AHV Virtualization

Hi guys, i need imformation about max nodes per cluster for one of our implementation.I cant find any official information for max cluster size.Thanks

iam facing an issue with prixm central 2024.2 , whenever i go to the login screen it shows “iam-proxy.ntnx-base” and i cant login . any ideas ?

HI, Can somebody help me to know that if I want to implment Cisco Iromport Virtual Appliance on Nutanix AHV ,Is it possible in AHV ? The Virtual Appliance is curently available in OVF .

Hi,I have deployed a single node Nutanix CE, the deployment is done, and I am able to reach the AHV IP address but the CVM IP address is unreachable. However the CVM is reachable from the AHV when ssh. Unable to resolve the issue. 

Hi community,I'm in the middle of deploying a 3-node Nutanix AHV cluster and have a question about live migration traffic behavior with and without the Backplane LAN configured.My current setup:- 3 Nutanix AHV nodes- 10G SFP+ uplinks for VM traffic (VLAN 1 - e.g 10.10.100.0/24)- 1G RJ45 uplinks for DMZ and Corp networks on separate VLANs- Backplane LAN not yet configuredMy questions:1. Without the Backplane LAN configured, when a host is placed into maintenance mode and VMs are live migrated to other nodes,  does that migration traffic travel over the VM's own network? For example, if a VM is on my DMZ network (1G), does its live migration traffic also go over that 1G link?2. Once the Backplane LAN is configured on a dedicated VLAN (e.g. VLAN 10 - 192.168.10.0/24) on my 10G uplinks, will ALL live migration traffic route over the backplane regardless of which network the VM is connected to?3. Is there any official docu

Hi Expert, I plan to relocate my Nutanix Box to another rack. can someone help me or guide me the proper procedure for this activity, below the details Hypervisor: ESXi 5.5 Nutanix Box: 4box Node: 16 node How can I perform the proper shutdown. I a bit confuse with some article from google

The customer I currently support has a pair of Nutanix clusters running on the Dell PowerEdge XC630-10 harward platform. They have really enjoyed the performance and overall gain (simplicity of the design, reduction in administration/alerts, etc.) since moving to the Nutanix platform. The topic of a server refresh has arisen, and we're beginning to collect all the different metrics we will need to analyze to support this effort. After that's done, though, the planning and designing will begin. In the past, I've used the Nutanix Sizer. That since seems to be locked away behind a Nutanix/Partner Login page now? Does this still exist? Is there one that supports the Dell hardware platform line? Any other workload sizing resources for the theoretical migration planning would be much appreciated. Thanks, in advance!

Hello. I'm trying to understand the sizer. How to calculate Applied Weight? CPU Type : 2 x Intel Xeon Processor 6252 (2.1 GHz, 24 cores) (48 Cores) Actual Core Capacity : 336.00 Applied Weight : 74.39 Adjustment Due To Memory Issues : 0.00 Adjustment Due To NUMA Considerations : 0.00 Effective RAW Capacity : 410.39 (Actual Core Capacity + Applied Weight) https://sizer.nutanix.com/#/help/articles/155 => Page does not open

Hello everyone What is important to be aware of migrating Windows VM from ESXi to AHV?Is the version of AOS important? Anything else? Please help me.

Hi,I’m looking to deploy the L4 load balancers for domain controller services LDAP(S), NTP, & DNS, you know they type of thing that gets addresses programmed into devices/applications.I can create a LB session for an IP and have it listen on multiple ports 53,123,636 but when I gets round to selecting the destination VM Nic's I can only specify a single port for the destination.  Is there any way to balance multiple services from a set of hosts with a single VIP, or will I need to create an LB session and separate VIP for each of the services?Also some of the documentation i read said that It’s possible to use VM Categories to select the destination VM’s, but I don’t seem to have that option, which version do I need to be running to get that?

Can I please get the Community Roll. I am trying to get going on my Nutanix cluster and I get this error.   

Hi All , As you know that to build a SQL cluster on vmware vsphere 5.5 I need to create RDM disk for both cluster's nodes with physical compitilty , and this will eliminate the vsphere from running vmotion (need to shutdown the host to migrate )since it is not supported. My question is : does nutanix support create a SQL cluster ? and how they will replace the RDM (the physical LUN)? And for licensing :Does nutanix base license support building critical application clusters for free? Regards,

Does Nutainix SE support deploy Microservices?P.S. I was trying 10+ times to deploy but every time get error.

I recently deployed Nutanix , but when I am opening web browser it is showing and I belive that it might be the certificate issue. I issued a commad to check the certificate in CVM and it is showing below and my system team already passed the date and time, what might be the other issue. Cluster is showing UP and healthy.  upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. retried and the latest reset reason: connection failure, transport failure reason: TLS error: 268435581:SSL routines:OPENSSL_internal:CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED

We’re running 2 clusters which are pretty much configured the same running ESxi 7.02 AOS 5.20.4 LTS both running on nutanix hardware.  One cluster is totally fine no issues but the other you cannot create a virtual disk greater than 2Tb! The issue only came to light when we had to move a VM off to another non-nutanix host for a few days then when we went to vmotion it back it errored complaining about the disk being greater than 2Tb, it is its nearly 6Tb as its a fortinet analyzer. I’m pretty sure when the VM was sat on the nutanix cluster its disk was greater than 2Tb and it was thin provisioned with a capacity of 7Tb when it was created!  So you can’t move anything to any of the datastores that are greater than 2Tb and you also can’t create a new disk greater than 2TB.  Also if you take a look at the datastores details it says maximum VM disk size 2TB, on the other clusters datastore it says 62Tb. It's getting to be a bit of a pain as the fortinet analyzer is sitting

Hello All,I am new to Nutanix and AHV; however, I have a large amount of experience with Hyper-v and SCVMM. One of the things I am trying to do is automate the creation of a vm’s. My end goal is to take an “image” base drive I have uploaded to images containing an install of my windows OS.Deploy a new vm with that image, have a static IP assigned to the new vm automatically from a pool of IP’s, join my domain, and run a few powershell scripts in the VM. I would have done this all with an IP pool and a template in SCVMM and as much as I have read about templates in AHV I am not seeing anything like it. Am I missing something here?Do we have a resource on how to configure something like this?

Ok, let’s get straight into the topic. On one of our VMs, we had 3 local disks and 5 NICs and we intended to remove 4 of the 5 NICs, which are no longer necessary. Instead of deleting the NIC in the last row, a disk in the last row has been deleted and no, a snapshot of the VM has unfortunately not been created. Is there any possibility to recover the deleted VM disk from this specific VM with AHV/CVM command line? Thanks in advance for any help! Regards,Didi7

When creating a vm there is a scripting section that has the option to select a file from an ADSF Path.  How can I put files to an ADSF location?

Next Community, Nutanix has developed Best Practices for designing and deploying Cisco Unified Communications on Nutanix. I wanted to share those resources with you here in the community and use this space to talk about the subject. Best Practices Guide with example deployments:http://go.nutanix.com/bpg-cisco-unified-communications.html Personal blog posts:http://bbbburns.com/blog/2014/12/nutanix-and-uc-part-1-introduction-and-overview/http://bbbburns.com/blog/2015/01/nutanix-and-uc-part-2-cisco-virtualization-requirements/

I have 4 x dell m540 blade servers, running in a VRTX chassis, and would like to install nutanix, I have tried the latest edition and it bombs out with fatal errors before I even get to the installer, does anyone have the legacy isos so I can try this or any ideas why ?, I have even disabled the shared storage and it still bombs out 

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?

Hey Everyone. So, I am relatively new to the whole Nutanix game. Im curious what everyone is suggestion is for CVM allocation. We had nutanix do our original provisioning, but the provisions the installer set it up with seem a bit excessive. 10 Cores and 32gb ram per CVM, Any thoughts?

Is anyone running Microsoft Exchange on their Nutanix cluster? If so, approximately how many mailbox databases (EDBs) are you running and what is the approximate size of each? Also, overall feedback/thoughts of the performance of your Exchange environment on the Nutanix cluster?

Hi,I cannot expand the cluster when Pre expand-cluster tests were failed and error message was "Failure in pre expand-clustrer tests.Errors:Failed to get vlan tag of node:XXXXX" on Prism Element.CVM and HyperVisor Network use Tagged VLAN and PortChannel in L2 switch ports.Ping to HyperVisor’sManagement IP from other NW segment is OK.Of course, CVM and HyperVisor’sManagement IP are same segment.Should  I do any other? As below, each of versions.・DELL XC640・AOS：5.10.6・ESXi：6.7 Update 2 (Build 13006603)

We are trying out nutanix and in the installer, it asks me for CVM..When i chose the 7mm that clearly is SSD it says its HDD and will not install on it..Is there any workaround for installing cvm on this disk?/pålt7mm - Bay 0 LEN MTFDDAK240TDS-1AW1ZA  Normal 240 GB SATA SSD 2.5"”
