5 Essential Tips for Maximizing Your Experience at Nutanix .NEXT for Bloggers
Hello Angelo/[user=7898]aluciani[/user] , I've automated setting up Prism Central and the UI login screen, here's the relevant function in my script = https://github.com/mlavi/stageworkshop/blob/master/scripts/stage_calmhow_pc.sh#L123 Cheers, --Mark
[user=23540]weiyi[/user] Good, it appears you've followed the documentation procedures for set up. Aside from going into troubleshooting the logs on the CVMs on a deeper level, we've gone past my troubleshooting abilities and we'll have to see if anyone else in the community can help. I'm sorry, I don't have the ability to reproduce your setup to help you further. You are correct: community support is the best we can offer you unless you're willing to change this to a supported cluster. Update: I've conferred with my colleagues and there is an issue with the latest VMWare ESX 6.5 and activation of Calm in Prism Central: it was identified in the [url=https://portal.nutanix.com/#/page/docs/details?targetId=Release-Notes-Calm-v58:top-known-issues-r.html]Prism Central 5.8 Release Notes: Known Issues[/url] section. The Calm team has a fix in code review and then it will be ready for release planning, so I can't give you a firm date yet. In the meantime, please see this Knowledge
[user=23540]weiyi[/user] Thanks for providing that information: nothing stands out immediately to me except external IPs not being defined. Multicluster on PC probably indicates that you deployed PC as a single instance, not with the scale-out option. Please check on two items: 1) On PE, can you define an Data Service IP? Calm uses this to store logs on Acropolis storage on the cluster. 2) Could you check that memory hot add is enabled for Prism Central VMs before "Enabling App Management," see: [url=https://portal.nutanix.com/#/page/docs/details?targetId=Nutanix-Calm-Admin-Operations-Guide-v58:nuc-install-configure-nutanix-calm-on-vmware-t.html]Enabling Calm on a Nutanix VMWare cluster[/url]? If you have already done both, then I'd recommend calling Nutanix Support at this time. --Mark
Hello [user=23540]weiyi[/user] , Yes, Calm inside of Prism Central has supported ESX workloads on and off Nutanix clusters since release 5.7 back in May, right before the Nutanix .Next US conference. "Enable App Management" is Calm! This paragraph has forward looking statements; verify Nutanix has shipped these features before making any additional purchasing decisions. You will see the Calm team drive the current "Self Service & Apps" experience into Calm over time, starting with the next major release targeted as Prism Central 5.9 before the end of the calendar year. You will see a continued convergence of Calm into Prism and alignment with other products, such as Beam for application total cost of ownership. Now, onto your question: it's hard to troubleshoot fully without more information, but it seems as if you have fresh Nutanix cluster with ESX, but something does not add up because Prism Central is not fully registered to PE.
