Which ports must be open between the NDB server and Controller VMs to facilitate iSCSI connections?
- A. 80 and 443
- B. 22 and 9440
- C. 3205 and 3260
- D. 5985 and 5986
Answer: C
Explanation:
According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) course, the ports 3205 and 3260 are required for iSCSI connections between the NDB server and the Controller VMs1. Port 3205 is used for the NDB iSCSI initiator service, which initiates the iSCSI sessions and sends SCSI commands to the Controller VMs1. Port
3260 is used for the iSCSI target service, which listens for incoming iSCSI requests and provides access to the storage devices on the Controller VMs1. The other options are not related to iSCSI connections. Port 22 is used for SSH, port 9440 is used for Prism Central, port 80 is used for HTTP, port 443 is used for HTTPS, port
5985 is used for WinRM HTTP, and port 5986 is used for WinRM HTTPS2. References:

NEW QUESTION # 14
What is required to create an NDB Software Profile?
- A. Patch file for the installed databases
- B. Database server VM registered with NDB
- C. OS image registered with Prism Element
- D. Installer package for database software
Answer: D
Explanation:
An NDB Software Profile is a template of the OS and database engine that you can use to provision or clone database server VMs using NDB. To create a software profile, you need to upload an installer package for the database software that you want to use, such as SQL Server or Oracle. The installer package must be compatible with the OS image that you have registered with Prism Element. You do not need a database server VM registered with NDB, a patch file for the installed databases, or an OS image registered with Prism Element to create a software profile. Those are required for other tasks, such as creating a software profile version, registering a database server VM, or provisioning a database server VM.

- A. path=path_to_upgrade_bundle
- B. upgrade upload_bundle path=path_to_upgrade_bundle upload bundle
- C. path=path_to_upgrade_bundle upgrade bundle
- D. upload upgrade_bundle path=path_to_upgrade_bundle
Answer: D
Explanation:
For an NDB offline upgrade, you need to download the upgrade bundle from the Nutanix Support Portal and copy it to the NDB server. Then, you need to use the NDB CLI command upload upgrade_bundle with the path parameter to specify the location of the upgrade bundle file. This command will upload the upgrade bundle to the NDB server and verify its integrity. After uploading the upgrade bundle, you can use the upgrade command to perform the upgrade.

NEW QUESTION # 16
An administrator needs to create a custom PostgreSQL HA software profile.
Which software component manages the state of the cluster and handles failover?
- A. HAProxy
- B. keepa lived
- C. etcd
- D. Patroni
Answer: D
Explanation:
NDB supports PostgreSQL HA software profiles for provisioning PostgreSQL databases with high availability. PostgreSQL HA software profiles consist of three components: etcd, HAProxy, and Patroni.
etcd is a distributed key-value store that provides a reliable way to store configuration data across a cluster of machines. etcd is used by Patroni to store and synchronize the cluster state and configuration.
HAProxy is a load balancer that distributes incoming requests to the PostgreSQL nodes. HAProxy is used to expose a single endpoint for database connections even as the roles of the individual nodes change.
Patroni is a template for PostgreSQL high availability. Patroni is responsible for managing the state of the cluster and handling failover. Patroni uses etcd as the distributed configuration store and relies on HAProxy for load balancing.
Therefore, the software component that manages the state of the cluster and handles failover is Patroni.

NEW QUESTION # 17
What step should be taken to make the profile available to all users:
- A. Create an Access Control role with the Create Profile right and assign to all users.
- B. Update the profile and set available state to All.
- C. Update the profile and set the status to Published.
- D. Create an Access Control group with the desired users and grant it the Database Admin role.
Answer: B
Explanation:
The correct answer is D because it allows the administrator to make the profile available to all users without requiring any additional permissions or roles. A profile is a collection of settings that define how NDB manages a database server or a database. By default, a profile is only available to the user who created it and the Database Admin role. To make a profile available to all users, the administrator can update the profile and set the available state to All. This will enable all users to view and use the profile for their database operations.
The other options are not correct because they either require additional steps or do not achieve the desired outcome. Option A is not correct because creating an Access Control role with the Create Profile right and assigning it to all users will only allow them to create their own profiles, not use the existing one. Option B is not correct because creating an Access Control group with the desired users and granting it the Database Admin role will only make the profile available to those users, not all users. Option C is not correct because updating the profile and setting the status to Published will not change the availability of the profile, only the state of the profile. A published profile is a profile that has been tested and verified by the administrator and is ready for use. Adraft profile is a profile that is still under development or testing and is not ready for use.

NEW QUESTION # 18
An administrator has been tasked with restoring an Oracle database that has recently failed. The administrator must restore the database to the prior day's state.
Which two restore options could be used? (Choose two.)
- A. Snapshot
- B. Point in Time
- C. Most Recent Time Available
- D. Tail Logs Backup
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
The correct answer is B and D because they are the two restore options that can be used to restore an Oracle database to the prior day's state using Nutanix Era. A snapshot is a point-in-time copy of a database that is stored in the Era Time Machine, which is a distributed file system that collects logs and snapshots from databases. A point in time is a specific moment in time within the retention period of the SLA policy that is applied to the database. By using either of these options, the administrator can select the snapshot or the point in time that corresponds to the prior day's state and restore the database from it. The other options are not correct because they are not restore options that are available in Nutanix Era. Option A is not correct because Most Recent Time Available is not a restore option, but a clone option that creates a clone of the database from the most recent snapshot or log backup. Option C is not correct because Tail Logs Backup is not a restore option, but a backup option that captures thetransaction logs of the database that have not been backed up by the SLA policy.

NEW QUESTION # 19
An administrator is tasked with providing a Jr DBA with access to NBD with limited capabilities.
This user should only be able to:
* Provision Databases
* Provision Database Servers
* Create Ones
* Refresh Clones
* Patch Database Servers
How can the administrator complete this task?
- A. Clone the Database Admin role, and remove all but the desired privileges.
- B. Create a user for the Jr DBA, and assign only those privileges.
- C. Clone the Database Admin role, and add the desired privileges.
- D. Create a role with only those privileges, assign the role to the Jr DBA user.
Answer: D
Explanation:
The correct answer is B because it allows the administrator to create a custom role with the specific privileges that the Jr DBA user needs, and then assign that role to the user. This way, the administrator can control the access level of the Jr DBA user without affecting the existing roles or users in NDB. Option A is incorrect because it involves cloning the Database Admin role, which has more privileges than the Jr DBA user requires, and then adding more privileges, which is unnecessary and redundant. Option C is incorrect because it involves creating a user for the Jr DBA, but not assigning a role to the user, which means the user will not have any privileges in NDB. Option D is incorrect because it involves cloning the Database Admin role, which has more privileges than the Jr DBA user requires, and then removing some of the privileges, which is inefficient and risky.

NEW QUESTION # 20
What must be completed within NDB before patching a Linux OS?
- A. Configure database high availability.
- B. Update the database.
- C. Update the software profile version.
- D. Configure the repository.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Before patching a Linux OS on a database server VM provisioned using NDB, you must configure the repository for the OS updates. This can be done by creating a Repository Profile in NDB and specifying the URL, username, and password for the repository. The Repository Profile can be applied to one or more database server VMs during the provisioning process or later. By configuring the repository, you ensure that NDB can access and download the latest OS patches from a trusted source. References: Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) Course Details, Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) Certification Details, Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) YouTube Playlist, Nutanix Database Automation User Guide.

At a minimum, how much space must be available for Grid home prior to completing this task?
- A. 20 GB
- B. 5 GB
- C. 10GB
- D. 15GB
Answer: C
Explanation:
When patching an Oracle Database Server VM, it's important to ensure that there is sufficient storage space allocated for the Grid home. A minimum of 10GB space is required for this purpose to accommodate the patching process without storage constraints.References:Nutanix Database Automation documentation, particularly in the sections discussing Oracle database server VM management and patching requirements.
NEW QUESTION # 22
What are two status values that can be set within the Alerts Dashboard? (Choose two.)
- A. Auto
- B. Resolved
- C. Acknowledged
- D. Data Resiliency
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
The correct answer is B and D because these are the two status values that can be set within the Alerts Dashboard in NDB. Resolved means that the alert has been fixed and no longer requires attention.
Acknowledged means that the alert has been seen and is being worked on. Option A is incorrect because Auto is not a status value, but a mode that automatically resolves alerts based on predefined rules. Option C is incorrect because Data Resiliency is not a status value, but a feature that ensures the availability and integrity of the data in NDB.
References: The following sources provide more information about the Alerts Dashboard and its status values in NDB:

NEW QUESTION # 23
Which statement best describes what happens when a 3rd-party backup tool is chosen to manage log backups for Microsoft SQL in NDB?
- A. Third-party backups vendors can continue to backup the binary logs from the binary log location. NDB will still be able to capture the logs, considering the log catch-up begins before the logs get purged.
- B. If exclusive log access is not granted to NDB, the Point-in-Time (PIT) recovery will not be supported, but snapshot-based recovery of the databases is supported.
- C. Third-party backups vendors can continue to backup the archived logs from the database log destination.
NDB will still be able to capture the logs, considering the log catch-up begins before the logs get backed up - D. If exclusive log access is not granted to NDB, the Point-in-Time (PIT) recovery will be supported, but snapshot-based recovery of the databases is not supported.
Answer: C
Explanation:
NDB supports two modes of log backup management for Microsoft SQL databases: NDB-managed and
3rd-party managed. In the NDB-managed mode, NDB takes full control of the log backups and stores them in the Cerebro log location. In the 3rd-party managed mode, NDB allows the use of external backup tools to backup the logs from the database log destination. However, NDB still needs to capture the logs for its own operations, such as point-in-time recovery, clone refresh, and log catch-up. Therefore,NDB will periodically scan the database log destination and copy the logs to the Cerebro log location. This process requires that the log catch-up begins before the logs get backed up by the 3rd-party tool, otherwise NDB will miss some logs and the operations will fail. If the 3rd-party tool grants exclusive access to the logs, then NDB will not be able to capture them at all, and the operations will not be supported. References:

- B. Database files must exist in the Windows OS boot drive.
- C. The SQL service account should not have read privileges on the mount points.
- D. SQL Server instance must be in single-user mode.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Before registering a SQL Server Single Node Database Server VM with NDB, it is necessary that the login account provided for this task must be a member of the sysadmin role. This ensures the necessary permissions are in place for managing and administering the SQL Server instance.References:Nutanix Database Automation documentation, under SQL Server database registration and permission requirements.
NEW QUESTION # 25
Which disk is omitted from a Software Profile?
- A. System Page File
- B. SQL Installation
- C. System Database
- D. User Database
Answer: A
Explanation:
According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) course, a Software Profile is a template that defines the configuration of the database engine, such as the version, edition, features, and parameters1. It also specifies the disk layout for the database installation, such as the size, type, and mount point of each disk1. However, the System Page File disk is omitted from the Software Profile, as it is automatically created by the NDB service based on the memory size of the database server VM1. The other options are included in the Software Profile, as they are essential for the database operation and performance1. References:

Answer: A
Explanation:
The minimum frequency configurable for the NDB Log Catch-up operation is 15 minutes. This setting determines how frequently the log catch-up process runs, which is crucial for maintaining data integrity and ensuring up-to-date database states.References:Nutanix Database Automation documentation, focusing on log management and catch-up operation settings.
NEW QUESTION # 28
Which response shows two ways to upgrade an NDB Server?
- A. Out-of-Place Upgrade and In-place Upgrade
- B. One-click Upgrade and Offline Upgrade
- C. Upgrade and Manual Upgrade
- D. One-click Upgrade and In-place Upgrade Auto
Answer: B
Explanation:
There are two ways to upgrade an NDB Server: one-click upgrade and offline upgrade. One-click upgrade is the recommended method, as it automatically downloads and installs the latest NDB software version from the Nutanix portal. Offline upgrade is an alternative method, which requires you to manually download the NDB software bundle and upload it to the NDB Server VM. Both methods require you to have a valid Nutanix account and an internet connection. References:

NEW QUESTION # 29
An administrator is adding a stretched VLAN in NDB.
Which VLAN type(s) will satisfy this task?
- A. Only VLANs that are not managed in NDB
- B. Only dynamic VLANs
- C. Both static and dynamic VLANs
- D. Only static VLANs that are managed in NDB
Answer: C
Explanation:
The administrator can add a stretched VLAN in NDB using either static or dynamic VLANs. A stretched VLAN is a VLAN that spans across multiple Nutanix clusters, and allows the NDB-managed databases to communicate and migrate between different clusters. A static VLAN is a VLAN that is manually configured and assigned to the database server VMs and the databases by the administrator. A dynamic VLAN is a VLAN that is automatically configured and assigned to the database server VMs and the databases by the NDB instance, using the Nutanix Calm orchestration service. Both static and dynamic VLANs can be used to create a stretched VLAN in NDB, as long as they have the same VLAN ID and network configuration across the clusters.
The administrator cannot add a stretched VLAN in NDB using only VLANs that are not managed in NDB. A VLAN that is not managed in NDB is a VLAN that is configured and assigned to the database server VMs and the databases outside of the NDB instance, using the Nutanix Prism web console or other tools. A VLAN that is not managed in NDB cannot be used to create a stretched VLAN in NDB, as it is not recognized or controlled by the NDB instance.

NEW QUESTION # 30
Which policies define Time Machine data availability across multiple registered clusters in NDB?
- A. Recovery Plans
- B. Service Level Agreements
- C. Data Access Management
- D. Data Protection
Answer: A
Explanation:
The recovery plans policy defines the Time Machine data availability across multiple registered clusters in NDB. The recovery plans policy allows the database administrator to specify the source and target clusters, the frequency and retention of the cross-cluster snapshots, and the network and compute profiles for the recovery operations. The recovery plans policy helps to ensure the disaster recovery and business continuity of the NDB-managed databases in case of a cluster failure or outage.
The data access management policy defines the access permissions and roles for the NDB users and groups.
The data access management policy allows the database administrator to grant or revoke access to the NDB instance, the database server VMs, the databases, and the database operations. The data access management policy helps to ensure the security and compliance of the NDB-managed databases and users.
The data protection policy defines the backup and restore settings for the NDB-managed databases. The data protection policy allows the database administrator to specify the frequency, retention, and compression of the database snapshots, and the backup location and encryption for the database backups. The data protection policy helps to ensure the backup and recovery of the NDB-managed databases within the same cluster.
The service level agreements policy defines the performance and availability metrics for the NDB-managed databases. The service level agreements policy allows the database administrator to monitor and enforce the database uptime, latency, throughput, and IOPS. The service level agreements policy helps to ensure the quality of service and performance of the NDB-managed databases.

NEW QUESTION # 31
When trying to restore a database via Time Machine (TM), the option to restore data to a Point in Time is not available.
What should the administrator do to enable Point in Time Recovery?
- A. Use an SLA that supports Continuous Log retention.
- B. Take a Manual snapshot and use it for DB recovery.
- C. Use Brass SLA & update the Log catch up frequency.
- D. Update the TM schedule to perform DB Log catch up.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Point in Time Recovery (PITR) is a feature of NDB that allows restoring a database to any point in time within the retention period of the SLA. To enable PITR, the SLA must support Continuous Log retention, which means that NDB captures and stores the database logs continuously. This allows NDB to replay the logs from the last snapshot to the desired point in time during the restore process. The other options do not enable PITR, but rather affect the frequency and timing of the snapshots and log catch up operations.
References: Nutanix Support & Insights, section "NDB Time Machine Point in Time Recovery"
NEW QUESTION # 32
An administrator would like to replicate database snapshots to remote Nutanix clusters.
What should the administrator do to manage Time Machine data availability across all registered Nutanix clusters in NDB?
- A. Select the snapshots & replicate them to each Nutanix cluster.
- B. Update the cluster's Data Access & select the remote cluster.
- C. Add Data Access to each Nutanix cluster and assign a DAM policy.
- D. Update the SLA on the Time Machine & schedule the remote replication.
Answer: C
Explanation:
To replicate database snapshots to remote Nutanix clusters, the administrator needs to add Data Access to each Nutanix cluster and assign a Data Availability Management (DAM) policy. Data Access is a feature of NDB that enables cross-cluster data mobility and protection. A DAM policy defines the replication frequency, retention period, and priority of the database snapshots across the clusters. By adding Data Access to each Nutanix cluster and assigning a DAM policy, the administrator can manage the Time Machine data availability across all registered Nutanix clusters in NDB.
References: Nutanix Support & Insights, section "NDB Data Access"
NEW QUESTION # 33
What does a Time Machine frozen status indicate?
- A. The Time Machine is paused and all automatic snapshot and log catch-up activities are halted.
- B. The NDB agent is stopped on the database VM.
- C. The database is paused on the database VM.
- D. The database was de-registered fromNDB withoutremoving the associated time machine.
Answer: D
Explanation:
A Time Machine frozen status indicates that the database that was associated with the Time Machine has been de-registered from NDB, but the Time Machine itself has not been deleted. This means that the Time Machine still contains the snapshots and logs of the de-registered database, but it cannot perform any further operations on it. To resume the normal functioning of the Time Machine, the administrator can either re-register the database with NDB, or delete the Time Machine and free up the storage space.

Explanation:
The database parameters profile is used to define the initialization variables for different types of database engines and workloads, such as OLTP and DW. The database parameters profile allows the database administrator to customize the configuration settings for each database engine, such as Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. The database parameters profile can also be applied to different database operations, such as provisioning, cloning, and patching. The database parameters profile helps to optimize the performance and functionality of the databases according to the specific requirements and best practices of each database engine and workload.
The software profile version is used to define the software version and edition for each database engine, such as Oracle 19c Enterprise Edition or SQL Server 2019 Standard Edition. The software profile version is required for provisioning new databases and patching existing databases. The software profile version helps to ensure the compatibility and compliance of the databases with the supported software versions and editions.
The network profile is used to define the network configuration and security settings for the database server VMs and the databases, such as the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS, firewall rules, and SSL certificates. The network profile is required for registering new database server VMs and provisioning new databases. The network profile helps to ensure the connectivity and protection of the database server VMs and the databases within the network environment.
The compute profile is used to define the compute resources and storage policies for the database server VMs and the databases, such as the CPU, memory, disk size, disk type, compression, deduplication, and replication factor. The compute profile is required for provisioning new databases and cloning existing databases. The compute profile helps to ensure the availability and efficiency of the database server VMs and the databases within the Nutanix cluster.

NEW QUESTION # 35
How would an administrator enter the NDB command line to change the static IP address on the NDB VM?
- A. era
- B. arithmos cli
- C. era-server
- D. cerebro_cli
Answer: D
Explanation:
To change the static IP address on the NDB VM, an administrator would need to enter the NDB command line using the cerebro_cli command. The cerebro_cli command is used to access the Cerebro service, which is responsible for managing the NDB instance and its components. The cerebro_cli command can be run from the NDB VM or from any other VM that has network connectivity to the NDB VM. The cerebro_cli command has various subcommands and options to perform different tasks, such as changing the IP address, hostname, password, or certificate of the NDB VM. To change the static IP address, the administrator would need to use the cerebro_cli network update subcommand with the appropriate parameters, such as the new IP address, netmask, gateway, and DNS servers. The cerebro_cli network update subcommand also requires the administrator to provide the current password of the NDB VM for authentication. After changing the IP address, the administrator would need to restart the NDB VM for the changes to take effect. References:
