The Compliance department would like the administrator to have the ability to revert documents to previous versions.
How should the administrator facilitate this request?

Answer: D
Explanation:
Protection snapshots are external snapshots that can be used to recover the file server cluster or individual files and folders1. They can be created through a protection domain schedule or via a user-initiated one-time snapshot of the protection domain1. By configuring protection snapshots on the share/export, the administrator can enable self-service restore for users to revert documents to previous versions2.

NEW QUESTION # 31
A CIO has been reviewing the corporate BCDR plan. In this review, the CIO has noticed that they are replicating their Files deployments using the built in Files DR capabilities that are configured out of the box.
Upon further investigation, the CIO has identified that there are no granular share replications between their Files deployments and has requested the administrator to take an initiative and implement a granular Files Share recovery model.
Which Files capability should the administrator configure in order to be able to failover only certain shares?
- A. Smart Tiering
- B. NC2 on AWS
- C. Smart DR
- D. Data Lens
Answer: C
Explanation:
Smart DR enables granular recovery of individual file shares in Nutanix Files by replicating data at the share level. This allows for more fine-grained control over the failover process and ensures that only critical data is recovered in the event of a disaster or outage.
Files Smart DR is a feature that allows you to replicate between Files instances, either on-premises or running on Nutanix Cloud Clusters on AWS1. With Files Smart DR, you can configure granular share replication, which means you can select which shares to replicate and which ones to exclude1. Therefore, the correct answer to your question is B. Smart DR.
Files Smart DR also supports replicating snapshots between the source share and its target, which can help with data recovery and compliance2. Additionally, Files Smart DR is the mechanism by which Files will support disaster recovery in the Nutanix Xi cloud3.
