Hi@AnishWalia20 ,As per previous query, there was no update for clone permission,But now , on current version of PC 2021.9.0.2 , clone permission is there for ad user, but my query here is to clone  other user’s vm or admin  created vm. This task i am executing via REST API V3 as per previous query.There is project A(having multiple users) with allow collaboration option, in which ,As a user-A,I am able to clone a vm created by user-B ,But cloned vm owner property is same as User-B.I want to change owner property also while cloning vm via api.After cloning, vm should be owned by user-A.Please let mr know if there is some method to do so.

Hello All,          I am working on a powershell script to create VM’s and I am having an issue with the following piece. $boot=New-NutanixObject BootConfig$boot.uefi_boot=$true$boot.secure_boot=$true$boot.boot_device_type='DISK'$boot.disk_address=$vmDisk.vm_disk_clone.disk_address The error I am seeing is “Boot disk index must be specified” I used the following to make the $vmDisk variable you are seeing at the bottom of the trouble code. $diskImage = (Get-Image | Where-object {$_.name -eq $vmdisks})$diskImage = Get-Image -IncludeVmDiskId -ImageId $diskImage.UUID                $cloneDiskAddress=New-NutanixObject VMDiskAddress$cloneDiskAddress.vmdisk_uuid=$diskImage.vm_disk_id$vmDiskClone=New-NutanixObject VMDiskSpecClone$vmDiskClone.disk_address=$cloneDiskAddress$vmDisk=New-NutanixObject VMDisk$vmDisk.is_cdrom=$false$vmDisk.vm_disk_clone=$vmDiskClone  I know it is something simple I just don’t know what it is. I appreciate any help. Thanks,Scott

Dear Nutanix community,Wondering if instead of a 10G/1G data port, you can use the 10Gb Shared IPMI port for Foundation imaging?Regards,

I received this answer a few days ago[Just plug your VM on a VLAN where there is a router connected to the internet. Then either use DHCP if there is some, or configure an IP address and set your router as gateway. That’s it.]but Is there anyone who can explain in more detail?I am currently configuring guestvm with windows10The network settings are like this The port of the node where the GUEST VM is installed is directly connected to the Internet-enabled LANOr should I change the settings inside Windows vm? It is composed of dhcp

Hi everyonePlease help me with this case:1- I have two nutanix blocks, each 3 nodes, I have only one core switch and I want to manage and see all nodes in the same cluster, I don`t have prism center.2-I want to install ESXI on all the nodes, if the configuration goes right!, when I want to manage VMs (create, delete, .. i.e.,) should this be done through the prism or from the esxi?Appreciating any help from you guys.

Hello fellow Nutanix fans,We have a three-node cluster in a DR location. This DR cluster has less capacity than the primary site which has resulted in us exceeding the resilient capacity of the DR cluster.To remedy this situation, we decided to replace four 8TB HDDs with four 12TB HDDs in each node. Today we removed one drive from a node in Prism UI and waited approximately four hours before the system reported it was safe to remove the drive. During this time, Prism reported that data was lowering on the drive. The cluster showed about 700MB/s of throughput during this rebuild, which seems pretty really good for a cluster of this size. We removed the 8TB HDD and inserted the 12TB HDD. The rebuild did not initiate until we ran NCC. By default, NCC runs every 24 hours so, eventually the rebuild would have started but, we wanted to see it get started.We watched the rebuild run for a while after it got underway. The system is writing around 80MB/s to the replacement drive. At this rate (2

Hey Guys, first time working with VMware installed on Nutanix.  I am getting ready to install 7.0.2u, but I need some clarification first.I am unable to find the correct Customized Dell Binaries for 7.0.2u from VMware. Even reached out to support and they are no help.  Every other version I can get the binaries for. Anyway I am just wondering is it required for me to use the 1 click upgrade in Nutanix to update my ESXi hosts or can I use update manager in vCenter?

Hi all!I’m writing a runbook with tasks that needs to use different endpoints from different Nutanix Projects. This seems to be impossible, so I want to check in with the community to see if I’m doing something wrong. :)I can create an endpoint without “assigning” it to a specific project, but this doesn’t matter since I have to define a project when creating a runbook. This means that I can only use endpoints that are assigned to the project the runbook is using.An endpoint can only be assigned to one project so assigning an endpoint to multiple projects is not an option.One possible (as well as very clunky and cumbersome) workaround would be to create identical endpoints for every project that needs access to it, but all endpoints must be uniquely named which makes this even more of a nightmare.Is what I want to do at all possible?Thanks.

I know this can be done with the NX hardware using the IPMITOOL utility pre-installed, but we’re starting to use HPE hardware and I wondered if anyone knew how to change the iLo administrator login password via cmdlet?  We’ve scripted this for NX line and looking to do the same with HPE’s as a part of our deployment scripting.

I want to connect the guest VM to the Internet, what should I consider?

Any nutanix free voucher i can use for my NCP MCI exam?

Hi,New Nutanix user here so please forgive me my ignorance. I created a new VM in Prism Element and then (using this guide) used the Convert to Template function in Prism Central. So far so good. However, the converted VM still shows up under VMs in Element/Central. Can I now delete this VM? (We’re running just one cluster.) info:AHV version Nutanix 20201105.2267Prism central: pc.2022.4 Kind regards,Thomas

Please your support, I have two nutanix servers each is 3 node cluster, how I can connect them so they appear as a single cluster, should I connect them via a physical switch? Second question is I have vSphere license which I want to install on the clusters, how should I do that?

Anybody has the correct guidance or URL from where i can download the ESXi 6.7 u3 customized image file for Nutanix NX-WDT series node to build the AOS 3 node cluster 

After update windows 10 in place, i can’t delete the balloon.sys file of nutanix drivers inside windows old; i can rename but not delete.Any idea?

Hi Guys,We have 3x Nutanix clusters in North America and Singapore all with daily alert as below:“The host (x.x.x.x) is not synchronizing with any NTP server. This might occur if none of the configured NTP servers are available or you are currently experiencing network instability determined by the high offset/high jitter.”TAC telling us have to replace with Linux OS based NTP services to resolve this issue.Is there any solution or workaround to make NTP sync with MS NTP properly eq. patching etc. ?

Hi everyone, I have made différents test to install Windows server VM either 2022 and 2019 specifically on scsi disk emulation, but I didn’t succeed. It always ends in a bsod or in a infinite wait for partitionning or writing to the scsi disk.however installing on sata is direct with no problems.I am using last virtio drivers from ISO here: https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/latest-virtio/on AOS 5.20.So I may do something wrong, or use some bad drivers, so please if you’re able to give me directions to successfully install windows server on scsi disk please do.

Hello dear Nutanix community,Just wanted to check, does the IPMI port on NX servers offer a UI for server health monitoring/management and temperature/fan stats like iDRAC for Dell XC servers or HP iLO for HP?Thank you.

Hello, We are trying to find out the level or bandwidth of the iSCSI traffic that Analytics requires. This is because we have allocated Analytics in a different network than the CVMs (Data Service IP) so the traffic will be managed by the firewall. We don’t want to overload the firewall with this kind of traffic that could affect to the rest. Any experience with it?. I haven’t been able to find this kind of detail in the documentation. Thank you!

Hi There,So I made a stupid mistake and removed 2 x eth interfaces from all 3 nodes within the only virtual switch on my cluster. This was within Prism Element. I can still access AHV via IPMI, can no longer access Prism Element. Is there a way to add the eth interfaces back onto the virtual switch via AHV/AOS through the cmdlets?Cheers in advance.Adam 

Hello everyone,I currently have several old VMs that have been turned off for more than 2 years. No one in my workplace can tell me or remember what are they for. I am considering deleting them (to release storage), but before doing that is there something I should check before? Could those VMs be connected with online VMs in anyway for production?Could I take a useful snapshot, even though I will delete the VM afterwards?
