Mounting an iSCSI LUN sounds familiar, but I can't recall if that's the most efficient method for this scenario.

I practiced a similar question where migrating to a new database was suggested, but that seems like a lot of work for just scaling up.

I think adding new vDisks could be a straightforward way to scale, but I wonder if it would be as efficient as resizing.

I remember something about leveraging NDB's scaling features, but I'm not sure if resizing existing vDisks is the best option.

I'm a bit confused by the question. Does the administrator have the option to use iSCSI LUNs, or is that not a supported configuration? I'll need to research Nutanix NDB a bit more to make sure I understand the best approach.

Creating a new, larger database and migrating the data seems like the most reliable way to increase the size, but it could be a lot of work. I'll need to weigh the pros and cons of each option.

Extending the size by adding new vDisks sounds like a good approach to me. That way, I can scale the storage without having to migrate the entire database.

I'm pretty sure the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM) is the right answer here. It's a well-known framework for managing the e-discovery process, which includes legal holds.

I'm tempted by Option D, but mounting an iSCSI LUN just sounds like a lot of extra steps. Why not keep it simple with NDB?
