Automating Protection Domain Failover | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

Hi All,

Wondering if anyone has scripted the addition and configuration of nic’s for VM’s that have failed over in a PD? Noticed a few posts from a few years ago but seeing if approach has changed at all. My approach (no script yet):

  • Check which PD’s have become active at remote site to get list of vm’s
  • grab mac and ip info from a mainted csv (plan to use dhcp reservations on dhcp server)
  • Add nic’s with info grabbed from csv
  • Perform some DNS updates
  • Power on

Interested to know what others are doing and any feedback on my approach would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Check manage script section from Leap admin guide. It should provide for limited ability to run system prep script, etc.
