Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) — Question 6

An administrator needs to migrate workloads from a Nutanix cluster running VMware ESXi to Nutanix AHV. The migration process needs to be completed in multiple VM groups and support roll back in case any problems are found during user acceptance testing.
Which action should the administrator perform?

Answer options

• A. Use Cross Hypervisor DR to replicate VMs from ESXi to AHV
• B. Use VMware Converter
• C. Use Nutanix one-click cluster conversion from ESXi to AHV
• D. Use storage live migration

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because Cross Hypervisor DR provides a method to replicate VMs between different hypervisors, which is essential for migrating from ESXi to AHV while allowing for rollback. Option B, VMware Converter, is not suitable for this migration as it does not support cross-hypervisor transfers in the same way. Option C, Nutanix one-click cluster conversion, would not allow for the same rollback capabilities during user acceptance testing as required. Option D, storage live migration, is not applicable when changing hypervisors.
