An administrator needs to register a Nutanix cluster with NDB.
Which condition requires the administrator to create a manual storage mapping between the remote container and NDB provisioning container?
When registering a Nutanix cluster with NDB, a manual storage mapping between the remote container and the NDB provisioning container is required if the NDB Server container and NDB Provisioning container are separate. This separation occurs when the storage containers used by the NDB server (for its own operations) and the provisioning container (for database VMs) are distinct, either due to multi-cluster setups or custom configurations. Manual mapping ensures NDB can correctly allocate storage resources and manage database provisioning across these containers.
Other conditions do not necessitate manual mapping:
B . Disaster Recovery Network Segmentation is enabled on the cluster: This affects networking, not storage mapping.
C . Nutanix Database Service High Availability is enabled on the cluster: HA configurations handle replication, not container mapping.
D . DB VMs are stored in the NDB Server or NDB Provisioning container: This is a typical setup and does not require manual mapping unless containers differ.
Thus, the verified answer is A, addressing storage container separation.

Before registering a database server VM to NDB, what should an administrator use to verify all required software and configuration dependencies?
Before registering a database server VM to NDB, an administrator must verify that all required software (e.g., database engine, OS dependencies) and configuration settings (e.g., WinRM for Windows, SSH for Linux) are in place. NDB provides a prerequisites script, which can be run on the target VM to check these dependencies automatically. This script ensures compatibility and readiness, reducing registration failures.
Option A (LCM - Lifecycle Manager) is incorrect because LCM is used for cluster upgrades, not VM prerequisite checks.
Option B (Upgrade Software) is incorrect as it applies to updating existing software, not initial dependency verification.
Option C (Prerequisites script) is correct as it is the designated tool for pre-registration validation.
Option D (NCC - Nutanix Cluster Check) is incorrect because NCC checks cluster health, not VM-specific software dependencies.

An administrator needs to make new VLANs available when provisioning a Oracle cluster database, which have been added to NDB via the Administration menu.
What needs to be done to expose the new VLANs for provisioning?
Nutanix NDB gives an administrator the ability to create highly-available database pairs with which two databases? (Choose two.)
Nutanix NDB provides the ability to create highly-available (HA) database pairs, leveraging replication and failover across clusters. The two databases explicitly supported for HA pairs in NDB are PostgreSQL and SQL Server. NDB orchestrates HA for PostgreSQL using streaming replication and for SQL Server using Always On Availability Groups or Failover Cluster Instances, ensuring data redundancy and failover capabilities across Nutanix clusters.
Other options are not supported for HA pairs:
A . MySQL: MySQL is supported by NDB but lacks native HA pair configuration.
D . MariaDB: Similar to MySQL, MariaDB is managed by NDB but does not support HA pairs.
Thus, the verified answers are B and C, reflecting NDB's HA capabilities.

It becomes necessary to remove an existing database clone. "To minimize the impact of that removal to users, an administrator would like to schedule this operation for weekend hours.
When scheduling this removal, other than the specified date/time, which option in the Update Removal Schedule is pre-selected as non-optional?
When an administrator schedules the removal of an existing database clone to minimize user impact (e.g., during weekend hours), the 'Update Removal Schedule' feature in NDB allows for planning the operation. Among the options, the 'Delete supporting snapshot from NDB' is pre-selected as a non-optional action. This ensures that the snapshot data associated with the clone is removed along with the clone itself, maintaining storage efficiency and consistency in the Time Machine framework. Other options may be selectable but are not mandatory by default.
Option A (Create an alert before removal) is incorrect because alerts are optional notifications, not a required action.
Option B (Delete supporting snapshot from NDB) is correct as it is a default, non-optional step to clean up snapshot data.
Option C (Unregister the database clone from NDB) is incorrect because unregistration is an optional administrative step, not pre-selected.
Option D (Delete the database clone from the VM) is incorrect because the clone deletion itself is the primary action, but snapshot deletion is the non-optional supporting task.
