Hi everyone, I got plenty of VM. some have NGT tools, some don’t. some are outdated.Is there a simple way to list NGT tools version/vm ?thanks for your tips or directions. Cheers from Tahiti.

Hello,I am conducting a test using NX-3050 equipmentI know it's an old Node-Model and I have previously installed it with AOS 5.20.2.1As you can see now, we are going to test the upgrade using LCM in AOS 5.10.11.1LCM was installed as shown using 2.5.0.2.32663 Dark-site​​​​​I uploaded the file 5.20.2.1 because I saw the opinion that if the AOS version for upgrade is EOS,it might not be displayed on the screenNo matter how long I wait for the LCM in the setting window, there is no screen, so should I reinstall it? I think I saw the opinion that the AOS version was modified because it was low, so is it impossible to update using the LCM DARK site? Thank you for reading the long article and I would really appreciate your opinion  

Hello All, I'm working with a customer on a new solution designthe customer has a VMware workload and we plan to put AHV,I want you to advise me on how I calculate the storage requirement, Let’s say the customer workload is about 170 TB how do i size the cluster storage Also, I have some questions related to storage sizesif I have 3 nodes clustereach node with 10 disks each disk 4 TB (numbers for examples only)that means total raw storage is 120 TBwe will go with RF2 which means 1 node is out of our usable capacity calculation So what is the usable capacity here after the 1 node for failure and the Raid used in the cluster creation, also what else should be conducted from the storage in storage planning?

Hello,I am certified ncp-mci 5.20 and ncm-mci, how to upgrade to 6? i saw many people took that certificate.

Hey,is there currently a free voucher for the NCA exam?I have already redeemed the voucher from: https://next.nutanix.com/education-blog-153/get-your-nca-or-ncp-mci-v6-5-certification-for-free-41217 for another certificate.Regards,Leo 

Hey Guys,For taking a Professional level certification, is it mandatory to have associate level certification?

We’re running 2 clusters which are pretty much configured the same running ESxi 7.02 AOS 5.20.4 LTS both running on nutanix hardware.  One cluster is totally fine no issues but the other you cannot create a virtual disk greater than 2Tb! The issue only came to light when we had to move a VM off to another non-nutanix host for a few days then when we went to vmotion it back it errored complaining about the disk being greater than 2Tb, it is its nearly 6Tb as its a fortinet analyzer. I’m pretty sure when the VM was sat on the nutanix cluster its disk was greater than 2Tb and it was thin provisioned with a capacity of 7Tb when it was created!  So you can’t move anything to any of the datastores that are greater than 2Tb and you also can’t create a new disk greater than 2TB.  Also if you take a look at the datastores details it says maximum VM disk size 2TB, on the other clusters datastore it says 62Tb. It's getting to be a bit of a pain as the fortinet analyzer is sitting on a box we want

When running foundation from the same network as the CVM/AHV host should be in, I’m getting this error. Phoenix Failed to load squashfs.img. I can’t ping the gateway, and it looks like during the bring up it’s unable to create bond0 with the NIC, which is 534FLR-SFP+. It’s like the link just doesn’t come up when booting into the rescue image.I’ve tried:Disabling the 4 port onboard NIC Pinging itself from ILO remote console (it works) Pinging the gateway and Foundation VM IP from ILO remote console (it fails) Installing ESXi manually on the server to confirm tagging/networking is set up properly, and it is Changing the IP of the foundation VM to another networkReally stuck hard. Any advice nutants? It’s like the rescue image doesn’tError MessageWaiting for eth0’s link to come up

Hi,I just want to ask if its possible to use the 1 GbE interface while using the 10 GbE for back up network in case the 10 GbE switches fails, if its possible how to set it up?

Hello Nutanix community, i have a question about compatibility between Cisco ESA C100V and Nutanix AHV?  

CVM On LACP networks, Physical switches use MLAG technology，CVM bandwidth performance cannot be improved, and the maximum can only be 10Gb. 

Wondering if it is possible to transfer a Nutanix cert to an alternate account? Since we cannot register Nutanix accounts with personal email addresses (Gmail, Hotmail etc) my Nutanix cert is linked to my Nutanix account with my current employer who I am finishing my employment with today. Since I’ll no longer have access to that email after today, how can I continue to access my Nuatnix account / my Nutanix certification?I do happen to have another Nuatnix account ready to use, but cannot see a solution. I am based outside of the US without the ability to call US phone numbers. I called the Nutanix support number available in my country but it went through to “technical support” who informed me they can only provide technical support and cannot transfer me to Customer Support - instead giving me a US phone number to call which I cannot use.. Given the time sensitivity I doubt I’ll get a solution in time but figured it’s worth asking the question here just in case.

Hello. I have a question about upgrading AOS and AHV.I understand that upgrading AOS and AHV requires restarting nodes one by one, so I need to calculate memory, CPU, storage, etc. and free up enough space.There are customers who are currently using more than 90% of cluster memory.cpu, there's plenty of storage.We recommended turning off underutilized VMs to free up memory capacity, but they said it was impossible.It also says that disabling virtual machine high availability reduces memory utilization to less than 60%.However, it is recommended that you disable virtual machine high availability because it is a feature for recovery in the event of a host failure.If you turn off this feature during an upgrade and an unexpected failure occurs during the process, it can be a problem, right?In conclusion, I would appreciate it if you could tell me the correlation between upgrade and virtual machine high availability.  

I have a 8 nodes nutanix with vSphere 7 deployed. I’ve created 2 new storage container with compression enabled and map to the nodes. I test to copy the file that i uploaded to the default container to the new storage container presented as NFS datastore...it was very slow. 5GB took 2hrs. Then i tried storage vmotion of a VM reside on the new datastore to another new datastore. A 10GB VM took 20 minutes. If storage vmotion from the default container to new datastore, it fails. 

How to Decrease AHV, AOS upgrade times. As per my experience, each component is taking more than 45 minutes to upgrade its own.

I want to migrate Prism Central VM AHV cluster to ESXi on Nutanix cluster, please suggest the easiest way to migrate with no impact.

HiIs there a way to setup an email alert when a user logs into Prism (Central and element) and an extension to this is there a way to send an email when a patch update is started and ends? ThanksEric 

buenas tardes, alguien sabe si es posbile saber el tiempo de apagado y/o de encendido de una VM dentro de Nutanix?

We have a scenario where we want to show session based stats for any particular VM. Using below API we can get the CPU stats for the whole VM.https://{{cluster_ip}}:{{port}}/PrismGateway/services/rest/v1/vms/{{uuid}}/stats?metrics=hypervisor_cpu_usage_ppm&intervalInSecs=60&startTimeInUsecs=1607965687547284&endTimeInUsecs=1607967487547284Is there any way or any API that can can give stats bases on machine sessions?

I try to deploy Nutanix in 3 nodes (Fujitsu) using Foundation VM , Every node have 4 NIC , 2 NIC to every switch , (Nexus 3548-x), IPMI connected to other CISCO switch We will install ESXi as hypervisor , The deployment fail , when i follow up in node console , it fail after creation bond and try to connect to foundation VM My question are :it should be connection between AOS to foundation VM IP ?what is best practices for configuration in two nexus switches and cisco switch , for example , all 10g in nexus switch are trunk ports , native vlan is cvm vlan … what i need more to do ?
