Discuss Nutanix NCP-EUC Exam Topic 8 Question 53

An administrator is deploying a new virtual desktop environment onto an existing Nutanix solution.

The virtual desktop environment will consist of these elements:

1000 instant clone call center virtual desktops (supporting 5 business units)

500 full clone developer virtual desktops (supporting 2 business units)

150 applications delivered via AppStacks (supporting 7 business units)

How many storage containers should be created to support these workloads?

D14

Suggested Answer: C

Based on the given information, the administrator is deploying 1000 instant clone virtual desktops, 500 full clone virtual desktops, and 150 applications. To support these workloads, the Nutanix solution will need multiple storage containers.

According to the Nutanix Certified Professional - End User Computing (NCP-EUC) v6 guide, for VDI workloads, it is recommended to create a separate storage container for each type of desktop (e.g. instant clone, full clone) and another container for AppStacks. It is also recommended to have at least one container for metadata and one container for replicas.

Therefore, for this scenario, a total of 3 storage containers should be created:

One container for 1000 instant clone virtual desktops

One container for 500 full clone virtual desktops

One container for 150 applications delivered via AppStacks

So the answer is C. 3.

I agree with 3, it fits the workload nicely.

Tennie 10 months ago

Wait, 14? That seems way too high!

Dana 10 months ago

Definitely 2, that’s a good balance!

Tamar 10 months ago

I think 3 storage containers should cover it.

Beckie 10 months ago

Nah, I’m leaning towards 14. Seems safer.

Leonida 11 months ago

I’m leaning towards 2 containers, but I’m not confident. I wish I had reviewed the specifics on how to allocate them based on workloads.

Hillary 11 months ago

I feel like the number could be higher, maybe around 14, considering the different business units and applications involved.

Johnetta 11 months ago

I think we might need at least 3 containers, one for each type of workload, but I could be mixing it up with another practice question.

Reita 11 months ago

I remember we discussed storage containers in class, but I'm not sure how many we need for different types of desktops.

Derrick 11 months ago

Alright, I'm going to break this down step-by-step. The instant clone desktops are likely going to be the most space-efficient, so I'll start there. Then I'll factor in the full clone and AppStack requirements. I've got a strategy, let's do this!

Margot 12 months ago

I think the key here is to consider the different storage needs of the instant clone, full clone, and AppStack workloads. Each one might require a different approach in terms of container creation.

Daniel 12 months ago

I'm a bit confused on how the business units factor into this. Do we need to create a container for each business unit, or can we consolidate them?

Remona 12 months ago

Okay, let's see. We have 1000 instant clone call center desktops, 500 full clone developer desktops, and 150 AppStacks. I wonder if we need a separate container for each of those.

Daniel 1 year ago

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to think through the storage requirements for each of the virtual desktop types.

Annamaria 1 year ago

Why do you think that?

Lura 1 year ago

Hmm, 14 containers? That's more than the number of fingers I have. I'm going with 3 - it's the Goldilocks answer, not too many, not too few.

Malcolm 1 year ago

I disagree, I believe the answer is C) 3.

Annamaria 1 year ago

Because each workload type requires a separate storage container, so we need 14 in total.

Truman 1 year ago

14 containers? That's more containers than I have socks in my drawer. I'm sticking with 3 - one for each of the workloads. Seems like the most efficient way to go.

Lindsey 1 year ago

Why do you think that?

Annamaria 1 year ago

I think the answer is D) 14.

Eileen 1 year ago

Ah, the age-old question of container counting. I'm feeling lucky with 3 containers. Gotta keep those virtual desktops and apps separate, you know?

Goldie 1 year ago

↳ replying to Eileen

Let's go with 3 containers then, to be on the safe side.

Cristy 1 year ago

↳ replying to Eileen

I'm leaning towards 2 containers, but I see your point about separation.

Christiane 1 year ago

↳ replying to Eileen

I agree, it's important to keep the virtual desktops and apps separate for better management.

Elza 1 year ago

↳ replying to Eileen

I think 3 containers should be enough to support the workloads.

Brock 1 year ago

Wait, wait, wait... 14 containers? What is this, a container farm? I'm going with 2 containers - one for the VDs and one for the AppStacks. Seems like the logical choice to me.

Annita 1 year ago

↳ replying to Brock

I think 2 containers should be enough for this setup.

Twanna 1 year ago

Hmm, let's see... 1000 instant clone call center VDs, 500 full clone developer VDs, and 150 AppStacks. Gotta be at least 3 containers, right? That's my guess.

Leslie 1 year ago

↳ replying to Twanna

Yeah, 3 containers should be enough to support those workloads.

Dudley 1 year ago

↳ replying to Twanna

I think it's 3 containers too.
