A disk failed at one node and replaced the disk.I'm trying to restart with CVM and connect to SSHAuthentication continues to fail.Node is in maintenance mode.An SSH key was created to connect without a password, but the node is not connected through the key.Is there another way to connect to a single mode like regular Linux?Or is there a way to create a new CVM?

Hi Everyone, We are currently doing AHV to AHV migration from a DC to another DC. I need some tips on maximizing migration performance to ensure the migration can be done in the fastest way as we have limited time. does upgrading CPU/RAM of Move VM do the trick? or is there any settings that can be tweak to increase the performance? Thank you
Hello!A few years ago, there was a topic raised about this issue, but I would like to confirm if there are any current issues.I am currently using version 5.20 of AOS and it was confirmed that the installation was done with RF3 two years ago.I would like to change this to RF2. I know that it is not possible to change the FT, but I only want to change the part related to Storage.It seems that the command ncli ctr edit rf=2 id=container_ID can be used for this purpose.When making the change, do Nutanix ManagementShare and SelfServiceContainer also need to be changed?Will there be any impact on the service during the change?

Hi everyone,We had an issue with SATADOM on of the nodes, which has been replaced. Unfortunately, we had to rebuild the CVM as well as they hypervisor and now need to add the rebuilt node back to the cluster. The problem is we can’t remove the existing node as we are getting the following error:Error: Cannot mark node for removal. Node xx (xx.xx.xx.xx) is to be added back to metadata storeDoes anyone know how we can overcome this error?P.S. we don’t have Nutanix support coverage anymore.Many thanks in advance.Akbor
Hi,I need to use the API to select the primary NIC that Foundation will use to discover nodes. When I try the request :GET https://[fvm_ip]:8000/foundation/primary_nicI get the following result :{ "primary_nic": 2}That is expected. But when I send the same request using POST, which is valid according the documentation, I now get :{ "error": { "details": [ "'nic' is a required property" ], "message": "Unprocessable Entity", "session_id": null }}My understanding is that the request should be used with a parameter or a body specifying the new primary NIC. But The documentation does not state anything about it. So I tried to pass in “nic”:1 as a parameter and as a body, but still the same error.Is it a bug ? Is the documentation missing some explanations ? Source : Foundation – Nutanix.dev

I see ESXi 8.0 U1a “Vendor” was recently added to the compatibility matrix for HPE DX360 Gen 10 for AOS 6.7.1 and 6.7.1.5 Does this also imply that vCenter 8 is compatible with Prism (stand alone) ?When I talked to support last year they suggested holding off on upgrading vCenter.

We received the Warning: Detected iSCSI discovery or login through cluster external IP address just today and is trying to make sense why we are seeing this Warning. Historically we had never this and has not made any changes to our Nutanix configurations. Combing through our events we can’t seem to figure out what may have triggered this. If anyone has received this before in the past and is a one off thing I would like to hear your experience on why this was triggered on your end. Is this something we should be overly concerned about?Any advice is greatly appreciated. I’m new to this community I apologize if I’m posting this in the wrong forum. Regards, Mike
I have a AHV host who crashed suddenly and does not want to start again 🙄.Like he is in a test environment i tried to remove it from the cluster with ncli command. Host remove-start id=0005f4c2-012c-5363-0000-000000019191::6 force=trueCommand failed because RF2 not permit to remove 1 of the 3 hosts cluster.I decided to reinstall this host with Foundation with new IP’s and new host name.Then, via Prism, i expanded the cluster with this new installed host.A new host appears to be added in cluster, but his status stays as “NEW”…I was hoping that by adding a new host to the cluster, I could then remove the one that crashed 🤔Why this new host stay in status “NEW”?Thanks for your help.
