NCP-BC Exam Questions & Answers

After performing a failover of encrypted AHV VMs from an on-premises AZ to a recovery AZ, an administrator notices that newly written data is not encrypted.

Which post-failover cleanup task must be performed to correct this issue?

An administrator enables network segmentation for Disaster Recovery on a primary cluster to isolate replication traffic. The primary and recovery clusters are in a "brownfield" configuration, meaning the recovery cluster does not yet have network segmentation enabled.

How is the configuration of the recovery cluster handled in this scenario?

An administrator plans on performing a failover of a VM from a source cluster to a DR cluster. The administrator needs the VM's IP address preserved after failover.

In what scenario is the VM's IP address preserved?

An administrator is managing a Nutanix environment via Prism Central and has two VMs running on AHV:

"ERP-PROD": A mission-critical VM protected by a Synchronous replication schedule (0 RPO) to a secondary site.

"REPORTING-DEV": A non-critical VM protected by an Asynchronous replication schedule (hourly RPO) to the same secondary site.

Following a corrupted application update, the administrator decides to manually recover both VMs locally.

What will be the outcome of this manual recovery attempt?

An organization is finalizing its Disaster Recovery (DR) plan. The primary objective is to balance cost-efficiency with a target RTO of under 15 minutes. Data currently resides in Object Storage, but the team is debating between a Zero Compute approach and a Pilot Light approach.

Why would a Pilot Light infrastructure be selected over a Zero Compute model despite the higher "Moderate" cost?
