Is there any specific way or prerequisite to apply the Nutanix Clam license. I can see the license is available and free but when I select the quantity ( 1 Pack), it does nothing.

Hello all..is there a list with model number somewhere of the Nutanix supported NICs?  I am looking for the cheapest 1Gb dual NICs Nutanix supported that I can get from Amazon or ebay or the cheapest 10Gb..I was reading that supermicro Nic is supported but I don’t see model number so I was wandering if the Supermicro AOC-SG-12 is supported since that card cost about $35..my understanding is the CE and commercial support the same NICs now. My use case is CE for homelab. thanks 

Hi All,We have scheduled to perform a Nutanix Cluster upgrade.Existing Setup:3xDell XC730 XD-12 running on AHV 20170830.453 / AOS(5.15.3). This cluster is hosting around 50 VMs.Upgrade to:4* NX 8235 -G7-4215R -CMIs it possible to add the 4*NX to existing cluster and then remove 3xDell XC servers. We are trying to achieve minimum downtime here without major outage.Per Nutanix documentation https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details/?targetId=Hardware-Admin-Ref-AOS-v5_17%3Ahar-product-mixing-restrictions-r.html , it seems mixing hardware isn't feasible. Could you please confirm if there is any work around possible?Regards,

Im trying to create a playbook that on X alert posts to teams channel…. is this possible? I have tried a few methods but not having much joy. Method: POST  URL: https://outlook.office.com/webhook/blahblahblahlongstring user: blank Pass: blank Request body: I have tried setting json and tried using the built in parameters Alert: Source Entity Name Alert: Alert Name Alert: Creation Time Alert: Severity   request headers: blank or Content-Type: application/json     so am i just missing something about the syntax? Or is the rest api call for nutanix api’s only?    Thanks in advance. 

ハイパーバイザーに ESXi を使用した環境でバックアップ（スナップショット取得）を考えています。 対象の仮想マシンはシステム領域とそれ以外の領域を複数の vmdk ファイルに分割し、マウントして一つの仮想マシンを構成しています。 このような構成の仮想マシンで、各vmdkファイルを指定してスナップショットを取得することはできるのでしょうか？ VM単位のスナップショットを取得できることはわかっているのですが、vmdk単位のスナップショットを取得できるのかがよくわかりません。 下記のような ncli コマンドを見ると、vmdk ファイルを指定してスナップショットを取得できるような気もするのですが… https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Command-Ref-AOS-v5_19:acl-ncli-snapshot-auto-r.html ご教示のほど、よろしくお願い致します。

Hi folks!We’re implementing Nutanix Files and we are not sure how to handle following scenario:Let’s assume, we create some File Server with some Shares. We set the size of the File Server to 2TiB. Now we create a lot of share that are used by a lot of endpoints.The usage of the File Server is growing some dozens of GiBs a Month - now worries here. Suddenly some system/user is filling up space rapidly, let’s say 100GiB an hour for the sake of drama. Now, the Cluster wont warn us until it’s almost too late. Maybe this happens in the middle of the night of a holiday that is on a weekend while half of our staff is on vacation and the other half is somehow indisposed/slow/unwary.It would be cool to have some alert, that warns us from extreme usage growth. and it would be great to have some (limited) autogrow featureSo my question to the community: Is there something like that? I know the example is extreme. But from our experience something like that happens from time to time. And if it ha

On cvm, the cs and cluster start commands are output to the next screen.Hypervisor : ESXI 6.7U3AOS : 5.15.4What's the problem?

As seen in this attached screenshot, Prism Central appears to have lost track of this “running” task.  Updates of network security rules normally finish very quickly (I think might have clicked an apply button twice after editing a FLOW security policy during on-site FLOW training.)  Is this something only Nutanix Support can clear away? 

I just updated a cluster’s AOS and am now getting the warning:AHV version 20190916.360 is currently installed on host, while minimum compatible AHV version is 20190916.410But I cannot AHV without updating also AOS to 5.19.2 which would change my plan to STS (currently installed 5.15.5.1 LTS)So I have to ignore the warning and waiting for a compatible AOS LTS version, or should I change to 5.19.2 STS?

What problems or impacts can I have after upgrading the Prism Central to a version that is not compatible with the AOS of the sites that are managed by Prism Central?Will I have any unavailability to access the PE of the remote site via the web because of the version that is not compatible with Prism Central?For example I will update the PC to version pc.2020.11.0.1 and AOS of my PE will be in version 5.11.2 which by Nutanix matrix is not compatible. I cannot update the AOS of the EP at this time.

I have a server that no longer needs one of its 2TB disk. I know how to remove the disk from the VM but, how do I remove that VMDK from the Nutanix Storage container? Is there a way to browse it and then delete it?  2TB is a lot of space that I would like to reclaim.

Which node type does not deploy a Nutanix Controller VM. A bit confused with documentations available some say “Compute only” and other say “All Flash”One more question A vDisk is read by multiple VMs. The cluster creates immutable copies of the vDisk. What are these vDisk copies called.

Hi,we just upgraded our prism central instance to the most current community edition version of Nutanix (2020.09.16). We also upgraded our cluster successfully. For this to happen I had to unregister the cluster from prism central first (with the help of: https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA00e000000XeZjCAK). After everything was updated I wanted to register the cluster again in prism central, but after some time I get the error message “Error: Failed to create remote connection”. I found this KB article: https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA00e0000009BwxCAE and executed all the steps therein (which are mostly the steps I already had done), but the issue persists. On the prism central VM I can see the following entries in the “prism_gateway.log” file when trying to register the cluster: WARN 2021-05-12 15:17:55,410Z http-nio-0.0.0.0-9081-exec-8 [] commands.auth.PAMAuthenticationProvider.checkFailedAttempts:395 Failed to check th

I was trying to get AlienVault (OSSIM) to run on Nutanix, but I have hit a road block. I was able to get the install dialog to run after setting the boot to legacy bios. However, after install, It fails to boot.My questions, do any of you use any open source SIMS solution that works in Nutanix?I could accept a SIMS solution at a cost. However, after going through sales with LogRythim and splunk, I was frustrated because both of them incure log ingestion fees. We may have a good budget, but we are limited with our operational cost.Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

I’m asking about the version of VMFS datastore for ESXi hypervisor on Nutanix cluster. I’m trying to create new VM with a disk larger than 2 TB with no luck of success, after some google searches seems this issue could be due to VMFS3.
