Nutanix Certified Services Core Infrastructure Professional - NCS-Core Exam Practice Test

A customer has a primary datacenter with 12 Nutanix blocks distributed across three racks. The customer wants to achieve the most resiliency possible. They also have a datacenter in a branch office that is 400 kilometers away from the primary datacenter.
Which two solutions should be used? (Choose two.)

A consultant is working on an expansion project for a customer that has an existing 7-node RF2 cluster. The customer has purchased four more nodes to add to the cluster. All of the hardware is identical between the existing hardware and newly purchased hardware.
Currently, the 7-node cluster has the following utilization:
*CPU: 48%
*Memory: 66%
*Storage: 91%
During the kick-off call, the customer mentioned they'd like to reserve storage capacity on the cluster if a node were to fail in the future.
What's the safest and best way to implement this on the cluster?

A consultant is working to setup the network before starting the Foundation process.
How should the consultant complete this task?

What must be set to enable node discovery when using Foundation VM?

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?

In which two ways can the IPMI address be set on a Nutanix hardware installation? (Choose two.)

A consultant successfully completes a Foundation using a flat switch. The consultant then works with the customer to move the cluster over to their production network. After the move, the CVMs and hypervisors can no longer communicate, which prevents the cluster from starting.
Which option should be used to resolve this issue?

An administrator has an existing Nutanix seven-node cluster running at RF2 that must be changed to have the following capabilities:
* RF3 set for the cluster
* Performance tier deduplication
What is the minimum memory needed on the CVMs to allow for these capabilities?

A customer already has a Prism Central (PC) instance deployed in their environment and expects the consultant to unregister the old cluster before registering the new cluster What steps should the consultant take to safely and successfully unregister the customer's former cluster from PC?

A consultant is unable to ping the CVM from the hypervisor using the external interface. The customer's network is configured with the 10.3.12.0/24 subnet without VLAN tagging. The CVM and hypervisor are using the same address space.
What is causing this issue?
