An administrator tried to provision Nutanix Database Service (NDB) from Prism Central Marketplace and is getting the error shown in the exhibit.
Which action would have prevented this issue?
Correct Answer: A
The exhibit shows an error during the provisioning of NDB from the Prism Central Marketplace, with a failure reason stating "IP not found" in the "EraService - Substrate Create" step. This indicates that the provisioning process could not assign or detect an IP address for the NDB instance, likely due to an unconfigured or missing IP address during deployment. To prevent this issue, the administrator should configure an IP address when deploying the application. This involves specifying a static IP or ensuring IP Address Management (IPAM) is properly set up to allocate an IP during the Prism Central Marketplace deployment wizard.
Other options are less directly relevant:
* B. Import the proper image in the Prism Central: This ensures the correct NDB image is available but does not address the IP assignment issue.
* C. Provide a subnet with IP Address Management: While useful, this is a broader configuration step and not the specific action needed during deployment.
* D. Register NDB using the correct IP address: Registration occurs after deployment and does not prevent the initial IP assignment failure.
Thus, the verified answer is A, as configuring the IP address during deployment directly addresses the "IP not found" error.
