2. Question
NDB Admin is attempting to enable high availability (HA) for NDB across three Nutanix clusters located in separate data centers. If the network latency between two clusters exceeds 25ms RTT, what impact might this have on the NDB HA setup?
Correct
NDB Control Plane High Availability (HA) will not be possible to enable if the network latency between two clusters exceeds 25ms RTT. Nutanix documentation explicitly states this limitation and recommends an RTT of less than 25ms between any two clusters for NDB HA.

Question 3 of 60
3. Question
A DBA wants to migrate an existing MSSQL Server database to NDB. How should the administrator complete this migration?
Correct
To migrate an existing MSSQL Server database to Nutanix Database Services (NDB), there are a couple of approaches. You could provision a new database server virtual machine (VM) and database, and then migrate the data. Alternatively, you could leverage Nutanix Move. But in the question they didn‘t mention the source database is virtual or physical so the solution work for both is by create a new DB Server VM and migrate databases.

Question 17 of 60
17. Question
An administrator wants to assign a VLAN to provide IP address to a database VM. What is the procedure to create the Network Profile?
Correct
To create a Network Profile in Nutanix, follow these steps: 1. Add a VLAN: Within the Prism Element interface, navigate to the “Networking“ section and add a VLAN. This VLAN will be used to segment network traffic for the database VM and provide it with an IP address. 2. Define IP range: Specify an IP address range within the added VLAN. Ensure that this range does not conflict with any other IP ranges in your network. 3. Create Network Profile: In NDB, go to the “Profiles“ section and create a new Network Profile. Select the VLAN and defined IP range, and then save the Network Profile.

Question 18 of 60
18. Question
An administrator created an NDB managed VLAN called PGSQLVLAN40. After deploying PostgreSQL HA, it was noticed that the databases were able to communicate with everything on VLAN 40 only. What can the administrator do to fix this issue?
Correct
The current issue is likely due to an incorrectly configured or missing default gateway for PGSQLVLAN40 within NDB. Because the database servers can only communicate within VLAN 40, it suggests that routing outside of this VLAN is not working as intended.

Question 19 of 60
19. Question
A Linux OS is running a PostgreSQL instance that is managed by NDB. This instance is not functioning properly after a manual OS update, so an administrator has prepared a new Linux DB server VM that is ready to host the data from the broken DB.

Question 30 of 60
30. Question
While registering an Always On Availability Group database, an administrator selects the option: Multiple Databases as a Group with One Time Machine. What is true about this selection?

Question 35 of 60
35. Question
An administrator needs to capture the database transaction logs. which Time Machine operation does NDB utilize to satisfy this requirement?
Correct
NDB uses the Log Catchup operation, which captures database transaction logs (WAL logs). This process, combined with database snapshots, allows for Point-In-Time Recovery (PITR). The logs are stored on a dedicated Log Drive, a Volume Group attached to the NDB Server VM.

1. An engineer has been asked to patch several Nutanix database server VMs. Prior to patching, what should the administrator configure?
Correct
Before patching several Nutanix database server VMs, the administrator should configure a Repository. While other options like Active Directory Access, Pulse, and an SMTP Server are important for certain configurations within NDB, they are not direct prerequisites for the patching process itself. A repository is necessary for storing and accessing the patch files.

Question 48 of 60
48. Question
An administrator needs to create and refresh clones to a point in time. Nutanix Database Service allows which two methods for satisfying this requirement? (Choose two.)
Correct
Nutanix Database Service allows two methods for creating and refreshing clones to a point in time: Snapshots: NDB leverages snapshots for Copy Data Management (CDM). These snapshots can be used to create clones and refresh them to a specific point in time. It‘s worth noting that while NDB utilizes snapshots, it is not a backup solution. A true backup solution is still recommended for long-term retention and the 3-2-1 backup strategy. Transaction Logs: As mentioned in a discussion about combining NDB with other backup solutions, NDB allows maintaining transaction logs, enabling point-in-time recovery. However, using NDB for point-in-time recovery (PITR) requires exclusive log access. If NDB is not granted exclusive log access, PITR is not supported, though snapshot-based recovery and cloning remain available. There are limitations to how long NDB can retain transaction logs, and some customers may have compliance requirements for longer retention periods.

Question 57 of 60
57. Question
An administrator manages a multi-cluster NDB instance with HA enabled. After failure, more than one API server VM is down. How should the administrator restore full functionality?
Correct
NDB HA (High Availability) can tolerate the failure of multiple non-leader API server VMs. If more than one API server VM is down, but at least one API server VM (especially the leader) remains online, the others should recover automatically. The system is designed to be auto-recoverable in this scenario. If the leader API server is down, there might be a brief timeout from the UI, but operations should resume as soon as a new leader is elected.
