Hi all, Local Replication is a process in which multiple copies of data are stored within a storage container. These copies exist for fault tolerance. Snapshots are placed locally on the same cluster as the source VM. Thus, If a physical disk fails, the cluster can recover data from another copy....
Configuring data protection and disaster recovery solution in your Nutanix environment is seamlessly simple and interesting. What if you have configured a remote site and have configured all the settings but still you are not sure regarding the configuration. Have you configured the vstore mapping...
A traditional Nutanix cluster requires a minimum of three nodes, but Nutanix also offers the option of a two-node cluster for ROBO implementations and other situations that require a lower cost yet high resiliency option. Unlike a one-node cluster (see Single-Node Clusters), a two-node cluster can s...
Every once in a while due to network infra structure changes or because you have to physical move the cluster to another location, you may have to modify the Cluster IP. This includes CVM, Hypervisor and IPMI ip addresses, netmask and default gateways Unfortunately this operation requires taking...
Foundation is how we build and configure Nutanix clusters and many customers would prefer to make use of more advanced network technologies like LACP to improve the cluster performance and provide redundancy. LACP increases bandwidth, provides graceful degradation as failure occurs, and increases a...
We plan to implement VMware App Volumes in our View Horizon VDI. In the Nutanix solution design example they use separate datastores/containers for Desktops, App Stacks and Writeable volumes. Is there any advantage in creating separate datastores or can all use one single datastore? Also is there...
If you are replicating data through DR (Data Replication page in Prism), then you have setup schedules for snapshots so they can be copied to the remote site on scheduled time. When you select a “snapshot” filed in one of the protection domains you created in the Prism UI, one of the fields is “Re...
Hi, We want to throttle replication bandwidth. In the Remote Site config in Data Protection, the option is to throttle B/W in MBps. Is this Mbps (megabits per second) or MB/s (Megabytes per second)? The unit implies megabytes per second (i.e. the "B" is capitalised), but that is normally a unit of...
With each new release, Kubernetes becomes more powerful and complex to deploy and manage. As a result, enterprise organizations undertaking cloud native projects are compelled to seek out solutions such as Nutanix Karbon and Nirmata which can simplify the configuration, deployment, and management of...

We have already mentioned some helpful resources relevant to SNMP configuration. This time we will take a look at examples, logs location and connectivity testing. Important:Nutanix appliances support only SNMP v2c and v3 (support for v2c in AOS 5.5 and higher). Starting from AOS version 4.1, auth-t...
Hello, Lately I have been adding the Nutanix SCOM Management Pack version 2.4.0.0. From the start on it worked fine as I handed over the Cluster information via Nutanix Cluster Discovery. But now, a few weeks later, SCOM will not display any performance data of the clusters anymore. I am not able...
Hi I have a concern with the data resilience in Nutanix Cluster about rebuild the data in 2 scenarios. When a node is broken or failure, then the data will be rebuilt at the first time, the node will be detached from the ring, and I can see some task about removing the node/disk from the cluster....
