I’m new to Nutanix.  I’m trying to evict a Vmware ESX node from a cluster to rebuild it with AOS and join to our AHV cluster.  Is there a good document on how to evict the node?I found this document that essentially saysSelect the Infrastructure application from Application Switcher Function, and navigate to Hardware > Hosts . The system displays the List tab by default with all the hosts across registered clusters. Select the target host checkbox, and choose Remove Host from the Actions dropdown menu.Prism pc.2023.4 - Prerequisites for Removing a Node through Prism Central (nutanix.com)The options I have in the drop down are manage Categories and Run Playbook.  There is no remove host option.

I have a Windows Server 2022 machine on which I installed the Nutanix guest agent version 4.0 via an executable, as it is a production server and cannot be shut down to add a CD-ROM. However, after installing the Nutanix agent, I tested communication with the CVM and received the result "communication_link_active: false".I installed the agent on another VM with the same specifications by mounting the CD-ROM and verified that it is version 2.0. In the communication test, I received the result "communication_link_active: true". NGT is enabled on both machines, and the AOS version is 6.5.3.7.

Hello all!  My work uses Nutanix in a three node cluster, but I didn’t have anything to do with setting it up.  For my home, I’m installing CE on a Lenovo workstation with a Xeon E-2134 processor, 16 gigs of ram (getting more).  I installed the CVM to a 250 gig Samsung.  I have a 500 gig SSD and a 12 TB HDD set for data drives.  The hypervisor installed to a USB 3 drive.The install didn’t throw any errors, but neither the host (10.3.0.5) nor the CVM (10.3.0.7) have a web interface.  Checking those IP’s there’s no port 80 or 443 open.  I can SSH into the AHV host, but that’s it.  I’m not sure what to do from there.  I saw something about running the cluster command from the cli, but the AHV doesn’t have that.I’m sure that I’m missing something basic.

After I tested different features about Prism Central I’d like to reduce the size of the VM. Now the VM has 18vCPU and 70Gb RAM, it’s to much for my normal use. Is it possible to reduce the vm?

I am new to this and to Nutanix. I am trying to create an SMTP Alert fro when any user logs into the cluster. I have SMTP configured and the test email has been successful, but when creating manual rules I get no alerts. To be honest I am getting no alerts period at this point.

How can I get Nutanix Move? When I go to https://portal.nutanix.com/ I get this. I’m running CE edition, and would like to test out moving from test ESXi to my CE edition.

There's a security issueI think we should use a KEY-based approach when approaching CVM and AHV.I registered KEY and set lockdown mode, but from AHV to nutanix accountYou can access it, but the root account does not.Is it only available on the original Nutanix account?

I am working on converting my scripts to Powershell 7.x. I tried to use the Nutanix cmdlets 2.0.1 provided for Prism Central. Attempting to connect to Prism Central is failing.

Greetings All,I am new to the Nutanix world (VMware refugee). We have a small vSphere deployment with 3 ESXi hosts (6 functional guests) being backed up via Veeam (on-prem). I am considering replacing this with Prism and AHV also backed up via Veeam. This would seem rather straight forward but it is not proving to be at the moment. Working with the CE installer and following along with the YouTube video by Nutanix University I keep getting stopped by various issues that do not align with what seems to be known issues. The first was the Realtek driver (I deactivated the onboard NIC and replaced with an Intel Server NIC). I am able to ping the AHV but the CSM is not running so I cannot get past the 6:50 point in the video which is ping the CSM. I should mention that I selected to install the AHV to nVME1, Data to nVME2 and CSM tonvME0. Interestingly if I altered the devices, I ran into different issues like first boot failures so I am wondering if there is a communication issue with the

Hi Next!I've been trying to deploy Nutanix on three HPE DL380 G10 without success.Hardware config is exactly the same on the 3 nodes, 2 x Platinum 8260Mm 1 TB RAM, 6 X 3.82 SSD drives, 4 port onboard 1 Gbps NIC (not used), 1 x Infiniband adapter (not used) and 2 x 2 port HP CN 1100R 10Gbps SFP+ cards. All firmware update with latest available PSP (september 2023). First tried Foundation, version 5.5 with installer package fraser-6.5.5.1 and with either ESX 7, ESX8 (HPE Cutomized ISOs) and AHV version integrated in the installer package. Foundation timeout after several retries, and checking iLO server console looks like the installer is not able to assign IP addresses to any network interface so foundation VM is not able to contact the server. If I try to manually assign IP addresses after foundation fails it returns an error indicating that eth5 to eth8 (10 GBps ports) file is not available. If I try to deploy using phoenix ISO (created from foundation VM / with ESX and also with AHV)
