5 Essential Tips for Maximizing Your Experience at Nutanix .NEXT for Bloggers
I'm just writing up a powerCLI script to spin up desktop pools and do things like enable/disable shadow clones and grab metrics through the REST API. It's only going to measure provisioning though, not workloads. I got held up because it seems that even though VAAI is now a supported feature in View 5.3, there is no parameter to enable it when creating a pool. Wierd thing is that everything spins up so fast it looks like it is enabled, even though it says it's disabled if you look at the pool in the View Administrator. I opened a support ticket up with VMware, who said it's not supported yet. I'd appreciate anyone else calling up and saying where's my VAAI support in PowerCLI, maybe it will make it to View 5.4 then. We've been having issues with refreshing thrashing and the disks getting kicked offline and nodes being thrown out of the metadata ring that is supposed to be fixed in 3.5.3, so I'm really not looking at the script to measure max performance, but can I have 1000 use
I use helper VMs. So much easier to send a new block out to a site and just tell them to plug it in, then I can configure the block from whereever I am.
I have been waiting to implment the SRA until 5.5 support. They promised me that it would come in 3.5.3 which was just released last night. I plan to try it out next week because vSphere replication has been such a pain to work with compared to protection domains.
