Hi,We have two locations and want to install Two-nodes-Cluster in the production location and One-node-cluster in the Disaster Location and to replicate these clusters each other. My question is:Can we connect two-nodes directly with 10 Gbit DAC SFP+ cables each others? So, Is physical switch necessary to install two-nodes-cluster? We want to use Direct Connection (via DAC Cables) for RF2 data replication between two-nodes and 2 x 1/10 Gbit Base-T port will be using for VMs connection and replication VMs to one-node-cluster in the DR site. Is this scenario possible? What about fail-back scenario? (back from DR to Production)Notes:We have 3 x NX1175S G8 Nodes We want to use AHV or ESXiThanks.
Hi there guys!We’ve recently upgraded our cluster from 5.15.3 to 5.15.6 because of a bug with Acropolis Sevice. After the upgrade, we are running into a weird issue with our Citrix Environment.Right now we are using CVAD 7.15 CU2 and AOS 5.15.6 with Windows 7 MCS pool of 1000 VMs with UPMWhen a user disconnects from a session (hitting disconnect or the red X sqare button) director shows the session Active instead of Disconnected and the curious thing is that it reports to be a Console sessionAfter playing around upgrading a test platform to 1912 CU3 and VirtIO drivers to the latest version, we’ve found the same issue. Also repeated the tests with Nutanix CE version 20190916 with the same results.At this point we ran out of ideas an decided to create an ESX cluster in lab, and guess what? it works fine. Disconnected sessions are showing up as they should.We suspect that can be related to AHV because of the test. Also we have a case opened with Nutanix and afterwards we will open a Citri
My hardware - NX-6035-G4 running 5.20.3.5 LTS and is no longer under support. It is one of 8 in the cluster. We use this as a backup target for our two other production clusters using protection domainsI was attempting to replace a satadom because I got this error satadom has worn out - PE cycles above 4500 or PE cycles above 3000 and daily PE cycles above 15.I followed the instructions on this page to get things started, but after 8 hours of trying to clone the satadom disk the process timed out - put the node in maintenance mode and detached it from the Metadata Store. I took the node out of maintenance mode to add it back to the Metadata Store, but the option has not popped up in PE. Here is the output from an NCLI host list.

Hello Ma’am and Sir,Does anybody tried installing or imaging a single node using phoenix? please i need some help/procedure for this as I can’t access the links given in this page it only shows “Not Found or Fordbidden”: Appendix: Imaging A Node (Phoenix) | Nutanix Community…...specifically in “Installing the Controller VM and Hypervisor by using Phoenix” and “Imaging Bare Metal Nodes”…..I created bootable phoenix using USB then i am now in the root@phoenix but I bet it requires some commands to push but have no idea on the commands and theres no search result in the internet regarding that
Dear All,We are using Frame with an on-pre AHV cluster. We have set up an account with domain-joined non-persistent instances. The sandbox is located in the same AD OU as the instances. Hence, it has the same GPOs applying. Our GPOs are not WMI filtered and do have standard security applied. GPOs are all enabled.The issue that we are seeing with GPO is the following. The settings in the GPO that is scoped to the computer objects are confirmed to be applying to the sandbox. also, on the sandbox, the settings seem to take effect as expected, e.g., when configured accordingly, News and Interests vanishes from the taskbar after a reboot.However, when I publish the sandbox and log on to one of the generated instances, the experience is different. I can still see that the registry setting that is corresponding to a specific GPO setting is present. GPRESULT also shows that the GPO is applying. However, the effect in the GUI is just not there. That is, News and Interests is still present on th
Hi everyone!I have an existing Veeam Backup Server running version 9.5 and I wonder if I can use it in the Foundation Mine with Veeam installer or do I have to upgrade to 10? (As far as I know there’s no documentation on Mine compatibility with Veeam Backup & Replication versions).Also, I have a perpetual socket licence for the Veeam Server I use actually. Will they work?Thank you in advance,

Whe doing an AHV update I noticed that when going into or out of Maintenance mode some of the VMs show as VM and some have their actual name - why is this?
Hi. I’m trying to use Nutanix collector 4.0 to collect Hyper-V sizing information, however the following error message is displayed during the scanning phase:“Bad http response returned from the server. Code: 500. Content”I tried to use it with Remote option and locally on a cluster member and the same happens.Running the precheck script it shows these failures on the picture: The user logged in is a Domain Admin and local admin, however the script returns a failure about the user rights. Does anyone know how can I enable the “Basic auth” stated on the script output?I also tried Collector version 3.5.1 with no success.Any tips?
There is an option to have the Storage widget turn yellow when the cluster reached a warning threshold of resilient capacity. This feature does not appear to trigger an alert in Prism Elements. Are there any options to make this trigger an alert or are there options to alert on the resilient capacity of the cluster? Managing the capacity based on anything else creates more management overhead when each cluster has to have the capacity calculated individually and the thresholds set/reset with cluster changes. Since this widget is already doing the calculation it seems redundant to have to edit the storage pool alerts on every cluster. This is an example of the Storage Widget with the warning triggered. But the storage pool has not triggered an alert based on these numbers because it doesn’t take into consideration the resilient capacity.
Hello guys,We are considering upgrading the existing Nutanix cluster environment to meet high reliability protection for critical applications.Currently we have a site A as the production cluster and site B as the disaster recovery cluster. The sites on both sides use Leap to provide a data protection strategy with an RPO 15 Mins.All sites' virtualization systems are using AHV.Now we plan to build a new site C, and do real-time synchronous data transmission with site A.Site A and Site C will be deployed in the same building.At the same time, it is hoped to ensure that the failure of either site A or site C will not cause data loss or service interruption.We hope to use Nutanix's data synchronization solution.However, we found that once the VM uses Leap to configure the real-time synchronization policy, the original Leap asynchronous transmission policy cannot be applied.It appears that only one Leap protection policy can be applied to the same VM.Therefore, based on the above situation
Can someone provide a brief explanation of Nutanix local key manager and how it handles the following in ‘???’:key access: access to the management console is restricted to authorized individuals abased on job function. changing / updating keys: encryption keys are updated from the management console, software encryption (rekey button) if necessary. revoking keys: ??? (when does revoking keys happen?) recovery keys: ??? (how do you recover if you have the key backup?) archiving keys: keys are archived (backed up) from the management console, managed keys where you download the key backup by setting up a recovery password to decrypt the backup file. activity logs: ??? (is there activity logs for keys? If yes, where is this stored and how long is the retention before the activity is overwritten?)BTW: I have this link already Native Local Key Manager (nutanix.com) but is does not have any details of the Thanks in advance.
