[All NCA Questions]

What is Nutanix's scale-out storage technology that makes its hyperconverged platform possible?

ADistributed File Services

BDistributed Storage Fabric

CHDD/SDD Storage Tiers

DHot swappable NVMe/SSD

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

When uploading images from a local workstation to Prism Central, the destination cluster is determined based on the alphabetical order of the cluster names. Specifically, the first available cluster in alphabetical order is selected as the destination for the image upload.

This behavior is documented in the Prism Central Admin Guide, which states that when you upload an image to Prism Central, 'the image is stored in the first cluster that has sufficient space and starts with the letter that appears first in the image name.'

Hot swappable NVMe/SSD sounds cool, but not the right one here.

I don't recall the exact term, but I know it has to do with how Nutanix manages storage across nodes. Could it be something like Hot swappable NVMe/SSD?

I’m leaning towards A, but I could be mixing it up with another concept. There were so many terms to remember!

I think the answer might be B, Distributed Storage Fabric, but I'm not entirely sure. It sounds familiar from the study materials.

Hot swappable NVMe/SSD seems like a plausible answer, but I don't think that's the core scale-out technology. I'll have to double-check my understanding of Nutanix's hyperconverged platform.

Distributed File Services sounds like it could be right, but I'm not entirely confident. I'll make a note to research Nutanix's storage architecture more before the exam.
