Nutanix NCP-MCI-7.5 Exam Dumps - Actual Questions Answers

Nutanix security guidance is explicit on this point. After adding an SSH public key and verifying connectivity, Nutanix recommends disabling password authentication for all CVMs and AHV hosts to reduce interactive access risk. The Security Guide notes that after the SSH key inclusion and connectivity validation are complete, password authentication should be disabled as the next hardening step. That makes B the correct answer.

This is a straightforward hardening sequence question. The administrator has already completed the prerequisite—public-key access is working—so the next step is to remove the weaker interactive method. Core dumps, login banners, and UI session settings do not address SSH authentication exposure. Nutanix’s security model favors moving from password-based remote shell access to key-based access only. Therefore B is the authentic and recommended next step.

If the organization has changed naming conventions and needs VM disks placed into containers that comply with the new standard, the direct operational method is to move the VM’s virtual disks to the correct container. In Nutanix, that action is done through live vDisk migration. This preserves workload availability while relocating storage placement to the new destination container that matches policy. The question is really about correcting existing placement, not just defining intent for future objects. ( Nutanix Portal )

The other options do not solve the immediate placement problem. A storage policy can influence behavior, but it does not retroactively relocate already placed vDisks unless that policy is tied to an action that changes their storage location. Image placement policy affects images, not existing VM disk residency. Renaming storage containers is not the right operational answer here because naming policy changes usually result in a need to place workloads into the correct containers, and administrators do not rely on renaming alone to change where current VM data lives. Nutanix’s management model supports live movement of VM storage, so A is the practical and technically correct answer. ( Nutanix Portal )

Nutanix volume groups support attaching storage to one or more VMs. Nutanix documentation for creating volume groups states that if you want to attach a volume group to multiple VMs, you select the Shared option. That is the key requirement when building an application-level high-availability configuration where two database VMs need shared access to the same block storage construct. ( Nutanix Portal )

The other options either describe different capabilities or are not the documented mechanism for this requirement. External client access is used when exposing the volume group to external iSCSI initiators, which is not what the question asks. Storing vDisks on different containers does not create shared access semantics. “Multi-writer mode via storage policy” is not the standard Nutanix answer here; Nutanix’s documented configuration language for this use case is the Shared setting on the volume group itself. So if the requirement is two VMs, same application data path, and application-level HA, the correct Nutanix configuration is to create the VG in shared mode. ( Nutanix Portal )
