Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) — Question 15

A customer wants to run SAP HANA on a Nutanix cluster with the following characteristics:
✑ AHV nodes
✑ SAP HANA version 2
✑ Production database files
Which configuration should be recommended to the customer?

Answer options

• A. Start with a cluster containing three or more nodes
• B. Enable only compression for the container that contains the Production database
• C. Do not enable compression, deduplication, or erasure coding on the storage container
• D. Plate the SAP HANA Database on the same socket as CVM

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because SAP HANA requires optimal performance and stability, which can be compromised by enabling compression, deduplication, or erasure coding on the storage container. Option A is incorrect as it does not specifically address the storage configuration needs for SAP HANA. Option B is wrong because compression can hinder performance for a production environment. Option D does not relate to the necessary storage configurations for SAP HANA.
