5 Essential Tips for Maximizing Your Experience at Nutanix .NEXT for Bloggers
Yes, as of now, there is no way for protection domains to pick up new VM's when they are created and add them to an existing protection domain.
We use it separately for DR Replication for vm's that go from esxi cluster to an AHV cluster. We don't have the nutanix guest tools on all of vms that run on ESXi, but if they are being replicated to a cluster running AHV,we can just install the virtio drivers. Also if you are building images the you need the VirtIO drivers to get he image to boot, but the guest tools are installed after the vm is created from an image, as in our experience the nutanix guest tools are not image friendly.
You could do a couple of things. IPV6 is used to discover new nodes. You could download the foundation offline applet to see if your new nodes show up. You would need a vm/server in the same vlan as your new/existing nodes. You may also need the bonjour service on that vm/server so it can see those ip address. You can also find a program called bonjour browser, that will show you the ipv6 devices on the vlan instead of the foundation applet. If the nodes can''t be seen via IPv6 I don't think you care going to be able to discover them.
If ACI creates the dvSwitches in VMware then nutanix I would think nutanix should Handel it just fine, since esxi/vSphere are running like they would on any hardware. We use dvSwitches in our esxi/vSphere environment on. Nutanix just like we would on any hardware.
