How It works

We are designing a Nutainx cluster utilizing a NX-1065-G5 four host block licensed with Prism Pro and Acropolis Ultimate. This will be the production site managing approximately 12 workloads. For the recover site we are looking at building a 3 host Dell cluster. The hypervisor throughout the environment will be AHV. There will be a Cisco metro network solution between these two sites. My question is, what are our options for replication between the two sites? The KB lists solutions for ESXi and Hyper-V, but does not mention AHV configurations. Is this because this is a native solution built into the Prism solution? Thank you for any enlightenment.

Hi Everyone, I am migrating VMs to AHV from XenServer. The process involves Copy XenServer VM Disks to Nutanix Datashare on XenServer Create DISK_IMAGE from the disks copied on Nutanix DataShare The manual process is to create an image in Nutanix using URL nfs://Nutanix Host IP/SR Name/SR UUID/DISK UUID.vhd I am looking to automate this step using Powershell and Nutanix Cmdlets 'New-NTNXImage' Please help me on how can I create a image (source: URL) using powershell So far I have this, code:$URL = "nfs://172.21.92.26/Xen_to_AHV_Migration/f63571ed-3fbf-80ba-f851-31767ad753fc/357527a6-e441-46e9-a680-f05f1af831aa.vhd"New-NTNXImage -Name "xenahvwintst - disk 1" -Annotation "Copied VM xenahvwintst - disk 1" -ImageType DISK_IMAGE -ImageImportSpec $URL I am not sure

Hello, I have questions on SSD pool and ILM mechanism I still did not found answers for after cross reading dozens of web sites and forums. Probably the response is obvious but I feel like I am missing something here and would like to have certainties on these points. So, let's suppose I have a 4 hybrid (1065) node cluster and I am running out of SSD. Q1) Can I technically add an All Flash node in the same cluster container ? Q2) Will the VMs hosted on this specific AF node automatically be all flash VMs (with no ILM and cold tier drain mechanism) ... or will they use the cluster cold storage pool (from other hybrid nodes) ? ===== Regarding the ILM mechanism and different SSD thresold, I (think I) understood that: - data will preferentially be stored on local SSD of each node until it reaches 75% usage - If one node reaches 75% of SSD usage, then ILM will
