Nutanix NCP-DB Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Nutanix Database Service (NDB) uses software profiles for database patching to keep your databases secure and optimized1. When a new database is provisioned, it will be on your current environment’s database version to maintain consistency and stop version sprawl1. Therefore, after an administrator has applied an Oracle security patch to a database server VM registered in Era, the change can be made available to other existing database instances by creating a new software profile in Era from the patched VM1.

When an administrator experiences issues with NDB and Nutanix Support requests a diagnostics bundle, it can be generated from two valid locations. The NDB GUI provides an option under the administration or support section to create and download the bundle, offering a user-friendly interface. Alternatively, the NDB CLI allows generation via specific commands (e.g., era diagnostics collect), providing a scriptable approach. Both methods are supported for troubleshooting and support purposes.

Option A (Prism Central GUI) is incorrect because diagnostics for NDB are managed within NDB interfaces, not Prism Central.

Option B (Prism Element GUI) is incorrect as Prism Element focuses on cluster management, not NDB-specific diagnostics.

Option C (NDB GUI) is correct as it supports bundle generation via the UI.

Option D (NDB CLI) is correct as it supports bundle generation via command-line tools.

Time Machine data access is a feature of Nutanix Database Service (NDB) that allows you to access a point-in-time snapshot of a database without restoring it. To use this feature, you need to create a Data Access Management (DAM) policy that defines the access mode, the source database, the destination cluster, and the storage container mapping. The storage container mapping is needed when the source database and the NDB Server containers are different, because NDB needs to know where to store the metadata and the clone of the source database. If the source database and the NDB Server containers are the same, then NDB will use the same container for both the metadata and the clone. References:
