This is because this option will enable the administrator to add a Nutanix cluster as a new connection

by installing and registering the plugin on the Delivery Controllers that manage the connection type

menu.

vCenter can execute approximately 640 concurrent operations before incoming requests are queued,

and can support up to 2,000 concurrent sessions1. VMware Horizon 8 can support up to 120,000

active sessions in a Cloud Pod Architecture pod federation23. Therefore, if the environment has

10,000 virtual desktops, one vCenter instance might not be enough to handle all the operations and

sessions efficiently. The recommended number of vCenter instances in this configuration is B (2).

an action that the administrator should take to enable Shadow Clones for a VMWare Horizon

Solution on AHV is Connect to Prism Central and execute the cluster enable –cluster_cluster_uuid

0xxx – show_clones=true command. Shadow Clones are a feature that helps decrease read latency

by creating local copies of frequently accessed data blocks on each host2. To enable Shadow Clones,

the administrator needs to connect to Prism Central and run a cluster command with the appropriate

parameters1.

The feature in Nutanix that would be used to complete the task of deploying virtual desktops to a

Hyper-V Nutanix cluster with writable differencing disks using a read-only master image with clones

that link back to the image is Shadow Clones. Shadow Clones allow for the creation of a snapshot or

a clone of a VM that uses the original VM's disks as read-only, and only writes changes to a separate

differencing disk. This is useful when deploying virtual desktops as it can reduce storage

requirements and improve performance.

Nutanix shadow clones are a feature that enables distributed caching of virtual disks (vDisks) that are

in a multi-reader scenario. This can improve performance and reduce network traffic for scenarios

such as VDI or private clone boot storms1

gpumodeswitch is a command-line tool that is used to switch supported NVIDIA GPUs between

compute and graphics mode. Compute mode allows multiple VMs to share a GPU for CUDA

workloads. Graphics mode allows a single VM to use a GPU for graphics workloads12.
