Nutanix Certified Associate v6.10 (NCA) — Question 4

An administrator is configuring Erasure Coding on a Redundancy Factor 2 cluster.
How many nodes, at a minimum, are necessary?

Answer options

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 5
• D. 6

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, which indicates that a minimum of 4 nodes is needed to implement Erasure Coding with a Redundancy Factor of 2. This ensures that data can be reconstructed even if one node fails, providing the necessary redundancy. Options A, C, and D do not meet the minimum requirement for the specified redundancy level.
