Nutanix Certified Professional - Cloud Native v6.10 - NCP-CN-6.10 Exam Questions [2026]

QUESTION NO: 1
A Cloud Engineer is deploying an NKP cluster into an AWS environment. By default, when deploying NKP on AWS infrastructure, it generates the supporting infrastructure necessary for the cluster (VPC, subnets, ELBs). However, the AWS team has insisted that the NKP cluster be deployed on existing AWS infrastructure. How can the engineer meet this requirement?

A. Create an overrides file with the pre-existing VPC, subnets, and ELB to use. When using the nkp create cluster aws command set, include the overrides parameter with the overrides file that was created. B. When using the nkp create cluster aws command set, include the valid parameters with the pre- existing VPC, subnets, and ELB to use. C. Create an NKP infrastructure provider for AWS in the NKP UI. When deploying the NKP cluster through the UI, specify the pre-existing VPC, subnets, and ELB to use in the appropriate fields of the 'Infrastructure' section of the Create Cluster page. D. When using the nkp adopt infrastructure aws command set, include the valid parameters with the pre-existing VPC, subnets, and ELB to use. Deploy the NKP cluster using the nkp create cluster aws command set.

Correct Answer: A

QUESTION NO: 2
A Cloud Engineer would like to configure an NKP cluster that is running in the cloud to dynamically expand and compact its resource capacity for running container workloads. This will help ensure efficient use of resources without impacting online retail transaction performance that is increasingly hitting unpredictable spikes and lulls.
Which autoscaling method does NKP use and how does it scale?

A. Horizontal-Pod autoscaler and worker node CPU/memory sizing B. Horizontal-Pod autoscaler and worker node replicas C. Cluster autoscaler and worker node CPU/memory sizing D. Cluster autoscaler and worker node replicas

Correct Answer: D

QUESTION NO: 3
A Platform Engineer has deployed NKP and wants to utilize its OOB data storage feature.
What should the engineer enable to support backups within the NKP environment?

A. MinIO B. Volumes iSCSI C. Rook Ceph D. Objects S3

Correct Answer: C

QUESTION NO: 4
A technology company has decided to migrate its infrastructure to NKP to improve the scalability and management of its applications. After a successful initial implementation, the operations team faces a new challenge of validating the HelmReleases to ensure that all applications are running correctly and avoid problems in production. Which command should the company execute to know the right status of their HelmReleases?

A. kubectl get helmreleases -n ${PROJECT_NAMESPACE} B. kubectl edit helmreleases -n ${PROJECT_NAMESPACE} C. kubectl get namespaces D. kubectl apply -f fluent-bit-overrides.yaml

Correct Answer: A

QUESTION NO: 5
A Platform Engineer is deploying an NKP cluster within an air-gapped AWS environment.
However, after an infrastructure planning session with the network team, it's been determined that the default CIDR block range that is used by pods on NKP clusters is already in use in their environment. How can the engineer ensure there are no collisions between NKP pod traffic and the existing network using that subnet range?

A. Because the environment is air-gapped, there will be no network traffic collision concerns and no adjustment needs to be made to the pod network CIDR block range. B. Create the NKP cluster's manifest using the nkp create cluster command set and include the pod CIDR block range parameter when generating the cluster manifest.Deploy the NKP cluster manifest. C. Create an NKP infrastructure provider for AWS in the NKP UI.Select the Advanced Options button from the Network section of the Create Cluster page and specify a unique CIDR block range within the pod network field. D. Create an NKP infrastructure provider for AWS in the NKP UI.When deploying the NKP cluster through the UI, specify a unique CIDR block range for the pod network field in the Network section of the Create Cluster page.

Correct Answer: B

QUESTION NO: 6
A company has decided to expand NKP to features that require higher product tiers, like fleet- management and additional infrastructure providers. The company has already obtained the necessary licensing. Which action is required when adding and activating a license from NKP Starter to a higher-tier product?

A. Ensure that worker nodes are sized appropriately. B. Log out and log back in as a Global License Administrator. C. Contact Nutanix Support. D. Regenerate the ACME-based certificate for NKP.

Correct Answer: B

QUESTION NO: 7
