I’m trying to understand the Acrpolis OS interaction with the other components, i know that Acrpolis OS is the data plan and Prism is the management plan. Also, AOS is installed as a CVM. But im still confused about Prism. So, is Prism part of AOS and run inside CVM, or it’s a separated component ?

hello @all,I tried to create a VM with a vdisk on a specified storage_container via APIv3. The JSON I entered:{ "api_version": "3.0", "metadata":{ "kind":"vm" }, "spec": { "cluster_reference": { "kind": "cluster", "uuid": "<uuid>" }, "name": "<name>", "resources": { "disk_list": [ { "storage_config": { "storage_container_reference": { "kind": "storage_container", "uuid": "<uuid>", "name": "<name>" } } }, { "data_source_reference": { "kind": "image", "uuid": "<uuid>" } }, { "disk_size_mib": 10000 } ], "memory_size_mib": 4096, "nic_list": [ { "nic_type": "NORMAL_NIC", "is_connected": true, "ip_endpoint_list": [ { "ip_type": "DHCP" } ], "subnet_reference": {

Ladies/Gents,Second time this happens. First time it did, I did not know how to fix this and did a reinstall. This time I am trying to find a way to avoid going down the full reinstall route…The issueAfter a power failure, in my area, the power may come back for like 5-60 seconds and then off again. This may happen once or twice after the power failure. In that case, what happens, is the AHV seems to mark the two NVMe drives as not available (I have one SSD, 120GB Western Digital booting AHV - so boot drive, and two Samsung EVO 1TB) and due to that, CVM and all VMs are gone.Booting off a USB stick with Linux Mint we can see the drives listed: All I can find is info that requires the CVM, what is gone in this case…So how can this be fixed? Is it a matter of booting with the Nutanix CE USB and doing a repair? Is there something that can be done on AHV (what of course I do have access to) that will 'unflag' the disks as bad (what they are not - if I do reinstall the whole thing and start

Hi experts,Do i need an external webcam to take the exam? Is not that of the notebook enough?Thanks

Hello, warriors of the digital ageCould you help a beginner in trouble? I took an internal snapshot yesterday to prepare for a problem moving nodes from an existing cluster to another cluster The previous one was done well, and the snapshot was about 1.8gb, but I found that even though I deleted the snapshot, I still had about 1tb of capacity leftI checked if the data was increased on another vm, but it didn't, so I think it's because of the snapshotErasing the snapshot doesn't reduce the capacity. What should I do?Where should I check first?AOS 5.20.3.5 / ESXI7.0 u2a  

i wants to Migrate VMs from AHV cluster to AHV Cluster, my Source AHV Cluster running on AOS 5.20.0.1 LTS and destination cluster running on 5.20.3.5 LTS, so can configure Data protection and migrate VMs from source ahv cluster to destination ahv cluster with mismatch AOS version.?

Hello Team, We are trying to migrate Fortisiem VMs ( Collectors & Supervisors ) from VMWARE to AHV using Move but facing Authentication Failed issue. We verified and we have root access to the VMs and all the rights on the 2 VMs.  Also, the distribution of VMs are Redhat 4.4.7-23). Maybe it’ s a problem of Os compatibility, what do you all think.

Hi, Im trying to understand how a Nutanix node works fine even if it’s connected to two switches not in stack. And i found that only one interface is enable when using the active-backup mode, but when im checking on the switches i fount that both interfaces are up. So, im asking if there is a way to check which interface is actif from AHV or CVM.     

We are planning for migrate using Nutanix move from ESXi to AHV.Does it require local admin credentials for migrations for any account with root preveliges is fine.I know the appliance will try to install VirtIO drivers and uninstall vmware tools.But can it be by passed or local admin access is required during migration.Also have another question on Domain controller and Citrix vms running on the vmware ESXi.Are there any pre-requisites to be done before migration. ThanksSriram

When a virtual machine is created and a name is given, this does not necessarily reflect the operating system’s computer name.  Is there a way via the Prism API v2 to get not only the name as define in Prism but also the name assigned to the OS?Neither of these return the OS computer name:/vms/vms/{uudi}The Nutanix Guest Tools are installed.Is it possible via the API v2 (or even via the API v3) to get the actual OS computer name?ThanksGary
