Q: 12
An administrator has been tasked with developing a Prism Central Recovery Plan for 50 workloads
that will be assigned new IP addresses and will need to utilize a new DNS server upon instantiation of
workloads in the Disaster Recovery (DR) location.
What is the best way to accomplish this?

Had something like this in a mock, pretty sure it's B. Scripting in the Recovery Sequence is what you use to automate all the network and DNS changes for bulk workloads. Manual updates just wouldn't scale here. Agree?
My vote is B, pretty sure scripting is expected here for automation-C is a trap since it's not scalable for 50 VMs.
Its A because Nutanix Guest Tools can handle re-IP for workloads, just not sure if DNS always updates with it.
Yeah, nutanix scripting in the recovery sequence (B) is made for automating stuff like re-IP and DNS changes at DR. Doing this manually for 50 workloads just isn't practical. Pretty confident it's B, but I suppose A could work in some rare setups.
I'd say B makes sense since custom scripts in the Recovery Plan automate IP and DNS changes for all VMs. Honestly, official guides and hands-on labs both mention this approach, but I'm not 100% sure if A could maybe work too. Agree?
Pretty sure B is what Nutanix wants here since scripting in the Recovery Sequence lets you update IP and DNS for all VMs at once. No way you'd want to do C (manual updates) for 50 workloads, that's just not realistic. Open to being proven wrong but automation is key for DR scenarios!
Scripting in the recovery sequence is really the way to go here. B
C/D? Had something really close to this on my real exam, went with C because manual login sounded like it would work if scripts fail.
