An organization currently has two Objects instances deployed between two sites. Both instances are managed via manage the same Prism Central to…

Nutanix Objects provides a native, asynchronous replication feature for disaster recovery (DR) that operates at the bucket level. To meet the requirement, an administrator must create a replication rule on the source bucket. This rule defines the destination Objects instance and bucket. The configuration options for the rule explicitly allow for the replication of all object versions and delete markers, ensuring that deletions on the source are mirrored on the destination, which is critical for maintaining consistency in a DR scenario. This entire process is managed through Prism Central.

B. With Object Browser, upload the data at thedestination site.

This is a manual, one-time data copy. It does not establish an ongoing, asynchronous replication policy required for a disaster recovery solution.

C. Leverage the Objects Baseline Replication Tool from a Linus VM.

The Baseline Replication Tool is an optional utility used to accelerate the initial data seeding for very large buckets. The replication policy itself is established by the rule, not the tool.

D. Use a protection Domain to replicate the objects Volume Group.

Protection Domains are an AOS feature for replicating block-level entities like Volume Groups. Nutanix Objects data is not replicated using this method; it uses its own native, bucket-level replication.

Chapter: Data Protection and Disaster Recovery > Bucket Replication (Streaming Replication)

Section: Creating a Replication Rule: "You can create a replication rule to replicate objects from a source bucket to a destination bucket... The replication is asynchronous." This section details the process of setting up the rule

which is the correct answer.

Section: Replication Rule Parameters: This section lists the available options when creating a rule

including a checkbox for "Replicate Delete Markers

" which directly addresses a key requirement in the question.

2. Nutanix Objects 4.2 User Guide

Chapter: Data Protection and Disaster Recovery > Baseline Replication

Section: Baseline Replication Overview: "Baseline replication is the initial replication of objects from a source bucket to a destination bucket... After you perform the baseline replication

the streaming replication replicates the new or modified objects." This confirms that the baseline tool (Option C) is for initial seeding

while the replication rule (Option A) governs the ongoing process.

Nutanix Unified Storage Administration (NUSA) v6.5 Courseware

Module 5: Configuring Nutanix Objects

The courseware explains that disaster recovery for Objects is configured via bucket-to-bucket replication rules managed in Prism Central. It explicitly contrasts this with AOS-level replication mechanisms like Protection Domains

stating the latter is not used for object data.
