A consultant is running Foundation. The cluster creation fails during the process. The host logs confirm that the nodes have been successfully imaged. The consultant decides to create the cluster manually.
Which command should the consultant use?
To manually create a cluster after the nodes have been successfully imaged but the automated cluster creation fails, the correct command to use is:
cluster create -s IP_CVM_A, IP_CVM_B, IP_CVM_n
This command specifies the -s option to include the IP addresses of the Controller Virtual Machines (CVMs) on the nodes, initiating the manual cluster creation process.
What is the minimum number of nodes required for a Nutanix Cluster to support Replication Factor 3 (RF3) on a storage container?
For a Nutanix cluster to support Replication Factor 3 (RF3), a minimum of 5 nodes is required. RF3 means that three copies of the data are maintained across the cluster for fault tolerance and high availability. Having at least five nodes ensures that there are sufficient nodes to distribute these copies across different fault domains, minimizing the risk of data loss and providing improved resilience against node failures.

At which prompt should a consultant execute the command nanage_ovs ---bridge_nawe brO show_uplinks in a Nutanix cluster?
To execute the command manage_ovs --bridge_name br0 show_uplinks in a Nutanix cluster, the appropriate prompt is:
A . nutanix@CVM-$: This command is intended for execution within the Controller Virtual Machine (CVM) environment, and 'nutanix@CVM-$' is the standard user prompt in the CVM where such network commands are run.
An administrator is managing multiple Windows and Linux VMs connected to Nutanix Volumes. The Linux VMs are experiencing intermittent connectivity issues. The Windows VMs do not experience the same issue.
Which option should the administrator use to resolve this issue?
To ensure VM availability when a service outage has occurred, a customer has requested that automatic VM failovers must occur as part of the DR strategy for their environment.
Which failover operation is within an Unplanned Failover option?
For scenarios requiring VM availability during unplanned outages, AHV Metro with Witness Operation is designed to handle such situations. AHV Metro Availability enables synchronous replication between two sites with a witness that arbitrates site availability in case of a split-brain scenario. This setup is intended for automatic failover during service disruptions, ensuring continuous availability of VMs without manual intervention.
