What is the expected operation during node addition when the new node has a different AOS version?
What is the expected operation during node addition when the new node has a different AOS version?
When adding a new node with a different AOS version to the cluster, the node is automatically re-imaged using the version of the software currently running in the cluster. This ensures that all nodes in the cluster are running the same version of the software for compatibility and stability reasons.
as per version 5.15, answer is A
A is correct
CORRECT ANSWER ITS A https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Web-Console-Guide-Prism-v5_19:wc-cluster-expand-wc-r.html
A is the correct answer - question is just focused on AOS not on hypervisor
---from the link given by Gui--- Use Foundation to image the nodes (if needed) before attempting to add them to the cluster. So, the answer should be D?
The answer is "E". The node is reimaged before it is added. Per doc https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Web-Console-Guide-Prism-v5_16:wc-cluster-expand-wc-r.html . This is not an automatic process so there is no correct answer.
E ? Are you serious ? "E" answer dosen't existe...
Prism Web Console Guide 5.15 - seems it was once not automatic but is now https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Web-Console-Guide-Prism-v5_15:wc-cluster-expand-wc-r.html
Node should be reimaged automatically under certain conditions. Please refer following link. https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Web-Console-Guide-Prism-v5_10:wc-cluster-expand-wc-r.html Answer is A
https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Web-Console-Guide-Prism-v5_16%3Awc-cluster-expand-wc-r.html
A -> https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Web-Console-Guide-Prism-v5_16%3Awc-cluster-expand-wc-r.html
D is correct.
Answer is B Note: If the AOS version on the node is different (lower) but the hypervisor version is the same, you can upgrade just AOS from the command line. To upgrade AOS, log on to a Controller VM in the cluster and run the following command: nutanix@cvm$ /home/nutanix/cluster/bin/cluster -u new_node_cvm_ip_address upgrade_node After the upgrade is complete, you can add the node to the cluster without reimaging it. Alternately, if the AOS version on the node is higher than the cluster, you must either upgrade the cluster to that version or reimage the node. To upgrade your cluster, see the Acropolis Upgrade Guide.
Sorry I mean D is correct
The question doesnt say if the AOS of the new node is higher or lower than the AOS of the Cluster, therefor the only correct answer for both situations is "A". Nutanix site: Alternately, if the AOS version on the node is higher than the cluster, you must either upgrade the cluster to that version or reimage the node.

same hypervisor version but different AOS version -> The node is reimaged before it is added.
The answer is A, it has always been A
