Nutanix Certified Professional (NCP) — Question 85

An administrator needs to power down an AHV node in order to replace a failed DIMM?
Which step should the administrator take after placing the node into maintenance mode?

Answer options

• A. Execute the command cluster status.
• B. Power of the node.
• C. Shut Down the Nutanix CVM.
• D. Reboot the Nutanix CVM.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as shutting down the Nutanix CVM is necessary to safely prepare the system for hardware maintenance. Options A and B do not address the need to power down the CVM, and D is incorrect because rebooting the CVM is not appropriate when preparing for a hardware replacement.
