Nutanix NCS-Core - Nutanix Certified Services Core Infrastructure Professional (NCS-Core 6.8)
A consultant will be doing an install for an enterprise customer. The consultant has racked up, powered on, and connected their Foundation software to the new nodes. The Foundation VM is not discovering the hardware.
What should the consultant do to resolve this issue?
A customer wants to know the details of network validation testing.
Where can the consultant find this information?
A consultant creates a four-node AHV cluster with two 1GbE (eth0, etc1) and two 10GbE (eth2, eth3) NICs per node. The 1GbE NICs will not be placed into service, but the customer wants the network to be preconfigured for their eventual use.
The consultant removes the 1GbE NIC from the default bond and creates a second bridge(br1), but is unable to add the 1GbE NIC using the below command:
manage_ovs –bridge_name br1 –interfaces 1g –bond_name br1-up update_uplinks
Which parameter is missing from this command?
A consultant is onsite with a customer running Foundation VM (FVM) and discovers that there is no connectivity between the FVM and their laptop. The consultant verifies the following:
* The consultant’s laptop and Nutanix nodes are plugged into a flat switch.
* The laptop, switch and nodes are plugged into supported power supplies.
* The laptop network adapters and FVM are configured with their corresponding IP addresses.
What is the cause for the connectivity failure to the FVM?
An administrator receives an alert in Prism indicating that interface eth2, on an AHV host is receiving many CRC errors. After togging into the problematic host, the following command is run to show the indicated output:

What is causing this issue?
An administrator is planning to deploy a Nutanix cluster to support a few high-performance VMs. This deployment will have the following considerations:
• Individual VMs will likely generate network throughputs in the range of 90-100Mbps
• Due to the configuration of the VMs, it is unlikely that a node will host more than one or two of them at a time
• Individual VMs will communicate with only a few (one or two) remote hosts at a time
• Multicast will not be used in the environment
• The hosts are connected via two 1GbE network connections
How should the administrator configure the network bonds to meet this requirement while maintaining the simplest switch configuration?
An administrator receives an error indicating that the CVMs in the cluster are not syncing to any NTP servers. An investigation of the issue finds:
• The NTP servers are configured in Prism
• The time on all CVMs is the same
• Both the CVMs and AHV hosts are configured for the UTC time zone
Which two steps can be taken to troubleshoot this issue? (Choose two.)
While preparing for a new four-node cluster installation, the consultant has a Tech Review Call with the customer. The hardware is as follows:
* 4 nodes in 1 Block
* 8 x 10 GbE Ports
* 4 x 1 GbE IPMI Ports
* Adequate Ethernet ports are available
* Ethernet cables are correct and available
* Adequate rack space is available
Which remaining item must be confirmed as available onsite?
A consultant and customer agree on a scope of services regarding the deployment of a new Nutanix cluster.
Which two products does this scope apply to? (Choose two.)
A customer recently set up Async Replication between Site A and Site B. The customer wants to conduct a planned failover and clicks Activate on Site B.
The customer then runs the following command on Site A:
ncli pd deactivate_and__destroy_vms name=
What does this do to the customer environment?
