NCP-CI-AWS - Nutanix Certified Professional - Cloud Integration - AWS (NCP-CI-AWS6.7) Exam

The steps, in order, to recover a cluster protected using the Cluster Protect feature when the Prism Central instance was not on the failed cluster are as follows:

Step 1: Set the cluster to the Failed state using the NC2 console to start the recovery workflow.

Step 2: Redeploy the cluster using the NC2 console.

Step 3: Redeploy the Multicloud Snapshot Technology.

Step 4: Recover UVM data by running CLI commands.

Set the cluster to the Failed state using the NC2 console to start the recovery workflow: This step involves marking the cluster as failed to initiate the recovery process.

Redeploy the cluster using the NC2 console: Once the cluster is marked as failed, the next step is to redeploy it using the tools available in the NC2 console.

Redeploy the Multicloud Snapshot Technology: After the cluster is redeployed, the Multicloud Snapshot Technology needs to be redeployed to ensure data consistency and availability.

Recover UVM data by running CLI commands: The final step is to recover the User VM (UVM) data by executing the necessary CLI commands to restore the data from the snapshots or backups.

Nutanix Cloud Clusters on AWS Administration

To control network traffic at the individual User VM (UVM) subnet level, creating a custom security group is the appropriate action. This approach allows for fine-grained control over inbound and outbound traffic rules that can be applied to specific subnets or individual instances within those subnets.

Custom Security Group:

Custom security groups enable administrators to define specific traffic rules tailored to the needs of individual subnets or VMs. This includes specifying allowed IP ranges, ports, and protocols.

By applying these custom security groups to the UVMs, the organization can control access and enhance security according to their policies and requirements.

Steps to Create a Custom Security Group:

Navigate to the AWS Management Console and go to the VPC service.

Select "Security Groups" under the "Security" section.

Click on "Create Security Group" and define the name, description, and VPC.

Add inbound and outbound rules according to the desired traffic control policies.

Attach the custom security group to the UVMs or subnets in question.

Nutanix Best Practices for Security Groups

In Nutanix Cloud Integration with AWS, specifically version 6.7, the role that allows full access to clusters created within an organization is the Organization Administrator.

The Organization Administrator role has the highest level of privileges within an organization, enabling the user to manage all aspects of the clusters, including creation, modification, and deletion.

This role is designed to oversee and control the entire organization's resources, ensuring comprehensive management capabilities over all clusters and associated resources.
