Nutanix Certified Associate Practice Exam

How often can you run NCC checks?

1. Once every hour.

2. Once every 24 hours.

3. Once every month.

4. Only when you run NCC.

The correct answer is: Once every 24 hours.

Running NCC (Nutanix Cluster Check) checks every 24 hours is recommended as it ensures that your cluster is continuously monitored for any potential issues and remains healthy. This frequency allows for timely detection of problems and facilitates proactive maintenance, reducing the risk of major disruptions. By conducting these checks daily, administrators can immediately address any anomalies or performance issues that may affect the overall integrity and efficiency of the cluster. It strikes a balance between the need for regular monitoring and not overwhelming system resources with continuous checks. Frequent checks, such as every hour, could lead to unnecessary strain on the system and may provide diminishing returns in terms of usable information. Daily checks contribute to a well-maintained Nutanix environment, aligning with best practices for keeping cloud infrastructures robust and reliable.
