Nutanix Exam NCS-Core Topic 3 Question 78 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCS-Core exam

Question #: 78
Topic #: 3

During Foundation, all nodes are imaged successfully. The cluster creation step fails. The consultant troubleshoots the issue and verifies that all Hosts and CVMs are up and running and responding to network pings.

Which method should the consultant select to create the cluster?

ALog into one of the hosts and run the cluster create command.

BImage the Bare Metal nodes.

CLog into one of the CVMs and run the cluster create command.

DFactory reset the nodes and re-start the Foundation process.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

To resolve inconsistent network speeds from the VMs on an AHV host equipped with both 10G and 25G NICs, the consultant should configure all network interfaces with Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) on the same virtual switch. This configuration will allow for better load balancing and bandwidth aggregation across multiple network interfaces, improving overall network throughput and reducing bottlenecks. Reference:

Hey, at least we're not dealing with a cluster of clucking chickens here, right? Time to create a real cluster, folks!

Hmm, Option B? Imaging the Bare Metal nodes? Sounds like a great way to get a fresh start and really make sure everything is set up right.

I'd have to go with Option D. Starting the Foundation process over seems like the safest bet to ensure everything is set up correctly.

Let's go ahead and factory reset the nodes.

I'm leaning towards Option A. Logging into the host and running the command directly seems like a more straightforward approach.

I think that could work too, as long as the CVMs are up and running properly.

Option C is the way to go. Logging into the CVM and running the cluster create command is the logical step since the hosts and CVMs are already up and running.
