Question

Options

• ANutanix Guest Tools (NGT) is not installed on the source VMs.
• BWindows updates need to be applied to all affected VMs.
• CThe storage container name on the DR cluster does not match the production cluster.
• DThe storage container RF factor does not match in both clusters.

• A
  8% (3)
• B
  3% (1)
• C
  72% (28)
• D
  18% (7)

Explanation

In Nutanix replication, when a VM is recovered or replicated to a DR site, the storage container on the DR cluster must have the same name as the source container. Nutanix replication maps containers by name; if the names do not match, the recovery points cannot be written to the DR cluster and will not appear there - even though they are visible locally on the production side. NGT (option A) is required only for application-consistent snapshots; since the policy uses crash consistency, NGT absence would not block replication entirely. Windows updates (option B) are unrelated. RF factor mismatches (option D) do not prevent recovery point replication.
