A customer is evaluating Nutanix to replace their existing 200TB filer. The filer is used to store archived images. To achieve maximum storage density. RF2 and Erasure Coding are proposed. What is the minimum number of nodes required to support the maximum Erasure Coding stripe size of 4/1 (data/parity)?


A. 4 Nodes


B. 5 Nodes


C. 6 Nodes


D. 7 Nodes





B.
  5 Nodes


Explanation:

Problem Analysis:

The customer needs to replace an existing 200TB filer with a Nutanix solution.

The filer is used for storing archived images, requiring maximum storage density.

The proposal includes using RF2 and Erasure Coding with a stripe size of 4/1 (data/parity).

Erasure Coding Requirements:

Erasure Coding (EC-X) in Nutanix improves storage efficiency by distributing data and parity across multiple nodes.

A 4/1 stripe size means 4 data blocks and 1 parity block.

To implement a 4/1 Erasure Coding stripe, a minimum of 5 nodes is required to ensure the distribution of data and parity blocks.

Explanation:

RF2 (Replication Factor 2): Requires at least two copies of the data to be stored on different nodes.

Erasure Coding with a 4/1 Stripe: Requires 5 nodes to ensure there are enough blocks to store the 4 data and 1 parity blocks.

Outcome:

The minimum number of nodes required to support the maximum Erasure Coding stripe size of 4/1 is 5 nodes.

References:

For more detailed information, refer to the Nutanix documentation on Erasure Coding and storage policies.

A prospect wants to target Nutanix as infrastructure for running VMs built as part of their new Continuous Integration and Delivery (CICD) pipeline.

A. The configuration manager that the customer will use with the application builds


B. The frequency and lifespan of each application build


C. The build manager that the company will use for the builds


D. The configuration/specs of the VMs within each application build





A.
  The configuration manager that the customer will use with the application builds

D.
