Exam NCP-CN Topic 5 Question 87 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-CN exam
Question #: 87
Topic #: 5
A Kubernetes administrator needs to deploy a new NKP deployment for a DR Datacenter. Cluster information:
* AOS 6.10
* Hypervisor is AHV
* Six NX-8170-G9 NodesWhich command should the administrator use to invoke the prompt-based CLI deployment method?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

The NKPA course outlines the process for deploying an NKP cluster on Nutanix AHV infrastructure using the NKP CLI. For a prompt-based deployment, where the administrator is guided through configuration options interactively, the correct command is nkp create cluster ahv. This command initiates the deployment of an NKP cluster on the AHV hypervisor, prompting the administrator to input details like cluster name, node counts, and networking settings.
The Nutanix Cloud Native (NCP-CN) 6.10 Study Guide states: "To deploy an NKP cluster on AHV using the prompt-based CLI method, use nkp create cluster ahv, which guides the administrator through the configuration process." The command is specific to the AHV hypervisor (part of AOS 6.10) and is suitable for the specified hardware (NX-8170-G9 nodes).
Incorrect Options:
* A. nkp create cluster nutanix: The provider is specified as ahv, not nutanix, in the NKP CLI syntax.
* C. nkp create nodepool nutanix: This creates a node pool, not a cluster, and is not prompt-based.
* D. nkp install kommander: Kommander is a management component, not used for cluster creation on AHV.
