I have noticed that image (.ISO) uploads to image configuration in Prism fail at 4 Gb. the upload seems to be fine then IE throws the error that IE has crashed. When you re-open Prism, it looks complete, but it's at 4Gb when the actual .ISO was 5,6,7 or bigger. It works fine in Chrome. Is this a known issue? I see it mentioned in other threads; [url=https://next.nutanix.com/t5/How-It-Works/Windows-2016-server-install-on-AOS-failing-with-driver-errors/m-p/22053/highlight/false#M901]https://next.nutanix.com/t5/How-It-Works/Windows-2016-server-install-on-AOS-failing-with-driver-errors/m-p/22053/highlight/false#M901[/url] The message in Prism changes from "Uploading file 65%" to "Loading data..." (screenshot 2) and then IE crashes. Then after you log back in, the upload always has failed at 4 Gb. [img]https://d1qy7qyune0vt1.cloudfront.net/nutanix-us/attachment/4108iF912782B8ACEA2BA.png[/img]

Hi I found the KB below stating you can't virtualize domain controllers on Nutanix Hyper-V. [url=https://portal.nutanix.com/#/page/kbs/details?targetId=kA032000000TTGWCA4]https://portal.nutanix.com/#/page/kbs/details?targetId=kA032000000TTGWCA4[/url] Quote: "Why? Because Hyper-V wants to contact the AD server before it can power up any VM on Nutanix storage, and the AD server would not be available because the VM cannot be booted." I am of the understanding that this might have been a thing in up until 2008 R2, but this should not be a problem when running Hyper-V on 2012 R2. Anyone that could shed some light on the matter? Would like to call the support line, but that is not an option right now since it has nothing to do with our own nutanix nodes. EDIT: Solved. Found out it is due to the SMB3 share of the nutanix cluster, which requires authentication from the domain.

Hi, I read the post [url=https://next.nutanix.com/t5/Prism-Central/Download-Prism-Central/m-p/7863#M1]https://next.nutanix.com/t5/Prism-Central/Download-Prism-Central/m-p/7863#M1[/url]. But after clicking on the download link for ESX, it turns out to download version 4.6 (I think this is an old version). How can I download Prism Central 5.1 or latest version? Or it is not free for download at all? Thanks, Liang

Hi, While tring to upgrade PC from 5.5 to 5.5.0.2 getting error as "Cannot upgrade PC cluster with non-PC image Failed to find version 5.5.0.2 in proto."

Post depoying Prism Element 5.5 we added Nutanix cluster which are running AOS 5.1.3 & AOS 5.1.2. But while launching element from central it shows error unable to access prism element. This happens with IE & Chrome [img]https://d1qy7qyune0vt1.cloudfront.net/nutanix-us/attachment/3900i23A2F35EC38600FF.png[/img]

Do you know if Avaya Aura is already supported on Acropolis (AHV)? - If yes, where can I get more information about? - If not, do you know when? Thanks folks!

running through the big 5.5 upgrade this weekend and I'm running into a currious issue.After installing a fresh copy of prism central 5.5 (we never used it befoer 5.5, but now it's required), I cannot seem to get the ad authentication to work. The connection is configured, and I can still search for and map groups to roles (so I know at least some ofthe AD integration is working), but when it comes time to actually login ... I keep get that I'm using a bad username/password. Release notes mention that everything is UPN based, but that's basically always been the case for my company anyway (we've always logged in using upn).Anyone else run into this?

This one is stumping me. I opened a low priority ticket to get some official info, but i figured i would ask here to see if anyone else has had a similar experience: Background: we received an alert from prism central that one of our cluster's was going to run out of CPU soon. I checked in the hypervisor (esxi) and in prism element and in central under analysis but i could not find an issue. Then, i checked planning and it shows us running out of CPU very soon. At first i thought the initial load up was skewing the data, but when i looked closer, i noticed that the value planning was using for our current usage was at 50Ghz, when the hypervisor is reporting 12Ghz (cluster of 3).I pulled all of the other cluster's planning data and all of them have the same problem, CPU usage is being greatly over reported on the planning chart. Charts under analysis agree with the hypervisor, but these are looking at % usage, not hz. What gives? is there a bug in how planning is calculatin

Hi, I am looking for a complete MIB SNMP.I see that, in Prism / SNMP / View MIB, there is a MIB. But I wonder if this list is complete. AOS 5.5Thanks, Pierre

Hi, I am doing some tests with creating and deleting large files in a sles12 installation on our AHV environment. I use an ext4 filesystem and have enabled the trim/discard feature for the filesystem and lvm. But when i delete a large file with random data (5g size) the storage backend of the cluster does not see that the former used storage is now not longer used. I tried fstrim to initiate the cleanup but that doesn´t work. If I write zeros to the file/partition/filesystem then the backend gets backs the storage. Is trim/discard supported to tell the storage backend that filesystem space is no longer needed or does anybody has experience with such a setup ? Thank you for your help. Regards Hans

Hi guys, I'm still digging to give corrects answer to my manager who is puting pros and cons for nutanix on the table. As I need to make a design without knowing exactly where he want to go, I'm making assomption on it. I understood that they wanted to put NSX on it VRA and vCloud SP. I've found a couple of recommandations / tips on NSX over NUTANIX but nothing that can be used on design part (more on implementation which is quite cool !) Do someone have integrated it on a 4.5 cluster ? do Nutanix plan to give us a technical note / any other cool stuff on NSX ? sheers,

If I have 15 physical servers Windows servers with the Veeam plug-in, can I use a Nutanix cluster as a backup target?

Hello everyone, I have a question concerning the analysis tab on the Prism Element UI. To get started i will shortly explain what our current situation is: Last year we sold some Nutanix boxes to a customer. In this contract we also included monitor/management services. As an agreement, every month we schedule a meeting with our customer where we evaluate performance of the nutanix clusters. There are 3 main fields we focus on during the meeting; Cluster host usage, storage performance and storage usage. (See picture below) [img]https://d1qy7qyune0vt1.cloudfront.net/nutanix-us/attachment/2455iA44A83E08CA1AFD3.png[/img] In this report we include all the data we extracted from the analysis tab on Prism Element. We import this data into excel and pour that data into graphs. (See picture below). [img]https://d1qy7qyune0vt1.cloudfront.net/nutanix-us/attachment/2456i46E943614942F702.png[/img] This is where our problems arise. As you can see we need both monthly & lifetim

Hi, I would like to ask if Nutanix support replace SSD/HDD with different capacity. The reason I ask is that I want to keep the certain Hot Data ratio when data growth but without a growth on compute capacity. My concern is that if I just add the NX-6035C could allow me to growth my data, but the SSD may not enough for maintain the ratio of required Hot Data. Thanks.

Hi, I have a standalone ESX 5.1 server with a VM with multiple 2TB (screenshot from WinScp attached below) vmdk volumes. VM is Windows 2008 R2. My Nutanix cluster is running 5.01, NCC 3.0.0.2, AHV 20160925.30 - Starter Edition I am planning to use a Windows 2012 R2 server with WinSCP to get the vmdk files onto the Nutanix cluster container (I have multiple containers) and then use the Image service (via Chrome browser) to upload/convert via UNC to the container. Here are my questions: [list=1] [*]I'm wondering if there are any limitations on the Image Server when using the Chrome Browser [*]Any potential issues with these vmdk sizes? [*]What is the syntax for the URL to access the Storage Container so I can upload the vmdk without using the UNC? -Figure this one out. In Image Service use nfs://clusterip/Containername/name ofvmdk-flat.vmdk [*]Since I need to upload multiple vmdk files that quite large, can/should I open multiple browsers to get simultaneous uploads happeni

Hi all, I have a case open for this with Nutanix Support, however, while I'm waiting... I'm wondering if anyone can explain why in a block that contains 12HDDs and 6SSDs (3-node block), only shows disk statistics for the SSDs and no values for the HDDs in the list (all metrics are 0).
