Hello everyone, I am trying to set up a 1-node CE cluster on a server, the OS is installed but when creating the Cluster this appears

Could we deploy a nutanix robo cluster using 3-nodes ? How it would be licensed ?

We have bought 4 units Lenovo Think Agile HX630 V3 ROBO Integrated System (IS) with SW-NCI-STR-PR license. Which one is the best practice deployment scheme :Opsi 1 : applied those license into one cluster consists 4-nodesOpsi 2 : applied those license into 3-nodes cluster and a single node clusterOpsi 3 : applied those license into two clusters which consists 2-nodes per cluster 

HelloI’m testing an install on a DL360 Gen10+ server. The server has an NS-204i boot controller with 2 x  disks and there is an MR216 controller with 2 x 3.84TB disks (believe they are PM893a).I have tried the install a few times but have been wiping the server each time it fails. I’ve now got to the stage where it fails with the same error each time so I need to know why its failing."CRITICAL svm_rescue:1046 No suitable SVM boot disk found"Should I have three arrays in the server? One for AHV, one for SVM/CVM and one for storage?How/where do I run lsscsi" to check for partitions that may need to be removed?Thanks in advance for any help with this.ThanksRussell

Background I have been using Dell Apex Backup Services (AKA Druva) for the past eleven months. Last month we deployed our first Nutanix AHV Cluster. Provisioning a backup proxy VM on AHV to facilitate backups to Dell Apex Backup Services should have taken a few hours at most but instead it took nearly a week.  Provisioning Backups to Dell Apex from Nutanix AHV  What you are doing here is getting two VMDK files from a link in the Druva Management Console, building a VM on AHV, and importing/attaching those VMDKs to your new backup proxy VM. This VM will be the backup and restore target for all of your storage volumes and VMs on AHV. You will need to configure networking for the VM and install a token (You get the token from the Management Console.) on the backup proxy VM. Next you will go back to the Management Console and (provided you made it this far) configure one or more of the AHV VMs for backup. You will also have to enable the Nutanix iSCSI Data Services IP Address and open seve

I have CE 2.1 installed and running nested in ESXi 7.02 but when trying to power on VMs, I notice under the Hardware tab it shows CPU oHz and memory 0Gib. I do have VM tools installed

Hi,I’m getting this error when trying to register the Prism Central. Has anyone seen this before and is there an easy fix?CE version 2.1PC 2024.2 Thanks,

Hello,we are evaluating Nutanix for our datacenter deployment, and were thinking to install CE on one of our older DL360 Gen10 servers that we have here, just to see the interface, UI etc.However, I am completely failing to install it. Neither USB (tried Rufus with GPT and MBR, as well as unetbootin) nor mounted ISO via ILO are being recognized. I tested with Proxmox ISO, and it loaded instantly via ILO/ISO.Any recommendations on what to check or what might be causing the issue?Thanks

Hello,Newbie here. We are just moving off of VMware to Nutanix and have an issue. We use HPE OneView to manage bare metal servers that we have at various locations and is running in VMware but HPE tells us it’s not supported on the Nutanix hypervisor. We can’t be the only shop that has a OneView appliance and are moving to Nutanix from VMware. So I am reaching out to the community here in the hope that someone has been down this path and can point the best way forward to still use OneView.

Due to recurring discussions with customers, here again the question about the technical background. why can't I split Nutanix nodes in a cluster across 3 locations (these are less meters apart)? ESXi can do that, other virtualization solutions too (MS HV, PVE).I'm interested in a technical explanation, that it's not supported, I know, but why?In fact can we build stretched Clusters across Locations (No geolocations)? Thanks in advance  

Hello, anyone can help me ? i have problem on my nutanix ce, i cannot login to my prism, it just processing like in my pics.  

I was able to successfully overcome the lack of the proper igc modules for my Intel 2.5 gbps nics on my protectli homeserver (like a NUC but not).  The blog here helped, and I simply downloaded the igc module from Satoshi’s site.  But now the problem is I restart the installer with “./ce_installer && screen -r”, but it fails with the following error that makes it sound like it is upgrading versus installing for the first time.  Following is picture of the error:   Is there way to signal this is as a first time installation?  Should I wipe all the disks in my system before doing the install?  (The disks are currently part of a Ubuntu KVM install that I assumed could be be blown away by the Nutanix installation.)Thanks in advance for any tips.

Hi, is there anyway to disable ICMP timestamp request remote disclosure on nutanix? Or is there any articles that states that this is necessary for nutanix functionality.

Am trying to create dashboard portal for our Monitoring Video wall. One page showing what’s going on Nutanix without logging in to the Prism Central infrastructure dashboard. Just like VMware Aria Operation works.
