NEW QUESTION 123
An administrator is implementing a VDI solution. The workload will be a series of persistent desktops in a dedicated storage container within a four-node cluster. Storage optimizations should be set on the dedicated storage container to give optimal performance including during a node failure event.

NEW QUESTION 124
Refer to Exhibit:

A customer is preparing to expand a cluster with a consultant. The production cluster is comprised of one NX-3460-G7 and two NX-8235 G8 blocks. The running AOS version is 5.20.4.6 and Hypervisor version is ESXi 6.7 U3b. vCenter is also running a 6.7 version.
One NX-3235-G9 block will be added to that cluster (ESXI-NUTA-09 and ESXI-NUTA-10).
The consultant has verified Nutanix documentation and customer’s As-Built guide:
*NX-3060-G7 and NX-8035-G8 are hybrid HCI nodes
*ESXi 6.7 U3b is unsupported for the new G9 hardware model
*AOS 5.20.X and ESXi 6 X are end of support
*NX-3060-G7 and NX-8035-G8 hypervisors can be upgraded to the latest ESXi supported version What actions should be taken before beginning the cluster expansion?

NEW QUESTION 125
