Planning a customer migration of 15 physical servers and looking for supported options of P2V.I see links to the Sureline 3rd party tool. Is that the only direction or anything native from Nutanix yet.

Todd,
We dont have a native tool. We've been working with Sureline to enable their product against our API's, and initial run throughs have been very positive.
Being from PSO myself, we will license sureline as part of migration engagements, when its necessary, so customers dont have to incure a license cost.
There are "other" less integrated ways to get it done, such as converting a physical with VMW converter, and importing the VMDK file into AHV.

Looking into Sureline tools as an option, thanks.
For the Vmware converter method, would we need an ESX host on a node to accept that converter VMDK or will it import straight into AHV?

You can convert it locally and upload it, or if the environment HAD an ESXi server, you can mount the Nutanix whitelist as NFS, and run it through there, and just point converter at the ESX host, and dump the files on the remote nutanix NFS
From yhere, you can just "clone from ADFS image" when making a disk, and target the serverNameHere-flat.vmdk
