How To Send a Report to Slack

The Reporting feature of Nutanix Cloud Manager Intelligent Operations enables you to create reports and schedule them to be e-mailed on a regular basis. But did you know you can also send these reports to Slack? While the reporting framework currently only allows you to specify e-mail, you can set up a time-based playbook using Nutanix’s low-code/no-code automation tool (also known as X-Play), along with the Generate Report and Slack actions.Note: Be sure to set up your Slack app as per the documentation. You’ll also need to ensure that the file:write permission scope is granted to the app.Once you have a report configured, set up your playbook. From the main Prism Central 2023.3 dashboard, select Intelligent Operations from the drop down menu, then navigate to the hamburger menu > Playbooks. Alternatively, just search for Playbooks in the search bar.  Click on Create Playbook, then select the Time trigger.Specify the schedule you want the playbook to run on (i.e. how often you want

Unable to launch Prim elements from Prism Central.

Hello,I added a secondary Cluster to my Prism Central loaded in another site. Inside Prim central im unable to do launch Prism elements of this cluster. I get a error saying. " This action is not supported on unreachable cluster" Ports 80/9440 are open between all CVMs/Nodes and Prism central. I can see data from the cluster in Prism central, so I'm just wondering what I'm missing?

SSL cert Prism Central issue

I receive the following error when trying to use a public signed cert in Prism Central:Unsupported signature algorithm detected on one or more certificates in CA chain. Please refer to the FIPS 140-2 documentation for more information. I did the same for Prism Element a few days ago and that went fine. Followed the exact same steps (minus the FQDN of course) for Central but this throws an error. What's the difference between the 2?

Nutanix Calm API request returns incorrect task UUID

I am currently using Nutanix Calm API v3. After creating a crash-consistent VM recovery point using the POST endpoint /api/nutanix/v3/mh_vms/{vm_uuid}/snapshot and verifying that it exists on Prism Central, I attempted to revert the VM to this recovery point using the POST endpoint /api/nutanix/v3/mh_vms/{vm_uuid}/revert using the recovery point uuid in req body. The response has 200 status code but the task reference returned has task_uuid value of ‘something’. I also cannot see any alerts on PC indicating that the VM revert task has been attempted. May I know if anyone has experienced this issue before and how I might rectify this issue? Im not sure how to proceed since the API request appears to be successful. In particular, I would like to understand the circumstances under which Calm API returns tasks with uuid value of ‘something’. Thanks!

Cannot revert VM from recovery point on Prism Central

I have attempted to create a VM recovery point on Prism Central and revert it from the recovery point. However, I am getting an info-level message that the recovery point is degraded and that the recovery Point for VM failed to capture associated policies and categories because the network name is not available for the VM.The VM revert task also does not seem to have been executed as there is no event confirming success. The VM is created from a blueprint that is part of a project with a configured VPC, and I have already verified that there are no issues in connection between PC and PE. May I know possible reasons for why this is happinening and how I might resolve this? I have consulted the link https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA00e000000CyDeCAK but it seems to be targeted at VMs running on ESXi, our VMs run on AOS/AHV. Thanks!

Scaling out Prism Central from Small to Large or from small to X-Large

HiNutanix 6.6.2.5Installing Prism Central (1-Click Internet)When I deploy PC, then there is an option, as either:Small Large X-LargeWhen I selected small. Then I get 1.VM with “6 vCPUs, 26 GB of memory, and 500 GiB of storage.”I deploy it. And after there is an option to “Scale out PC”. I can scale out to 3-VM, so I get 3x “6 vCPUs, 26 GB of memory, and 500 GiB of storage.” But my question is, can I scale out from Small to Large as well ?And also from Small to X-Large..?Or I need drop my PC to achieve that..? I am new to nutanix. And I would like to know, which is the best approach for later on, when there is a need to expand.Also, as I have read, the Flow Virtual Networking requires “Advanced Networking”, which needs X-Large deployments.We might need that option later on. So I want to know, should I need to create X-Large deployment now, or can I change it later on. Thanks. RegardsRaul

PowerShell Cmdlets and New Prism Central pc.2023.1.0.1

I find that I am stuck between a rock and a hard place all of a sudden. I have been using the original Nutanix PowerShell cmdlets (Add-PSSnapin NutanixCmdletsPSSnapin) for weekly inventory scripts.  I also have a script for deploying new VMs from images that use these cmdlets. Our production Prism Central is pc.2022.6.0.3 and I can still login to that just fine (Connect-NTNXCluster).  However, we are having numerous issues with that build and support has advised they have been resolved in the newest build pc.2023.1.0.1. We have a test Prism Central instance with one test AHV cluster.  Yesterday we updated that to pc.2023.1.0.1 and now I cannot connect with the cmdlets. Scripts> Connect-NTNXCluster -Server $PCentral -Username $MyCreds.Username -Password $MyCreds.Password -AcceptInvalidSSLCerts -ForcedConnectionConnect-NTNXCluster : Invalid JSON primitive: Authentication.At line:1 char:1+ Connect-NTNXCluster -Server $PCentral -Username $MyCreds.Username -Pa ...+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

mutual authentication webhooks

I’m trying to secure webhook communication. I’m using PRISM Element. My callback server uses https and has a web-server certificate installed issued by a local CA. First question is, which CA certificate will PRISM use to validate the callback server certificate? Is it the same CA certificate used for the PRISM web server? Second question, how does the callback server verify that the webhook effectively originated from PRISM? Is this mutual TLS or is there another method? If mutual authentication, what certificate does PRISM use for this?

How To Use Grouping in Your Reports

Elevate Your Reports With GroupingWith Nutanix Cloud Manager you can create your own custom reports with either custom or pre-defined views. (To learn more about reporting basics, check out this video)In the video below, I show how you can use the grouping functionality to group all your views by a specific entity using the custom group view. After watching the video, keep reading to learn more about different ways to use grouping!There are two ways to group entities: Custom Group View Group Data within a Custom View You can use the custom group view either by selecting all the existing views and clicking on Create Group, or adding a group using the custom Group view and adding views to that group.There is also the ability to group data within a custom view itself. For example, if you wanted to create a line chart to display VM memory usage, you can group by cluster within this view under Advanced Settings.So what’s the difference?When grouping data within a view, you will see a sepa
