Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) — Question 18

An organizations Nutanix Cluster is based on VMware vSphere. The cluster is configured to download software updates automatically. The administration needs to verify and eventually upgrade VMware hypervisor via Prism Ul. After logging in to Prism, the administrator receives the message shown:
No available versions for upgrade.
What is causing the current state?

Answer options

• A. VMware support has expired, so downloads are not available.
• B. vSphere binaries need to be manually uploaded.
• C. The environment is running the latest vSphere version, so no update is required.
• D. The cluster is unable to connect to release api.nutanix-ccm:8D.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because it indicates that the vSphere binaries are not available for automatic download and must be uploaded manually. Option A is incorrect as the issue is not related to support expiration, while option C is also incorrect since the message suggests there are no versions available for upgrade, which does not necessarily mean the latest version is in use. Option D is wrong since the message does not imply a connectivity issue with the release API.
