Nutanix Certification

Howdy,Do you have any details on when the next NCM-MCI exam will be available? It is still on 6.5. I have the NCP and would like to go for the NCM, but since it was released in 2022 I figured a new version should be out soon?Thanks

AHV Virtualization

Procédure officielle Nutanix de réinstallation d’une CVM sur VMware

Je sollicite votre aide concernant un problème sur mon cluster Nutanix de 7 nœuds. Une des CVM a crashé et malgré plusieurs tentatives de récupération, je n’ai pas pu la restaurer. Est-il possible de réinstaller une nouvelle CVM sur ce nœud sans impacter le fonctionnement du cluster ?

CRITICAL message by memory_model_manager.py - KB-18070

Hi everyone,I have run into the issue described in the KB-18070, Case 2: CRITICAL memory_model_manager.py:83 X == 1 failed, after the power outage. Description and symptoms fits and I confirmed it in the logs. Problem is, that solution is to upgrade to next version and contact support for the recovery of the impacted cluster. Upgrade is not possible and its CE so support is also not an option. I was wondering if someone have similar issue or might have a clue hwo to move forward, as I would like to avoid nuking the whole cluster. Any advice or help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Nutanix Disaster Recovery

Clarification on Replicating Nutanix AHV VMs to Azure for DR

Hi,I need some clarification regarding the following scenario:We have an on-premises infrastructure running on Nutanix with AHV as the hypervisor. Our goal is to replicate these virtual machines to Microsoft Azure to establish a disaster recovery (DR) setup.Is Nutanix AHV fully supported for replication to Azure in the same way that VMware or Hyper-V environments are supported by Azure Site Recovery (ASR)?Could you please help clarify the possible options, associated challenges, and the feasibility of replicating Nutanix AHV workloads to Azure—particularly through ASR or any alternative solutions? I’m looking for clear insights and confirmation on the best approach for this use case.Thank you.

LCM Not Reflecting Updated HPE Firmware Version 2025.05.00.00 on DX380 Gen11

Hi all, I recently performed a fresh installation of a Nutanix cluster using three nodes, all based on the HPE ProLiant DX380 Gen11 12LFF platform.As part of the pre-deployment steps, prior to imaging the nodes using Foundation VM (foundation version was 5.7.1), I upgraded the firmware on all three servers to Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) version 2025.05.00.00. This firmware version was explicitly referenced in the Nutanix installation prerequisites and compatibility documentation for this hardware generation.The SPP upgrade was completed successfully via iLO on all nodes, and I validated the firmware version through the iLO web interface post-upgrade.Following the firmware upgrade, I proceeded with the node imaging using Foundation and successfully deployed the cluster without any issues. Once the cluster was operational, I launched LCM > Inventory and ran Perform Inventory to validate component versions.However, LCM still reports the installed SPP version across all hosts as 202

How to Replace ToR Switches Without Downtime?

We have a 6-node Nutanix cluster on VMware ESXi spread across two racks. Each rack has a ToR switch, and both ToRs are in an IRF stack. All nodes are dual-uplinked (one NIC to each ToR).Core switch handles L3 routing, and VLANs are trunked to the IRF stack.We're planning to replace both ToR switches with new IRF switches — without downtime.Can the community please guide on: Best practices for live switch replacement How to ensure CVM and ESXi connectivity during the change Key health checks from Prism Any Nutanix KB or doc on this

Installation & Configuration

Dell PowerEdge R640 bare metal bootup process failed

HI Team,I am considering Nutanix for my use-case. I have Dell PowerEdge R640 bare metal chassis with 2 NIC's BRCM 2P 1G BT + 2P 10G BT rNDC & Mellanox Network Adapter. I am trying to deploy Nutanix Community Edition but facing some issues. I do have 2 physical disks but looks like I need 3 physical disks to deploy Nutanix CE. (https://next.nutanix.com/installation-configuration-23/3-drives-needed-for-nutanix-installation-43436) 1) Does NIC mentioned above is good enough to proceed with CE deployment or does the chassis requires Intel NICs only? During bootup I am seeing below issue, Please let me know what is the root cause of this and how to resolve it? Though bootup process failed, I can still able to see Hypervisor selection along with Disks selection, Is that expected? I do have 2 HDDs attached to bare metal, But why do I see only 1 disk during Hypervisor selection? Do I really require 3 physical disks or does partition is allowed to achieve my agenda? What kinds of disks ar
