In a Nutanix environment managed by Prism Central, protecting workloads and SQL servers from a

disaster involves creating a recovery policy. A recovery policy in Nutanix is a set of rules that define

how data is protected and recovered in the event of a disaster1.

Creating a new recovery policy involves selecting the virtual machines (VMs) that need to be

protected and specifying the hardware requirements for the recovery environment1. This includes

the compute and storage resources needed to run the protected VMs in the recovery site1.

Once the recovery policy is created, Nutanix’s built-in data protection and disaster recovery

capabilities can ensure that the protected VMs can be quickly and efficiently recovered in the event

of a disaster2. This includes capabilities such as efficient snapshot, cloning, and replication

capabilities to provide a higher level of protection at a lower cost2.

Therefore, to meet the CEO’s request, the IT administrator should create a new Recovery policy by

selecting the VM that needs to be protected and get hardware requirements.
