Nutanix Files failover using REST API

I am trying to automate the process of Files failover/failback using REST API. I did test through Prism  Central GUI.  Looked into PC REST API explorer, but I am not finding a URL to make an API call. I am at file 4.2 version. Any ideas ?

objects IPAM Network

I would like to ask a question: When we deploy object storage, the IPAM network segment should match the network segment of the cluster, such as the CVM. Is the host IP address in the same network segment?

Mine with Commvault que

Hello guys,Nutanix is offering the Mine product integrated with Commvault, however, I do not see a guide in Nutanix Portal, though I found the following guide in the Commvault website:https://documentation.commvault.com/fujitsu/v11/essential/144801_configuring_commvault_plug_in_for_nutanix_mine.htmlIt describes the steps to install and configure the Mine Plug-in for Commvault. Still, a step-by-step guide procedure is missing to install and configure the entire product (Mine with Commvault). I wonder if someone can help me with that?>Do I install Commserve manually as a VM? In Mine with Veeam, there is a Foundation Mine with Veeam wizard that orchestrates the installation and configuration.>Do I create the S3 Object Store manually?>If I want to externalise the backups on the S3 store to a tape server for example, what about replicating that storage, is that possible?>Is the NUS Pro license the only license I need for this to work? I also have a few Commvault Backup & Rec

Using Mine with existing Veeam Backup & Replication server

Hi everyone!I have an existing Veeam Backup Server running version 9.5 and I wonder if I can use it in the Foundation Mine with Veeam installer or do I have to upgrade to 10? (As far as I know there’s no documentation on Mine compatibility with Veeam Backup & Replication versions).Also, I have a perpetual socket licence for the Veeam Server I use actually. Will they work?Thank you in advance,

Delivering a Multi-Tenant Object Storage Service

In this video - which walks through setting up Objects for multi-tenancy/self service - you’ll see how s3 users in different departments, organizations, or domains can have a single Nutanix object store divided up between them for efficient and secure resource sharing. The video covers such features as multi directory integration for IAM, multi-FQDN, quotas, objects browser (self-service portal) and bucket tagging…. and in true software-defined fashion we're continuing to add features that make Objects ever more optimized for multi-tenancy.

How to delete a file on Nutanix AFS share?

Good evening, Following problem:I do have a single folder sitting on one of my shares, and I tried literally everything to get it deleted.When trying to delete, or move to a different share, I only get the error “An unexpected network error occured”, so, not very helpful on that front.I was able to change said folders owner (logged into CVM via ssh → logged into FSVM) via afs share.get_authorization_info <share> <folder>However, this didn't help.To make a long story short: Is there a way to delete a folder within a share on a FSVM directly?Thanks in advance!

NX-8235N-G8-CM - Initial Configuration

Hello,We recently purchased 2 x NX-8235N-G8-CM (total of 4 nodes), which will be explicitly used as storage servers.I am having some trouble performing the initial configuration and wondering if I could get some support as I am stuck. This would be my first time setting up a Nutanix device and not sure where to begin.I did try to use the Nutanix Foundation, but no luck while trying to follow what was done here: I do have few questions regarding Foundation though.What I did:Plug in the new devices’s IPMI/data port to a dummy switch (IPMI/HOST IP will be on same subnet) Plug in my laptop with a prod IP address (i.e. 10.8.1.0.24) to switch Launch Nutanix Foundation for Windows Follow what was done in the above videos with my IP addressesNote: I am not running any DHCP nor did I set any static IP for IPMI/AHV/CVM. I read that AHV is already installed for devices sold in the US; however, not sure if the CVM is already installed though. The setup process does ask for manual entries for IPMI/

Nutanix Files Report

I have what, I think, should be a simple request, but for the life of me I’m struggling with it.  My boss would like a list of all file shares in Nutanix Files with a count of files inside those shares.  I cannot seem to find a way to report on this via Files Dashboard or Analytics.  A simple .csv export would be fine.  If I drill down into an individual share, I can see the data I need, but I am not really keen on doing that for approximately 100 shares.

File Share audit trails

I have a customer currently deploying Nutanix Files and they are looking to use File Analytics in place of their current audit tool, Lepide.They are happy with the file-level audit trails in FA, but have asked if the same audit trails are available for Shares - e.g. Is there a log anywhere of who created a specific Share, who last modified it, or who deleted it?  I can’t find an answer to this in the documentation, and if I create a share in the Files Demo all I get is an “Event” in the Files console which doesn’t tell me who did it.

Does Files NFS Require DNS?

Linux server requires NFS volume allocation. Volume allocation due to Nutanix Files configuration. The client company does not have a DNS server. In this case, I wonder if there is an error that can occur when DNS is set to an arbitrary domain name that does not exist.

Level of traffic or bandwidth of iSCSI by Analytics

Hello, We are trying to find out the level or bandwidth of the iSCSI traffic that Analytics requires. This is because we have allocated Analytics in a different network than the CVMs (Data Service IP) so the traffic will be managed by the firewall. We don’t want to overload the firewall with this kind of traffic that could affect to the rest. Any experience with it?. I haven’t been able to find this kind of detail in the documentation. Thank you!
