NetApp Certified Data Administrator (NCDA) – ONTAP — Question 7
A company is using a FlexPod reference architecture. The administrator wants to manage the compute, storage, and virtualization environment in a single UI.
Which product should be used to meet these requirements?
Answer options
- A. Cisco Intersight
- B. VMware vCenter
- C. NetApp Active IQ Unified Manager
- D. Cisco UCS Director
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Cisco UCS Director is designed to manage the compute, storage, and virtualization components of a FlexPod environment from a single user interface, making it the correct choice. While Cisco Intersight and VMware vCenter focus on specific areas of management, they do not provide the comprehensive integration required for all three environments. NetApp Active IQ Unified Manager is primarily focused on storage management and lacks the broader compute and virtualization management capabilities.
