Question

An administrator would like to plan for new project-related growth. New project workload requirements have been included for a cluster named ClusterXYZ:

2 Medium Sized SQL Servers
10 VMs with 16Gb RAM, 4 vCPU, 100GB Storage

Which two additional information items should be added to the capacity planning scenario to provide a proper capacity runway expectation? (Choose two.)

Options

AStorage compression ratio(s) for new workload
BDate(s) workload(s) will be added
CExisting cluster hardware specifications
DChange in Demand percentage

Explanation

For an accurate capacity planning scenario in Nutanix Prism Central's Intelligent Operations, two critical pieces of information are needed beyond the raw workload specs: (A) Storage Compression Ratio - the new SQL Server and VM workloads may benefit from data compression, which affects how much physical storage they will actually consume. Without this ratio, storage runway projections will be inaccurate. (B) Dates the workloads will be added - capacity runway is a time-based projection. Without knowing when workloads will be deployed, the system cannot calculate the runway accurately or show the correct inflection point on the timeline. Option C (existing hardware specs) is already known to Prism since ClusterXYZ is a managed cluster. Option D (Change in Demand percentage) applies to organic growth modeling, not a discrete project addition scenario.
