Deployment Success

Hi everyone,Has anyone here worked with Nutanix in a PCI DSS environment? I have a few questions and would love to hear from people who have been through it.- How did you separate PCI workloads from other workloads in your Nutanix cluster?- Did you use Nutanix Flow for network segmentation? Did it work well for PCI?- How did you handle logging to meet PCI DSS requirements?- Any issues with patching AOS / AHV while staying compliant?- Did your auditor (QSA) already know Nutanix, or did you have to explain the platform to them?Any tips or lessons learned are welcome. Thank you!

I have setup an instance of Move and am able to login with the default username of nutanix along with the password I created to log into the web portal of Move. However when trying the same credentials in the CLI under “move login” the creds return invalid. I have also tried the default “admin // nutanix/4u” to no avail.Am I missing something? 

Is there any docker image for Nutanix Enterprice AI? so that I can run on my linux machine? Tutorials show that there some iso file that i need to install on bare metal. But is there any container sort of thing that I can run on top linux machine? instead of installing nutanix Os itself

Hello all,I am trying to make a custom role in my Prism central. The thing I've been searching for is a user’s ability to launch a prism element from prism central. I'm not sure where it is in the operations when making the role. would anyone know where this is?

I'm trying to use foundation to install Nutanix on a R730, but it doesn't properly map to the R730 when it starts the prechecks in Phoenix. It maps to a Lenovo device. I've check the hardware and software compatibility guides, and have the correct versions. 

Hello, I'm trying to install Nutanix CE on my workstation. I keep getting “error 1155 could not create tmpvol.bin” and “Failed to create tmpvol”. I've already tried it on two different PCs and with different HDDs and SSDs. I tried it with UEFI and with legacy Bios. What could be the cause of this error? Thx.  

Trying to deploy the latest CE image (phoenix.x86_64-fnd_5.6.1_patch-aos_6.8.1_ga) on a VMware Workstation 25 machine, the VM is being deployed with the recommended hardware (8 cores, 32Gb, 3 drives (64, 200 and 500). The machine I’m deploying on is a minipc with i9 16 cores, 64Gb Ram and plenty of free NVMe space so its not a resource issue.  I see some other similar posts asking the same question but they looked to be using machines that didnt have sufficient ram to support the VM running with 32GB.  I’ve tried turning the compatibility down to workstation 17.x but that’s made no difference.I’m getting the following error, I’ve looked through the log file but there doesnt appear to be anything obvious that is causing the issue. Thanks in advanceJohn

Hello Community, we have to set up a cluster with CISCO 220C M8 Rackservers.In Nutanix Documentation I saw two methods:UCS Manager (Foundation VM) ISM Standalone (Foundation Central)But customer does not have got any of these management solutions.In Foundation VM I can see two options:Cisco (install via UCS Manager) Cisco (install without UCS Manager)Does the second option mean that I can do a foundation standalone like other servers (HPE, DELL, ...)? Thanks in advance,kid regards, Thomas
