Nutanix Certified Associate (NCA) — Question 29

An administrator has defined a security policy that needs to be applied to dozens of VMs.
What is the most efficient way the administrator can perform this?

Answer options

• A. Within the policy, select all the VMs it should be applied to.
• B. Apply a category to the VMs, and associate the category with the policy.
• C. Apply the same label to all the VMs, then bind the policy to the label.
• D. Use a script to apply the policy to the defined VMs.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because using a category allows for a more organized and scalable application of the policy across many VMs. Option A is inefficient as it requires manual selection of each VM, while C, although practical, does not leverage the advantages of categorization. Option D introduces unnecessary complexity when a simpler solution exists.
