Which node type does a Nutanix Controller VM deploy?
A Nutanix Controller VM is deployed on a Hyper Converged (HCI) node type. In Hyper Converged Infrastructure, the storage, compute, and networking resources are integrated and managed through software, often with a Controller VM to handle the storage services and various management tasks. This integration simplifies management and enhances performance by providing resource locality and reducing latency.
The question is wrong here. It should be"What node type does not deploy a Nutanix CVM?" And the answer is "Compute only"
Sounds about right, CO nodes do not have a Controller VM (CVM) and local storage: https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=AHV-Admin-Guide-v6_0:wc-compute-only-node-configuration-c.html
I think it is B
Yes it's B
HCI option B.

Correct Answer: D, CVM always deployed on SSD, even if you choose hybrid option.
The correct answer is B. There are only three node types, HCI, Storage, and Compute. https://next.nutanix.com/how-it-works-22/what-are-the-nutanix-compute-nodes-37488
Answer is C COMPUTE ONLY Key Features of Compute-Only Node Following are the key features of CO nodes. CO nodes do not have a Controller VM (CVM) and local storage.
C is correct! From Nutanix AOS 5.11 onward, AHV clusters can include a new type of node that doesn't run a local CVM. These compute-only nodes are for specialized use cases and have specific initial cluster requirements with strict scaling constraints. Because standard HCI nodes (running CVMs) provide storage from the distributed fabric, CO nodes cannot benefit from data locality.
