Nutanix NCP-DB Online Access

The Global Service Level Agreement (SLA) feature of Era allows an administrator to create Time Machine policies in a Multi-Cluster configuration1. This feature provides a unified way to manage and enforce backup and replication policies across multiple clusters, ensuring consistent data protection and recovery across the entire environment1.

According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) course, the Pre-Post Commands section allows the administrator to specify custom scripts that can be executed before or after the clone operation1. The masking script can be created on any of the VMs that have access to the source database, such as the source DB VM, the Dev VM, or the SW Profile VM2. The script should contain the commands to mask the sensitive data in the Finance database, such as replacing the real values with dummy values or encrypting the data2. The administrator can then create the clone from the Time Machine and define the post-clone option with the full path and name of the masking script1. This will ensure that the script is executed after the clone is created, and the data is masked before it is available for the development team1. The other options are not correct, as they either use the wrong field (pre-clone instead of post-clone), or do not specify where to create or store the masking script. References:

For enabling Multi-Cluster management on an Era installation, the hypervisor version must be supported and port 9440 must be open between the Era VM and clusters. This ensures that the Era VM can communicate with the clusters for management tasks1.
