5 Essential Tips for Maximizing Your Experience at Nutanix .NEXT for Bloggers
Intel I350 Dual worked and I was able to install Nutanix on bare metal Dell XPS, pretty much plug and play.. it is a combination of having the correct bios settings and supported NIC.. the Dell XPS is ideal for a lab because the motherboard supports 4x32GB of memory.https://www.ebay.com/itm/154060936065?epid=8023105245&hash=item23debf5381:g:yxQAAOSwpwBfR0qT thanks @Primzy for the help on troubleshooting the disk and nic issue..
A friend sent me the link bellow for Nutanix Commercial…click on the Dell PowerEdge, find the Nutanic’s 3rd party PCIe “supported” NICs, 1Gb and 10Gb.. I have a PCIe I350 1GbE NIC on the way to test and will update my findings. Having a list of which PCIe NICs are currently supported (without having to build the NIC drivers) by CE and tested working by the community would help new members on their Nutanix Lab adventure running on bare metal.
