Cisco Nutanix deployment - Software matrix and intersight CVA

Hi, 

What is the underlying hypervisor you are using , is it AHV or ESXI?if it is ESXI then Vcenter must be (should be) available.

Hi jamali.ahmad

I am going to use AHV as hypervisor. But customer have only single ESXi node with him no vcenter server. In this scenario do i need to use 2022 PC which do not require vcenter server, then upgrade cluster to latest? What will be the best thing to do? 

Thanks

Hi :)

There a 3 Ways.

It depends on your Sceanrio.

1. IMM - Intersight Managed Mode

2. UMM - UCS Manager Mode

3. Standalone Mode (exclusive to C Series, no FIs Required)

Use the Cisco Field Install Guides (it is linked in the Cisco Community Links i shared) :)

PS:

If he has no Intersight, migrate him first. IMM is the Future :)

Use the IMM Migration Tool as a Webserver für Deploy AHV/ESXI and AOS and etc.
