Anomaly alert can be configured with various parameters, such as threshold percentage, time window, minimum number of files, and so on. In this case, the threshold percentage is set to 1%, which means that if more than 1% of files in a repository are deleted within an hour, an anomaly alert will be triggered. Since there are 1000 files in the repository, 1% of them is 10 files. Therefore, if 10 or more files are deleted within an hour, an anomaly alert will be sent to the administrator.

Correct Answer: D

Explanation: The protocols that are supported by Files are SMBv2, SMBv3, NFSv3, and NFSv4. SMB (Server Message Block) is a protocol that allows clients to access files, printers, and other resources on a network. NFS (Network File System) is a protocol that allows clients to access files on a remote server as if they were local. Files supports both SMB and NFS protocols for creating shares and exports that can be accessed by different types of clients. References: Nutanix Files Administration Guide, page 31; Nutanix Files Solution Guide, page 6

Correct Answer: B

Explanation: This metric indicates the number of active clients that are accessing the Files cluster via SMB protocol, which affects the performance of the Files cluster. NFS concurrent connections is also a relevant metric, but it is not the best answer, as it only applies to NFS protocol, not SMB. The quantity of SMB shares or NFS exports does not directly affect the performance of the Files cluster, as they are logical entities that do not consume resources.

Correct Answer: D

Explanation: Before upgrading Objects Manager, the administrator must upgrade AOS to the latest version. AOS is the core operating system that runs on each node in a Nutanix cluster and provides the foundation for Objects Manager and Objects service. Upgrading AOS will ensure compatibility and stability for Objects components. References: Nutanix Objects Administration Guide, Acropolis Operating System Upgrade Guide

Correct Answer: C

Explanation: The delay before compression begins on the Files container is 12 hours. Compression is a feature that reduces the storage space required for data by applying an algorithm that eliminates redundant or unnecessary bits. Compression can improve the storage efficiency and performance of Files. Compression is enabled by default on the Files container and runs in the background as a low-priority task. Compression does not start immediately after an AOS upgrade, but waits for 12 hours to avoid interfering with other high-priority tasks or operations.

Correct Answer: B

Explanation: File Analytics is a feature that provides insights into the data stored in Files, such as file types, sizes, owners, permissions, and access patterns. File Analytics is deployed as a VM on an AHV cluster using a QCOW2 binary image file that contains the File Analytics software and configuration3. References: Nutanix File Analytics Administration Guide3

Correct Answer: BC

Explanation: The two network requirements for a four-node FSVM deployment are five available IP addresses on the Client network and five available IP addresses on the Storage network. The Client network is used for communication between the FSVMs and the clients, while the Storage network is used for communication between the FSVMs and the CVMs. For each FSVM, one Client IP and one Storage IP are required. Additionally, one extra Client IP is required for the file server VIP (Virtual IP), which is used as a single point of access for all shares and exports on the file server.

Correct Answer: D

Explanation: Nutanix File Analytics is a feature that provides insights into the usage and activity of file data stored on Nutanix 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. The FAVM collects metadata and statistics from the FSVMs and displays them in a graphical user interface (GUI). The FAVM must be deployed on the same network as the FSVMs, which is the Client-side network. This network is used for communication between File Analytics and FSVMs, as well as for accessing the File Analytics UI from a web browser. The Client-side network must have DHCP enabled and must be routable from the external hosts that access the file shares and File Analytics UI.
