To allow Nutanix Support to gather logs automatically without requiring manual intervention, the administrator should enablePulse. Pulse is a telemetry service that collects and sends system health, log, and usage data to Nutanix Support securely.

Steps:

Navigate toPrism Central > Settings > Pulse.

Enable the service and configure as required for your environment.

Other options:

Self-Service: Refers to role-based access for users, unrelated to log collection.

Proxy Server: Used for network communication, not log gathering.

NKP: Refers to Nutanix Cluster Protocol, unrelated to telemetry.

Nutanix AHV (Acropolis Hypervisor) supports integrated IP address management (IPAM) as a built-in feature. IPAM allows administrators to dynamically allocate and manage IP addresses for VMs within a network segment. This functionality simplifies network management by automating the assignment of IPs without relying on external DHCP servers.

A. ESXi:Incorrect, as ESXi does not include built-in IPAM.

B. Hyper-V:Incorrect, as Hyper-V lacks integrated IPAM functionality.

C. AHV:Correct, as AHV has built-in IPAM for automated IP address allocation.

D. XenServer:Incorrect, as XenServer does not support integrated IPAM.

The correct answer isD. Flow Virtual Networking (FVN).

Flow Virtual Networking (FVN)is a Nutanix solution that enablesadvanced network virtualization, including:

VPCs (Virtual Private Clouds)

Overlapping IP address spaces

Self-service network provisioning

Multi-tenancy support

Microsegmentation

FVN abstracts physical networking and allows tenants to manageisolated logical networks, providing cloud-like networking capabilities directly integrated with AHV.

Clarifications:

A. Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP):Orchestrates containers; does not provide virtualized network infrastructure.

B. Flow Network Security:Focuses onmicrosegmentationandpolicy enforcement, not on VPC or L3 abstraction.

C. Nutanix Database Service (NDB):Manages DBaaS; not related to networking.

Excerpt: “Flow Virtual Networking provides VPCs, overlapping IPs, and self-service networking capabilities for secure multi-tenancy in Nutanix AHV clusters.”

Answer: D

Nutanix Metro Availability provides the best Recovery Time Objective (RTO) because it enables synchronous replication between two sites. In the event of a failure at one site, VMs can be instantly restarted on the other site with minimal disruption. This setup ensures zero data loss and near-instantaneous recovery.

A. Async:Provides high RPO (Recovery Point Objective) but has a longer RTO compared to synchronous replication methods.

B. Availability Zone:This term refers to a general site setup, not specific to recovery objectives.

C. Metro Availability:Correct, as it uses synchronous replication for near-zero RTO.

D. NearSync:Provides better RPO than Async but does not match the RTO of Metro Availability.
