Nutanix CE 2.1 - Prevent Stargate from consuming spare CVM storage | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

Building a (3) node Nutanix Cluster for HomeLab/Education/Migration away from VMware.  

Hardware:

(3) HP DL360  w/  (3) NVME devices:

(2) Samsung 256GB NVMe

(1) 3TB Oracle/Samsung F320 NVMe

Can successfully build the cluster and consumes the 3TB F320 devices correctly but also consumes the spare capacity from the CVM (marked at install) SSD.

The norm is to consume all available SSD space but in this case I am concerned about wear level on the CVM marked SSD where the F320s were designed for high PBW.

My preference is to only use the F320s for all storage operations and “block” the CVM spare capacity from being used in the default storage pool.

 

Thank you in advance!
