On which entity is Replication Factor configured?
The Replication Factor is configured on the container in Nutanix. This setting determines the number of copies of VM data and the Oplog that are maintained within the Nutanix cluster to ensure data redundancy and reliability.
Incorrect - Container is the right answer
Correct Ans is D What is Replication factor (RF)? Nutanix Replication Factor states for a number of data copies on Nutanix cluster (VM data and Oplog). For example, if you have Replication Factor 2 (RF=2) set on the container, meaning every VM data block has 2 copies on the Nutanix cluster (including data in Oplog). With RF=3, all VM data has 3 copies of data on different blocks. NOTE #1: You can have a container with RF=2 and another container with RF=3 configured on the same Nutanix cluster. NOTE #2: Changing container replication Factor from RF=2 to RF=3, consumes more storage space on Nutanix cluster (because systems have to keep 3 copies of the VM data which are on containers with RF=3).

D. The Replication Factor (RF) in Nutanix is configured at the container level. It determines the number of data copies for VM data and Oplog within the Nutanix cluster.
