Sorry if I am asking a silly question. I would like to ask if I configured protection policy from Prism Central. I assume even PC is failed the replication should perform as is just that it would be appreciated if anyone could share some thoughts or documentation to support that.
Is there any kind of integration between Calm and VMware NSX-T? I would like to understand if there is the possibility to “completely automate” deployment of VMs (integration with vsphere) and network services.
Hi@AnishWalia20 ,As per previous query, there was no update for clone permission,But now , on current version of PC 2021.9.0.2 , clone permission is there for ad user, but my query here is to clone other user’s vm or admin created vm. This task i am executing via REST API V3 as per previous query.There is project A(having multiple users) with allow collaboration option, in which ,As a user-A,I am able to clone a vm created by user-B ,But cloned vm owner property is same as User-B.I want to change owner property also while cloning vm via api.After cloning, vm should be owned by user-A.Please let mr know if there is some method to do so.
In the recent version of Prism Central, I am no longer able to configure per-VM affinity rules. I now have to create global affinity policies based on categories. I can see how this is helpful, but it also add a lot of complexity for basic affinity situations like this:I have two VMs dns1 and dns2 and a four host cluster. The two dns servers should never live on the same host. Super easy to do the old way. But how do you do it this way? Would I create a category called `DNS` with `primary` and `secondary` as values? Then create one policy for primary that has host1 and host2 and create another for secondary with host3 and host4?What about a three-vm cluster? How would you ensure they balance onto separate hosts?
Hello All, I am working on a powershell script to create VM’s and I am having an issue with the following piece. $boot=New-NutanixObject BootConfig$boot.uefi_boot=$true$boot.secure_boot=$true$boot.boot_device_type='DISK'$boot.disk_address=$vmDisk.vm_disk_clone.disk_address The error I am seeing is “Boot disk index must be specified” I used the following to make the $vmDisk variable you are seeing at the bottom of the trouble code. $diskImage = (Get-Image | Where-object {$_.name -eq $vmdisks})$diskImage = Get-Image -IncludeVmDiskId -ImageId $diskImage.UUID $cloneDiskAddress=New-NutanixObject VMDiskAddress$cloneDiskAddress.vmdisk_uuid=$diskImage.vm_disk_id$vmDiskClone=New-NutanixObject VMDiskSpecClone$vmDiskClone.disk_address=$cloneDiskAddress$vmDisk=New-NutanixObject VMDisk$vmDisk.is_cdrom=$false$vmDisk.vm_disk_clone=$vmDiskClone I know it is something simple I just don’t know what it is. I appreciate any help. Thanks,Scott
Hi all!I’m writing a runbook with tasks that needs to use different endpoints from different Nutanix Projects. This seems to be impossible, so I want to check in with the community to see if I’m doing something wrong. :)I can create an endpoint without “assigning” it to a specific project, but this doesn’t matter since I have to define a project when creating a runbook. This means that I can only use endpoints that are assigned to the project the runbook is using.An endpoint can only be assigned to one project so assigning an endpoint to multiple projects is not an option.One possible (as well as very clunky and cumbersome) workaround would be to create identical endpoints for every project that needs access to it, but all endpoints must be uniquely named which makes this even more of a nightmare.Is what I want to do at all possible?Thanks.
Hi.There is no example of a schema for the Launch marketplace item API call due to the schema being too large.Can someone please provide me with either a schema that I can use “as-is” for launching a blueprint via the marketplace or an example schema that I can base my call on?Thanks!
I wan to migrate the prism central vm (scaled out 3Prism Central) AHV cluster to Nutanix+Esxi cluster. which is the best method to migrate the prism central vm, we have 3 prism central vm in the production, so all the PC we need to migrate. after migrate any manual configuration is required, please suggest best method.

I need to change the expiration period for the password based on local password. Do you know which command allow to do that, I have checkedncli authconfigbut without success.Cheers from Tahiti
There has been always slight confusion as to what of the 2 commands to use while destroying a cluster - cluster destroy and cluster -f destroyThe difference between the two are cluster destroy : This will clean out all the data on the cluster and wipe out all the configurations. cluster -f destroy : This command does the exact same thing. Also it will bypass any check for any service on the node. It grants permission to destroy cluster even if zookeeper node is not accessible. Think of it as forcefully destroying the cluster. Always make sure to reclaim licenses before destroying the cluster to follow best practice.Licenses can be reclaimed via the portal or can also be reclaimed manually via SFDC.If licenses are reclaimed manually following commands need to be run once they are reclaimed:ncli -h truencli license reset-license
Hi all,I have noticed 8 of categories are needed for creating a vm.

Have you noticed your Prism being unavailable via GUI or API when an AOS upgrade is running? This can occur during an AOS upgrade from 5.15.x or older to 5.19 or newer AOS. For more information check out KB 12280.
Hi!If you have several Virtual machines on an AHV cluster that must be deleted, can you delete them at the same time from Prism Central or should you remove them one by one from Prism Element?Also, is there any Rest API or PowerCLI to do that process? Thanks
We have a subset of VMs that a group of users needs readonly and console access. This is not difficult with RBAC using categories. However, when we clone these systems for testing or new deployment, the assigned categories don’t get inherited from the source VM. Since we do this often, this is a management headache.Is this standard behavior? If so, any ideas on how to do this easily? I was hoping projects might be helpful, but I can’t find much useful documentation or examples to guide me.
Feeling like a real noob today…Error comes back immediately. I have tried my email address and my NEXT username. I have verified that the CVM can ping the my.nutanix.com.I wanted to try resettting my password on Next but cannot find the link to do that in my user profile.
