How do I stick to LTS ?

Hi @JeroenTielen this is clearly no my case , I am in LTS and STS is proposed as an upgrade (with a red alert, sure, but I have some colorblind in my team … so they may not notice)

how to connect guest vm to internet

Just plug your VM on a VLAN where there is a router connected to the internet. Then either use DHCP if there is some, or configure an IP address and set your router as gateway. That’s it.

How To Connecnt Guest VM To Internet (Windows)

The port of the node where the GUEST VM is installed is directly connected to the Internet-enabled LAN ... you should never plug directly on a node. You have to use your TOR switchs and define a VLAN, so you just put you VM on you VLAN and the VM see the router.I advice you to read about VLAN and general switch configuration before going futher.cheers.

Can you use the Shared IPMI Port instead of a Data port for imaging?

Hi, thank you for your detailed answer. My question is about whether I can do this: Connect one cable to the dedicated IPMI, and the other to the Shared IPMI (instead of a 10G data port)? I’m asking because I tried doing it in a greenfield deployment last week, and Foundation could not proceed (fatal error: waiting for installer to boot up) with the following error in Phoenix kernel: eth1 did not provide connectivity to (Workstation IP) I ended up using the 10Gb SFP port instead of the Shared IPMI, and it worked. I guess Foundation need to see (at least some of) the networks interfaces to setup the cluster. what you describe looks more like the phoenix process than the foundation process.Foundation process is dedicated to setup a whole cluster, Phoenix is dedicated to just image a node, so you can integrated it to an existing cluster, or just for recovery purpose.Using phoenix you can probably be able to image you nodes independently and after use foundation to create the c

Disk Does not Decrease its Capacity

Hi Kike, Nothing unusual here, deleted block (and VM) are kept by default for 30 days or regarding snapshots, Do you have snapshots ? Think to clear all your snapshot if you want to recover freed space.

Can i add the new hard disk to empty slot

no problem, but keep in mind that you should keep same disk size as others disks, and add the same numbers of disk to each node to keep balanced write against nodes.Note that you can add bigger disk in the case you want to replace your existing disks. ex : you have 2 disks of 4To to each node, you can replace (one by one) by some 6To (or whatever bigger) so at the end you have 2 disk of 6To to each node.

Security Policy for cvm (iptables,acl,ipfilter,tcp wrapper) please ㅠㅠ

hi junsu you can look here : in the Security Guide.https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Nutanix-Security-Guide-v5_20:sec-controller-virtual-machine-t.html there is possibility for hardening CVM access.Nutanix has been designed to be exposed, whenever is is set up on prem or on the Internet so there is not such a thing as limiting ip that can connect to cvm. However there is way to restrict such IP at the AHV host level or at cvm level, be carefull to not just cut yourself from your distant access.edit : updated the URL to the most recent version

How to Grant Prism Administrators Access to CVMs through SSH ?

I don’t known if it helps, but you can add a specific ssh-key to the cvm(s) into the nutanix or admin account, and remove the given key later. It will allow you to give temporary ssh access to some guys without giving them your admin password.

Is It Possible to Add a Pre-existing VMware Datastore to Nutanix in VMFS6 Format?

Hi @eku1s The recommended way to do so is to install move VM, connect it to your ESXi host and import VM directly. Using move, you can update your VM while migrating, so you have the right drivers in place.

I only use the rest API for processing JSON for my own needs. I have no idea for what your doing. my bet is that you may need a language to manipulate json record.regards.
