NCA-5.15 · Question #4
An administrator wants to copy some virtual machine disk files to ADSF from an external VMware ESXi host. Which two actions should the administrator take to complete this task? (Choose two.)
The correct answer is A. Mount container as NFS on external host D. Configure whitelist on container. Nutanix containers can be exposed as NFS datastores. Mounting the container as NFS on the external ESXi host (A) allows the host to access the Nutanix distributed storage fabric as a network share and copy VMDK/disk files directly into it. However, the container's NFS whitelist…

Explanation
Nutanix containers can be exposed as NFS datastores. Mounting the container as NFS on the external ESXi host (A) allows the host to access the Nutanix distributed storage fabric as a network share and copy VMDK/disk files directly into it. However, the container's NFS whitelist must include the IP address of the external ESXi host (D); without whitelisting, the NFS mount will be denied. Volume Groups (B) and CHAP (C) are iSCSI-related features used for block-level access, which is not the correct protocol for transferring disk files between hosts in this scenario.
