AOS 6.8.0.5 | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

AOS integrates storage, compute and networking resources into a scalable, secure, resilient and easy-to-use software-defined infrastructure.

Review the detailed release notes before deploying any product updates.

Installation and Upgrade

  1. Installation and Upgrade Guide: For upgrading to AOS AHV or Prism Central, refer to the LCM Upgrade Guide. Ensure all compatibility checks are performed as outlined in the Nutanix Compatibility and Software Interoperability section .

  2. AHV Installer Bundle: The AOS bundle no longer includes AHV. For deploying an AHV environment with AOS 6.8 or later, download the AHV installer bundle from the Nutanix Support Portal .

  3. Compatibility Matrices: Before installation or upgrade, consult the Nutanix support portal for various compatibility matrices including upgrade paths, hardware model compatibility, and AHV guest OS compatibility .

  4. LTS / STS Releases: Determine your cluster’s release type (LTS or STS) using the nCLI command line .

New Features

  1. TCP Wrapper: Starting with AOS 6.8, TCP Wrapper is no longer supported .

  2. Chrony for NTP: Chrony replaces the deprecated NTP package .

Requirements and Considerations

  1. NetBackup 8.2: Support requires an emergency engineering binary (EEB) from Veritas Support .

  2. VLAN Discovery: VLAN discovery is disabled by default to prevent VM unavailability issues. If previously enabled, it will be disabled post-upgrade .

  3. Virtual Switch Migration: Ensure specific requirements are fulfilled for a successful virtual switch migration during the AOS upgrade .

  4. NVIDIA GPUs: Nutanix supports NVIDIA GPU cards based on compatible AOS and AHV versions. Refer to the NVIDIA GRID Host Driver for AHV Installation Guide for details .

  5. Host-Based Reservation: The host-based reservation method is deprecated and not supported. Segment-based reservation is used for VM high availability .

Resolved Issues

  1. LCM Updates and Rolling Reboots: Resolved failure issues in mixed clusters running AHV alongside Icelake and Sapphire Rapid nodes .

  2. Stargate: Fixed issue where guest VMs failed when the NFS leader was hosted on a degraded controller VM .

For further details and a comprehensive list of resolved and known issues, refer to the full release notes document.
