Deploy and Manage a Nutanix Cluster

Question

An administrator is managing a 4-node cluster with different hardware generations:

Two G5 Nodes 2 CPUs (12 cores), 1 SSD (1.92 TB), 2 HDDs (4 TB). Two G7 Nodes 2 CPUs (16 cores), 2 SSDs (1.92 TB), 4 HDDs (4 TB). The cluster will be decommissioned from production and used for Disaster Recovery (DR) purposes with an RPO of 1 hour. What is the best approach when replacing G5 nodes without impacting performance?

Options

  • ANew node must have at least 2 SSDs.
  • BNew node must be G7 or G8.
  • CNew node must have 2 CPUs with 12 cores.
  • DNew node must be hybrid.

Explanation

For optimal Disaster Recovery performance, new nodes must match or exceed the storage performance of existing nodes. Option A (New node must have at least 2 SSDs) is correct: Since the G7 nodes have two SSDs, replacing G5 nodes with at least 2 SSDs ensures consistent SSD cache and performance.
