Hello all, i have managed to configure the 3 node cluster with AHV and all of the were working at first but after 2 days one cvm has been down can’t communicate with others.i have tryied to fix it but i couldn’t.both the AHV and host ip does reply for ping but the CVM dosen’t.i have run the NCC and got the log but it only says there is a duplicate ip but when i check for duplicate ip there is no duplicate ip in the configuaration. i have attached the NCC report incase you want to see it.any help will be greatly appretiated. thank you in advance.

Are there any recommendation for protecting Prism Central - I’m actually using PC Scaleout so have 3 PCVM’s and am curious if I should place these in a Metro or Async Protection Domain in the event that we perform a datacenter failover.I know that this cluster wouldn’t be critically needed in such a scenario but it would be nice to have. Any pro’s/con’s to using either PD type (Metro vs Async) for this?

Hello all,Is it possible to install the french version of Windows server 2016 using nutanix foundation ?I wonder this because in the iso whitelist, I only see english versions of windows server 2016 as supported versions.Thanks.

Good afternoon, all!I’m setting up a Move project to migrate some VMs from Hyper-V to AHV. In the 3.6 Move user guide, it says “You need PowerShell version 4.0 or later.” Do we need it on each source VM, on the HV hosts, on the management workstation, or all three?Thanks to all for looking! Gregg

HelloI am interested in the possibility to get a VM memory dump for further analysis (list of processes, sockets, other artifacts). How to do it if using the KVM hypervisor (Acropolis).I need to create a dump on a running VM for analysis. A detailed description of the procedure is required. If I understand correctly, all VMs in Nutanix are kept in the form of files, which files are VM dump files? Оr does Nutanix have a special procedure for creating and downloading a complete dummy file(s) of a virtual machine?OS doesn't matter, it can be anything.Please tell me the information to understand this issue.

In the process of installing the nx-8235-g7 equipment, the foundation cannot perform IPMI MAC ADDRESS DISCOVERY.When the installation was powered on, it was booted into Phoenix.iso and the IPMI IP setting was possible, so the installation was possible with the foundation. Is there any change in IPMI MAC DISCOVERY method from G7 equipment? And when the equipment is received and powered on, it boots into Phoenix.iso. Can you know what this is?And starting from g7, is the IPMI DEFAULT PASSWORD indicated by a sticker on the back of the device where the ipmi ID/PASSWORD is not ADMIN/ADMIN?

Hi Guys,Nutanix today posted on their twitter feed that they are providing free certification by attending their upcoming .NEXT Digital Conference.Following is the link, on the link their is a discount code:- NEXT2020FREENow when i am scheduling exam, it has redirected me to this link  https://www.nutanixuniversity.com/pages/41/take-an-exam  on this link i am unable to find any nutanix exam, how do i search for my exam or how do i schedule my Nutanix NCP exam with above given discount code or without it.I would be glad if someone could guide me, as i already tried & still trying but no success.Thanks in advance, hopefully someone can guide me or a provide a link where i could step by step details.https://www.nutanix.com/support-services/training-certification/next-2020-exam  

I wonder if there is any limit on the number of NICs (VLANs) in a guest VM using AHV \ AOS?As well as, what would be the implications of a VM with multiple NICs, for example, over 20 NICs.

I'm trying to move our vms from one cluster to another but the built in remote site don't work so now I'm trying to manually move the vmdisk files to the other cluster but the NFS connection stops working after a while. I have tried to mount the NFS share in a ESXi server but the transfer errors out after a while. Now I'm trying to use qemu-img to convert the vmdisk and move it, but it fails with : qemu-img convert nfs://127.0.0.1/default-container-49239103706845/.acropolis/vmdisk/81cd6231-e421-441c-850c-9124adf565d0 -O qcow2 ./dns-export.qcow2 & NFS Error: NFS: Read failed with NFS3ERR_JUKEBOX(-11) qemu-img: error while reading sector 4202495: Resource temporarily unavailable Is there any logs that will tell me what is happening with the NFS connection?

We are looking to combine our two nutanix blocks together.we currently have the NX-3360-G6 and the NX-1365-G6. if this possible to achieve, do we have have to double up on the redundant connections per node? this would mean it would be occupying 12 sfp+ connections all together. can anybody shed some light or experience on this?
