Discuss Nutanix NCP-US Exam Topic 6 Question 37

Deploying Files instances require which two minimum resources? (Choose two)

A12 GiB of memory per host

B8 vCPUs per host

C8 GiB of memory per host

D4 vCPUs per host

Suggested Answer: C, D

The two minimum resources that are required for deploying Files instances are 8 GiB of memory per host and 4 vCPUs per host. Memory and vCPUs are resources that are allocated to VMs (Virtual Machines) to run applications and processes. Files instances are file server instances (FSIs) that run on FSVMs (File Server VMs) on a Nutanix cluster. FSVMs require at least 8 GiB of memory and 4 vCPUs per host to function properly and provide SMB and NFS access to file shares and exports. The administrator should ensure that there are enough memory and vCPUs available on each host before deploying Files instances.Reference:Nutanix Files Administration Guide, page 27; Nutanix Files Solution Guide, page 6

I agree, 12 GiB is a must for performance!

Leota 11 months ago

8 GiB of memory sounds too low for this.

Laila 11 months ago

Wait, are we sure about those numbers?

Tatum 11 months ago

I think it's 8 vCPUs per host too.

Dacia 11 months ago

Definitely 12 GiB of memory per host!

Golda 11 months ago

I feel like it could be 8 GiB of memory and 4 vCPUs, but I might be mixing it up with another topic.

Samira 12 months ago

I practiced a similar question, and I believe it was 12 GiB of memory and 8 vCPUs.

Gerald 12 months ago

I remember something about needing at least 4 vCPUs, but I can't recall the memory part clearly.

Veda 1 year ago

I think the minimum memory requirement is 8 GiB, but I'm not sure about the vCPUs.

This is a tricky one. I'm not entirely confident in my knowledge of the resource requirements for Files instances. I'll have to review my notes and try to eliminate the options that don't seem right.

Rima 1 year ago

Okay, I've got this. The key is to identify the two minimum resources required, not the recommended or optimal resources. I'll carefully consider each option and select the two that meet the minimum requirements.

Elvera 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know Files instances require certain resources, but I can't quite recall the exact minimums. I'll have to think this through step-by-step.

Lera 1 year ago

This looks like a straightforward resource requirement question. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about the minimum resources needed to deploy Files instances.

I'm pretty sure capacity planning happens during the supply planning phase of the S&OP process, so I'll go with option B.

4 vCPUs? What is this, a Raspberry Pi? I need at least 8 to make my files dance on the server.

↳ replying to Velda

B) 8 vCPUs per host

A) 12 GiB of memory per host

Okay, 8 vCPUs and 8 GiB of memory sounds pretty reasonable to me. It's not too much, but enough to get the job done.

Whoa, 12 GiB of memory? That's a lot of RAM for a simple file deployment. I bet the engineers who came up with this were high on coffee or something.

Yeah, that does seem like a lot of memory for a file deployment.

Isaac 2 years ago

But A and C make more sense because deploying files requires more memory.

Evangelina 2 years ago

I disagree, I believe it's B and D.

Isaac 2 years ago

I think it's A and C.
