Explanation:
Do not configure storage-saving functionalities such as compression, deduplication, or erasure coding (EC-X) on a storage container that holds production database files. Because of the way the SAP HANA Persistence Engine stores data,
these features deliver no benefits. Nutanix SAP Engineering has tested compression with SAP HANA workloads; the tests indicate no noticeable performance impact but also show no reduction in the space the SAP HANA workload
consumes.

What is causing this issue?

A. Incorrect link speeds on the switch

B. The interface is incorrectly configured with Jumbo Frames
C. A misconfigured bond
D. A physical layer network problem

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation: rx_crc_errors are caused either by faults is layer 1 (in the past, we have seen failed twinax cables and incorrect types of fibre being used), or issues with jumbo frames on the network. In an environment with 10 Gig switches
that use cutthrough forwarding (Cisco Nexus, Arista, Cisco devices using IOS default to Store and Forward switching), any packets that come into the switch will get forwarded out the destination interface once the switch has read the
destination MAC address. If that packet has an MTU over what is configured on the interface, it will cut off the packet at the designated MTU, causing the server to receive a malformed packet, which will throw a CRC error. If you have a
layer 1 issue, you will see rx_crc_errors, not on all but one or two nodes.

Dual Disks Failures:
With Replication Factor = 2, we have two copies of each data block. Also, with a 4TB Disk which is only 1TB utilized, we will have 1TB worth of blocks/data across the cluster (shorter rebuild times as we factor in the capacity
utilized) – plus with AOS proactive disk alerting, so, unless two disks are pulled at the same time, this can be a very rare occurrence of two drives failing at the same time.

Switch information on Nutanix AHV
Managing and troubleshooting virtual guests’ network connectivity issues is quite difficult, if you do not have right information about upstream switches. It is crucial to understand how Nutanix hosts are connected, hosting switch name,
location, switch port number. Nutanix AHV leverages OVS (Open VSwitch) to manage AHV hosts and Guest OS network connectivity. OVS can use LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol) to pull information from physical switches. LLDP is
automatically enabled on Nutanix AHV. To have LLDP discovery working you have to enable it on the network port switches as well. Nutanix AHV will automatically pull switch information and present it in the Prism. In Prism Element, on
