Prism_v4_7:lic_licensing_ma Reclaiming Licenses (Including License Renewal) You can reclaim and
optionally re-apply licenses for nodes in your clusters:
* You must reclaim licenses when you plan to destroy a cluster. First reclaim the licenses, then
destroy the cluster. You do not need to reclaim Starter licenses. These licenses are automatically
applied whenever you create a cluster, including after you have destroyed a cluster.
* Return licenses to your inventory when you remove one or more nodes from a cluster. Also, if you
move nodes from one cluster to another, first reclaim the licenses, move the nodes, then re-apply
the licenses.
* You can reclaim licenses for nodes in your clusters in cases where you want to make modifications
or downgrade licenses. For example, applying an Ultimate license to all nodes in a cluster where
some nodes are currently licensed as Pro and some nodes are licensed as Ultimate. You might also
want to transition nodes from Ultimate to Pro licensing.
* You must reclaim licenses when you renew licenses. First reclaim the expired licenses, then apply
new licenses.

You can check one or both boxes. If neither box is checked, no alert emails are sent by Prism Central.
* Check the Nutanix Support box to send alert notification to Nutanix customer support.
* To send alert notifications to others, enter their email addresses in a comma separate list in the
field below the Nutanix Support
* Click the Apply button to apply the changes and continue the configuration (or click the Save button
to apply the changes and close the window).

NO.163 A node has two SSDs in Slot0 and Slot 1. The SSD in Slot 1 fails.
What is the result?
A. The CVM reboots. Other running VMs do not reboot, and the SSD capacity is reduced.
B. The CVM and other running VMs do not reboot, and the SSD capacity is reduced.
C. The CVM is down. AHV takes over serving storage to the node, and the SSD capacity is reduced.
D. The CVM is down. Another CVM takes over serving storage to the node, and the SSD capacity is
42
reduced.
Answer: B
Explanation
With 2 SSD's, if slot 0 fails the Cvm reboots and will recover using slot1, vm rights/reads flow to other
nodes while Cvm is restarting. If slot 1 fails, no Cvm reboot occurs but SSD capacity is reduced,
missing blocks are retrieved from other nodes as needed and re protected. If both SSD's fail, the Cvm
is down and all read/writes are done to other nodes.

2029_AHV Administrators can use Acropolis with IPAM to deliver a complete virtualization
deployment, including network management, from the unified Prism interface. This capability
radically simplifies the traditionally complex network management associated with provisioning VMs
and assigning network addresses. To avoid address overlap, be sure to work with your network team
to reserve a range of addresses for VMs before enabling the IPAM feature.
The Acropolis master assigns an IP address from the address pool when creating a managed VM NIC;
the address releases back to the pool when the VM NIC or VM is deleted.
