Nutanix Certified Professional – Multicloud Infrastructure v6.10 (NCP-MCI) — Question 25

A company is evaluating Nutanix DR to protect some business critical applications and tasked an administrator to find an optimal configuration providing highest resiliency and lowest RPO to the production environment.
The company's production environment is deployed on two physical sites with each hosting one AHV-based cluster.
What configuration will meet the company's requirements?

Answer options

• A. Deploy Prism Central instance on one of the sites, configure Prism Central Disaster Recovery, and setup Metro AHV.
• B. Deploy Prism Central instance on each site. Configure Metro Availability using Protection Domains.
• C. Deploy one Prism Central instance on each site and configure synchronous replication using Protection Policy.
• D. Deploy Prism Central instance on one of the sites. Configure NearSync replication using Protection Domains.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because deploying a Prism Central instance on one site and configuring Prism Central Disaster Recovery with Metro AHV ensures high resiliency and very low RPO by allowing for active-active configurations. Options B and C do not achieve the same level of resiliency with the same configuration type, and option D, while it provides some replication, does not meet the highest resiliency requirement.
