Deploy and Configure Self-Service and Related Components
An administrator is configuring Self-Service to centrally manage automation across the corporate environment. The environment uses tunnels to communicate with VMs in protected Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) environments.
How should the administrator configure Self-Service to manage the VMs in a VPC?
AConfigure the policy engine VM within the VPC to enable the tunnel VM to communicate with an external subnet that is routable to Prism Central.
BConfigure an external subnet to the VPC to enable the tunnel VM to reach Prism Central and establish a tunnel connection.
CConfigure an external subnet to the VPC to enable the tunnel VM to reach the policy engine VM and establish a tunnel connection.
DConfigure Prism Central with an additional IP address within the VPC.

A Security Policy denies access to VMs on every port except HTTPS (port 443) for VMs in the AppType: Web-Servers category. It also permits SSH (port 22) traffic for VMs categorized as AppType: Admin-VM. Additionally, a Protection Policy creates snapshots every 24 hours for VMs categorized as Protection: 24_hr_RPO, and an Anti-Affinity Policy is configured for AppType: Web-Servers.
A developer created a blueprint to deploy VMs for Administrators, but the VM cannot be reached through SSH.
What modification must be made 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.

A category named Protection has five values: snap_1_hr, snap_6_hr, snap_24_hr, sync_remote_repl, and async_1hr_repl.
An administrator wants to ensure that, within the Engineering Project, all development VMs receive daily snapshots and all production VMs use asynchronous remote replication (every 1 hour).
How can this 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 and runs a post-deployment Playbook through a blueprint task. Before permitting users to deploy workloads, the administrator wants to confirm that both the Project and Playbook configurations work as intended.
What should the administrator do to validate this?
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 receiving many Memory Usage (%) alerts at 100% and has been assigned to ensure action is taken when Memory Usage (%) rises above 95% to prevent application-performance problems.
How should the administrator ensure the Playbook takes action 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 must create a Self-Service blueprint that deploys a web-server VM and automatically installs an application after provisioning.
Which steps should be included in the blueprint design?
ADefine a VM resource, add guest customization, and add a task to install the application.
BAssign a snapshot policy, configure the cluster, and attach an ISO of the application.
CDefine a VM service, add a VM resource, set the Project, and assign an image category.
DCreate a Playbook, configure categories, and assign users to the Project.
How can a task be listed in the Library?
ACreate a new task in GitHub.
BGo to the Library in Self-Service and Create a new task.
CPublish the task from a Blueprint or Runbook.
DUpload the script from the Projects view.
What must be linked to a Project to enable provisioning of cloud resources?
ATask Library Item
BApproval Policy
CProvider Account
DProject Environment
An administrator has received a change request to enable dynamic credentials in a project.
How should the administrator configure Self-Service to use dynamic credentials?
AUse dynamic credentials for HTTP variable, such as profile variables, service variables, runbooks, etc.
BAllow credential provider when configuring an environment in the project.
CAdd dynamic credential when configuring an environment in the project.
DUse dynamic credentials for HTTP endpoints and Open Terminal in apps.
An administrator must make a newly deployed Prism Central and its associated AHV clusters available to a Project. The administrator created and verified the Nutanix provider account, added it to the Project, and whitelisted the clusters. Project users report that they cannot deploy marketplace blueprints on the new infrastructure.
What should the administrator do?
ACreate a new environment in the Project using the new account.
BAdd the users to the Consumer role on the new account.
CRepublish the blueprint to the marketplace.
DMake sure the provider service account credentials are correct.
An automation developer must create a Self-Service multi-VM blueprint that deploys a Windows Server VM on AHV for testing. A requirement of this blueprint is to request and obtain an IP address for the VM from the IP Address Management solution through its REST API, without writing a script to perform the task.
Which task type should the developer select to meet this requirement?
AUse a Set Variable task and use the script language of choice to obtain an IP address and output it as a Service variable to be used in the blueprint.
BUse an HTTP task to obtain an IP address and output it as a Service variable to be used in the blueprint.
CUse an Execute task and use the script language of choice to obtain an IP address.
DUse a Delay task to pause the automation flow while waiting to obtain an IP address.
An application developer has been assigned Operator permissions in a Project. The developer must create a blueprint that creates a Linux VM with NGINX installed and configured.
