AHV Virtualization

Microsoft Windows Server DataCenter 2022 license on AHV (perpetual vs open w SA)

A customer would like to run Microsoft Windows Server DataCenter 2022 in an AHV environment and we are looking at licensing for this. We want DataCenter cause of unlimited VM’s. We have recently heard that this has changed in the past year and only retail or perpetual licensing can run on Hyper-V and you can not run on AHV or Vmware anymore. This is because it needs the host to communicate with some licensing portal. So we have to purchase Open Value with SA for running AHV which is considerably more money and have to pay on a yearly subscription. They gave us this description. Windows Server 2022 Datacenter 2-Core License + SA (3 Yr)SKU: 9EA-00643Open Value with Software Assurance (3 Years)(3) 24-Core Hosts & Unlimited VMSNutanix HypervisorFulfilled with MAK/KMS LicenseDowngrade Rights to 2019 & 2016 Can anyone confirm this?If true this is crap and Microsoft is pushing their stupid hypervisor.

Installation & Configuration

Host updates, firmware, bios, ESX, etc

Our current Nutanix infrastructure has been a bit neglected for a while, AOS, PC, NCC, etc have been kept up to date but not firmware\bios or hypervisor so I need to get these done.Current infrastructure is nothing massive, two clusters one 4 node one 3 running on NX-8035-G6 and NX-8035-G7, both are AOS 5.20.4. We have one PC running at the latest version and its sitting on a separate Management vSphere cluster along with vCenter. Hypervisor is currently ESXi 7.0 Update 2a 17867351 on all hosts, this is Standard Edition so NO DRS ☹ My plan is to upgrade the firmware and BIOS etc via the LCM on the smaller of the two clusters. I have freed up one host so there aren’t any VM’s on it apart from the CVM. I take it I can just run the LCM to do the firmware updates on that host and let it do its thing without having to do anything else, it’ll shut down the CVM maintenance mode the host and restart it?Once that is complete I want to upgrade ESX on that host. I have checked the compatibil

Don't Control the Network? No Problem. Nutanix Native DR Encryption to The Rescue

Stop the Man in the Middle Attacks.Whether you're replicating to the cloud or to a remote branch site you may not control the networking stack and to end. When you don't control the networking stack end to end or you're in an environment that simply doesn't have a firewall you can use Nutanix Native DR encryption between your Nutanix clusters. The feature is fully supported for both PD and Nutanix DR(PC) based replication.Changes will persistent after reboots of the CVMs and upon upgrades.AOS needs to be on 6.1 or higher.DR with Encryption will use 14119,14108 as additional ports that need to open bi-directional when all of the CVMS. *** Note you need to run the below steps on each cluster.To enable this featureSSH to the CVM Change the folder to bin - all the python commands need to ran from the bin directory cd bin Run the script. For PD based Replication python onwire_encryption_tool.py --enable <remote_cluster_vip> For PC/Nutanix DR Replication Enure your Prism Centrals

NX-8235N-G8-CM - Initial Configuration

Hello,We recently purchased 2 x NX-8235N-G8-CM (total of 4 nodes), which will be explicitly used as storage servers.I am having some trouble performing the initial configuration and wondering if I could get some support as I am stuck. This would be my first time setting up a Nutanix device and not sure where to begin.I did try to use the Nutanix Foundation, but no luck while trying to follow what was done here: I do have few questions regarding Foundation though.What I did:Plug in the new devices’s IPMI/data port to a dummy switch (IPMI/HOST IP will be on same subnet) Plug in my laptop with a prod IP address (i.e. 10.8.1.0.24) to switch Launch Nutanix Foundation for Windows Follow what was done in the above videos with my IP addressesNote: I am not running any DHCP nor did I set any static IP for IPMI/AHV/CVM. I read that AHV is already installed for devices sold in the US; however, not sure if the CVM is already installed though. The setup process does ask for manual entries for IPMI/
