Solved

 After deploying 6 Lenovo ThinkAgile HX650 V3 CE nodes in a single cluster, Nutanix Prism Element shows that it has no active licenses. In the Nutanix portal website with the end user credentials, it can be seen that it has the starter and pro licenses. When uploading the cluster summary file generated by Nutanix Prism Element, it shows the error "No compatible products found for the uploaded cluster summary file". The cluster does not have access to DNS or an NTP server. I have also tried entering the cluster information as Dark Site but it continues to show the same error. I would appreciate it if you could tell me how I can overcome the error and upload the license. Thank you.

This has been an effort in patience. I have 4 HPE Gen10 DL360s, all with the exact same hardware config, same firmware, same everything yet every one of them has presented me with a different challenge when installing CE. This particular server will not get past INFO Removing the marker file.   My research has not turned up anything yet. I’m installing from phoenix.x86_64-fnd_5.6.1_patch-aos_6.8.1_ga.iso Thanks

こんにちは。現在 AOS 6.5.6.5 を使用している環境をAOS 6.10にアップグレードしたいと思い、LCMでインベントリを実行しました。インベントリ実施後にアップグレード可能なバージョンを確認したところ、AOS 6.5.6.6しか表示されずAOS 6.10が表示されませんでした。 Upgrade Pathを確認したところ、AOS 6.10へのアップグレードはサポートされているのですが「One click download enabled」のアイコンは表示されていませんでした。Download Imageのリンクは表示されています。One click download enabledでアップグレードできそうな中間バージョンも存在しないようでした。 LCMで対応できない時のアップグレードの方法を教えて頂けませんでしょうか。 

Hi,I have 2 x 3 node clusters managed by a single Prism Central,  I have recently tried to upgrade the PC and it does not like the fact it is unnamed it has only a virtual IP - also with no entry in DNS.  So the terminology is confusing me a bit, to add a name to PC it requires the cluster name - is this a PC Cluster name, different to the 3 node cluster names?  or something else?  If I add an FQDN now will it break my existing clusters? ThanksEric

I need your help.I downloaded the cfs file to open the case.I received the cfs file during the licensing manual registration process and have not proceeded further since then.The license was already registered.There was only a file download to open the case.The problem isyou have a pending licensing action. finish the process by uploading a license summary file.This is because the alarm keeps popping up and the license registration process cannot be canceled.Please let me know how to end this alarm.The existing license is already registered.It was cfs file download to open case.You do not need to re-register your license.Please let me know how to get rid of this alarm and end the registration process.

Howdy y’all,I am working through getting NGT installed across our fleet of 250 VMs and need to be able to mass add cdroms to each VM in our fleet.I’ve been able to generate lists of VMs but have yet to be able to add a cdrom to any of them.I’ve been getting Bad Request Errors (400) so I’m sure it’s how the payload is being created, but no combination of settings has worked for me.I’m obviously frankensteining from across the web, but I offer you my meager script for scrutiny.Any help is appreciated!Thank you!import urllib3import getpassimport sys import ntnx_vmm_py_clientfrom ntnx_vmm_py_client import Configuration as VMMConfigurationfrom ntnx_vmm_py_client import ApiClient as VMMClientfrom ntnx_vmm_py_client.rest import ApiException as VMMExceptionimport ntnx_vmm_py_client.models.vmm.v4.ahv.config as AhvVmConfig #Disable SSL Checksurllib3.disable_warnings(urllib3.exceptions.InsecureRequestWarning) #Get the credentialspc_ip ="<Prism Central IP>"username = "<Username>"cluste

有識者の皆様、標題の件についてアドバイスいただけると助かります。 ネットワーク帯域を有効活用するためにActive/Active MAC Pinning の利用を検討しています。（LACPは利用不可）しかしながら、設定画面にてActive/Active MAC Pinning の構成は非推奨として表示されているため、懸念を払しょくしたい背景があります。以下のドキュメントを確認する限り、マルチキャストを利用しない環境であれば、（Active/Backupと比較して）特段の懸念はないと判断していますが、それ以外に何か注意した方がいいことなどありますでしょうか？Nutanix AHV Networking Best PracticesMulticast traffic stops working when balance-slb load balancing is used in AHV 

Hi,we have a Nutanix 2-Node ROBO cluster and we need to replace one of the two nodes. Reading from documentation seams not feasable as operation.  Do you have any ideas? RegardsAndrea Meneghinello

Hi Anyone have a playbook that I can use accomplish the subject feat? I have to power cycle 470 VMs in groups. i.e Group1 has 45 VMs, Group2 has 45 vms and so on.

有識者の皆様ADS無効化時の動作についてご教示いただけますと幸いです。vSphereとの動作比較の文脈での質問です。ADS無効化時の挙動としてドキュメントを確認する限り以下の理解で正しいでしょうか？①VMHAは動作する②ただしアフィニティルールは動作しない参照ドキュメント：Acropolis Dynamic SchedulervSphereはDRS無効時にもvSphere HA発生時にアフィニティルールが考慮されるため、その観点での確認です。

AHVホストのセットアップで疑問があるので、質問させてください。 最近出荷のAHVホストのBIOS設定を確認したところ、TPM（Trusted Platform Module）が有効、セキュアブートは無効になっていました。AHVバージョンはAHV-20230302.102001、AOS 6.10 (LTS)の利用を想定しています。ドキュメントを探してもよくわからなかったのは、次の2点です。 1.将来発生するかもしれない、マザーボードの交換などに備えてユーザー側で実施しておく必要のある作業はありますでしょうか？ESXiとの比較になってしまうのですが、、「リカバリー キーの取得」のような事前作業は必要でしょうか？ 2.TPM有効な状態でAHVホストをインストールし、あとからTPMを無効化した場合にホストが起動しなくなったりするのでしょうか？ 

Foundation VM 5.7を使用して Oracle Virtualbox でクラスタのデプロイを試していますが、bzip2 not found のメッセージがでて Guest Additions Instllation に失敗します。    bzip2 not found. Please Install: bzip2 tar; and try again yum で bzip2 のインストールを試みているもののうまくいきません。何か情報はありますでしょうか。  

Currently, I have a Nutanix Acropolis PRO (P1.0) license where the ‘Multiple Site DR’ feature is limited. By upgrading the license to P2.0, if I understand correctly, this feature should be unlocked, enabling the possibility of having Multiple Site DR as many-to-many. Is this correct?”Is there anything else you need help with regarding this upgrade?Thank you for your help

Hi there,  I am trying to install the CE version for testing in my home lab with a MSI cubi 5, I am using an NVMe drive and a SATA SSD for DATA and CVM respectively, and I thought I could use a USB stick for the AHV, however, I get a timeout whenever I try to run the installation even though I increased the timeout in the installer_vm.py, any suggestions?  Thanks!

Right after I accpet the EULA the screen is terminating with this error “QEMU limits the disk serial length to 36, Serial is found duplicate after truncation XY”. Now I can’t find anything on the web related to this problem, so I’m going to ask it. What does this error mean and how could solve it? I’m using the CE version 2.1 

Unable to expand cluster from prism UI, host and CVM IPs are reachable on the target node. Pls suggest ways to expand the cluster.  

はじめまして。Nutanixの勉強を始めたてのものです。的外れな質問をしてしまうこともあるかもしれませんが、どうぞよろしくお願いいたします。早速ですが、AHV/CVMのディスク構成に関して質問させていただきたいことがあります。1. AHV/CVMのインストールディスクについてNutanix CE（AHV/CVM）をインストールする際に、[H][C][D]のディスクを選択すると思います。これらの用途について、以下の理解でいるのですが正しいでしょうか？・[H]・・・AHVのインストールディスク・[C]・・・CVMのインストールディスク・[D]・・・AHV上で仮想マシンやvolumeとして利用できるディスク（＝ストレージプール）2. SSD層/HDD層はどこから割り当てられる？上記で相違ない場合、SSD層(ホットデータ層)/HDD層(コールドデータ層)は、各ノードの[D]から自動で判別され割り当てられるようになるのでしょうか？3. [C]の用途について[C]はCVMのインストールディスクとなる認識ですが、それにしては[C]の容量要件が多い気がしています。CVM単体でそこまで容量を利用するものなのでしょうか？以上です。無知で申し訳ないのですがご教示いただけますと幸いです。

I have several Citrix clusters with NX-8170-G8 and NX-8170-G9 nodes.  I want to perform updates but the VMs will not migrate. VMs need to be power cycled in order to get the VMs revert to the lower CPU in the cluster.I was looking for script that i can run in the intelligent ops playbook that will Identify the VMs that needs to be power cycled, and power cycle them.  Can assist with script to get the state of the VMs that needs to be power cycled?  Power cycle the VMs which don't have APC configured.  Power cycle the VMS which don't have APC configured to ensure CPU compatibility. Power cycle all the VMS in the cluster to ensure CPU compatibility. How do I find VMs that do not have APC configured?

We have just had a new cluster installed and its running AHV, I have used Nutanix for about 6 years but always with ESX so its all a bit new to me!I’m sure I’ll have a few questions but currnetly I have this annoying issue! I have uploaded a few images to PC, qcow2 files, but when I deploy a VM using the images it always creates the VMs in the selfservicecontainer storage container, which is a tad annoying as I then have to move it manually using  acli vm.update_container vm-name container=container name wait=false In PC the storage container drop down box for the VM is grayed out so I can’t change it in the PC web GUI.  the cli works but I would like to create the VM in what ever storage container I want without having to move it after the event!  Is this possible? 

Hey,I have some older Nutanix hardware: the NX-1465-G5. It’s currently running an outdated version of AOS. I’m looking to reinstall the appliance with version 6.10. Is the G5 model compatible with AOS 6.10? Is there compatibility for my equipment?Thanks!

Greetings everyone,I have been successful at creating a rest api call to ADD a category to the VM.  The issue is we only want 1 category per VM, so if the VM already has a category assigned we want it to REPLACE the value and not ADD it.  With my current code (ie: use GET command of VM, remove Status, replace categories and categories_mapping then use PUT command) the JSON object looks good before uploading but afterwards I see the new category and the old one.  I tried using a PATCH command but AHV doesn’t like that (and it isn’t in the documentation either).   New Category = NEW_CATVM Original State:    "categories": {      "OLD_CAT": "OLD_CAT",    } VM Post My Update State:    "categories": {      "OLD_CAT": "OLD_CAT",      "NEW_CAT": "NEW_CAT"    } VM Desired State:    "categories": {      "NEW_CAT": "NEW_CAT"    }Any help would be greatly appreciated.

HelloI’m testing an install on a DL360 Gen10+ server. The server has an NS-204i boot controller with 2 x  disks and there is an MR216 controller with 2 x 3.84TB disks (believe they are PM893a).I have tried the install a few times but have been wiping the server each time it fails. I’ve now got to the stage where it fails with the same error each time so I need to know why its failing."CRITICAL svm_rescue:1046 No suitable SVM boot disk found"Should I have three arrays in the server? One for AHV, one for SVM/CVM and one for storage?How/where do I run lsscsi" to check for partitions that may need to be removed?Thanks in advance for any help with this.ThanksRussell

いつもお世話になっております。 Nutanix MOVEを使ってvCenter + ESXi環境のVMをNutanix AHVに移行しようと思っているのですが、MOVEのコンパチガイド(Supported AOS, ESXi, and Hyper-V Version)を見るとPrism Centralのバージョンの記載がありました。Prism Centralのバージョンとの互換性確認が必要になるときはNutanix AHVから同じくNutanix AHVに移行するとき等で、vCenter + ESXi環境のVMをNutanix AHVに移行するときは関係ない認識でよいでしょうか？ 以上、よろしくお願いいたします。
