What reference materials should be provided to the customer during the Knowledge Transfer?
A consultant is preparing to foundation over a customer network that has the following criteria:
* VLAN segmented network
* VLAN tags on the nodes must be imaged prior to starting the foundation process.
For each node, the consultant has done the following:
* Connected to the Network Crash Cart of the Node
* Logged in using “root” credentials
What should the consultant do next?
Where in the Support Portal is the Best Practices guide for vSphere Networking located?
In a 20-node ESXi deployment, the customer needs additional resiliency to survive the loss of two nodes concurrently.
Which configuration should the consultant use to ensure that the appropriate resources are available?
During the Foundation imaging process, nodes are successfully imaged, but the cluster creation fails.
Which log should the consultant review to determine the cause?
A customer wants to expand an existing cluster with three additional nodes. After running the Foundation process on the new nodes, the customer realizes that the wrong IPs where used and the nodes are configured on a different network. The customer decides to create a new cluster instead.
Which method should be used to recreate the cluster?
A consultant successfully installs the Foundation VM on a laptop and needs to ensure the VM can communicate externally.
Which two configuration changes should the consultant make next? (Choose two.)
Refer to the exhibit.
A system administrator is using Range-Autofill tool to assign IP addresses to setup a multi-block cluster based on the following configuration:
Which additional changes must be made during the Foundation process to configure the cluster correctly?
After uploading a hypervisor ISO during the Foundation process, a consultant sees a message that the MD5 sum for the hypervisor is not found in the Whitelist file.
Which step should the consultant take next to resolve this issue?
Refer to the exhibit.
A consultant is deploying a cluster using the customer-provided IP addressing information.
Which option in Foundation must be configured to ensure connectivity during the deployment?
A consultant is planning a new cluster installation and needs to locate the Shared IPMI port for each of the specific nodes that the customer has bought.
Which Support Portal location contains the document that would identify the port?
A consultant creates a four-node AHV cluster with two 1GbE (eth0, etc1) and two 10GbE (eth2, eth3) NICs per node. The 1GbE NICs will not be placed into service, but the customer wants the network to be preconfigured for their eventual use.
The consultant removes the 1GbE NIC from the default bond and creates a second bridge(br1), but is unable to add the 1GbE NIC using the below command:
manage_ovs –bridge_name br1 –interfaces 1g –bond_name br1-up update_uplinks
Which parameter is missing from this command?
After installation, network ports are properly configured with the default active-backup bonding.
One 10GbE port goes to switch 1. Another 10GbE port goes to switch 2. A consultant tests failover by manually pulling one of the cables and notices it is taking too much time to failover, which is causing excessive packet loss.
What should the consultant enable to resolve this issue?
A consultant is viewing an ESXi host via console without external network connectivity.
Which two IP addresses can be used to connect to the CVM (Choose two.)
A consultant needs to verify the make and model of the systems that will be imaged with Foundation. The consultant does not have the Bill of Materials (BOM) available to review.
When should the consultant verify the make and model to prepare for the cluster deployment?
A customer has a G6 AHV cluster with 4x10GbE NICs on each node and the following configuration:
* Networking is set to default
* Only two NICs are connected
The customer receives the following critical message:
The NIC is disconnected from the switch, or the switchport is failing.
What should the consultant verify to resolve the issue?
A consultant is deploying a two-node cluster at a remote branch office.
Which component must be available to complete cluster configuration?
After a recent installation using a flat switch, a consultant notices issues migrating the Nutanix nodes to the customer’s network. The customer states that they are using VLANs on the production switch but not on the dedicated switch for IPMI. The customer does not require a manual configuration of the host and CVM.
What network changes need to be made to correct the issues?
While trying to upgrade AOS in a cluster, a consultant receives a warning message that there are two powered-on VMs that need to be powered off for the upgrade to proceed.
What would cause this warning to be issued?
Refer to the exhibit.
A consultant is installing AOS 5.10 and ESXi 6.5 on three nodes. During the Foundation process, ESXi 6.5 is not available as one of the choices for hypervisor.
Which solution should the consultant use?
