NCP-CN Exam Dumps : Nutanix Certified Professional - Cloud Native (NCP-CN-6.10)

The NKPA course clarifies that NKP licenses are based on the number of CPU cores in the infrastructure hosting the Kubernetes clusters. This licensing model applies to both on-premises (e.g., Nutanix AHV) and cloud-based deployments. The Nutanix Cloud Native (NCP-CN) 6.10 Study Guide states: “NKP licenses are obtained based on the total number of CPU cores allocated to the clusters managed by the platform.” This core-based licensing ensures flexibility across different infrastructure types while aligning with the resource consumption of Kubernetes workloads.

Incorrect Options:

A. Flash: Flash storage is not a licensing unit for NKP.

B. CPU Sockets: Nutanix licenses for other products may use sockets, but NKP uses cores.

C. TiBs: Terabytes are used for storage licensing, not NKP.

The NKPA course outlines the process for deploying an NKP cluster on Nutanix AHV infrastructure using the NKP CLI. For a prompt-based deployment, where the administrator is guided through configuration options interactively, the correct command is nkp create cluster ahv. This command initiates the deployment of an NKP cluster on the AHV hypervisor, prompting the administrator to input details like cluster name, node counts, and networking settings.

The Nutanix Cloud Native (NCP-CN) 6.10 Study Guide states: “To deploy an NKP cluster on AHV using the prompt-based CLI method, use nkp create cluster ahv, which guides the administrator through the configuration process.” The command is specific to the AHV hypervisor (part of AOS 6.10) and is suitable for the specified hardware (NX-8170-G9 nodes).

Incorrect Options:

A. nkp create cluster nutanix: The provider is specified as ahv, not nutanix, in the NKP CLI syntax.

C. nkp create nodepool nutanix: This creates a node pool, not a cluster, and is not prompt-based.

D. nkp install kommander: Kommander is a management component, not used for cluster creation on AHV.

The NKPA course emphasizes that NKP supports multi-tenancy through workspaces, each of which can be configured with its own Identity Provider (IdP) for authentication. In this scenario, each group (Fin VD, Fin Insurance, Fin Travel) has its own IdP, and the engineer has created separate workspaces for them. To assign the Tenant Administrators role, the engineer must configure a dedicated IdP for each group’s workspace, enabling users to authenticate via their group-specific IdP and assume the Tenant Administrator role.

The course details that NKP uses Dex as the OIDC provider to integrate with external IdPs. For each workspace, the engineer configures a Dex connector to the group’s IdP, maps the IdP groups to NKP roles (e.g., Tenant Administrator), and assigns permissions via role bindings. The Nutanix Cloud Native (NCP-CN) 6.10 Study Guide states: “To assign Tenant Administrator roles in NKP, configure a dedicated IdP for each workspace using Dex connectors, mapping IdP groups to the appropriate roles for workspace management.” This ensures that each group’s administrators can access only their designated workspace.

Incorrect Options:

B. Create a role named admin-tenant-X: NKP uses predefined roles like Tenant Administrator, not custom roles with specific naming conventions.

C. Create a role binding and assign it: Role bindings are part of the process, but the primary step is configuring the IdP for authentication, as per the NKPA course.

D. Configure the global Active Directory: The scenario specifies separate IdPs per group, not a global Active Directory for all groups.
