   A network engineer is configuring the Cisco Nexus switches for a FlexPod. The design requires that the two Nexus switches act as a single logical switch for the compute and storage VLANs, and that they use a single management IP. Which feature should be configured?

   • ASpanning Tree Protocol (STP)
   • BVirtual Port Channel (vPC)
   • CVLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP)
   • DPortChannel

   A FlexPod deployment is planned for a small data center with limited rack space and power. The design includes two UCS fabric interconnects, one chassis, and two NetApp storage shelves. The facility has a single 30A 208V circuit available for the entire rack. The administrator must ensure the deployment can be powered on without exceeding the circuit capacity. What is the best approach?

   • ACalculate the total power draw of all components and verify it is within the circuit's capacity before installation.
   • BReduce the number of power supplies in each component to lower the power draw.
   • CUse a power distribution unit (PDU) to connect all components to the circuit, assuming it will handle the load.
   • DInstall the hardware and then measure the actual power draw to see if it exceeds the circuit capacity.

   During FlexPod installation, the cabling team connects the UCS fabric interconnects to the Nexus switches. After powering on, the fabric interconnect uplinks show as 'not connected' in UCS Manager. What is the most likely cause?

   • AThe fabric interconnects are not in the same cluster.
   • BThe fiber cables are not properly seated or are the wrong type.
   • CThe Nexus switches are not running the correct NX-OS version.
   • DThe uplink ports on the Nexus switches are configured as access ports in the wrong VLAN.

   A FlexPod deployment is planned for a colocation facility. The facility provides 208V AC power and has a limited cooling capacity. The hardware list includes two UCS fabric interconnects, one chassis, and two NetApp storage shelves. Which prerequisite check is critical before installation?

   • AVerify that the facility has a backup generator.
   • BConfirm that the rack is at least 42U tall.
   • CEnsure that the facility has a raised floor for cable management.
   • DVerify that the power and cooling capacity of the facility meets the total load of all components.
