Nutanix Certified Professional (NCP) — Question 125

An administrator has a 4-node cluster that cannot experience any downtime. The cluster has
10 TB of total space. Approximately 5 TB of space is currently utilized.
How many nodes can the administrator take offline without impacting workloads on the cluster?

Answer options

• A. 3
• B. 2
• C. 0
• D. 1

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as the cluster can afford to lose only one node while still maintaining enough resources to support the existing workloads. Taking down more than one node would exceed the available capacity needed to handle the utilized 5 TB of space, jeopardizing the cluster's operation.
