Hi,How are we suppose to go about registering for the NCA 5.15 exam? I am not seeing the exam scheduler option in Nutanix University. Thanks!

Hello All,I have recently deployed Prism Central and I am trying to give team members access via their AD accounts. I have went through the roles and discovered I cannot add new members to the predefined roles; however, if I duplicate the roles I can add AD users and groups to the new roles. This works for me however when I duplicate a role such as the “Super Admin” role I am warned that not all permissions are going to apply to the new role and I would need to create the new role via CLI to get these permissions. Ok fine that makes some sense. But where is the documentation on how to do that? Can someone point me to the documentation to perform these role creation tasks via CLI?Thanks, Scott 

Hi all,Running AOS 5.10.5, i have changed my cluster from RF2 to RF3, including my main container and the “SelfServiceContainer”,however a week after the change I’m still seeing this error regarding extent groups,I believe that this is due to NutanixManagementShare still being RF2 (with no ability to change it, since its a systemmanaged container), or is there some other reason?

https://next.nutanix.com/how-it-works-22/network-segmentation-basics-38414It seems the network segmentation 2.1 doesn’t support the isolation physically between the backplane and management. So, it tries to isolate logically following this procedure.ISOLATING THE BACKPLANE TRAFFIC LOGICALLY ON AN EXISTING CLUSTER (VLAN-BASED SEGMENTATION ONLY)https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Nutanix-Security-Guide-v5_15:wc-network-segment-on-existing-cluster-wc-t.htmlAOS5.15.1 / ESXi 6.7u3 Standard vSwitch, vSwitch0 Port Gourp: Backplane Network, CVM Backplane Network (for CVM)it doesn’t recognize any port groups.The procedure doesn’t mention about the vSwitch0 or port group condition. Is there any information of this?Thx,

Are there plans to validate a version of VMware’s ESXi hypervisor that addresses recent vulnerabilities outlined here; https://www.vmware.com/security/advisories/VMSA-2020-0023.html The proposed version to address this threat is ESXi670-202010401-SG for existing 6.5 hosts or ESXi675-202010401-SG for existing 6.7 hosts. It appears that the latest json version for download from My Nutanix is 6.7.0 U3 - which is slightly older than the version being proposed to resolve the vulnerability. Thanks!

Anyone experience issues with Windows VMs, Server 2016 and 2019 in my case, not respecting a “Guest Shutdown” action if there hasn’t been any console activity for a while? This occurs with a Prism GUI shutdown or an API call to v2/vms/{uuid}/set_power_stateIs there a setting within Windows that is preventing this or is it a Nutanix issue? Thanks.

Did partners lose the ability to manually configure nodes?  I need to see available procs for a model and all of a sudden I don’t see a way to look at any manual configuration options.  This isn’t good.

I am having issues editing the scenarios, I’m working on with the below error message: Advanced scenarios can only be edited by Advanced users. Basic users can view the Advanced scenarios in read-only mode.This editing and modifications worked for me last week, not sure what happened.

Hi.I’ve been trying to find out if I can use X-Ray to test other platforms (VMware and Hyper-V) or if I need to export the test (the “Four corners” in my case) and then use Curie to test the other platforms.There isn’t a lot of information on X-Ray and other platforms to be found though.Thanks.

Hi, Im planning to add 2 more blocks NX-3060-G6 with 2 nodes on each block. Currently i have 2 Block Nutanix NX-3060-G6 with 2 Nodes on each block.Current topology is 2 Block nutanix connected to Cisco 2960X with all eth interfaces connected to it. My question is, In NX-3060-G6 there are 3 Ethernet interfaces, 1 for MGMT (IPMI) and there are other 2 eth interfaces and 2 SFP+. For networking purpose,Do we need to use those 2 eth interfaces from each node in order to work? Or do we need to use only 1 eth interface only on each node? We’re adding 1 more switch Juniper EX4600, so if we need to use those 2 eth interfaces, can we separate them? 1 Eth interface to Cisco 2960X and the other goes to EX4600? Can i have different VLAN on each interfaces (exclude MGMT) that i connect to switch?Sorry if my question isn’t clear enough. But i hope you do understand it. Thank you.NX-3060-G6Networking Topology (Just for Eth Interfaces)

Hello, I have passed my NCP-MCI 5.15 exam today. Please guide me where to downloads my exam certification.

ESXi 7.0 requires a minimum of 4 GB of physical RAM. Provide at least 8 GB of RAM to run virtual machines in typical production environments.4GB only for the HOSTAnd about AHV?What is the minimum memory for AHV only?, without CVMs and VMs

Hi All, Does anyone know if it’s possible to pass variables into the ‘Custom Script’ / cloud-init section, when creating a VM in AHV via Prism Element?Ideally, I’d like to use the REST API to create (clone) a VM from a template, and pass a ‘Custom Script’ perhaps from an ADSF path, that is able to configure the guest’s Hostname / FQDN based off the VM’s name specified in the REST API call.IPAM and some basic cloud-init config is working, just trying to determine the best way to set the hostname!

Whenever I take snapshots from Prism Central it shows under Recovery point but not under Snapshot. Not sure, if both are same Thing. Also, recovery point give an option to “Replicate” , whereas Snapshot give an option to “Restore”….are both same?

We have added Dell Switches to see the Interface information and where our AHV hosts are connected through Network Tab.But, I am able to see Interface only on One Switch for one host, not on others. I see below. Is there anything we are missing.  

 Our datacenter experienced a power outage yesterday and when power was restored Nutanix powered up and everything was operational (Yay!). I've been attempting to find the setting that told the nodes to power up after an event like that rather than stay powered off. On desktop systems I know the BIOS has settings for power events like that but cannot find it in the IPMI web interface. Is there somewhere else I should be looking? Thanks.

I scheduled my NCP 5.10 using my Nutanix partner voucher. The exam is retired and the system cancelled my exam. I’m trying to find my voucher again to schedule an exam again for NCP 5.15, but unable to find my voucher in my partner portal. Please help

Hello,i have some questions regarding “Switch stacking”1-) Is it possible to use " 2 stacked switches " as TOR with AHV? there will be a problem if we use this configuration?2-) The best practice is to use 2 Stacked switches or 2 individual switches?We plan to use Active-Backup configuration and conect SFP to Switch1 and the other SFP to Switch2I am not a network specialist so i am not sure if both switches are stacked, and we plug 1 SFP to SW1 and the other SFP to SW2, the active passive configuration will work
