NCP-MCA Dumps With Exact Questions and Answers

To automate the creation of a new user in GitLab for every new development environment, the administrator should perform the following tasks within a Calm blueprint:

Create an HTTP pre-create task to create the user in GitLab via REST API. This task will send an HTTP request to the GitLab server with the user information and credentials, and receive a response with the user ID and status. The administrator can use the response to verify the user creation and store the user ID as a variable for later use.

Create runtime-editable variables for user and password in the blueprint. These variables will allow the administrator to specify the user name and password for the new GitLab user at the time of launching the blueprint. The variables can be passed as parameters to the HTTP pre-create task and used in the REST API call.

The other two options are not correct because:

Adding a task within the service to ask for user and password at runtime is redundant and unnecessary, as the runtime-editable variables can already provide this functionality.

Creating a task script to login with ssh to GitLab and create a random user and password is not a good practice, as it exposes the GitLab server to security risks and does not use the REST API that GitLab provides for user management. References:

Showback is a feature in Calm that allows administrators to track and report the costs of running applications and projects on different cloud platforms. Showback can be enabled in the Setting menu of Calm, under the Showback tab. There, the administrator can configure the cost models, cloud accounts, and currency for Showback. Showback can also be accessed from the Dashboard menu, where the administrator can view the cost reports and charts for different applications and projects. References:

The error message “INTERNAL_ERROR: ErrorCode: 9” typically indicates an issue with the SSH service on the VMs. In this context, where a playbook is being executed to shut down Linux VMs, it’s essential that the SSH service is running to allow for remote management and execution of commands. If the SSH service isn’t running, the playbook won’t be able to execute commands on the VMs, leading to an internal error.

UESTION NO: 80

An administrator is unable to launch a Calm blueprint (new and old). Launching an existing blueprint under this condition fails with the error message:

The project for this blueprint does not have any associated Nutanix account.

Downloading and uploading the new blueprint also fails with

Launch with Variables' Profile expected to fall as Windows Server VWs attached with deleted Account.

Please modify them to use different account and try again.

Why is the administrator seeing this issue?

A. The account is in a failed state.

B. The has not been created.

C. The account is not verified.

D. The account been deleted.

Answer: D

The error messages indicate that the blueprint is trying to use a Nutanix account that no longer exists. This could happen if the account was deleted by another administrator or by a playbook action. The administrator should check the project settings and verify that the Nutanix account is still available and associated with the project. If not, the administrator should create a new account or use an existing one and update the blueprint accordingly. References: Nutanix Certified Professional - Multicloud Automation (NCP-MCA) 6.5 Exam Blueprint Guide, page 9; Nutanix Certified Professional - Multicloud Automation (NCP-MCA), section 3; Nutanix NCP-MCA Certification Exam Sample Questions, question 80.
