Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure

NIAC tool is free or do we need pay for it

Hello Community,I want to configure replication and failover plans between 2 separate Nutanix clusters, both running ESXi hypervisor.I do have Vmware SRM licenses and I am aware of these 2 possibilities :1. Replicate VMs using Nutanix Protection Domains (either with Async DR or with Metro Availability) and configure Failover scenarios with SRM via Nutanix SRA2. Replicate VMs using VMware vSphere Replication Appliance and configure Failover scenario with SRMMy question is which of the possibility would you recommend ? which is better in terms of performance and flexibility ?Thanks.

Hello Everyone  I have been building Ansible Playbooks to automate Nutanix VM builds and I have the need to create and attach a volume group to some of the VM’s.  The Nutanix NCP module from Ansible Galaxy has been pretty much the only module I could locate that really handles the vm creation well.  What I have found is that depending on where you go there are conflicts in whether or not version 3 or version 2 of the API is supported.While using the API explorer on Prism Central it is shown as volume_groups and appears exposed.  When reviewing docs and next.nutanix, various API information it appears it should work but doesn’t and I can’t seem to locate any good examples.Anyone here willing to share code or direction on what they have working for volume group creation and management.  I am currently on working with 2 clusters with Prism Central deployed.  I am hopeful I can find a functional example of ansible or api calls that manage volumes and thank anyone in advance for their help.

I have followed the steps from the below linksMigrating Sles 12 VM's From AHV To ESXi Export a VM from Nutanix AHV to VMware ESXiBut when turning on the VM it does not boot gets stuck at the bios screen.

I got an issue where the cluster is DOWN and I unable to access the CVM and AHV via SSH. I have requested for credential to access IPMI, but they do not found any valid credential to access IPMI, even with a default password. There 4 nodes in 1 block, which I only have an access to 1 node [CVM and AHV]. I also unable to access the Prism. Is there any possible way to UP the cluster? Besides, I unable to create case to support.

We have 2 Cluster - Primary cluster we are sending backup cluster for certain VM. If We restore snapshot on same cluster - > guest os can easly assign drive letter But whichever is near by snapshot which available at Backup Cluster if try to restore on Backup clusterDrive letter are not getting assign, which impacting DB Services as DB lying in unassigned drives

Hello everyone, can someone tell me if there are any files which can be deleted safely from this screeshot below, as I am afraid I there are any files which are related to running the system.there error is related to the /home/nutanix/data which showing 25 GB  

If restore from protection domain snapshot at remote site, SID will change the windows 2016 server or do we need to run the sysprep to change the sid?

We are experiencing issues with the "ncc health_checks run_all" command on the Nutanix CVM machine, both from Putty and the web console. The checks are failing or aborting after waiting for more than 30 minutes. Your assistance in resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hybrid Cloud extended network between Azure and private datacenterThis is just one possible scenario that you could use create a Layer 2 stretch network in your hybrid cloud environment. The goal is to understand this scenario and to have a place to ask questions. The plan is to introduce additional scenarios to drive understanding. This scenario is using AOS 6.6. The scenario will mostly likely change with newer AOS releases. We have an Azure environment on the top the below diagram and private datacenter below the Azure environment.  We want to understand what happens if the VMs running on Nutanix in Azure failback/migration to the private datacenter while using layer 2 stretch. After the failover, how will the native Azure VMs in Step 4 reach the VMs that failed/migrated. The VMs running the NC2 cluster in Azure are using a routed path to get access. The means we have ability to route on-prem an native Azures services to the VMs running on the NC2 cluster. Step 1 – L2We have a setup

Hi.We are having no end of trouble with our backup software (druva) it basically keeps trying to talk on port 443 not 9440. Is there a way on a Prism element to be able to do some sort of rewrite so any traffic coming into the server incorrectly on port 443 can get rewritten to go to 9440 instead?

Does anyone else have an issue with Nutanix Element not allowing you to use numlock within the VM?Version 6.5.3.6 LTS

ICAP stands for internet content adaption protocol is an open standard being adopted to connect devices to enterprise-level virus scan engine . same way with the nutanix files is to enable communication with external servers hosting third-party anti-virus software to scan inbound data (files) in transit via Secure Proxy before sending it to the backend destination server.ICAP WORKFLOWThe ICAP service runs on each Nutanix Files file server and can interact with more than one ICAP server in parallel to support horizontal scale-out of the antivirus server. The scale-out nature of Files and one-click optimization greatly mitigate any antivirus scanning performance overhead. If the scanning affects Nutanix Files FSVM performance, one-click optimization recommends either increasing the virtual CPU resources or scaling out the FSVMs. This feature also helps both the ICAP server and Files scale out, ensuring fast responses from the customer’s antivirus vendor WHY Nutanix files integration with

Good day nutanix community A customer it´s going to upgrade his cluster from ESXi 7.0.3 to 7.0 U3l BUT, in the Compatibility and Interoperability Matrix there is no information about this ESXi Version so, it´s is supported this ESXi? Current AOS version 5.20.4.6 LTS and in the LCM it´s available the update  6.5.3.6 LTSModel NX-8035-G8  

We are team of developers working on the hosting platform based on the nutanix cluster  and getting issue with the enable console on new VM without disclosing cluster credentials ?

I made an alert for the hard disk, if its use reaches more than 90%, it sends me an alert on the e-mail, but the problem is that some servers contain a C disk and a D disk, and when one of the disks is full, it does not send me an alert because the other disk has space, so how can I separate the disks from Some in order to warn when any disk is full of them

Good afternoon AllI have just watched a video about converting Br1 to VS1, during the process it shows that the hosts will go into maintenance mode and reboot, however the presenter said that unless the MTU is altered the VS will be created on all hosts with no reboot - I just want to confirm this is correct as this is a live production environment? Many thanksEric  

Hi can any one help me on below query , when i  Create Isolation Policy in Nutanix flow getting below issue how fix it..?can any one explain about the all policy's in Nutanix flow with example..

Hi Every One,Please help me on below question, How we have to integrate vmware infra with nutanix hci…?What is the prerequisites to integrate vmware infra with Nutanix hci…?what are the Network prerequisites to intigrate vmware infra with nutanix hci..? 

Any solution for "Error A6218: AHV Host Password for user nutanix is expiring in the next 500 day(s)"

Can we schedule consistency groups in different schedules in single protection domain?

Subject says most of it. I have read the physical networking “best practices” guide, and I am currently running a small (3-node, NX-1175S-G7) cluster on top of Dell S4112F switches.My org is looking to add a second cluster at a second datacenter, and I was asked if the Mikrotik CRS510-8XS-2XQ-IN or Mikrotik CRS518-16XS-2XQ switches would work for the new cluster.My initial response was “no,” but I’m wondering if anybody has tried it? I would be concerned about buffer size on the switches… but how much does that matter if all of the cluster nodes are connected at the same speed, and I have a L3 boundary (router/firewall) between the VM subnet and the rest of the network (router has much better buffering than any switch would)?I do not have decision-making power here, so how can I “influence” my boss that using three-figure switches is likely to be a problem for a 5-figure+ cluster?
