5 Essential Tips for Maximizing Your Experience at Nutanix .NEXT for Bloggers
Hello,I am desperate, I have 2 disks and the USB stick with the ISo on my server.If I now want to install Nutranix, I get to the disk selection, but even if I assign the disks to the respective letters, only Phoenix ISO is still mounted at the endThen the install aborts and I can go back to the disk selection.If I enter H,C, or D, the system says either I need SSD's, or I must have 2 disks, which I have.Do I need ESXI on the server, not really if I use the AHV version?
Hello FriendsHow are you?

Hi all the expert,I’m completely new to Nutanix.I tried to install the Nutanix Community Edition onto my existing rack mounted HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen9 server, so I followed this YouTube video, but it’s definitely outdated, since the links shown on the video are different to the download links available from the post from 3 years ago (created on 29th September 2020) So I have downloaded the installer ISO (version ce/2023.03.01/phoenix-ce2.0-fraser-6.5.2-stable-fnd-5.3.4-x86_64.iso) and nothing else, since the other download links are for Windows, but my purpose is to install Nutanix itself onto the host directly to replace ESXi completely, so I thought the VirtIO for Windows ISO and AHV Plugin (.msi files) are not really applicable in my case.So it get stuck at the getting files screen for a long time, and then it errored out as the screenshot at the bottom, then a root login line showed up, I can’t even get to the grey screen to select the hypervisor and configure the IP like on the Ge

Hi,I successfully deployed three nodes as VMs in my VMware nested environment without any issues. All are pinging each other.

I have an OVA which I usually deploy on VMWare. when extracting the vmdk’s from it I get two of them. I am booting using a legacy bios (because the UEFI version just hangs in “press f2 for boot manager”) from the current disk and I get the following error: Can anyone please help in resolving this issue? Thank you.
I have installed IIS on Windows servers, performed LCM framework in 2 phases for version 2.7 and after that was able to set LCM to use Dark site and to point to my IIS web server http;//MyIP/release. That allowed my to run inventory. However I can’t update any other component. I have downloaded LCM packages for AOS, foundation, FLOW, etc extracted with proper WinZip version or embedded tar. Have correct folders structure as per LCM Dark Site guide, but still LCM do not see any component for upgrade. What else I can do?And for sure for example my AOS and AHV requires update. Permissions checked, MIME types checked. CVMs and PC can talk to web server. Compatibility bundle has been extracted and copied to root folder /release. Don’t know what else might be the problem. Most likely something silly. Please help. And just FYI, direct upload to PE is not an option for me. I have many clusters in DarkSite and need to use web server as a repository.
Does Nutainix SE support deploy Microservices?P.S. I was trying 10+ times to deploy but every time get error.
Ok, let’s get straight into the topic. On one of our VMs, we had 3 local disks and 5 NICs and we intended to remove 4 of the 5 NICs, which are no longer necessary. Instead of deleting the NIC in the last row, a disk in the last row has been deleted and no, a snapshot of the VM has unfortunately not been created. Is there any possibility to recover the deleted VM disk from this specific VM with AHV/CVM command line? Thanks in advance for any help! Regards,Didi7

Hi.So this is my first installation of Nutanix, and it is kicking my behind.I have done the installation, and i want to connect to the CVM, but it doesent accept the default password.https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Nutanix-Clusters-AWS:aws-clusters-aws-using-prism-element-web-console-log-in-t.htmlI have tried root, admin nutanix and password “nutanix/4u” “Nutanix/4u”. So, what is the default password when SSH the first time to the CVM? Best RegardsJens.
Is this a possible option? I currently have a single node (MS-01) running nutanix CE and would like to add storage to expand Files. Is it possible to bring in additional hardware in nutanix CE for a storage only node?
I’m currently backing up to AWS with AWS set up as Async DR site. However, the price that AWS is charging has dramatically gone up. Are there any alternatives to AWS? I don’t need to run any VMs on the remote site, just a remote site to store my snap shots and the ability to restore easily. Thanks!

Can I also set the system so that I no longer need the 2nd USB stick?now the system needs this as a boot medium
I’m fairly new to AHV and Prism. We’ve been running Nutanix for a few years but our hosts are running ESXi. We’re setting up a new cluster with AHV and we’re planning to migrate everything there. One issue we have is that some hosts have the NVIDIA GPU card in them. In Vmware, I have affinity rules so that the VMs that use the GPU will only run on the hosts that have the GPU card. Can I do the same thing with AHV? Going through KB articles, I get mixed messages. One KB article flat out says that it’s not supported.
Hi,how do you think about migration of a single MS Exchange Server incl. its database via Move?I know that is not recommended but there are some technical facts for?In the past I’ve migrated a lot of MS SQL servers via Move without problems (migration offline while vm was powered off - virtio drivers were installed in a previous step).kind regards,Thomas
What is the recommended snapshot age in Nutanix?How many days should you keep the snapshot?
Hi Guys,Can anyone confirm that it is possible to unlicense one or two NX clusters that are in production in order to re-allocate the same licenses but smarter?Explanation: We have 2 clusters with 3 AOS Pro licenses sets (Cores + FLASH)Set1: first 3 nodes of cluster1 (2019, renewed 2022)Set2: first 3 nodes of cluster2 (2021, renewed 2024)Set3: 2 more nodes, one for each cluster (2022)We should then have set1 allocated for cluster1, set2 for cluster2 and set3 split between the 2 clusters but currently each set is used partially in cluster1 and 2 which is a mess for next licenses renewal…So my target would be to reclaim all the licenses for both clusters and then reallocate them, cleaner, through seamless licencing. Is that scenario possible without stopping the exploitation? Thanks for your advice and guidance.
I was wondering if there are any requirements with regards to installing Nutanix on a CISCO C series hardware managed by an FI switch.I have enough CPU resources, Memory and storage.Ive set the local disk on a raid1 after the error on screenshot1, I went and removed all old partion on this raid (Old ESXi Installation) and even initialized and recreated the raid virtual drive after the error on screenshot1, I went and removed all old partion on this raid (Old ESXi Installation) and even initialized and recreated the raid virtual driveSecond screenshot if after the 2nd attempt to install on a newly created Raid
Hi again.So i did my fresh installation, and at long last the password worked.Now, i can access the https://ip-of-cvm:9440, but only using “Internet Explorer”Any other browser will say something like this:“IP” usually uses encryption to protect your information. This time when Microsoft Edge tried to connect to “IP“, the site returned unusual and incorrect credentials. This can happen when a hacker tries to impersonate “IP” or a Wi-Fi login screen has disconnected. Your information is still safe because Microsoft Edge disconnected before any data was exchanged.You can't visit “IP” right now because the site has sent encrypted credentials that Microsoft Edge can't process. Network failures and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will probably work again later. And using “Internet Explorer” it seems like a lot of virual elements arent displayed correctly.
