Nutanix Exam NCP-MCI Topic 4 Question 29 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-MCI exam

Question #: 29
Topic #: 4

An administrator initially performed a cluster Foundation using a flat switch without any VLAN configuration. After the Foundation, the administrator moved the dual 25Gb data ports and single 1Gb IPMI port to the actual switches with the below network configurations:

. All VLANs are tagged

. VLAN 1000 for CVM\Hypervisor traffic

* VLAN 1001 for User VM traffic

. VLAN 100 for IPMI traffic

After moving the IPMI network links, the administrator can no longer ping the IPMI IPs.

Which two changes does the administrator need to make? (Choose two.)

ASSH to AHV and set the VLAN ID using IPMI Tool.

BSSH to CVM and restart network services on all host.

CSSH to AHV and change the IP address using IPMI tool.

DSSH to CVM and restart Genesis on all CVMs.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, C

The issue described pertains to the inability to ping the IPMI IPs after moving the IPMI network links to the actual switches with specific VLAN configurations. The two changes that the administrator needs to make are:

A . SSH to AHV and set the VLAN ID using IPMI Tool: Since all VLANs are tagged in the new network configuration, the IPMI network interface needs to be aware of the VLAN it's supposed to communicate on. This can be achieved by setting the VLAN ID using the IPMI Tool on the AHV.

C . SSH to AHV and change the IP address using IPMI tool: If the IPMI IP addresses were initially set in a different subnet that is not routable in the new network configuration, the administrator would need to change the IPMI IP addresses to match the new network configuration. This can be done by SSHing to the AHV and using the IPMI Tool to change the IP address.

I think the administrator should SSH to AHV and set the VLAN ID using IPMI Tool.
