Three of the 93 questions in this pack

Question 1

The team leads of a development environment want to limit developer access to a specific set of VMs.

What is the most efficient way to enable the team leads to directly manage these VMs?

  1. Create a Project for each team lead and assign access.
  2. Create Security Policies to isolate users.
  3. Create a VPC for each team lead and give them VPC Admin.
  4. Create a role mapping for each team lead and assign appropriately.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. Create a Project for each team lead and assign access.

access. Creating a Project for each team lead is the most efficient and direct way to manage access to specific VMs. Projects in Nutanix provide role-based access control where team leads can be assigned as administrators of their respective projects, giving them full management capabilities over the VMs assigned to those projects without unnecessary complexity.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Security Policies are designed for isolating network traffic and security rules, not for managing user access to VM resources.
  • C. Creating a VPC for each team lead is excessive overhead and VPC Admin rights grant broader network-level access than needed for simple VM management.
  • D. Role mapping is a more granular approach that requires additional configuration compared to the straightforward project-based access model.

Question 2

What is supported for creating a VM Template?

  1. VM has disks located on RF2 containers.
  2. VM is an agent or a Prism Central VM.
  3. VM is protected by Protection Domain-based DR.
  4. VM runs on the ESXi hypervisor.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. VM has disks located on RF2 containers.

A VM template can be created from a VM that has disks located on RF2 (Replication Factor 2) containers. RF2 containers provide the redundancy and stability needed for template creation, whereas VMs on RF1 containers or those with other limitations cannot be reliably templated.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Agent VMs and Prism Central VMs are system components that cannot be converted into templates for general use.
  • C. VMs protected by Protection Domain-based DR cannot be used as templates due to their replication and protection configurations.
  • D. Templates in Nutanix are created from native hypervisor VMs (AHV), not from ESXi- based VMs.

Question 3

How can a VM of Volume Group (VG) be associated to a Storage Policy?

  1. Assign the Storage Policy directly on the VM or VG.
  2. Assign the VM or VG directly on the Storage Policy.
  3. Migrate the VM or VG to the Storage Container assigned to the Storage Policy.
  4. Assign the VM or VG to the same Category as the Storage Policy.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. Assign the VM or VG to the same Category as the Storage Policy.

Storage Policy. Storage Policies in Nutanix are associated with VMs and Volume Groups through category assignment. When a VM or VG is assigned to the same category as a Storage Policy, the policy automatically applies to that resource, enabling policy-driven storage management.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Storage Policies cannot be assigned directly on individual VMs or VGs; they use category-based association.
  • B. VMs and VGs are not assigned directly to Storage Policies; the relationship is mediated through categories.
  • C. Migrating VMs to a specific storage container is a separate operation from Storage Policy association and is not the mechanism for policy application.

What makes the NCP-MCI 6.10 hard

NCP-MCI 6.10 is written against AOS 6.10 and Prism Central pc2024.2. It is a hands-on administrator’s exam rather than a concepts one: 75 multiple-choice and multiple-response questions in 120 minutes, scored on a scale from 1000 to 6000 with 3000 needed to pass. Nutanix does not publish percentage weightings for this exam, but it does say question counts follow the criticality of each task, and the blueprint’s five sections make the shape clear.

Nutanix released NCP-MCI 7.5 in mid-2026 and runs both versions side by side during the transition, so check which version your voucher covers before you book.

Cluster management and troubleshooting are the two largest sections. Managing clusters covers storage containers and volume groups, authentication, SSL certificates, AHV hardening, network segmentation, IAM RBAC and projects, NTP, SMTP and syslog, VLAN subnets, virtual switches and load balancing policies, Life Cycle Manager inventory and firmware and software updates, adding and removing nodes and disks, and Intelligent Operations capacity and what-if scenarios. Troubleshooting covers protection policy and recovery plan failures such as network mapping, vNIC and script errors, Metro replication state and design problems, CVM communication and Prism security warnings, LCM inventory and update failures, and reading performance charts and logs to fix a VM configuration.

Managing VMs covers creating, updating and deploying VMs from templates and images, affinity policies, hot versus cold changes, migrations with Move, OVA export, and categories, labels, storage policies and projects. Disaster recovery covers protection policies with async and NearSync, availability zones and remote sites, recovery plans with network mapping and scripts, and Metro Availability on AHV versus vSphere, including witness and split-brain prevention. Custom monitoring covers analysis charts, reports and capacity runway.
