NEW QUESTION # 29
A company wants to start using Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) in AWS. The company has large spend commitments as part of an AWS Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) totaling $15 million.
What approach should the administrator take to ensure that Nutanix licensing costs to the EDP commitment?
- A. Purchase Nutaniz licenses through the AWS Marketplace.
- B. Leverage existing Nutanix licenses.
- C. Request a trial license directly from Nutanix
- D. Purchase Nutanix licenses directly from Nutanix and contact AWS support.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Given the company's large spend commitments as part of an AWS Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) totaling $15 million, purchasing Nutanix licenses through the AWS Marketplace ensures that the costs contribute to the EDP commitment.
This approach integrates the Nutanix license costs into the overall AWS spend, thereby maximizing the benefits of the EDP.
Purchasing directly from Nutanix or leveraging existing licenses might not count towards the AWS EDP commitment, and trial licenses are typically for evaluation purposes and do not contribute to the committed spend.

NEW QUESTION # 38
An administrator has deployed an NC2 cluster in AWS.
The following configuration decisions were made:
Created a new VPC from the NC2 console as part of the deployment
Selected the Public option for prism access policy
Host type selected was i13en,metal
The administrator now has a goal of provision public internet access to a user VM (UVM),web-1, on the Nutanix cluster. The admin can access Prism Element via the public DNS of the Auto-created load balancer.
The administrator tries to create another network load balancer for the web server access. After creating the load balancer and registering web-1's IP address as a target, the administrator finds that the health check for the VM target is failing and the DNS returns as NOT Found message in the browser.
Why is the issue happening?
- A. The administrator needs to provision an application load balancer instead of a network load balancer to allow Internet traffic to access the UVM subnet.
- B. The administrator has not modified the inbound rules under the UVM security group to a/low the network load balancer to access the UVM subnet.
- C. The administrator has not assigned a public IP to web-1.
- D. The load balancer is still in a Provisioning state.
Answer: C
Explanation:
For a VM to be accessible over the internet through a load balancer, the VM itself must have a public IP address.
In this case, the health check for the VM target is failing and the DNS returns a "NOT Found" message because web-1 does not have a public IP assigned.
Without a public IP, the load balancer cannot route traffic to web-1 from the internet.
Assigning a public IP to web-1 ensures that the VM can be accessed via the load balancer, resolving the connectivity issue.
Reference:
Refer to the AWS documentation on network load balancers and public IP assignments, and Nutanix documentation on VM network configurations.
