AHV Virtualization

Hi, I’m stuck while upgrading software on LCM.AOS(6.5.3.7) and others(Foundation,NCC ..etc)upgrades were successful, but the only thing I cant see on LCM is AHV hypervisor. I unzipped several versions(higher than 20201105.2267), and I even directly uploaded on LCM, but nothing shows up at Software Firmware Update tab.  Attached is capture of Inventory How Can I solve this problem? Are these versions compatible? 

Hi,I have a 3 node nutanix cluster, when initial deployment with foundation portable due to low space in my disk, the deployment failed. When trying to redeploy we are unable to deploy. We are unable to reset the node to its factory form. Is there any way to initiate a deployment?

when I shutdown the hypervisors using sshs and run below command getting as below . why?Last login: Thu Aug 24 10:52:52 2023 from 148.179.254.56Nutanix AHV is a cluster-optimized hypervisor appliance.Alteration of the hypervisor appliance (unless advised by NutanixTechnical Support) is unsupported and may result in the hypervisor orVMs functioning incorrectly.Unsupported alterations include (but are not limited to):- Configuration changes.- Installation of third-party software not approved by Nutanix.- Installation or upgrade of software packages from non-Nutanix  sources (using yum, rpm, or similar).shutdown -h nowexit]0;root@NTNX-0b05f232-A:~[?1034h[root@NTNX-0b05f232-A ~]# shutdown -h now

I’m have nutanix ahv need connect VM Guest to external storage with windows iscsi initiator.Can I do it?

Hi, anybody help me on below query, We have a three node AHV Nutanix cluster which is running on 1 Gig TOR Switch, now we are replacing the 10 Gig TOR switch instead of 1 Gig TOR Switch. is there any impact for the cluster..?what are the steps need to take to  perform  this activity…? Thanks,Ashok.

I would like to know if there is a way to define a kind of "VM class" in a Nutanix cluster, similar to what I can do with VMware's resource pool. The objective is to limit excessive CPU and IOPS usage. My goal is to have CPU classes like 'bronze, silver, gold' and the same for storage.If you have any information, I'd like to hear from you.Thanks in advance

NIAC tool is free or do we need pay for it

Hello Everyone  I have been building Ansible Playbooks to automate Nutanix VM builds and I have the need to create and attach a volume group to some of the VM’s.  The Nutanix NCP module from Ansible Galaxy has been pretty much the only module I could locate that really handles the vm creation well.  What I have found is that depending on where you go there are conflicts in whether or not version 3 or version 2 of the API is supported.While using the API explorer on Prism Central it is shown as volume_groups and appears exposed.  When reviewing docs and next.nutanix, various API information it appears it should work but doesn’t and I can’t seem to locate any good examples.Anyone here willing to share code or direction on what they have working for volume group creation and management.  I am currently on working with 2 clusters with Prism Central deployed.  I am hopeful I can find a functional example of ansible or api calls that manage volumes and thank an

I have followed the steps from the below linksMigrating Sles 12 VM's From AHV To ESXi Export a VM from Nutanix AHV to VMware ESXiBut when turning on the VM it does not boot gets stuck at the bios screen.

I got an issue where the cluster is DOWN and I unable to access the CVM and AHV via SSH. I have requested for credential to access IPMI, but they do not found any valid credential to access IPMI, even with a default password. There 4 nodes in 1 block, which I only have an access to 1 node [CVM and AHV]. I also unable to access the Prism. Is there any possible way to UP the cluster? Besides, I unable to create case to support.

Hello everyone, can someone tell me if there are any files which can be deleted safely from this screeshot below, as I am afraid I there are any files which are related to running the system.there error is related to the /home/nutanix/data which showing 25 GB  

Does anyone else have an issue with Nutanix Element not allowing you to use numlock within the VM?Version 6.5.3.6 LTS

ICAP stands for internet content adaption protocol is an open standard being adopted to connect devices to enterprise-level virus scan engine . same way with the nutanix files is to enable communication with external servers hosting third-party anti-virus software to scan inbound data (files) in transit via Secure Proxy before sending it to the backend destination server.ICAP WORKFLOWThe ICAP service runs on each Nutanix Files file server and can interact with more than one ICAP server in parallel to support horizontal scale-out of the antivirus server. The scale-out nature of Files and one-click optimization greatly mitigate any antivirus scanning performance overhead. If the scanning affects Nutanix Files FSVM performance, o

Good day nutanix community A customer it´s going to upgrade his cluster from ESXi 7.0.3 to 7.0 U3l BUT, in the Compatibility and Interoperability Matrix there is no information about this ESXi Version so, it´s is supported this ESXi? Current AOS version 5.20.4.6 LTS and in the LCM it´s available the update  6.5.3.6 LTSModel NX-8035-G8  

I made an alert for the hard disk, if its use reaches more than 90%, it sends me an alert on the e-mail, but the problem is that some servers contain a C disk and a D disk, and when one of the disks is full, it does not send me an alert because the other disk has space, so how can I separate the disks from Some in order to warn when any disk is full of them

Good afternoon AllI have just watched a video about converting Br1 to VS1, during the process it shows that the hosts will go into maintenance mode and reboot, however the presenter said that unless the MTU is altered the VS will be created on all hosts with no reboot - I just want to confirm this is correct as this is a live production environment? Many thanksEric  

Hi can any one help me on below query , when i  Create Isolation Policy in Nutanix flow getting below issue how fix it..?can any one explain about the all policy's in Nutanix flow with example..

Subject says most of it. I have read the physical networking “best practices” guide, and I am currently running a small (3-node, NX-1175S-G7) cluster on top of Dell S4112F switches.My org is looking to add a second cluster at a second datacenter, and I was asked if the Mikrotik CRS510-8XS-2XQ-IN or Mikrotik CRS518-16XS-2XQ switches would work for the new cluster.My initial response was “no,” but I’m wondering if anybody has tried it? I would be concerned about buffer size on the switches… but how much does that matter if all of the cluster nodes are connected at the same speed, and I have a L3 boundary (router/firewall) between the VM subnet and the rest of the network (router has much better buffering than any switch would)?I do not have decision-making power here, so how can I “influence” my boss that using three-figure switches is likely to be a problem for a 5-figure+ cluster?

How to access the Mgmt port in back of the node. Is it through broswer, ssh etc TK

Hi, they can help me, I have a PD and I deleted the local snapshots and schedules, but I still see the amount in "Snapshot Exclusive Usage", it takes almost 30 hours that everything was deleted and I see no way to reduce the PD. regards,
