An administrator is trying to register a database server VM with NDB.

Page files are temporary files that Windows uses to store data that does not fit in the physical memory. Page files can interfere with the registration of a database server VM with NDB, as they can cause errors or performance issues. Therefore, page files should be located in a separate drive or partition from the C:\ drive, where the NDB agent and other files are installed. System, database, and backup files do not prevent the registration of a database server VM with NDB, as long as they are not corrupted or incompatible with the NDB requirements. References:
