We moved a NX3000 to a new environment but one of the nodes died. So we had to reimage that node. The other two where still up and running. But after a power-failure on the rack, the two nodes rebooted but won't come up anymore.

Can you file a support ticket on portal.nutanix.com and we can hop on a WebEx to sort this out? Thanks

tried that but this box is not under support anymore as it's a demo box for customers.
We can always do a webex if you want.

Have you verified that the nic's are connected in vcenter?

Right click on the VM, click edit settings, and verify that each nic has the connected box checked.

just found it out. I have no idea why but all my 192.168.5.1 vmk's interfaces where gone on my esxi hosts, WTF.

just recreated them and genesis is starting fine now.
