Nutanix Certified Associate Practice Exam

Which option allows administrators to audit changes across the Nutanix environment?

1. Health Reports

2. Audit Logs

3. Service Accounts

4. Performance Metrics

The correct answer is: Audit Logs

Audit logs allow administrators to track and audit changes made across the Nutanix environment, providing a detailed record of actions taken by users or systems. These logs are crucial for compliance and security as they enable administrators to understand who made specific changes, when those changes occurred, and what the changes were. This visibility is essential for maintaining the integrity of the environment and for troubleshooting any issues that may arise. In contrast, health reports primarily focus on the system's performance and health status, not specifically on tracking changes. Service accounts are used for authentication and authorization purposes rather than monitoring changes. Performance metrics provide insights into system performance but do not give information about administrative actions or modifications to the environment. Audit logs specifically fulfill the need for tracking changes, making them the right choice for auditing purposes within a Nutanix deployment.
