Explanation

In Nutanix Database Service (NDB), patching Oracle database engines requires the "Update" button to be available on the database server VM's management interface. If this button is missing, it typically indicates a configuration issue preventing NDB from performing the patching operation. The most common and critical reason is that the operating system (OS) credentials for the database server VM have not been set or registered with NDB. These credentials are necessary for NDB to authenticate and execute patching tasks on the VM, such as accessing the Oracle software and applying updates via a software profile.
