BRemediation actions are incorrectly defined, indicating the Playbook is not working as designed.
CPlaybook trigger condition doesn’t match alert rule criteria. Playbook is working as implemented.
DPlaybook has autopilot disabled. Playbook is unable to take actions without autopilot enabled.

There is a blueprint that creates a Windows VM with IIS and it assigns the categories OSType: Windows and AppType:IIS. Another blueprint creates a Windows VM with VisualStudio Code and Chrome and assigns the categories OSType: Windows and Environment:Dev.

A company wants to adopt a charge-back model for their virtual infrastructure. They have purchased NCM Pro licenses to help with this initiative. With Prism Central, they have created a Category: CostCenter.
Each new VM created must have a CostCenter value assigned to it. The VM requestor should enter their cost center when they request a VM from the Marketplace. The administrator has enabled Pulse to support Cost Governance as part of the solution.
How can the administrator complete this task in Self-Service?
A
Create a blueprint, with a runtime variable for CostCenter.2. Use the Environment to set the CostCenter Category value.3. Publish the blueprint to the Marketplace.
B
Create a blueprint, with Pre-Defined variable for the CostCenter category.2. Use the variable to assign to the Category to the VM.3. Publish the blueprint to the Marketplace.
C
Create a blueprint, with a runtime variable for CostCenter.2. Create a task to map the CostCenter variable to the Category and apply to the VM.3. Publish the blueprint to the Marketplace.
D
Create a blueprint, with a runtime variable for CostCenter.2. Create a Project and associate the variable to the Category CostCenter.3. Publish the blueprint to the Marketplace.
An administrator has created a Self-Service Project and executes a post-deployment Playbook from a blueprint task. Before allowing users to deploy workloads, the administrator wants to validate that both the Project and Playbook configurations are functioning as expected.
What should the administrator do to perform this validation?
ARun the Playbook independently from the Playbook Library without deploying the blueprint.
BTest deploy the blueprint associated with the Project, check the Playbook execution status.
CReview the Prism Element task history, confirm that VM creation logs are present.
DAssign the blueprint to another Project and compare resource usage across both Projects.
An administrator is getting a lot of Memory Usage (%) alerts at 100% and has been tasked with ensuring that action is taken if Memory Usage (%) becomes greater than 95% to avoid application performance issues.
How would the administrator ensure that action is taken for the Playbook when memory exceeds 95%?
ASelect Wait for approval for every attempt checkbox in Playbook.
BSet KPI Target Memory Usage (%) > 95% as first Playbook Action.
CChange Trigger to be based off Critical Memory Usage Alert.
DSet KPI Target Memory Usage (%) > 95% in Autopilot.
An administrator has been assigned a change request to enable dynamic credentials within a project.
How would the administrator configure Self-Service to leverage dynamic credentials?

There is a category called Protection and it has five values: snap_1_hr snap_6_hr snap_24_hr sync_remote_repl async_1hr_repl
An administrator would like to be sure that within the Engineering Project all development VMs have daily snapshots and all production VMs have asynchronous remote replication (every 1 hour).
How can this task be accomplished?
ACreate an environment for development and another one for production in the project, and assign the category Protection: sync_remote_repl for production and Protection: snap_1_hr for development.
BCreate a Playbook to assign the category Protection: async_1hr_repl to production VMs and Protection: snap_24_hr to development VMs, the trigger should be Created VM.
CCreate an environment for development and another one for production in the project, then assign the category Protection: async_1hr_repl for production and Protection: snap_24_hr for development.
DCreate a Playbook to assign the category Protection: snap_1_hr to production VMs and Protection: snap_24_hr to development VMs, the trigger should be Created VM.
An administrator created a Self-Service Project, including a blueprint that deploys a multi-tier application and a Playbook to perform post-deployment automation (e.g., tagging, monitoring setup, and email notifications).
However, during testing, users report that while the VMs are successfully deployed, the post-deployment automation tasks are not executing as expected.
Which two steps should the administrator take to determine the cause of the issue? (Choose two.)
ACheck the Playbook Execution History to verify if the Playbook was triggered and any tasks failed.
BReview the Audit Logs of the Prism Element cluster for VM creation timestamps.
CVerify that the Playbook is properly invoked by the correct blueprint action (e.g. Post-Deploy).
DReassign the blueprint to a different Project and test deployment to rule out project-specific quota limits.
There is a Security Policy that blocks access to VMs on all ports, except for HTTPS (port 443) for VMs with category AppType: Web-Servers. The policy also allows SSH (port 22) traffic for VMs categorized as AppType: Admin-VM. Additionally, a Protection Policy takes snapshots every 24 hours for VMs categorized as Protection: 24_hr_RPO, and an Anti-Affinity Policy is defined for AppType: Web-Servers.
A developer created a blueprint to deploy VMs for Administrators, but the VM cannot be accessed via SSH.
What change must be done to the blueprint?
ABlueprint must assign the AppType: Admin-VM category to the VM.
BBlueprint must use the Protection: 24_hr_RPO Protection Policy.
CBlueprint must add the Administrators to the Project.
DBlueprint must assign the AppType: Web-Servers category to the VM.
