Nutanix NCP-MCI Exam - Topic 6 Question 12 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-MCI exam

Question #: 12
Topic #: 6

In Files, how many FSVMs are deployed by default?

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, B

According to the Nutanix Volumes - Recommendations And Best Practices web search result3, two actions that the administrator should take when designing the Volume Group are:

Distribute workload across multiple virtual disks: Use multiple disks rather than a single large disk for an application. Consider using a minimum of one disk per Nutanix node to distribute the workload across all nodes in a cluster. Multiple disks per Nutanix node may also improve an application's performance. For performance-intensive environments, we recommend using between four and eight disks per CVM for a given workload.

Enable RSS (Receive Side Scaling): Receive-side scaling (RSS) allows the system to use multiple CPUs for network activity. With RSS enabled, multiple CPU cores process network traffic, preventing a single CPU core from becoming a bottleneck. Enabling RSS within hosts can be beneficial for heavy iSCSI workloads. For VMs running in ESXi environments, RSS requires VMXNET3 VNICs. For Hyper-V environments, enable VMQ to take full advantage of Virtual RSS.

Yeah, 2 makes sense for most setups.

I’m leaning towards 2 as the answer, but I can’t shake the feeling that it might be 5.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I believe the answer was 1. I hope that’s correct!

I think I remember something about FSVMs, but I'm not entirely sure how many are deployed by default. Was it 2?

This is a straightforward question, I think. I'll review the information I have about the default deployment of FSVMs in Files and select the correct answer.

I'm a bit confused by this question. I don't have much experience with the Files service, so I'll need to do some research to figure this out.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the default configuration of Files to determine the right answer.

This seems straightforward to me. Preemptible VMs are cheaper, but less reliable, so we want an application that can handle that. A distributed, eventually consistent NoSQL database with sufficient quorum would be perfect. I'm choosing C.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The risk register could contain a lot of different information, so I'll need to think through each option carefully to determine the best answer.

Okay, let's see. The question says the configuration is set up correctly, so the issue must be with how the virtual hosts are defined. I'll need to consider the different options carefully.
