Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-MCA exam

Question #: 76
Topic #: 8

An administrator wants to create two database VMS using replicas and needs to access the same mount_path for hosting the backup files during the deployment on both VMs,

What should the administrator do on the Blueprint to achieve this requirement?

ASet mount_path = u01/app/backup as a runtime variable

BSet mount_path = u01/app/backup as a runtime replica

CSet mount_path = u01/app/backup as a runtime task

DSet mount_path = u01/app/backup as a runtime service

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Runtime variables are used to pass information between different components of a Blueprint, such as VMs, services, tasks, and replicas. They can be defined in the Blueprint YAML file or in the UI. By setting the mount_path as a runtime variable, the administrator can ensure that both database VMs use the same value for the mount_path during the deployment. This way, the backup files can be hosted on the same location for both VMs.Reference:

I think the administrator should set mount_path = u01/app/backup as a runtime variable.
