Question
An administrator supports a user group that spans across 10 Nutanix clusters for a medium-sized medical communications firm. The 10 Nutanix clusters are managed by a single Prism Central instance. This group's virtual desktops are all cloned from a common gold image and all applications are published from a Citrix Virtual Apps farm. The administrator needs to keep the gold image in sync across all of the clusters. What is the best way to achieve this?
Options
- Ause the native replication facility within the Machine Catalog
- BSetup a Protection Domain with the gold image as 3 protected entity.
- CUpload the gold image to Prism Central Image Service.
- Duse Move to maintain all gold images across the clusters.

Explanation
The Prism Central Image Service is specifically designed to solve this problem. When an image is uploaded to Prism Central's Image Service, it becomes centrally managed and can be automatically distributed to and synchronized across all registered clusters. This eliminates the need to manually upload or replicate the image to each cluster individually. Option A is incorrect because Machine Catalogs in Citrix do not have a built-in gold image replication facility across separate Nutanix clusters. Option B (Protection Domain) is a disaster recovery mechanism for VMs, not for maintaining a live, up-to-date image across clusters. Option D (Nutanix Move) is a VM migration tool, not an image synchronization tool.
