Nutanix Certified Associate Practice Exam

If a cluster is noted to have instability risks, what should an administrator do in response to a field advisory?

1. Open Prism Element and select Upgrade Software

2. Use VMware Update Manager to update the cluster

3. File a ticket to Nutanix Support with the Field Advisory ID

4. Select Life Cycle Management in Prism Central for updates

The correct answer is: File a ticket to Nutanix Support with the Field Advisory ID

Responding to a cluster with instability risks as identified in a field advisory often requires formal communication with the support team to ensure that the issue is managed appropriately and efficiently. Filing a ticket to Nutanix Support with the Field Advisory ID ensures that the support team has all the necessary context regarding the specific advisory that has been issued. This documentation allows the support team to provide tailored guidance and solutions based on the risks highlighted in the advisory, ensuring customers receive the most accurate and relevant assistance. By filing a ticket, the administrator engages the support resources that can directly address the concerns raised in the advisory, enabling a proper assessment and remediation strategy tailored to the cluster’s situation. This approach not only helps in mitigating the instability risks but also contributes to any potential patches or fixes identified by the manufacturer, thus enhancing cluster reliability and performance moving forward. Other options, while possibly helpful in managing updates and functionality, do not directly engage support resources with the critical information provided in the advisory, which is essential for dealing with the specific risks mentioned.
