Dears:We will do “Test Failover” in Prism for a recovery plan. My question is: How to know "Test Failover" brings which recover point for Disaster Recovery (formerly Leap)?The latest available recovery point? The first available recovery point?

Hi all, greetings from me🙋🏻We scheduling to upgrade the AHV and AOS to the latest version, but i have some questions as below :1. could direct upload (dark site) method upgrade the bundle files at the same time or it should perform one by one bundle files upgrade, in this case is AHV and AOS bundle files ?2. if we upgrade it sequentially, what happen after one of the software is upgraded ? will it trigger an alert ? because what i know is the AHV and AOS version need to be same (compatible). regardless, after that we will still upgrade the version to a compatible version.i already read this documents, In the document, it is not explained that we can upgrade AOS and AHV at the same time using direct upload method; it only explains each component separatelyhttps://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Life-Cycle-Manager-Dark-Site-Guide-v2_4:Fetching%20LCM%20Software%20Update%20Bundles%20with%20Direct%20UploadThank you, I hope to receive the best answers from all of you who

Hi,I used calm vm 3.7.2.2, it worked fine for a couple of days but now I receive error when deploy a blueprint and also when I tried to delete or soft delete the existing one.Nothing logged.  

I posted last year about moving PC from a non-nutanix cluster running ESX to a nutanix cluster running ESX but we didn’t do the work at the time.  Now the goalposts have moved a little, or will be and I think things will be a little bit more complicated!So to recap;currently PC (pc.2022.6.0.9) runs on a non-nutanix cluster ESX 7.xwe have 2 nutanix clusters running ESX 7.xwe will be purchasing a new cluster which we intend to run AHV onwe will then migrate all the VM’s from the two nutanix esx clusters to the new AHV clusterwe will possibly also be migrating our native Azure VM’s to Nutanix NC2 in Azure.  We want to move our current PC to the new AHV cluster once its purchased. So the question is how? I was thinking of using MOVE. AIso note we AREN'T running microservices on our PC 

Morning All, I’ve just commissioned a new cluster using AOS 6.8.0.1 in an air-gapped environment. Prism Element and Prism Central only shows storage in “physical” capacity and usage etc. I’d ideally like the logical view available also, anyone seen this before, is there an easy fix? Thanks in advance

Tried getting there from “Files” link in main demo.nutanix.com portal, or from the “Files Console” link underneath Files.  This doesn’t affect Files Analytics or Data Lens, except any links that take you to the Files Console will prompt.The admin creds provided don't work.

I have just completed the initial deployment for the Nutanix-CE on a Single Node. Upon running cluster status command i see several services are down. Attached is a log, can anyone point me in the right direction.  nutanix@NTNX-6c98f74b-A-CVM:10.0.250.91:~$ cluster -s 10.0.250.91 --redundancy_factor=1 create2024-05-30 03:12:58,346Z INFO MainThread cluster:2943 Executing action create on SVMs 10.0.250.912024-05-30 03:13:01,416Z INFO MainThread cluster:1007 Discovered node:ip: 10.0.250.91        rackable_unit_serial: 6c98f74b        node_position: A        node_uuid: 56b8d0d2-5fb8-4f69-9630-3b2c8a3938b22024-05-30 03:13:01,416Z INFO MainThread cluster:1025 Cluster is on arch x86_642024-05-30 03:13:01,417Z INFO MainThread genesis_utils.py:8077 Maximum node limit corresponding to the hypervisors on the cluster (set([u'kvm'])) : 322024-05-30 03:13:01,424Z INFO MainThread genesis_rack_utils.py:50 Rack not configured on node (svm_ip: 10.0.250.91)2024-05-30 03:13:01,425Z INFO MainThread cluster

Hi Everyone, Does anyone have output of below two OS commands of RHEL 9 machine in Nutanix prism central. lsscsi --scsi_id sfdisk -d /dev/sda I don’t have any RHEL 9 test VM in my prism just wanted to know the output to play around some project. Quick help is appreciated.

Hello folks,There is a requirement to configure Oracle RAC in a Nutanix environment.The hypervisor will be used with AHV, and license it plan to use is NCI Starter.It appears to be possible to implement this by using the Nutanix Volumes functionality to reference the Shared Disk as an iSCS target to the internal Guest OS.In the past, there was no cost for internal use with Nutanix Volumes, but now with the new license format, will an additional NUS license be required? Or is a separate NUS license not required for internal use?https://www.nutanix.com/products/cloud-platform/software-optionsFrom this link, it looks like that's not necessary.. Thank you

I have expanded the existing block by adding two 1065-G8 nodes, each equipped with three HDDs and two SSDs. However, the new nodes, along with the HDDs and SSDs, are not being recognized, and there appears to be no power supplied to them. I am currently seeking Nutanix documentation on hardware installation but have not found relevant information yet. any idea?  

Hi Everyone,In case of scenario like had a Source VM (name:TestVM) and cloned a new VM from the source VM and named cloned VM (name: TestVM) same as Source VM (name:TestVM). Now will i be able to poweron both the VM’s at once ? 

Hello team,Always in learning Nutanix that’s totally new for me, I performed some tests today. One of those was to remove a disk to check if system will still be up. And… no :)All the CVM is crashed because it don’t find the removed disk.I have a Nutanix CE with a single node cluster. Is Nutanix storage pool not working as a RAID (1 or 5?) by default? Is there something to configure? Coming from VMWare, I make the comparison. On my ESXi I can lost one disk as I’m protected by the RAID-5 of the Raid-controller. Should I also use a RAID-5 for Nutanix? I read that disk must be in RAID-0 and Nutanix will protect it. How protect my single node cluster from a single disk failure?I certainly misunderstand or misconfigure something. Thanks for you help ! PS: The disk I removed was not one of those declared for the CVM during the installation, it’s a “Data” disk. 

Why can't I add a new folder？

Is there a way to fetch the efficiency state for VMs (Bully, Over Provisioned, Constrained, Inactive VM, Good) using API requests?"

Hi again.So i did my fresh installation, and at long last the password worked.Now, i can access the https://ip-of-cvm:9440, but only using “Internet Explorer”Any other browser will say something like this:“IP” usually uses encryption to protect your information. This time when Microsoft Edge tried to connect to “IP“, the site returned unusual and incorrect credentials. This can happen when a hacker tries to impersonate “IP” or a Wi-Fi login screen has disconnected. Your information is still safe because Microsoft Edge disconnected before any data was exchanged.You can't visit “IP” right now because the site has sent encrypted credentials that Microsoft Edge can't process. Network failures and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will probably work again later. And using “Internet Explorer” it seems like a lot of virual elements arent displayed correctly.

Hi.So this is my first installation of Nutanix, and it is kicking my behind.I have done the installation, and i want to connect to the CVM, but it doesent accept the default password.https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Nutanix-Clusters-AWS:aws-clusters-aws-using-prism-element-web-console-log-in-t.htmlI have tried root, admin nutanix and password “nutanix/4u” “Nutanix/4u”. So, what is the default password when SSH the first time to the CVM? Best RegardsJens.

Hello,I am desperate, I have 2 disks and the USB stick with the ISo on my server.If I now want to install Nutranix, I get to the disk selection, but even if I assign the disks to the respective letters, only Phoenix ISO is still mounted at the endThen the install aborts and I can go back to the disk selection.If I enter H,C, or D, the system says either I need SSD's, or I must have 2 disks, which I have.Do I need ESXI on the server, not really if I use the AHV version?

Ok, let’s get straight into the topic. On one of our VMs, we had 3 local disks and 5 NICs and we intended to remove 4 of the 5 NICs, which are no longer necessary. Instead of deleting the NIC in the last row, a disk in the last row has been deleted and no, a snapshot of the VM has unfortunately not been created. Is there any possibility to recover the deleted VM disk from this specific VM with AHV/CVM command line? Thanks in advance for any help! Regards,Didi7

Hi,how do you think about migration of a single MS Exchange Server incl. its database via Move?I know that is not recommended but there are some technical facts for?In the past I’ve migrated a lot of MS SQL servers via Move without problems (migration offline while vm was powered off - virtio drivers were installed in a previous step).kind regards,Thomas 

Hi,I successfully deployed three nodes as VMs in my VMware nested environment without any issues. All are pinging each other. CVMs are also pingable from each other.But when I create cluster from a CVM, cluster creation failed, medusa and its below listed services are having DOWN status. Please help.Regards,Gurdeep Sandhu 

what are we getting from nutanix rather than using vmware. I have few questions.how’s the license scheme in nutanix. what are the backups & recovery methods in nutanix. what type of softwares & products that supports with nutanix vm backup process. as an example in vmware backups. *Synology vmware backup * Qnap vmware backup * Veeam vmware backup & replication * Comvault vmbackup *Acronis vmware backup. How replication work in nutanix How High Availability feature work in nutanix. How vm Live/PowerdOff Migration work in nutanix what mechanism is use in nutanix while comparing to vmware vMotion what type of converters are use in nutanix. Ex: vCenter Converter in vmware what is the snapshot mechanism in nutanix.Thank You.

Can I also set the system so that I no longer need the 2nd USB stick?now the system needs this as a boot medium

A few of my colleagues took it last week and weren't charged anything, but when I attempted to make an appointment, it was asking for $199. Any vouchers available
