Nutanix CE よろず相談所が長くなってきた&Nutanix CE 2.0 がリリースされたいい機会なので、こちらに移行したいと思います。
Hi Team,What if some random people run a feature like Nutanix Object without having a proper license for it, what they just have is only for AOS license.1. will they successfully use it in the cluster? 2.will that Object feature be affected when the active AOS license expires?3.Nutanix license is perpetual right? so when it expires all features are still working except support from TAC but what about the features that runs illegally, will they be affected once active license that doesnt supports the feature they enabled expires? Thank you so much for clarification.
Hi,We’ll be shortly moving to Horizon Instant Clones running on our ESXi v7 U3c Nutanix cluster. I’ve been reading about the Parent VMs which Instant Clones put on each host and I’m a little concerned about how LCM will work in the future for performing tasks where it takes hosts in and out of maintenance mode in turn.There’s an old thread here that suggests doing only one host at a time and manually getting it to remove the parent VMs but I was wondering if that was still necessary.I did ask Support and they said “I have reviewed some information and as far I understand this shouldn’t be an issue on newer Horizon releases” but they sounded not entirely certain and gave a caveat about whatever VMware might say...VMware documentation refers to newer Horizon versions being generally OK but that host updating via VUM is an issue and even suggests disabling Parent VMs entirely if that is used. Is LCM similarly affected? What are other Instant Clone Nutanix admins doing nowadays?Thanks fo
I just created a new cluster but there is no default virtual switch created (vs0).Is this something expected ? Ventura
Hi AllHavoc struck this morning when I tried to move my AHV cluster from old switch stack to new switch stack - the hosts, I think went into panic mode and started to restart various VMs.The background to this is: I have 2 x Dell X4012 core switches and 2 x Dell N3024 ToR switches, currently due to moving VMware environment to Nutanix only 1 x X4012 is connected to NIC 1 on each of the 3 hosts. From the X4012 there is a cross connect into the old VMware network Core blade switches (Dell 8024 x 2) which are connected to the old ToR N3048 switch stack, these are then connected to the router for VPLS and DMZ. So to move the connectivity, I thought I could add the second NICs of the hosts to the second X4012 and disconect the crossconnect and the first NICs thus using the newer switches, albeit on the opposite NICs. I planned to reconfigure and update the first X4012 and add back into the stack with a LAG to the N3024 stack and no crossconnect. I moved the NIC connections and lost all

When we set out to develop the Nutanix Certified Master (NCM) exam for Multicloud Infrastructure the goal was to create an exam that mimicked real world situations and tested your skills in performing the actions needed to resolve them. The team worked for months with a group of subject matter experts (SMEs) to make sure the skills being tested were valid, and designing scenarios that were representative and realistic. And after dozens of beta tests, the reviews are in! If you want to learn more about what they’re all talking about, check out this video with exam designer Joshua Andrews. You can also see some examples of the exam scenarios in our Monday Masterclass blog series. And if you’re ready to get started on your personal journey to NCM, there’s a special 50% discount on the related Advanced Administration and Performance Management course going on now!

Hi All,We currently have an 1 Block, 3-node cluster (NX-1065-G5) with approximately 50 VMs on it. It is approaching end of life, and we are replacing it with another 1 Block, 3-node unit (NX-1065N-G8). At end-state all of the VMs will be on the new hardware, and the old hardware will be powered down.Would we be better to…Build the new unit as a brand new cluster, and move all the VMs to it using Nutanix Move. Expand the existing cluster by adding the new hardware to it, and then remove the old hardware from the cluster. Has anyone gone through either of these processes?Thank you for your suggestions.Marlon M.

Using LCM to update Foundation to version 5.4 I am finding that it consistently fails on Lenovo hardware.I’ve tried two clusters so far that were both at AOS version 6.5.2 but both LCM updates of Foundation to version 5.4 failed.Ominously there is mention in the Field Installation Giude for Foundation 5.4 (link below) that “Software Update” should not be used to update Foundation on Lenovo platforms, and advises to use the command line instead.It worked when using the command line, so my question is: what’s going wrong when LCM attempts this?https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Field-Installation-Guide-v5_4:fie-upgrade-foundation-vm-c.htmlWhat tends to happen is that most nodes except 1 or 2 are successfully updated, with the remaining node neeing to be done by hand from the command line.
I want to create a configuration in Sizer that takes a snapshot once a day.However, an error message is displayed on Sizer and configuration is not possible."Cluster: 'Cluster-1' nodes with SSD capacity less than 7.68TB are not allowed when configuring Hybrid nodes with RPO of 6 hour and node capacity ranging from >96TB upto 136TB. For more info, refer to Nutanix Maximum Configurations & Snapshot Frequency Field Requirements"Sizer's workload only has Daily Snapshots set."Hourly Snapshot Retained" is unchecked.However, for some reason, the condition check for 6 hours RPO is caught, and the hardware cannot be configured.What should I do to remove this error?
I turned on a trial of calm in my cluster, but never really did anything with it. I’ve searched and searched but I’ve been unsuccessful in finding how to disable it. Can someone point me in the right direction?Thanks!
We are running asynchronous Protection Domains and also employee Veeam backups of VMs. If we failover to the secondary site and then failback to the primary site, Veeam no longer recognizes the VMs in previously created backup jobs. We have to delete all the old backup jobs and set them up again. This is with ESXi hosts. Is that normal?
Hello,Does "Host Boot Disk Repair" require IPMI and cvm/host to communicate with each other?Is IPMI cable connection required?Does it fail if there is no communication? Thank you.
