NCP-US Dumps with Practice Exam Questions Answers

 According to Nutanix documentation on unified storage (NCP-US) v6, to automatically delete backups older than one year, an administrator should modify the existing bucket lifecycle policy to set the expiration period to one year. Lifecycle policies enable administrators to automate the transition of objects to different storage classes and to expire them altogether. In this scenario, modifying the existing bucket lifecycle policy to shorten the expiration period to one year will ensure that backups older than one year are automatically deleted to free up space in the cluster.

Nutanix Volumes is a block storage service that provides persistent storage for containerized applications running on Nutanix Kubernetes Engine (NKE). The NKE clusters are deployed with a Nutanix CSI driver that natively integrates with Volumes to enable backup and disaster recovery capabilities. Files is a file storage service that supports SMB and NFS protocols. Objects is an object storage service that supports S3-compatible APIs. Storage Container is a logical grouping of physical disks in a cluster.

iscsiadm is a command-line tool that allows you to manage iSCSI connections and devices. The error message shown in the exhibit indicates that there is a problem with connecting to the iSCSI target at x.x.x.250.

Nutanix volume groups are collections of vDisks that can be exposed to virtual machines or physical hosts using iSCSI protocol. Nutanix volume groups have a whitelist feature that allows you to specify which clients can access them.

• B. The administrator has a mistake when inputting the data services IP. This could cause the iscsiadm command to fail to discover or login to the iSCSI target at x.x.x.250. The administrator should verify that they have entered the correct data services IP for the Nutanix volume group.
• D. The client’s IQN is no longer in the whitelist of the affected VG. This could cause the iSCSI target to reject or ignore the connection request from the client. The administrator should check that they have added or updated the client’s IQN in the whitelist of the Nutanix volume group.

The garbage collection process is performed by Curator, a service that runs on Nutanix clusters and is responsible for cleaning up unused data and reclaiming space12. Curator scans run periodically in the background and can be monitored from Prism2.

 This is because Objects can provide fast access to each item using S3-compatible API which can be easily searched using metadata tags or third-party tools3. Objects also natively supports disaster recovery using replication policies1. Objects can scale to petabytes of data using erasure coding which reduces storage overhead1. Users can be granted access after authentication using AD integration which simplifies identity management1. User data can be isolated but could be shared using buckets which are logical containers for objects that can have different policies applied1.
