An administrator wants to manage an additional database on an existing database server VM.
What field should the administrator look in for this new database?
When an administrator wants to manage an additional database on an existing database server VM in NDB, the first step is to identify if the database is already recognized by NDB. The 'Unregistered Databases' field or section within the NDB interface lists databases that are present on a registered database server VM but have not yet been registered with NDB. This allows the administrator to discover and register the new database, enabling full management capabilities (e.g., provisioning, cloning, or patching). Once registered, the database will move to the 'Registered Databases' section.
Option A (Unregistered Databases) is correct as it is the initial field to check for new, unmanaged databases on the VM.
Option B (Database Server VM) is incorrect because this refers to the VM itself, not the databases it hosts.
Option C (Registered Databases) is incorrect because this lists only databases already managed by NDB, not new ones.
Option D (Database Name in NDB) is incorrect as it is not a specific field but a general Reference:, lacking a defined location.
The administrator should use the Unregistered Databases section to proceed with registration.
