Any update on using copy/paste from our workstation/laptop into a VM Console of windows VM hoted on AHV cluster? How Do I Enable Copy and Paste in AHV? | Nutanix Community this would be a great feature to implement but it does not seem to be any information as to when this would be available and we would be deploying 3 new AHV Clusters so not sure if this is on the pipeline. thank you
Hi all,Today we have Set up a Windows file failover cluster.WE have configured a volume group with one vdisk for quorum and one volume group with two vdisks for data.Windows see the two disks in the second volume group seperately. WE have attached the volume groups directly to the Windows VM.Why is the volume group seen as seperate disks?Should it not be only one? Regards,Thomas

Hi all,I just setup a new AHV environment and was wondering if it still needed to change the passwords for the users:adminnutanix...on AHV!https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=AHV-Admin-Guide-v6_8:app-ahv-access-initial-config-t.htmlThe reason for asking is, that they do not seems to be the default passwords (tried to login with them - did not work: nutanix/4u) - and also the standard alarm that informs that you need to change these disappeared just after I changed the root password!Has something changed in ver. 6.7 / 6.8 ?
HiI have a pod with cluster IP already. I want to expose this as load balacner or nodeport service and take one of the private IP from the subnet. However none seem to be working. I just want to know if there is some annotations or additional settings that we need to do to achieve this or exposing pods as service via standard yaml or kubectl commands should work?for example this - kubectl expose deployment sandbox-airflow-web --type=LoadBalancer --name=sandbox-airflow-web-service --namespace=sandbox-airflowdidnt generate any external IP or errors. was stuck in pending. I later patched it to get an IP but there IP didnt return the website.Kubectl patch svc sandbox-airflow-web-service -n sandbox-airflow -p'{"spec": {"type": "LoadBalancer", "externalIPs":["172.20.8.50"]}}'thanks.
Hi, I am doing 4 node AHV cluster decomission. I did all the steps and finally gave cluster destroy and ensure it was destroyed completely. I want to do factory reset of all the nodes where the hypervisor /cvm configurations like hostname, IP etc will we wiped out. Let me know the procedure on this. Thanks.
I need to edit XML <feature> <hyperv mode> <cpu mode> by command “virsh edit vm_name”on the host.but when powered off VMs there not show UUID on any host. acli vm.update cannot edit XML file like “virsh edit vm_name”
Hi,Please help me on below quarry,while migrating the vm getting below issue, if it is ports issue, please help me which ports need to allow from firewall side.
Hello, I am seeking your assistance with enabling replication on my cluster, which consists of 5 servers and 60 VMs. I am undecided between Metro mode and Asynchronous mode on Prism Central. Given that I have two clusters using Metro-type replication, we encounter difficulties when Metro mode is activated, as clients experience significant slowdowns on their VMs. This is why I am considering enabling Asynchronous replication on Prism Central. My question is: if I activate Asynchronous replication on Prism Central while other clusters are using Metro mode, will this have any impact? Thank you for your help.
How can I find out the address of UUID when it is powered off? I need to edit some custom option by command “virsh edit vm_name” before power on.
I have taken a bare metal server backup which is running windows server 2016. need to to know Nutanix VM support this kind of backup. if not how can i restore bare metal backup.
Currently, my AOS Version is 6.5, Nutanix requires upgrading to AOS 6.5.3, but I want to upgrade to a newer version. How do you know that the upcoming AOS version will not affect the current AHV version?
Hi Team,We are considering deploying a Nutanix cluster environment to meet best practices while addressing our current demands. We plan to set up Site A as the production cluster and Site B as the disaster recovery cluster.Nutanix Disaster Recovery Solutions offer two options: Protection Domain-Based and Prism Central-Based, along with different replication modes such as Sync, NearSync, and Async.If we choose the Protection Domain-Based solution, for Sync (Metro Availability) we plan to deploy one cluster at each site (A and B), a VM witness in a VMware environment at Site C (which will be registered with Prism Element at each site), and a Prism Central at either Site A or Site B. The built-in continuous backup will protect Prism Central, and it will manage the Prism Elements of each site.If we opt for the Prism Central-Based solution, which offers more advanced features like protection policies and recovery plans, I understand that the witness is a service integrated with Prism Centra
Hello,We have an old VM that is in our Nutanix cluster. It is running an old version of Windows server, and our Cyber department does not want it connected to the network. There has been a request to retrieve historic data from the server. Is there a way to boot the server with the network disconnected and use a USB drive connected to the Nutanix host to export the data? If there is no way to do that what other possibilities will work? Can the virtual disk from the old server be mounted on a new network connected VM? Thanks
Hi team,When I try to log into the PRISM web interface, I get the error message "Unable to authenticate. Please contact the Nutanix administrator." This has never happened before. What should I do in this situation?

Create your own virtual networking / security lab without having to purchase hardware.Eve-Ng is similar to another popular networking/security tool called GNS3. I’ve run (GNS3 successfully on HyperV.)Both products are network emulation hypervisors that allow you to, say, load real IOS images from your environment to run them as virtual appliances. You can emulate routers, switches, firewalls, WAPs, clients, web servers, etc.Then you can test IOS upgrades, routing changes, or whatever you want without having to risk messing with your live environment. It’s also a great tool for education.The environment has a visual dashboard that allows you to see your network in a GUI, similar to Cisco Packet Tracer, GNS3, or MS Visio.Eve-ng is based on KVM and appears to be running very well nested inside AHV.https://www.eve-ng.net/You will need to prepare AHV to allow the VM to run as a nested hypervisor.The following commands will allow you to do that and so far that is all that was needed to ge
I have a cluster of 7 nodes of which 2 are Lenovo HX3320 with 480GB SSD + 6 2TB HDD and I need to replace the 480GB ones with 3.86TB or larger, due to recent growth in the number of nodes in the cluster. What is the correct procedure to make the change?

Hello,I’m new to Nutanix, we just started to work with the system and I have a small problem.Unlike VMWare Nutanix doesn’t have PowerShell Module so I’m working directly with the API.My problem is that I want to create automation for set categories and tags based on variables like the disk/VM name etc. I can’t find a way to use a token for security reasons and not send the username and password as Base64 which isn’t secure.
