Question

A company has a business-critical VM. The VM Utilization of CPU and memory differs from time to time, but can never be allowed to run out of resources. The administrator also wants to make sure that the VM is not over provisioned when not needed. The administrator determines these requirements that have been validated and automated in a test environment should also apply for the production environment: - VCPU needs to be added when CPU Utilization been over 80% for 15 minutes. - Memory needs to be increased by 4 GB when utilization reaches 80%. - Return of over-allocated resources must not affect other business applications. What can the administrator do with the least amount of effort to make sure the VM is always performant and returns resources when not required?

Options

  • AClone and adjust the system-created playbooks
  • BImport the playbook and adjust the values
  • CCreate a blueprint based on requirements
  • DCreate a task based on requirements

Explanation

The easiest way to automate the VM utilization and resource allocation is to use a playbook that has been already tested and validated in a test environment. A playbook is a collection of actions that can be triggered by events or schedules to perform various tasks on the Nutanix platform. By importing the playbook from the test environment to the production environment, the administrator can save time and effort in creating a new playbook from scratch. The administrator only needs to adjust the values of the playbook parameters, such as the VM name, the CPU and memory thresholds, the VCPU and memory increments, and the notification settings, to match the production environment. The playbook can then be executed manually or automatically based on the desired frequency and conditions.
