An administrator needs tooptimize a VM??s storageby leveragingcompression features. The VM??svDisksare currently stored in adefault storage containerwithno optimizations enabled.
How should the administrator proceed?

Correct Answer:A
Moving vDisks to a storage container with compression enabled ensures better data efficiency without downtime.
✑ Option A (Migrate vDisks) is correct:
✑ Option B (Recreate the VM) is incorrect:
✑ Option C (Migrate the VM) is incorrect:
✑ Option D (Recreate vDisk) is incorrect:

An administrator is trying toconfigure Metro Availabilitybetween NutanixESXi-based clusters. However, theCompatible Remote Sitesscreen does not list all required storage containers.


Which two reasons could be a cause for this issue? (Choose two.)

Correct Answer:CD
Metro Availability in Nutanix requires that the primary and secondary storage containers be configured identicallyto ensuredata replication consistency.
✑ Option C (The destination storage container is not empty) is correct:
✑ Option D (Both storage containers must have the same name) is correct:
✑ Option A is incorrect: Metro Availability works regardless of hardware vendor differences.
✑ Option B is incorrect:Compression does not affect compatibilitybut may impact performance.

An administrator observes an alert in Prism for ahybrid SSD/HDD cluster: "Storage Pool SSD utilization consistently above 75%."
What is the potential impact of this condition?

Correct Answer:D
High SSD utilization in a hybrid cluster can lead to increased I/O latency as new writes may spill over to HDDs, reducing overall performance.
✑ Option D (Average I/O latency in the cluster may increase) is correct:
✑ Option A is incorrect:
✑ Option B is incorrect:
✑ Option C is incorrect:
