Nutanix NCP-EUC Exam - Topic 5 Question 57 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-EUC exam

Question #: 57
Topic #: 5

An administrator has received multiple tickets from users experiencing log-on and log-off slowness while using VDI non-persistent desktops, other users in same VDI farm using persistent desktops are not experiencing the same issue.

Currently, the administrator is levering an ESXi-based Nutanix all-flash cluster environment with a VMware Horizon Infrastructure.

What is causing the slowness for the non-persistent users?

ANutanix AOS software running older versions.

Buser accounts configured with Roaming Profiles

CDesktops don't have enough hardware resources.

DNetwork slowness due to high latency

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

roaming profiles are a way to deliver user settings across physical and virtual desktops.However, they can also cause issues such as profile unload failures2and slow log-on and log-off times1.

A is also possible. Older Nutanix AOS could slow things down.

I agree, but what about D? Network latency could be a factor.

I think it's C. Non-persistent desktops might lack resources.

Older Nutanix AOS versions? Not sure that's the main problem.

Wait, are non-persistent desktops really that much slower?

Network latency could be the culprit too.

Definitely think it's a hardware resource issue.

I heard Roaming Profiles can slow things down.

Haha, I bet the users are just trying to log in and out really fast, that's why it's slow! Option C is the winner.

D could also be a factor, but hardware resources are probably the main culprit here. Gotta love those VDI challenges!

I agree, C is the way to go. Non-persistent desktops need more oomph to keep up with those persistent ones.

I thought Nutanix AOS updates were important, but I can't recall if older versions directly impact logon times.

I feel like we practiced a question about network latency affecting VDI performance. Could that be the issue here?

I’m not entirely sure, but I think hardware resources could be a factor. If the desktops are under-provisioned, that might explain the slowness.

I remember we discussed how Roaming Profiles can sometimes cause logon delays, especially in non-persistent setups.

I'm pretty confident the answer is B - user accounts configured with Roaming Profiles. That's a known issue that can cause performance problems, especially for non-persistent desktops.

Well, the options given seem to point to a few potential culprits. I'm leaning towards C - not enough hardware resources for the non-persistent desktops. That could definitely cause slowness during log-on and log-off.

I'm a bit confused by the question. Is it asking us to identify the root cause of the slowness, or just the most likely cause from the options provided?

Option C is the correct answer. Desktops without enough hardware resources can definitely cause slowness during log-on and log-off.

Okay, let's see. The fact that the persistent desktop users aren't experiencing the same issue rules out some more general problems with the infrastructure, so I'm thinking it's likely something specific to the non-persistent desktops.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'm going to need to think through the different factors that could be causing the slowness for the non-persistent users.

Could it be the hardware resources? Non-persistent might need more power.
