,Section A - Nutanix Cloud Clusters NC2 ON Azure
Architecture
Q1.
In a Nutanix NC2 on Azure deployment, a VM running on an AHV cluster exhibits high
latency on its virtual disks. The administrator notices that the storage container is
configured with the default redundancy factor of 2. The cluster has 4 nodes, each with 4×
1.6TB NVMe drives. Which configuration change would most directly improve this VM's
performance?
A. Increase the redundancy factor to 3 B. Enable inline compression on the storage
container
C. Change the VM's storage policy to use a D. Add a flash cache tier to the storage
higher performance tier container
Correct: B - Enable inline compression on the storage container
Rationale:Inline compression reduces the amount of data written to disk, decreasing I/O
latency and improving throughput, especially with NVMe. Increasing redundancy factor (A)
doubles write amplification and worsens performance. Flash cache tier (D) is redundant when
all drives are NVMe. Storage policies for AHV VMs are not dynamically changed per VM (C).
Q2.
An organization is migrating a legacy application to Azure using Nutanix NC2. The
application currently uses a single Linux VM with an 8GB swap partition on a local disk.
The target AHV cluster in Azure uses a storage container with deduplication enabled.
Which migration strategy minimizes risk while maintaining performance?
A. Use a cold migration with a full copy of B. Use a warm migration with continuous
the VM, then adjust the swap partition size replication, then cut over with minimal
after migration downtime
C. Convert the VM to a template and deploy D. Use Azure Migrate to perform a
a new instance from the template lift-and-shift migration without any
adjustments
Correct: B - Use a warm migration with continuous replication, then cut over with minimal
downtime
Rationale:Warm migration with continuous replication (e.g., via Nutanix Move or similar)
minimizes downtime and allows verification of the swap partition and storage performance
before cutover. Cold migration (A) is acceptable but incurs downtime and may not catch
performance issues. Template conversion (C) loses the current state. Azure Migrate (D) may
not handle Nutanix-specific configurations correctly.

Q3.
In a hybrid infrastructure using Nutanix NC2 and Azure, you need to configure DNS
resolution so that Azure resources can resolve on-premises hostnames and vice versa.
Which approach satisfies this requirement with minimal administrative overhead?
A. Manually update the hosts files on all B. Set up a conditional forwarder in Azure
Azure VMs and on-premises servers DNS Private Resolver to forward
on-premises queries to the on-premises
DNS servers, and vice versa
C. Create a single DNS zone in Azure DNS D. Use Azure DNS Private Resolver with a
and replicate it to on-premises using zone DNS forwarding ruleset that points to the
transfers on-premises DNS servers, and configure
on-premises DNS to forward to Azure DNS
Private Resolver
Correct: D - Use Azure DNS Private Resolver with a DNS forwarding ruleset that points to
the on-premises DNS servers, and configure on-premises DNS to forward to Azure DNS
Private Resolver
Rationale:Azure DNS Private Resolver supports outbound and inbound endpoints, enabling
bidirectional DNS resolution without hosting a full DNS server. Option B only forwards from
Azure to on-premises, not the reverse. Option C is complex and not designed for hybrid.
Option A is unmanageable at scale.
Q4.
A company is deploying Nutanix NC2 on Azure and must ensure that AHV cluster nodes
can communicate with Azure Storage, Azure Active Directory, and the Nutanix Prism
Central management plane. The network team wants to minimize the number of routes but
also enforce security. Which networking design best meets these requirements?
A. Place all AHV nodes in a single subnet B. Place AHV nodes in a dedicated subnet
with a user-defined route (UDR) sending all with a network security group (NSG) that
traffic to the Azure firewall, and allow all allows only required ports, and use Azure
necessary IP ranges through the firewall Private Link for the management plane
C. Use a hub-spoke topology with forced D. Create a separate subnet for each
tunneling to on-premises for all traffic, function (storage, AD, management) and
including Azure Storage and management use Azure Firewall to route between them
Correct: B - Place AHV nodes in a dedicated subnet with a network security group (NSG)
that allows only required ports, and use Azure Private Link for the management plane
Rationale:Option B provides a secure, scalable design: a dedicated subnet with NSG
restrictions and Private Link for management. Option A is too broad and insecure. Option C
forces unnecessary traffic to on-premises, increasing latency and complexity. Option D is
over-engineered and not optimal for a small number of nodes.
