Nutanix NCP-DB Exam Dumps - Actual Questions Answers

Before updating Oracle Database software, you need to download the Patch Set Update (PSU) from Oracle support. A PSU is a collection of critical and security patches for Oracle products. You need to have a valid Oracle account and access to the My Oracle Support portal to download the PSU. You also need to check the compatibility and prerequisites of the PSU before applying it to your Oracle Database software. NDB uses out-of-place patching for Oracle, which means you need to create a new software profile version with the patched Oracle software and use it to update your existing databases. References:

The command era-server > era server set ip=ip_address gateway=gateway_address netmask=ip_netmask nameserver=ns1 ntp_server=ntp1 is used to assign a static IP address to the NDB VM via the era-server CLI. This command requires core network parameters (ip, gateway, and netmask) to configure the VM’s network interface correctly. However, optional parameters like nameserver (DNS server) and ntp_server (Network Time Protocol server) can be omitted if the administrator relies on default or externally configured DNS and NTP settings (e.g., via DHCP or another management system). These optional parameters enhance functionality but are not mandatory for the basic static IP configuration.

Option A (ntp_server) is correct as it is optional and can be configured separately or omitted if NTP is managed externally.

Option B (netmask) is incorrect because the netmask is a required parameter to define the subnet for the IP address.

Option C (gateway) is incorrect because the gateway is a required parameter to specify the network route.

Option D (nameserver) is correct as it is optional and can be omitted if DNS is handled outside NDB.

Note: The typos in the question (gatevay_address, ip_J2etmas^c, narnesetver, ntpl) are assumed to be gateway_address, ip_netmask, nameserver, and ntp1 based on context.

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.
