Question 3

Which log file should an administrator review to ensure consistent connectivity stability between primary and remote disaster recovery sites?

A. mantle.out

B. cerebro.INFO

C. genesis.out

D. prism_monitor.INFO

Question 4

During routine monitoring, an administrator notices that replication from the primary Nutanix cluster to the recovery cluster has stopped. New recovery points are not being created, and the DR dashboard shows replication errors. Investigation reveals:
* The primary and recovery clusters are both online and healthy.
* Network segmentation was recently enabled to isolate replication traffic from other workloads.
* No recent changes were made to firewall rules, protection policies or RPO settings.
Which action should the administrator take first to investigate the replication failure?

A. Increase the RPO interval setting in order to reduce the replication load.

B. Perform a test failover at the recovery site.

C. Verify required ports are open and reachable between clusters.

D. Delete and recreate the protection policy to reset replication.

Question 5

Refer to Exhibit:

An administrator is configuring Metro Availability in their environment, as shown in the diagram. What issue in the configuration will prevent Metro from working correctly?

A. The latency from the Witness VM to both Site 1 and 2 is too high.

B. Each site should have a Witness VM.

C. The Witness VM is located in a third site.

D. The latency between Site 1 and Site 2 is too high.

Question 6

An administrator is configuring Disaster Recovery between an on-prem availability zone (AZ) and an NC2 cluster hosted in a public cloud. The business requires cross-cluster live migration between on-prem and NC2 without IP changes. Which configuration must be satisfied to meet this requirement?

A. Layer 2 stretching between on-premises and the cloud

B. Linear retention configured on the protection policy

C. Synchronous replication configured

D. Matching subnet names between on-premises and the cloud

Question 7

An administrator performed an unplanned failover from AZ1 (primary) to AZ2 (recovery). Later, AZ1 is restored and the administrator wants to fail back the entities to AZ1. Which two statements are correct?
(Choose two.)

A. After unplanned failover, replication begins in the reverse direction, and failback success depends on recovery points being replicated back from AZ2 to AZ1 after failover.

B. After unplanned failover, failback success depends on recovery points being created locally on AZ1 before outage.

C. Failback uses the same recovery plan, but the failover operations for failback must be performed at the primary AZ.

D. Unplanned failover to AZ1 can use recovery points that were created locally in the past at AZ1, even if no recovery points replicate back from AZ2.

Question 8

A VM is configured with a 5-minute Nearsync RPO. After several hours, replication transitions back to hourly RPO. Alerts indicate the minute schedule cannot be maintained. What is the most likely root cause?

A. Bandwidth is insufficient.

B. Reverse synchronization is disabled.

C. Only one recovery plan exists.

D. RTT is greater than 5 ms.
