At ValidExamDumps, we consistently monitor updates to the Nutanix NCM-MCI-6.5 exam questions by Nutanix. Whenever our team identifies changes in the exam questions,exam objectives, exam focus areas or in exam requirements, We immediately update our exam questions for both PDF and online practice exams. This commitment ensures our customers always have access to the most current and accurate questions. By preparing with these actual questions, our customers can successfully pass the Nutanix Certified Master - Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) v6.5 exam on their first attempt without needing additional materials or study guides.
Other certification materials providers often include outdated or removed questions by Nutanix in their Nutanix NCM-MCI-6.5 exam. These outdated questions lead to customers failing their Nutanix Certified Master - Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) v6.5 exam. In contrast, we ensure our questions bank includes only precise and up-to-date questions, guaranteeing their presence in your actual exam. Our main priority is your success in the Nutanix NCM-MCI-6.5 exam, not profiting from selling obsolete exam questions in PDF or Online Practice Test.
Task 8
Depending on the order you perform the exam items, the access information and credentials could change. Please refer to the other item performed on Cluster B if you have problems accessing the cluster.
The infosec team has requested that audit logs for API Requests and replication capabilities be enabled for all clusters for the top 4 severity levels and pushed to their syslog system using highest reliability possible. They have requested no other logs to be included.
Syslog configuration:
Syslog Name: Corp_syslog
Syslop IP: 34.69.43.123
Port: 514
Ensure the cluster is configured to meet these requirements.
To configure the cluster to meet the requirements of the infosec team, you need to do the following steps:
Log in to Prism Central and go to Network > Syslog Servers > Configure Syslog Server. Enter Corp_syslog as the Server Name, 34.69.43.123 as the IP Address, and 514 as the Port. Select TCP as the Transport Protocol and enable RELP (Reliable Logging Protocol). This will create a syslog server with the highest reliability possible.
Click Edit against Data Sources and select Cluster B as the cluster. Select API Requests and Replication as the data sources and set the log level to CRITICAL for both of them. This will enable audit logs for API requests and replication capabilities for the top 4 severity levels (EMERGENCY, ALERT, CRITICAL, and ERROR) and push them to the syslog server. Click Save.
Repeat step 2 for any other clusters that you want to configure with the same requirements.
To configure the Nutanix clusters to enable audit logs for API Requests and replication capabilities, and push them to the syslog system with the highest reliability possible, you can follow these steps:
Log in to the Nutanix Prism web console using your administrator credentials.
Navigate to the 'Settings' section or the configuration settings interface within Prism.
Locate the 'Syslog Configuration' or 'Logging' option and click on it.
Configure the syslog settings as follows:
Syslog Name: Enter 'Corp_syslog' as the name for the syslog configuration.
Syslog IP: Set the IP address to '34.69.43.123', which is the IP address of the syslog system.
Port: Set the port to '514', which is the default port for syslog.
Enable the option for highest reliability or persistent logging, if available. This ensures that logs are sent reliably and not lost in case of network interruptions.
Save the syslog configuration.
Enable Audit Logs for API Requests:
In the Nutanix Prism web console, navigate to the 'Cluster' section or the cluster management interface.
Select the desired cluster where you want to enable audit logs.
Locate the 'Audit Configuration' or 'Security Configuration' option and click on it.
Look for the settings related to audit logs and API requests. Enable the audit logging feature and select the top 4 severity levels to be logged.
Save the audit configuration.
Enable Audit Logs for Replication Capabilities:
In the Nutanix Prism web console, navigate to the 'Cluster' section or the cluster management interface.
Select the desired cluster where you want to enable audit logs.
Locate the 'Audit Configuration' or 'Security Configuration' option and click on it.
Look for the settings related to audit logs and replication capabilities. Enable the audit logging feature and select the top 4 severity levels to be logged.
Save the audit configuration.
After completing these steps, the Nutanix clusters will be configured to enable audit logs for API Requests and replication capabilities. The logs will be sent to the specified syslog system with the highest reliability possible.

Domain: cyberdyne.net
IP Pool: 192.168.9.100-200
DHCP Server IP: 192.168.0.2
Configure the cluster to meet the requirements for the new workload if new objects are required, start the name with 667.
To configure the cluster to meet the requirements for the new workload, you need to do the following steps:
Create a new VLAN with ID 667 on the cluster. You can do this by logging in to Prism Element and going to Network Configuration > VLANs > Create VLAN. Enter 667 as the VLAN ID and a name for the VLAN, such as 667_VLAN.
Create a new network segment with the network details provided. You can do this by logging in to Prism Central and going to Network > Network Segments > Create Network Segment. Enter a name for the network segment, such as 667_Network_Segment, and select 667_VLAN as the VLAN. Enter 192.168.0.0 as the Network Address and 255.255.255.0 as the Subnet Mask. Enter 192.168.0.1 as the Default Gateway and 34.82.231.220 as the DNS Server. Enter cyberdyne.net as the Domain Name.
Create a new IP pool with the IP range provided. You can do this by logging in to Prism Central and going to Network > IP Pools > Create IP Pool. Enter a name for the IP pool, such as 667_IP_Pool, and select 667_Network_Segment as the Network Segment. Enter 192.168.9.100 as the Starting IP Address and 192.168.9.200 as the Ending IP Address.

Enter a name for the DHCP server, such as 667_DHCP_Server, and select 667_Network_Segment as the Network Segment. Enter 192.168.0.2 as the IP Address and select 667_IP_Pool as the IP Pool.
Task 10
An administrator is working to create a VM using Nutanix V3 API calls with the following specifications.
* VM specifications:
* vCPUs: 2
* Memory: BGb
* Disk Size: 50Gb
* Cluster: Cluster A
* Network: default- net
The API call is falling, indicating an issue with the payload:
The body is saved in Desktop/ Files/API_Create_VM,text
Correct any issues in the text file that would prevent from creating the VM. Also ensure the VM will be created as speeded and make sure it is saved for re-use using that filename.
Deploy the vm through the API
Note: Do not power on the VM.

Task 15
An administrator found a CentOS VM, Cent_Down, on the cluster with a corrupted network stack. To correct the issue, the VM will need to be restored from a previous snapshot to become reachable on the network again.
VM credentials:
Username: root
Password: nutanix/4u
Restore the VM and ensure it is reachable on the network by pinging 172.31.0.1 from the VM.
Power off the VM before proceeding.
To restore the VM and ensure it is reachable on the network, you can follow these steps:
Log in to the Web Console of the cluster where the VM is running.
Click on Virtual Machines on the left menu and find Cent_Down from the list. Click on the power icon to power off the VM.
Click on the snapshot icon next to the power icon to open the Snapshot Management window.
Select a snapshot from the list that was taken before the network stack was corrupted. You can use the date and time information to choose a suitable snapshot.
Click on Restore VM and confirm the action in the dialog box. Wait for the restore process to complete.
Click on the power icon again to power on the VM.
Log in to the VM using SSH or console with the username and password provided.
Run the commandping 172.31.0.1to verify that the VM is reachable on the network. You should see a reply from the destination IP address.
Go to VMS from the prism central gui
Select the VMand go to More -> Guest Shutdown
Go to Snapshots tab and revert to latest snapshot available
power on vm and verify if ping is working
