Running Reapir Host boot disk hung

Using phoenix to reimage a node after a failed satadom, after phoenix is loaded, I uploaded AHV ISO so it can proceed to install AHV/AOS. It turns out I uploaded the  lcm_ahv_el7.nutanix.20201105.2267.tar.gz instead of the AHV-DVD-x86_64-el7.nutanix.20201105.2267.iso. The install is now hung at 75% Node discovery succeeded. I have tried to install the proper iso, but it immediately failed at that same progress. How can I cancel this install so I can try again?​I did find this error in the foundation log. It looks like the error happens if you use the html 5 client to mount the phoenix iso, but I am using the java client.

DARE certificate upload via api

I am attempting to automate the data-at-rest encryption setup on our clusters and I am struggling with the certificate upload api.  Does anyone have examples of using this api or could help me figure out how to make it work?  Prism V2 APIPost:/data_at_rest_encryption_certificates/svm_certificates/multi_file {  "certificate_map": {},  "key_management_server_name": "string"} I am not sure what to enter for the certificate_map.  Is the the contents of the certs, a file, or something else?

PD WITH PRISM ELEMENT: VM size comparison before and after replication between two clusters

I configured domain protections between my primary and secondary site.domain protections are configured by VMs which means that I have as many domain protections as VMs.After the first replications, I would like to make sure that the size of my VM on the primary site is identical on the secondary site but I find that this is not the case.I don't know if I'm doing a good interpretation.Attached is the capture of my VM on the primary site before replication and on the secondary after replication.Please help me with your explanations.

Affinity rules light

Hello All,       I am working with Affinity policies and I wonder if there is an Affinity “light”. What I mean by this is in Hyper-v clusters you have a “Preferred Server” this means that if the preferred server is available the vm will reside there if not it will move to stay running. Once the preferred server is back online then it will move back. Is this possible in AHV? Thanks,Scott

10 Key with Nutanix Frame

Hi! I’ve been getting some reports of users unable to use the numpad part of their 10-key keyboard in Frame… seems to work outside of Frame just fine, and no, numlock isn’t on :)  I’ve seen it, though I haven’t been able to reproduce it myself, or isolate a trigger for when it happens to people. Just curious if anyone else has come across something like this?
