Question:
An administrator is deployingFile Analytics. The following subnets are available:
* CVM subnet: 10.1.1.0/24
* AHV subnet: 10.1.2.0/24
* Nutanix Files client network: 10.1.3.0/24
* Nutanix Files storage network: 10.1.4.0/24
The administrator has reserved10.1.4.100as the File Analytics IP. However, the deploymentfailswith the error shown:
"Error creating volume group, please check logs for more details."
What action must the administrator take to successfully deploy File Analytics?
Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer
According to the NUSA course materials,File Analyticsis designed to be deployed on thesame networkas the Nutanix Filesclient networkbecause:
File Analyticsaccesses file share metadata and analytics datathrough the same SMB/NFS protocolsused by clients accessing the shares.
Using theclient networkensures that File Analytics canconnect to the SMB/NFS endpoints, collect activity logs, and provide visibility without traversing storage-only traffic.
Using thestorage network(as was done with IP 10.1.4.100 in this case) leads to deployment errors because:
"The storage network in Nutanix Files is used exclusively for data replication and cluster-level operations- not for client or analytics traffic. Using this network for File Analytics deployment causes communication failures." Thus, the administrator mustredeploy File Analytics on the Files client network (10.1.3.0/24), ensuring proper access and connectivity.
The firewall port configuration (ports 445/139) is relevant for SMB traffic butnotthe root cause of the deployment error in this case.
