Discuss Nutanix NCP-DB Exam Topic 5 Question 15

While registering an Always on Availability Group database, an administrator selects the following option:

Multiple Databases as a Group with One Time Machine

Which statement is true regarding this chosen option?

APITR-based SLAs are supported for database groups containing mixed Recovery Model.

BPITR-based SLAs are not supported for database groups containing mixed Recovery Model

CPoint in Time Clones are not supported by Database Groups.

DPITR-based SLAs are not supported for database groups.

Suggested Answer: B

Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) introduces the concept of MS SQL Server database groups, which allows multiple databases running in the same database instance to be grouped as one Time Machine entity1.This applies to both single DB Server VM setups, standalone databases, as well as to Availability Group databases1. However, it does not support Point In Time Recovery (PITR)-based Service Level Agreements (SLAs) for database groups containing mixed Recovery Models. This means that if the databases within the group have different recovery models, PITR-based SLAs cannot be applied to the group as a whole.

D seems off, I thought PITR was possible in some cases.

Veronique 11 months ago

C is definitely true, no clones for database groups.

Alishia 11 months ago

Wait, are you sure about that? I thought A could be a possibility.

Josefa 11 months ago

Totally agree, B makes the most sense here.

Audrie 11 months ago

B is correct, mixed recovery models don't support PITR.

Emerson 11 months ago

I practiced a similar question, and I think it mentioned that mixed recovery models are a problem for PITR. So, option B seems likely to me.

Lynda 12 months ago

I recall something about SLAs and recovery models, but I can't remember if they are supported or not. I might lean towards option D.

Shaun 12 months ago

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like we discussed that point-in-time clones might not work with database groups. Could it be option C?

Latrice 1 year ago

I think I remember that mixed recovery models can cause issues with PITR, so maybe option B is correct?

This seems like a tricky one, but I think the best approach is to focus on the specific details of the "Multiple Databases as a Group with One Time Machine" option. That should help me narrow down the correct answer.

I'm a little confused by the wording here. What exactly is a "PITR-based SLA"? I'll need to make sure I understand that term before I can confidently select an answer.

Dominga 1 year ago

Alright, I've got this. The correct answer is B - PITR-based SLAs are not supported for database groups containing mixed Recovery Model. I'm confident in that.

Moira 1 year ago

Okay, let me see here. The key seems to be whether PITR-based SLAs are supported for database groups with mixed recovery models. I'll need to weigh the pros and cons of each answer choice.

Sue 1 year ago

Hmm, this question seems a bit tricky. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about the implications of the "Multiple Databases as a Group with One Time Machine" setting.

I remember discussing plagiarism in class, and I'm pretty sure copying someone else's work is definitely not allowed, even for school.

Jaime 1 year ago

I think this is a tricky one. I'll need to carefully consider the wording and options to determine if breaks can be mandatory.

Noemi 2 years ago

I'm going with A. PITR-based SLAs are supported for database groups containing mixed Recovery Model. Why else would they give us that specific detail in the question? Gotta read between the lines, you know?

Lavonna 2 years ago

Haha, C is a classic trick question. Of course Point in Time Clones are not supported by Database Groups. That's like asking if a unicorn can fly a helicopter - it just doesn't make sense!

Josephine 2 years ago

D seems more logical to me. PITR-based SLAs are not supported for database groups in general, regardless of the Recovery Model. Who cares about mixed Recovery Model when the whole group thing is the issue?

Exactly, the focus is on the database group as a whole.

Yeah, it doesn't matter if the Recovery Model is mixed.

↳ replying to Josephine

I agree, PITR-based SLAs are not supported for database groups.

Nobuko 2 years ago

↳ replying to Josephine

I think D is the correct option.

Ollie 2 years ago

I think the correct answer is B. PITR-based SLAs are not supported for database groups containing mixed Recovery Model. The question specifically mentions 'Multiple Databases as a Group with One Time Machine', which implies a mixed Recovery Model scenario.

Ronny 2 years ago

↳ replying to Ollie

So, the correct answer is B. PITR-based SLAs are not supported for database groups containing mixed Recovery Model.

Colette 2 years ago

↳ replying to Ollie

I agree, the question clearly states 'Multiple Databases as a Group with One Time Machine', which means mixed Recovery Model.

Dean 2 years ago

Because the option specifically mentions that PITR-based SLAs are not supported for database groups containing mixed Recovery Model.

Kristeen 2 years ago

But why do you think that?

Dean 2 years ago

I disagree, I believe the answer is B.

Kristeen 2 years ago

I think the answer is A.
