Nutanix NCP-MCI-6.10 Question Answer

An administrator is executing a storage performance test between two Microsoft Windows VMs. The first VM was deployed by using a template, while the second one was created from scratch.

Results show that VMs have very different metrics when using the same performance test. The first VM reaches 8000 IOPS, while the second struggles reaching 500/800 IOPS. Currently the AHV cluster is not under pressure.

How can the administrator determine why these results were produced?

Verify both VMs have installed Nutanix Guest Tools.

Enable AHV Turbo on the second VM.

Compare vDisk bus type between VMs.

Check number of VCPUs assigned to VMs
