Nutanix Cloud Manager

Hello, we have only recently implemented Nutanix in our environment so apologies if this is a noob question. My issue is this: I have a 2012 Server VM that I need to repair using the CMD prompt. I am adding a CDROM with the Server 2012 ISO mounted and set to boot. After Windows setup loads I open CMD prompt but the disk where the OS is installed can't be found. Its as if only the ISO is being seen and no other drives. What am I doing wrong?

Hi, I have a Blueprint with two VM (Names: APACHE and MYSQL) and would like to put on both servers an entry into /etc/hosts as "ip - hostname" I put on every package the following commands: echo "@@{APACHE.address}@@ @@{APACHE.name}@@ @@{APACHE.name}@@.localdomain" >> /etc/hosts echo "@@{MYSQL.address}@@ @@{MYSQL.name}@@ @@{MYSQL.name}@@.localdomain" >> /etc/hosts But I get the following errors: Application Profile Default > Action Create Found cycles in tasks Application Profile Default > Action Delete Found cycles in tasks Application Profile Default > Action Soft Delete Found cycles in tasks Deployment 6b297d3c_deployment > Action Create Found cycles in tasks Deployment 6b297d3c_deployment > Action Delete Found cycles in tasks Deployment 6b297d3c_deployment > Action Soft Delete Found cycles in tasks How can I assign variables between servers? thanks!

Hi Everyone, Using CALM, I start a VM but can install an Apache (yum install httpd) via script. I see the error: "script execution has failed with error Domain name not found" My template is a CentOS without a domain. What's the exactly error?

Hello. Welcome to Tech TopX. My name is Alex Heath, and I'm a systems reliability engineer in Durham, North Carolina. In this quick video, we will cover an alert you might see in your cluster. Let's navigate to the alerts tab in Prism. Here's an example of the alert. In order to resolve this alert, the CVM is not synchronizing time with any external servers, we'll first need to add an NTP server to your cluster. Let's navigate to settings, then NTP servers. Input your server and click add. We can also add NTP servers through CLI by running the following: NCLI, cluster, add to NTP servers, servers equals, and then server name. Now let's resolve the alert. Okay. Next, we'll verify the NTP server has been added. Once these steps have been completed, we can run an NCC to verify the alert has been resolved. NCC health checks, network checks, check NTP. If you have any other videos you would like to see, please comment below. Thanks for watching.

Welcome to Tech Topics. My name is Alex Heath, and I'm a systems reliability engineer in Durham, North Carolina. In this quick video, we will cover an alert you might see on your cluster, so let's navigate to where the alerts are in Prism. Here is an example of the alert. In Prism, you might see an alert, disk space usage high. This alert is generated when a disk. Usage on your controller VM reaches 95% in order to verify, first we need to check the disk usage across the cluster. You can do this by running the following, all SSH DF-H. Here's an example of one of your CVMs. We can see here that the home directory is above 95%. We can remove any unnecessary files by following KB 1540. You can find a link to that in the description below. I've deleted some larger files to clear up some space. Once that's done, you can verify the space has been cleared by rerunning DF-H on the effected CVM or run the specific NCC check, NCC health checks, hardware checks, disk checks, disk usage check. Th

Hi there, Does Nutanix provide a simulator on sandbox/hosted version of Prism? We want to fetch few monitoring parameters/operational health data into our own tool using Prism APIs. However, we currently don't have Nutanix gear in our lab, so wondering, if we can get simulator or sandbox access. Thanks

Hello, I have Lenovo Node HX but I install Prism Central and I have a task Error :Internal Error USER detail Error: {'api_version':'3.1',code:404,Message_list:[['message:could not look up spec ae24f90-8a11-5c40-8afe-a9d7e5fe8eb6 while trying to update, reason:ENTRY_NOT_FOUND}],sate:ERROR} I don't find any inofrmation and when I try to open ticket I don't seen any option for Prims ticket.

Hi All, I am in the progress of launching a blueprint via CALM. However encountered the IP not found error. How do we add the IP address to the Blueprint VM Configuration? Have filled up all possible network related fields: Network adapters (NICS) : NIC 1 - VLAN0 Connection: Address - NIC 1 From the logs: Waiting for 60 seconds to finish the guest customization Reapplying micro segmentation categories Waiting for VM a2b28676-fa5d-4ab3-a1bb-04cdc9351727 to get an IP ERROR: Failed to get an IP for the VM a2b28676-fa5d-4ab3-a1bb-04cdc9351727 It seems that it is stuck in the Guest customization issue. Should I be adding an ip address in the script? Thank you!

Good day! Does anyone know how to check the pre registration checks which are failing for me? Tasks message on the CE cluster doesn't state anything in detail Just says create remote connection- 100% Aborted register prism element with prism central- 100% Aborted pre registration checks- 100% Failed Prism seems to be running ok ( AHV)

I did a trial of Flow about a year ago. We decided to not implement Flow. Since then obviously the licenses have expired, but the expiry banner remains even though we don't plan on using it. How do I remove that license/suppress the banner?

How to change Prism Central IP in CLI. Please help me with the commands. Thank You.

Hello, We want to manage multi-tennancy using Nutanix. We have different clients and we want to give visibility them only to manage their VMs. When a client access to prism console, he only will be able to check his VMs and resources, create new machine on his side...not resources and VMs from the B client for example. Is this possible using the last version (5.10.2)? We have seen on last version Nutanix has launched Self Service Portal? Could it be helpful to achieve this requirement? Thanks in advance. Regards,

Hi, Is there a way to see/export the OS type of the VMs? We are trying to find out how many Windows servers we have of each version (2016, 2012). Thanks Regards

Hello, My AHV cluster is attached to PC I have created VM and I need to convert this VM to template but the acli command clone_from_vmdisk falls with error not allowed when PE is registered with PC I have cloned VM with PC but I don't know how to convert to image. Thanks for your support

Customer has large Nutanix environment across globe and would like to upgrade prism central to 5.10.2, but the download link is not available in the portal. The download link was there before a month and not now. Could you please share the link to download PC 5.10.2 (upgrade) and is there a reason why it has been removed from the portal.? Thanks.

As a sysadmin we all have our special way of doing things and that includes how we like our systems configured. In the past I would have certain icons listed on the desktop, along with remote session colored coded in terms of production, development, and disaster recovery.Did you know you can configure the Nutanix Prism login screen?It’s easier to do than you think, and I’ve seen some really cool examples of what the community have done to personalize their environments.

Dear all I have a problem with Prism service. Now i have created new Cluster with 1 node in VMware and all Cluster services has been started. But from Client computer i still cannot login to console. Please have a look attachment for more detail. Hope to receive any advice. Thanks so much.

I just created 4 new Server 2012R2 VMs and this morning I see yellow exclamation points on them with the message "VSS snapshot is not supported for the VM 'WinSrv12R2', because VM has IDE disks attached" These were created with 100G SATA drives and a SATA CD-ROM so I cant figure out why I'm seeing this message. Thank you

I recently had an individual VM whose CPU spiked to between 94-98% for roughly 6 hours. I'd only caught it because the user finally called in and said their VM was slow. In Prism it wasn't showing a warning at all, but I could very clearly see that the CPU was pegged. I wondered if there was any way to set up an email alert for if CPU/RAM at the VM-level has sustained utilization above a certain threshold?

I am trying to access the console of a VM in AHV. I have powered on the VM. While trying the button 'launch console' , the screen becomes grey for a moment. But I don't get the console. I tried this using chrome and firefox.

Hi Team, I wanted to export list of VMs and its Guest OS. All information i could see except OS. same is added with '-'. What could be preventing Prism central from fetching OS details?
