Nutanix Certified Professional - Business Continuity v7.5 NCP-BC Exam Questions

An administrator configures disaster recovery between an on-premises AZ and a Nutanix Cloud AZ. The deployment follows the documented workflow, and no configuration errors are reported during setup.

After enabling DR and assigning protection policies to several VMs with volume groups, the administrator initiates failover and notices the VMs do not have their volume groups attached.

To troubleshoot, the administrator performs the following verification steps:

The clusters are successfully paired in Prism Central.

Protection policies and replication schedules are configured correctly.

Recovery plan validation completes successfully.

Required firewall ports between sites are confirmed open.

Management IP addresses are reachable in both directions.

Despite this, the administrator observes the volume groups are still not attached.

Which network-related prerequisite is most likely misconfigured?

An administrator is managing a Nutanix environment via Prism Central and has two VMs running on AHV:

"ERP-PROD": A mission-critical VM protected by a Synchronous replication schedule (0 RPO) to a secondary site.

"REPORTING-DEV": A non-critical VM protected by an Asynchronous replication schedule (hourly RPO) to the same secondary site.

Following a corrupted application update, the administrator decides to manually recover both VMs locally.

What will be the outcome of this manual recovery attempt?

Which native Nutanix tool is used to determine connectivity between two sites during disaster recovery testing?

Which log file should an administrator review to ensure consistent connectivity stability between primary and remote disaster recovery sites?

While attempting to execute a Commvault backup plan, an administrator received the following error for several VMs:

Virtual Machine not found

After confirming the VMs exist, the administrator digs deeper and finds the following related error message:

Event Code 91:4 Virtual machine [Nutanix-Web-Server] was not found. Please verify that the virtual machine still exists and that the host is in the connected state. If the virtual machine does not exist remove it from the subclient. If the virtual machine does exist reselect the virtual machine and re-add it to the subclient content.

Which action should the administrator take to enable successful backups?

A company's two clusters are part of the same availability zone. Prism Central, which holds the protection policy configuration and recovery plans, is located on Cluster A and protected by the Prism Central Backup and Restore mechanism.

What is the first step to take to execute a disaster recovery plan on the datacenter hosting Cluster A?

A Nutanix protection policy is configured with:

RPO: 1 hour

Retention period: 5 days

Retention type: Roll-up

After six days of continuous operation, approximately how many hourly recovery points will still be available for restores for the most recent 24-hour period?
