NCP-MCA Exam Dumps : Nutanix Certified Professional - Multicloud Automation (NCP-MCA 6.10) Exam

The "Environment" construct in Nutanix Self-Service is designed specifically to abstract infrastructure details from the end user while ensuring correct placement.

Within a single Project, an administrator can define multipleEnvironments(e.g., "Development" and "Production").

TheDevelopment Environmentis configured to map to theDevelopment Clusterand its associated networks.

TheProduction Environmentis configured to map to theProduction Clusterand its associated networks.

When a blueprint is launched, the user (or the application profile) simply selects the target Environment. The Self-Service engine then automatically directs the provisioning to the specific cluster defined in that Environment's settings, ensuring correct placement without requiring the user to know cluster details or manual intervention.

To successfully enable and deploy Nutanix Self-Service (formerly Calm), thePrism Centralinstance must have a configuredFully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN).

Requirement:The Self-Service engine (Calm) runs as a set of containerized microservices. These services rely on internal certificates for secure communication and ingress routing.

Validation:During the enablement of the Self-Service feature, Prism Central validates that an FQDN is configured. If only an IP address is used, the enablement process may fail or the services may not function correctly because the certificate generation process requires a valid hostname to establish trust.

Contrast:While Network Segmentation (A) and SNMP (C) are supported features, they are not mandatory prerequisites for the basic deployment of the Self-Service engine.

To ensure a Playbook executes at a specific resource threshold (95% Memory), the administrator must link the Playbook to anAlert Policydefined with that specific threshold.

Relationship between Alerts and Playbooks:In Nutanix Intelligent Operations (X-Play), Playbooks are typically event-driven. The most common trigger is theAlerttrigger. The Playbook itself does not define the threshold (e.g., "95%"); rather, it waits for an Alert to fire.

Configuration:The administrator must configure a specific Alert Policy (e.g., "Critical Memory Usage") in Prism Central to trigger when Memory Usage exceeds 95%.

The Solution:By selecting"Change Trigger to be based off Critical Memory Usage Alert"(Option B), the administrator ensures the Playbook reacts specifically to the alert that corresponds to the 95% threshold. If the system was previously alerting at 100%, it implies the Playbook was linked to a different or default policy. Switching the trigger to the correct "Critical" policy (configured for 95%) solves the issue.

Autopilot (Option A):Autopilot is used totuneinfrastructure limits (like adding CPU/Memory) based on KPI targetsaftera playbook runs; it does not trigger the initial remediation playbook itself.
