Which ports must be open between the NDB server and Controller VMs to facilitate iSCSI...

According to the Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) course, the ports 3205 and 3260 are required for iSCSI connections between the NDB server and the Controller VMs1. Port 3205 is used for the NDB iSCSI initiator service, which initiates the iSCSI sessions and sends SCSI commands to the Controller VMs1. Port 3260 is used for the iSCSI target service, which listens for incoming iSCSI requests and provides access to the storage devices on the Controller VMs1. The other options are not related to iSCSI connections. Port 22 is used for SSH, port 9440 is used for Prism Central, port 80 is used for HTTP, port 443 is used for HTTPS, port 5985 is used for WinRM HTTP, and port 5986 is used for WinRM HTTPS2. References:
