Configure AHV IP | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

We have Lenovo HX (3752) installed with 3 nodes pre-bundled with AHV and AOS. The onsite technician configured IPMI (XCC) and we are now able to login to the XCC and also able to access the console (AHV). I wanted to do the following,

  1. Change the AHV IP address from the console (commands)? Know the AHV version and its default IPs/current IPs from the console?
  2. Connect/ssh to CVM and change the CVM IPs?
  3. Create Cluster of 3 nodes

The easiest method is to run foundation and follow the wizard. 

But here are the answers for your questions:

  1. https://next.nutanix.com/installation-configuration-23/how-to-change-controller-vm-and-host-ip-address-38504
  2. The cvm running on the host is always accessible via ssh nutanix@192.168.5.254 
  3. cluster --dns_servers=192.168.2.8,192.168.2.9 --ntp_servers=0.nl.pool.ntp.org,1.nl.pool.ntp.org,2.nl.pool.ntp.org,3.nl.pool.ntp.org --redundancy_factor=2 -s 192.168.2.71,192.68,2,72,192.168.2.73 --cluster_name=Cluster-Nutanix --cluster_external_ip=192.168.2.76 create 
    1. Run this from a cvm and change to ips to match your configuration.
