Cheers mutahir, that's what I expected to hear.
You’re better off with something with a high spec whether it be CPU, MEM or disk capacity. Might be best to get in touch with your account manager to help you right-size and look at what other benefits that can be had (faster disks, better CPU etc), they’re especially good at helping your get best bang for buck. Hope this helps @pjoy
Just an update on the resolution. Nutanix support was able to work around this by manually installing ESXi then Phoenix. We suspect that the original problem was due to our network requiring a vLAN to be configured but the Host Repair wizard doesn’t allow for a vLAN to be defined hence the manual install route.
WIth a recent experience with a similar problem that’s happened to me in a production environment, I would say that it’s faster to rebuild the node. This was the answer given to me by Nutanix support that it would have taken longer to troubleshoot the issue like it is now in your case. Sorry, not much help here but if we were to put it to a vote, i’d say “rebuild it” PS. i also agree that the repair host boot device option does nothing :)
If you’re interested in taking the exam for free, Here’s the code: NTX119F20 To claim it, head to the NCP Exam Registration page. It will work for any version of the Nutanix Certified Professional (NCP) exam. The code expires on Wednesday 30th September 2020. Code seems to be reusable and may be used more than once.

Thank You @proyoung . This post is what helped me figure out how to change permissions per user per share. Only other info I found was here: https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Acropolis-File-Services-Guide-v20:acr-file-share-assign-permission-t.html which isn’t as detailed as your post. Does anyone know whether the steps for assigning permissions has improved? Seems unusual and disconnected to create the share in Nutanix then have to open a Windows MMC console to configure the user level permissions or even need to do it via a cmdline.Would have expected to be able to do all this from within Prism/Prism Central console.
I logged in just to say “I Agree”. We’ve had to deal with this issue for at least 12 months now with several tickets to support to clean up the partitions or fix the log rotations. I’m told that it’s a known bug. I see there a 2021.8 release now but I can’t update to this because i’m out of space and can’t download the installer.“Not enough disk space in x.x.x.x for saving /home/nutanix/software_downloads/prism_central/pc.2021.8-f948d198de58b1b1e511431dbef0b34d20c82739-x86_64.tar.gz, 11.88 GiB needed, but 10.21 GiB usable”
Thanks Primzy, So is it possible to run AHV without AOS? Where is the free hypervisor? CE?
Know of any examples of AHV being run without AOS? What im finding is that while AHV is being flouted as a free hypervisor, AOS is where the real smarts are.
I must say that the marketing team has done a brilliant job of selling AHV as a free hypervisor 😆To provide some context for my question, we are taking a serious look at moving our NX clusters over from ESXi to AHV and was looking into cost savings and feature comparisons of AHV vs ESXi.Thanks for the responses Primzy.
Thanks DenisF. So if AOS is the smarts behind Nutanix for all the self healing, compression, dedupe, resiliency, HA etc... can it be run on any hypervisor? Or only AHV?
Any chance you’re running Trend Micro Deep Security on the offending RHEL VM as well? We had this issue with the RHEL VM freezing and it was because the Trend public certificates weren’t registered in the UEFI interface.If you are running Trend DSM, take a look at this:https://help.deepsecurity.trendmicro.com/20_0/on-premise/agent-linux-secure-boot.html
Yes you can. When performing the vMotion, at the ‘select storage’ step, just choose ‘thin provision’ for the virtual disk format type.
