QuestionQ15

Section 2 – Configure and Utilize Nutanix Unified Storage

An organization currently operates a Files cluster for its back-office data, including all departmental shares. Most of this data is considered Cold Data, and the organization wants to migrate it to free space for future growth or newer data.

The organization recently added an additional node with more storage. In addition, it uses the Public Cloud for other storage needs.

What is the best way to meet this requirement?

Explanation

Nutanix Files Smart Tiering moves cold file data to supported object storage, including public-cloud targets, while retaining file metadata and access pointers in Files. This reclaims local Files capacity for newer or growing data without requiring a separate cluster, tape migration, or a third-party backup workflow.
