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.?  

Is there any specific requirement port speed on TOR Switch for Nutanix Cluster running NVME + SSD storage? Is still good running 10Gb Switch to cover NVME + SSD performance? Thanks

I would like to create a new scenario with Lenovo HW or modify one with NX HW to Lenovo but I don’t how I could that. Anyone could tell me if is it possible?

I have a requirement to deploy configuration  server in Nutanix cloud for DR scenario, Azure provides OVF template to deploy this server. But as nutanix doesn’t support OVF format i have extracted OVA file to .vmdk files and created disks with it. Created a new VM and attached these disks to it. But facing VM Boot up issues. Any walkthrough for deploying VM using OVA/OVF files.

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. 

CVM running but no route to host, installed in vmware workstation, advanced ip scanner indicated cvm is up but not running  

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  

Hi,Does anyone replace a failure capacity SATA HDD on Nutanix NX Series with same model HDD before? Is it possible/or compatiable? The NX Series already EOL!

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

I'm going to change Windows 10 to Windows 11, so I'd like to see if I can use the Nutanix Prism web console in my Windows 11 environment when I upgrade, so where can I find the documentation or content?

Hi, did anyone manage to use this voucher?

Hi, i am new to this technology and have a new school coming on board running 3 NX-1065-G7 hyperconverged running windows 2019 vms for the school, what i am looking for is a learning / training path that will set me in good stead to gain an understanding and have the ability to support the servers in a day to day running.

my NX nodes having eth0 & eth1 is 10 Gig /  eth2 & eth3 is 1 Gig.we have created new bridge br1 with eth2,eth3 uplinks and created new vlan (vlan 17 ) in br1 for DMZ traffic.command used -: acli net.create VLAN-DMZ vswitch_name=br1 vlan=17current scenario is default br0 is in under vs0. Query -: Do I need to make a vs1 (vSwitch1) for br1? 

Hi,I'm preparing my graduation project on HCI - Nutanix NX, and I'm stuck with the fundamental components of Acropolis AOS. In some documents, they discuss DSF + AMF + AHV, but in most documents and publications AMF is ignored.

I have question about prism central, if I have Nutanix frame configured  what happen if my prism central VM went down? noting that I have only one prism central VM.

I would like to apply Host-VM affinity/anti-affinity rules. Some of these referenced hosts are currently in maintenance mode.Am I able to apply these rules while the hosts are in maint mode? If not, am I correct in thinking that once the hosts are taken out of maint mode, then I can apply the affinity rules, and the system will apply these rules (migrating VMs etc. where it needs to)?

Note 1: After the force cleanup process is followed, all PC-PE registration information will be lost. Any configuration of the PE (Prism Element) cluster within Prism Central will also be lost permanently and cannot be recovered.Note 2: Before unregistering the cluster from Prism Central, any Nutanix Disaster Recovery (Leap) configuration for the cluster being unregistered should be removed from Prism Central. Refer to KB 12749 for more details.What is the impact of VM in the process of removing PC from PE?Will the CVM service be interrupted?Thank you

Hi, I have a trouble to enable Nutanix Calm when I try to deploy it, I checked NCC and everything run well but in Calm the Precheck failed: “ PC to 0005e2ce-d78a-2724-0000-00000000e308 host cluster health check is not OK. Please check if cluster is accessible from PC ”.My Prism Central version is 5.20.4.5 LTS - Starter License

Linux server requires NFS volume allocation. Volume allocation due to Nutanix Files configuration. The client company does not have a DNS server. In this case, I wonder if there is an error that can occur when DNS is set to an arbitrary domain name that does not exist.

I need to monitor Nutanix replication and one of the metrics is not having unprotected vms.Is there any way to list these VMs with nCLI or another command?

Sorry if I am asking a silly question. I would like to ask if I configured protection policy from Prism Central. I assume even PC is failed the replication should perform as is just that it would be appreciated if anyone could share some thoughts or documentation to support that.

I hate to duplicate questions, but the original was closed and I have yet to see an answer. Is it possible to schedule automated reboots/shutdowns with an AHV? Similar to what you can do in VMware vSphere with Scheduled Tasks: How to schedule a VM power state with AHV

I have started to code this but thought maybe someone might have already completed this. My issue is I have a windows server in AHV with 10 disk drives. When I get a call from my windows team to expand a drive they will give me the drive letter. However I cannot use that to map back to Nutanix AHV. So outside of coding a tool that will map these 2 systems is there a way to correlate what drive is what? I do not want to have to log into a VM every time I get this request if possible.
