The Nutanix NCM-MCI-6.5 exam, officially titled Nutanix Certified Master - Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) v6.5, is the required test for earning the Nutanix Certified Master - Multicloud Infrastructure certification, a credential at the Master level. Passing it validates the skills Nutanix expects from certified professionals, and it can also support progress toward related credentials such as Nutanix Certified Professional - Multicloud Infrastructure (NCP-MCI), Nutanix Certified Master (NCM) track certifications.
The NCM-MCI-6.5 exam includes 16–20 scenario-based tasks questions, and you have 180 minutes to complete it. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count so you know the pace you need to hold, and practice flagging time-consuming items for review instead of stalling on a single question. Timed sessions in the Actualtests4sure test engine are the easiest way to build that rhythm before it counts.
You need 3000 (scaled 1000–6000) to pass the NCM-MCI-6.5 exam, and the official registration fee is $299 USD. Keep in mind that a failed attempt means paying that fee in full again for a retake, so avoid booking your seat on a hunch. Work through the Actualtests4sure practice test until your scores sit comfortably above the passing requirement before you schedule the exam.

Scroll up to the Exam Topics section for the complete breakdown, and use it to plan how much study time each domain deserves.
Task4
An administrator will be deploying Flow Networking and needs to validate that the environment, specifically switch vs1, is appropriately configured. Only VPC traffic should be carried by the switch.
Four versions each of two possible commands have been placed in Desktop\Files\Network\flow.txt. Remove the hash mark (#) from the front of correct First command and correct Second command and save the file.
Only one hash mark should be removed from each section. Do not delete or copy lines, do not add additional lines. Any changes other than removing two hash marks (#) will result in no credit.
Also, SSH directly to any AHV node (not a CVM) in the cluster and from the command line display an overview of the Open vSwitch configuration. Copy and paste this to a new text file named Desktop\Files\Network\AHVswitch.txt.
Note: You will not be able to use the 192.168.5.0 network in this environment.
First command
#net.update_vpc_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs0
net.update_vpc_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs1
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs0
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs1
Second command
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_all_traffic=true
net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_vpc_traffic=true
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_all_traffic=false
#net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_vpc_traffic=false
Explanation
First, you need to open the Prism Central CLI from the Windows Server 2019 workstation. You can do this by clicking on the Start menu and typing "Prism Central CLI". Then, you need to log in with the credentials provided to you.
Second, you need to run the two commands that I have already given you in Desktop\Files\Network\flow.txt.
These commands are:
net.update_vpc_traffic_config virtual_switch=vs1 net.update_vpc_east_west_traffic_config permit_vpc_traffic=true These commands will update the virtual switch that carries the VPC traffic to vs1, and update the VPC east-west traffic configuration to allow only VPC traffic. You can verify that these commands have been executed successfully by running the command:
net.get_vpc_traffic_config
This command will show you the current settings of the virtual switch and the VPC east-west traffic configuration.
Third, you need to SSH directly to any AHV node (not a CVM) in the cluster and run the command:
ovs-vsctl show
This command will display an overview of the Open vSwitch configuration on the AHV node. You can copy and paste the output of this command to a new text file named Desktop\Files\Network\AHVswitch.txt.
You can use any SSH client such as PuTTY or Windows PowerShell to connect to the AHV node. You will need the IP address and the credentials of the AHV node, which you can find in Prism Element or Prism Central.
remove # from greens
On AHV execute:
sudo ovs-vsctl show
CVM access AHV access command
nutanix@NTNX-A-CVM:192.168.10.5:~$ ssh [email protected] "ovs-vsctl show" Open AHVswitch.txt and copy paste output
Task 2
An administrator needs to configure storage for a Citrix-based Virtual Desktop infrastructure.
Two VDI pools will be created
Non-persistent pool names MCS_Pool for tasks users using MCS Microsoft Windows 10 virtual Delivery Agents (VDAs) Persistent pool named Persist_Pool with full-clone Microsoft Windows 10 VDAs for power users
20 GiB capacity must be guaranteed at the storage container level for all power user VDAs The power user container should not be able to use more than 100 GiB Storage capacity should be optimized for each desktop pool.
Configure the storage to meet these requirements. Any new object created should include the name of the pool(s) (MCS and/or Persist) that will use the object.
Do not include the pool name if the object will not be used by that pool.
Any additional licenses required by the solution will be added later.
See the Explanation for step by step solution.
Explanation
To configure the storage for the Citrix-based VDI, you can follow these steps:
Log in to Prism Central using the credentials provided.
Go to Storage > Storage Pools and click on Create Storage Pool.
Enter a name for the new storage pool, such as VDI_Storage_Pool, and select the disks to include in the pool.
You can choose any combination of SSDs and HDDs, but for optimal performance, you may prefer to use more SSDs than HDDs.
Click Save to create the storage pool.
Go to Storage > Containers and click on Create Container.
Enter a name for the new container for the non-persistent pool, such as MCS_Pool_Container, and select the storage pool that you just created, VDI_Storage_Pool, as the source.
Under Advanced Settings, enable Deduplication and Compression to reduce the storage footprint of the non-persistent desktops. You can also enable Erasure Coding if you have enough nodes in your cluster and want to save more space. These settings will help you optimize the storage capacity for the non-persistent pool.
Click Save to create the container.
Go to Storage > Containers and click on Create Container again.
Enter a name for the new container for the persistent pool, such as Persist_Pool_Container, and select the same storage pool, VDI_Storage_Pool, as the source.
Under Advanced Settings, enable Capacity Reservation and enter 20 GiB as the reserved capacity. This will guarantee that 20 GiB of space is always available for the persistent desktops. You can also enter 100 GiB as the advertised capacity to limit the maximum space that this container can use. These settings will help you control the storage allocation for the persistent pool.
Click Save to create the container.
Go to Storage > Datastores and click on Create Datastore.
Enter a name for the new datastore for the non-persistent pool, such as MCS_Pool_Datastore, and select NFS as the datastore type. Select the container that you just created, MCS_Pool_Container, as the source.
Click Save to create the datastore.
Go to Storage > Datastores and click on Create Datastore again.
Enter a name for the new datastore for the persistent pool, such as Persist_Pool_Datastore, and select NFS as the datastore type. Select the container that you just created, Persist_Pool_Container, as the source.
Click Save to create the datastore.
The datastores will be automatically mounted on all nodes in the cluster. You can verify this by going to Storage > Datastores and clicking on each datastore. You should see all nodes listed under Hosts.
You can now use Citrix Studio to create your VDI pools using MCS or full clones on these datastores. For more information on how to use Citrix Studio with Nutanix Acropolis, seeCitrix Virtual Apps and Desktops on NutanixorNutanix virtualization environments.
