PC.2022.9: Mandatory Microservice infrastructure, separate license; ESXi update without it? | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

Hi All

Currently a new version has been released for prism that is pc.2022.9 . In which, it has been mentioned that Microservice infrastructure would be enabled by default and it is mandatory as well for this version .

Can anyone confirm that enable of microservice infrastructure requires separate license as in my current infra i dnt have Microservice infrastructure enabled and i dnt require it also .[I am using ESXi as a hypervisor] .

Also, is there any way old version of Prism[PC.2022.6.0.1] can be update to this pc.2022.9 version without having Microservice infrastructure enabled ?

Hi there,

Hope you’re well.

As far as I know there’s no licensing impact - as long as your PC is within the specs required - https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA00e000000CvAnCAK from https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Prism-Central-Guide-vpc_2022_6:mul-cmsp-reqs-and-limitations-pc-r.html I wouldn’t see a problem in upgrading.

 

I wouldn’t recommend using an older version to avoid the microservice infrastructure - won’t be long before it leaves you in an unsupported PC state.

 

I have a feeling new PC functionality is going to build on this infrastructure in the future to allow for modular stuff to be included/developed.

 

Cheers,
