Nutanix Certified Professional - Unified Storage v6.10 NCP-US Exam Questions
While preparing for migrating data from a legacy storage environment to a new Files scale-out file server, the administrator make the following notes:
Requirements:
Number of home directories: 4000
Number of Departmental shares: 1
Everyone is permitted to accessing it
All users use the same Departmental share
The administrator deploys Files using the following configuration:
Number of FSVMs: 3
VCPU & RAM/FSVM: 4VCPU,12GB
One Distributed share with SSR & ABE enabled for the Home Directories
One Standard share for the Departmental share
Does this configuration satisfy the project's requirements?
Correct Answer: B
According to the scenario, the administrator is preparing to migrate data from a legacy storage environment to a new Files scale-out file server in a way that meets the following requirements:
Number of home directories: 4000
Number of Departmental shares: 1
Everyone is permitted to access it
All users use the same Departmental share
The administrator deploys Files using the following configuration:
Number of FSVMs: 3
VCPU & RAM/FSVM: 4VCPU, 12GB
One Distributed share with SSR & ABE enabled for the Home Directories
One Standard share for the Departmental share
Based on this configuration, it appears that the project's requirements are satisfied. The configuration provides a Distributed share for the home directories, which is recommended when there is a large number of files or directories, and this will distribute the load across multiple FSVMs. Note that everyone is permitted to access it.
In addition, the configuration provides a Standard share for the Departmental share, and since all users use the same Departmental share, this will not create any performance issues. Therefore, the correct answer is B, 'Yes, the listed configuration elements satisfy the requirements'.
An administrator has deployed an SMB v3 Files cluster, but needs to make the cluster able to support Multi-protocol access,
Which protocol will be native?
Correct Answer: C
According to the Nutanix Files SMB Migration Guide 1 , Nutanix Files supports SMB protocol V2 and V3 1 . SMB is a native protocol for Nutanix Files that allows file sharing between Windows clients and servers 1 .
The Files administrator has received reports from users in the accounting department that they can see folders that they don't have permission to access. The accounting department manager has requested that employees should only be able to see folders that they have permission to access.
How would a Files administrator ensure that users in the accounting share can only see folders they have permission to access?
Correct Answer: B
According to Nutanix Support & Insights 1 , Access-based enumeration (ABE) is a Windows feature that filters the list of available files and folders on the file server to include only those the requesting user can access. ABE can be enabled on a per-share basis for SMB shares.
Therefore, if the Files administrator wants to ensure that users in the accounting share can only see folders they have permission to access, they can enable ABE on the accounting share.

A company is implementing Files and has these requirements:
Six departments
Each department needs to access its own shared namespace
18,000 users
Given the nature of the workload, the administrator has decided to scale up by adding the maximum amount of vCPU and RAM.
What should the administrator implement to satisfy the stated requirements?
Correct Answer: C
According to Nutanix Files :- Exports and Shares Basics 1 , “A distributed share is an SMB share or NFS export that can be hosted by multiple FSVMs. A distributed share can handle more concurrent sessions than a standard share.” Therefore, the administrator should create six distributed shares for each department to access its own shared namespace and handle 3,000 concurrent sessions.

What is the most likely cause of an Objects bucket that is shared with multiple users to approach its assigned capacity limit?
Correct Answer: A
According to Nutanix Objects User Guide 1 , an object store is a logical grouping of buckets that share a common namespace and configuration settings. A bucket is a container for objects that can be accessed by authorized applications and users using S3-compatible APIs.
Objects Storage provides a simple and scalable S3 compatible storage tier on top of your Nutanix AOS platform 2 . There is no limit on objects per bucket 3 , but there is a limit on the total capacity of an object store that can be configured during its creation or modified later 4 .
Therefore, if an object store is shared with multiple users, it is possible that other users have written to the buckets in the object store and consumed its assigned capacity limit.
