Provision storage on the Nutanix cluster by creating a volume group. Create a client whitelist to enable access to the volume group by using the IP addresses or client initiator IQNs in a whitelist (as part of the volume group configuration). Create a secret for the volume group if you are using CHAP authentication.

If I was the administrator, I'd bring down the host with a sledgehammer. That's the only way to be sure it's really down for maintenance.

A) Execute the cvm_shutdown -P new command from the CVM.

Fever off Server? What is this, a hospital emergency? I'll stick with option C and hope the IPMI console knows what it's doing.

Hold up, why would you enter 'Fewer' off Server? That's not even a real command. I'm going with option A, cvm_shutdown -P new.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Doesn't the question say the administrator needs to bring down the host? Seems like option D might be more appropriate.

I think option C is the way to go. Orderly shutdown from the IPMI console sounds like the safest bet.

I'm not sure, but I think option A makes sense because it specifies a new command for shutting down the CVM.

I agree with Theodora, that sounds like the most orderly shutdown option.
