Connecting Cloud Innovators: Building Community at .NEXT 2024
Perfect, thank you! Yes, I just received that same link from Support :) I think both my problems are now solved. BTW I'd done multiple searches using the keywords 'Nutanix guest tools' and 'server 2008' and didn't find that article. But I realize now that if I'd included 'sha-2' i would've found it. Thanks again for your quick help.
Hey, [url=http://next.nutanix.com/member/profile?mid=7246]Bensation[/url] (Sweet handle) EDIT: Sorry, I've completely rewritten this post because that procedure you linked me to might solve my problem. At first I thought it was just telling me to mount the CD AFTER cloning and install NGT AFTER cloning but after rereading a couple of times it looks like an install BEFORE cloning and sort of a reinstall after cloning. This might work for me. My problem, and I've opened a support case for this, is that for Server 2008 r2 VMs the NGT installer looks for KB3033929 as a prerequisite. That KB patch has long been superseded, so any updated servers will refuse to install KB3033929 and NGT will refuse to install. I was hoping that I could build a new template, patch it with KB3033929 so that NGT will install, then do the rest of the patches and sysprep.
I'm hardly an expert, but the 'AHV Best Practices' guide recommends more vCPUs. I'll paste the quote below, maybe someone else can fill in more details if you need them. [url=http://go.nutanix.com/AHV-best-practices-guide.html]http://go.nutanix.com/AHV-best-practices-guide.html[/url] Nutanix recommends first increasing the number of vCPUs whenmore than one CPU is needed in a VM, rather than increasing the cores per vCPU. If a user VMrequires four CPUs, Nutanix recommends the configuration shown below. [img]https://d1qy7qyune0vt1.cloudfront.net/nutanix-us/attachment/2489iD05EC69DA4695DFB.png[/img]
