Question: 1 / 300

Which two features require the Nutanix Guest Tools package to be installed?

Volume Snapshot Services and Data Protection

Self-Service Restore and VM Backup

Volume Snapshot Services and Self-Service Restore

The Nutanix Guest Tools package is essential for enabling advanced features that require integration with the guest operating system in virtual machines. In the context of this question, the combination of Volume Snapshot Services and Self-Service Restore specifically relies on the capabilities provided by the Guest Tools.

Volume Snapshot Services are designed to create snapshots of virtual machine disks. For these snapshots to be consistent and capture the state of applications, Nutanix Guest Tools must be installed. The tools help by coordinating with the applications to ensure that data is in a stable state at the time the snapshot is taken, thus preventing data corruption.

Self-Service Restore allows users to restore files or data from backups easily without needing to go through a centralized management console. For this feature to effectively interact with the guest OS and present options to the user, Nutanix Guest Tools are required. These tools facilitate communication between the backup system and the virtual machine, making self-service restoration a seamless process.

Therefore, the accurate pair of features that necessitate the installation of the Nutanix Guest Tools package are Volume Snapshot Services and Self-Service Restore.
