Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) — Question 27
An administrator deploys Exchange on a Nutanix cluster. The administrator creates two containers with RF2 configuration:
✑ One container for Exchange
✑ One container for the other VMs
The Exchange VM is experiencing I/O performance issues.
Which changes to Storage Optimization should be used on the Exchange container to enhance I/O performance?
Answer options
- A. No data reduction
- B. Post process Deduplication only
- C. Inline compression and EC-X
- D. Inline compression and Deduplication
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct choice is C, as Inline compression and EC-X are designed to optimize storage efficiency without sacrificing performance, which is crucial for I/O-intensive applications like Exchange. Options A and B do not provide any performance enhancements, while D, although it offers inline compression, lacks the benefits of EC-X, which further optimizes I/O operations.
