Nutanix Certified Professional (NCP) — Question 51

An administrator needs to boot a VM to a bootable CD. The administrator tries to configure the VM to boot to it, selects to add disk, and goes to the images available. The image for the bootable CD is unavailable.
What is the likely issue?

Answer options

• A. The CD-ROM interface is too slow
• B. The bootable CD image is corrupted during creation
• C. The VM needs to have a standard disk attached before it can boot to a CD
• D. The administrator selected a disk instead of an ISO when creating the image

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because if the administrator mistakenly chose a disk instead of an ISO file when setting up the bootable image, the VM will not recognize it as a bootable CD. Options A, B, and C are not relevant to the issue of the image being unavailable, as they do not address the selection error regarding the image type.
