Question 17
What is the benefit of configuring user-defined Alert Policies in Prism Central?
Correct Answer: A
The correct answer isA. It customizes alert thresholds. User-defined Alert PoliciesinPrism Centralallow administrators to definecustom alert conditionsand thresholdstailored to specific workload behaviors and operational requirements. This helps fine-tune monitoring by settingalert criteria for metrics such as CPU usage, memory utilization, IOPS, latency, etc., beyond the default system-generated alerts. Key Capabilities Include: * Define conditions usingpredefined metrics. * Set thresholds andseverity levels. * Associate alerts withspecific entitieslike VMs, hosts, or clusters. * Integrate withemail, SNMP, or third-party tools.

Question 19
Which storage protocol is used by Nutanix Distributed Storage Fabric (DSF) to provide access to an ESXi hypervisor?
Correct Answer: B
Nutanix Distributed Storage Fabric (DSF) provides storage access to an ESXi hypervisor using theNFS (Network File System)protocol. DSF abstracts the underlying storage hardware and exposes storage as an NFS datastore to ESXi hosts. This integration enables high performance, data protection, and scalability while simplifying storage management. Other options: * LVM: Not used in Nutanix storage. * iSCSI: Used for specific use cases, not the default protocol for ESXi. * SMB: Not supported for ESXi environments. : Nutanix VMware Integration Documentation.
