Nutanix Updated NCP-DB Exam Questions and Answers by amalia

To register a PostgreSQL database server VM with a database on NDB, the database data and log files must be located on a separate mount point from the operating system and the binary installation. This is because NDB uses the mount point as the identifier for the database server VM and the database. If the data and log files are on the same mount point as the operating system or the binary installation, NDB will not be able to recognize them as a valid database server VM or database. Therefore, the administrator should create a separate mount point for the data and log files and specify it during the registration process. References: Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) Course Details, Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) Certification Details, Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) YouTube Playlist, [How to Allow Remote Access to PostgreSQL database], [5 Ways to Host PostgreSQL Databases], [Starting the Database Server].

According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) learning documents, Nutanix Era is a database management tool that automates and simplifies database operations, including provisioning, patching, upgrading, and more1. However, for a database to be managed by Era, it must be registered with Era1. This means that if a database is on a non-Nutanix platform, it cannot be directly upgraded using an Era workflow. It must first be migrated to a Nutanix platform and registered with Era before it can be managed and upgraded using Era1.

This is because it allows the database to be refreshed at the exact time specified (9:30 PM) with the most recent data. The other options either perform the snapshot before the desired time or do not specify when the snapshot would occur. Please note that the exact answer might depend on the specific database system and its capabilities. Always refer to the database’s documentation for the most accurate information.

According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) learning documents, to configure Era to send alert notifications to email recipients, you need to go to the Administration section, select Era Service, then go to the configure notification widget. From there, you can update the SMTP server configuration1. This allows Era to use the SMTP server to send alert notifications to the specified email recipients1.
