Nutanix Exam NCP-MCA Topic 12 Question 54 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-MCA exam
Question #: 54
Topic #: 12
[All NCP-MCA Questions]

An administrator wants to be alerted when production VMs become idle. The VMs will be determined to be idle when CPU usage is lower than 5% for more than 5 minutes. All affected VMs are categorized as Environment:Production, since they have Flow microsegmentation rules.

What should the administrator do to satisfy this requirement?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

To view the last two actions taken by a single VM blueprint, the administrator should go to theHistory Tab. This tab shows the history of all the actions performed on the blueprint, such as launch, update, delete, etc. The administrator can filter the history by date, action, status, and user. The history tab also provides details of each action, such as the start time, end time, duration, and logs.

The other three options are not correct because:

The AMIS tab shows the list of Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) that are available for the blueprint. The administrator can use this tab to select an AMI for the blueprint or create a custom AMI.

The service tab shows the list of services that are part of the blueprint. The administrator can use this tab to add, edit, or delete services, as well as configure the dependencies, tasks, and variables for each service.

The Metrics tab shows the performance metrics of the blueprint, such as CPU, memory, disk, and network usage. The administrator can use this tab to monitor the health and performance of the blueprint and its services.Reference:

Option D is the clear winner here. Anything involving 'reducing CPU' on an idle VM is like trying to lose weight by cutting off your own limbs. Gotta keep it simple, folks!

I'm a bit curious about the 'Flow microsegmentation rules' mentioned in the question. Sounds like someone's been watching too much 'Tron' during their lunch breaks.

Option C is a bit bizarre. Reducing CPU on an idle VM? That's like trying to put out a fire with gasoline. Definitely D is the correct answer here.

Option D makes the most sense. It's important to set up the alert for the correct category of VMs.

Yeah, reducing CPU on an idle VM is counterintuitive. D is the logical choice.

Option B sounds tempting, but taking a snapshot might be overkill for this use case. I think D is the way to go - simple and effective.

I'm not sure, but I think option A could also work. Creating an alert for all VMs and sending an email as the action seems like a good approach.

I disagree, I believe the answer is D. We should create an alert for VMs in the correct category and send an email as the action.

I think the answer is B. We need to create an alert for VMs in the correct category and take a snapshot when they become idle.
