Upgrade CE 2.1 to AOS 6.10

Hi,I upgraded AOS 6.8.1 to 6.10 but now I have a version incompatible with AHV and it is impossible via LCM to upgrade AHV. In the related KB 15185 there is a workaround but it does not work in my nested environment. Does anyone have a suggestion?Thanks

Install Nutanix CE on DL380 Gen10

Hello,we are evaluating Nutanix for our datacenter deployment, and were thinking to install CE on one of our older DL360 Gen10 servers that we have here, just to see the interface, UI etc.However, I am completely failing to install it. Neither USB (tried Rufus with GPT and MBR, as well as unetbootin) nor mounted ISO via ILO are being recognized. I tested with Proxmox ISO, and it loaded instantly via ILO/ISO.Any recommendations on what to check or what might be causing the issue?Thanks

Anyone Running HPE Oneview? Looking for advice

Hello,Newbie here. We are just moving off of VMware to Nutanix and have an issue. We use HPE OneView to manage bare metal servers that we have at various locations and is running in VMware but HPE tells us it’s not supported on the Nutanix hypervisor. We can’t be the only shop that has a OneView appliance and are moving to Nutanix from VMware. So I am reaching out to the community here in the hope that someone has been down this path and can point the best way forward to still use OneView.

Passed NCA-6.5 Exam, Now What?

I’m excited to share that I passed the NCA-6.5 exam! 🎉 Now that I’ve achieved this milestone, I’m looking for ways to further my skills and knowledge in this area.Here are some resources I’m considering for my next steps: Advanced Certifications: Exploring advanced courses related to network security or cloud architecture can enhance my expertise. Online Courses: Platforms like Coursera and Udemy offer specialized courses that dive deeper into topics covered in the NCA-6.5. Community Forums: Joining forums such as LinkedIn groups or TechExams can help me connect with other professionals and stay updated on industry trends. Hands-On Practice: Lab environments like Cisco’s Packet Tracer or GNS3 will help me apply what I’ve learned in real-world scenarios. Passexam4sure Helped me a lot I’d love to hear any additional suggestions or resources you might recommend!
