Nutanix NCP-DB-6.5 Practice Test - Questions Answers, Page 12

According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) learning documents, when provisioning a new database, there are two options available for the target12:

Provision database to an existing registered: This option allows you to provision a database to an existing registered database server.This is useful when you want to add a database to a server that is already being managed by Nutanix Era1.

Provision databases to a new container: This option allows you to provision a database to a new container.This is useful when you want to create a new isolated environment for your database1.

In the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) framework, provisioning a new Oracle database through Era requires the configuration of both a Compute and a Storage profile1. The Compute profile is used to define the resources allocated to the database, such as CPU and memory, while the Storage profile is used to specify the storage configuration for the database.These profiles are essential in ensuring that the database is provisioned with the necessary resources and storage configurations for optimal performance23.

Option A: Nutanix Era requires network prerequisites like NTP, DNS servers, gateway, and subnet mask to be available and visible.These are essential for the proper functioning of the Era instance1.

Option B: One static IP address must be available and can be changed using CLI after VM deployment.This is necessary for the Era VM to communicate with other components in the network1.

Option C: While a storage container is necessary for Nutanix infrastructure, it is not a network prerequisite specifically for deploying an Era instance.

Option D: An SMTP server and details are typically used for sending notifications, but they are not a network prerequisite for deploying an Era instance. They are more related to the operational aspect post-deployment.

The Nutanix Era API documentation is available on the Nutanix.dev API Reference page12.This documentation outlines the operations that are possible with the Era APIs2.In addition to the API reference, the NutanixDev code samples repo provides working code that implements the practices shown in the documentation1. The Era API Explorer is another resource that provides a comprehensive view of the available APIs, allowing users to interactively explore and test the APIs. However, there is no mention of a specific ''Era GitHub API Repository'' or the ''Nutanix Support Portal'' being used as a reference resource for Nutanix Era APIs in the provided resources. Therefore, the correct answers are B. Nutanix.dev API Reference and C. Era API Explorer.

According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) learning documents, theSchedulefeature of the Time Machine allows developers to automate the data refresh for their clones1.This feature eliminates the time-consuming, complex process of database clone/refresh, allowing admins to create database clones/refresh to any point in time in just a few minutes1.Please refer to the official Nutanix documentation and training materials for more detailed information2.

According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) learning documents, an administrator can change the snapshot schedule for a given database by selecting the Time Machine, then under Action, select Update and define an appropriate schedule1.This is because the Time Machine in Nutanix Era allows you to specify the number of backups or snapshots the time machine should take, the time of day it takes those snapshots, and the day of the week it takes weekly or monthly backups1.These options help you build a complete schedule of time machine capture operations1.Even if the Time Machine is in a paused state, the administrator can still update the schedule1.Cloning the Time Machine or the database is not necessary for changing the snapshot schedule1.

In Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB), when an administrator logs into Era and sees a message ''Update Available'' on the Status of the Software Profile Version, it indicates that a newer version of the software profile is available1.The administrator should manually update the software profile to the latest version12.This process ensures that the database VM is running the most recent and compatible version of the software12.

An administrator can configure a custom SSL certificate for Era through the Era User Interface (UI)1.This can be done by logging into the Nutanix Console and selecting SSL Certificates from the drop-down list inside the gear icon23.In the SSL Certificate dialog box, the administrator can click Replace Certificate, then select the Import Key and Certificate radio button23.This process ensures secure communication within the Nutanix Era environment4.

The default continuous recovery for the Gold SLA in Era Time Machine is30 days1.This means that the system keeps a continuous recovery point for the last 30 days, allowing you to restore your database to any point within this period1.
