Discuss Nutanix NCP-US Exam Topic 1 Question 47

After configuring Smart DR, an administrator is unable see the policy in the Policies tab. The administrator has confirmed that all FSVMs are able to connect to Prism Central via port 9440 bidirectional.

What is the possible reason for this issue?

AThe primary and recovery file servers do not have the same protocols.

BPort 7575 should be open for all External/Client IPS of FSVMs on the Source and Target cluster.

CThe primary and recovery file servers do not have the same version.

DPort 7575 should be open for all Internal/Storage IPs of FSVMs on the Source and Target.

Suggested Answer: A

File Analytics is a feature that provides insights into the data stored in Files, such as file types, sizes, owners, permissions, and access patterns. File Analytics also provides security against ransomware attacks by scanning files for ransomware in real time and providing notification in the event of a ransomware attack.File Analytics can detect ransomware based on file extensions, file signatures, or third-party solutions2.

Just to clarify, is port 7575 really required for Internal/Storage IPs?

Karol 11 months ago

I doubt it's the protocols, seems unlikely to cause this.

Angella 11 months ago

Wait, are we sure it's not a version mismatch? Option C could be it.

Kenia 11 months ago

Definitely agree with that, had the same issue before!

Hershel 11 months ago

I think it might be option B, port 7575 needs to be open.

Adela 11 months ago

I’m leaning towards the idea that port 7575 needs to be open for internal IPs, but I might be mixing it up with another scenario we practiced.

Geoffrey 12 months ago

The version mismatch between the primary and recovery file servers sounds familiar. I feel like that could definitely cause issues with visibility.

Angella 12 months ago

I think I saw a practice question about needing to open port 7575 for communication, but I can't recall if it was for internal or external IPs.

I remember something about the protocols needing to match, but I'm not sure if that's the main issue here.

Ah, I see. This seems to be a common issue with Smart DR. My guess is that the port 7575 configuration is the culprit. I'd recommend checking that the port is open for the correct IP addresses on both the source and target clusters.

I think the key here is to focus on the file server configuration. The question mentions that the administrator is unable to see the policy, so it's likely related to the file server setup. I'd start by double-checking the protocol and version compatibility.

I'm a bit confused here. If the FSVMs can connect to Prism Central, then the port 9440 connectivity seems to be working. Maybe it's something to do with the protocols or the port 7575 configuration.

Latanya 1 year ago

Okay, let's see. The administrator has confirmed connectivity to Prism Central, so that's not the issue. I'm wondering if it could be a version mismatch between the primary and recovery file servers.

Cassandra 1 year ago

Hmm, this one seems tricky. I'll need to carefully review the information provided and think through the possible reasons.

Rolland 1 year ago

I'm leaning towards D. If the internal/storage IPs aren't open, then the FSVM communication is going to be blocked, and that could definitely cause the policy to not show up.

Ha! Gotta love these networking questions. I bet the real issue is that one of the admins forgot to disable the firewall on their toaster. Classic!

Check if the policies are properly configured.

Could be a network configuration issue.

Maybe there is a firewall blocking the connection.

Paris 1 year ago

I'm not sure about this one. Are the primary and recovery file servers really supposed to have the same version? I thought that was just for the FSVM itself.

Check if the Smart DR configuration was done correctly to ensure the policies are visible.

It could be a compatibility issue between the primary and recovery file servers.

↳ replying to Paris

Maybe there is a network issue causing the policies not to show up.

I think the answer is B. Port 7575 is the key for Smart DR to work properly, so if it's not open, the policy won't show up in the Policies tab.

Nan 1 year ago

True, but I still think the key is ensuring Port 7575 is open for all External/Client IPs of FSVMs.

Gail 1 year ago

↳ replying to Raylene

That could also be a possible reason for the issue.

Aron 1 year ago

↳ replying to Raylene

But what if the primary and recovery file servers do not have the same version?

Sheridan 1 year ago

↳ replying to Raylene

I believe the answer is B. Port 7575 needs to be open for Smart DR to function correctly.

Quentin 2 years ago

I'm not sure, but option D also seems like a valid reason for the issue.

Vincent 2 years ago

I agree with Hershel, port 7575 should be open for all External/Client IPs of FSVMs.

Hershel 2 years ago

I think the possible reason could be option B.
