How can I find out the address of UUID when it is powered off? I need to edit some custom option by command “virsh edit vm_name” before power on.

Currently, my AOS Version is 6.5, Nutanix requires upgrading to AOS 6.5.3, but I want to upgrade to a newer version. How do you know that the upcoming AOS version will not affect the current AHV version?

Hello,We have an old VM that is in our Nutanix cluster. It is running an old version of Windows server, and our Cyber department does not want it connected to the network. There has been a request to retrieve historic data from the server.  Is there a way to boot the server with the network disconnected and use a USB drive connected to the Nutanix host to export the data? If there is no way to do that what other possibilities will work? Can the virtual disk from the old server be mounted on a new network connected VM? Thanks

Hi team,When I try to log into the PRISM web interface, I get the error message "Unable to authenticate. Please contact the Nutanix administrator." This has never happened before. What should I do in this situation?

Hello everyoneI am trying to move a VM from my VSPHERE environment to my AHV environment using Nutanix Move. I am able to add the source and target without any problem, but when I launch the migration after a few minutes I get this error: Failed to get inventory for source 'vcenterfrbec01.bechard.local'.

I am preparing for Nutanix NCA 6.5 Exam, can someone tell me Nutanix test drive is free for practice or not?

Okay, so I am still seeing weird behavior on my AHV server.At present I am unable to log into the console. Let’s say the username password is root:test. It’s not, but let’s say it is. It tells me it’s wrong, try again. Lather rinse repeat.I go to my PC and ssh into the same box, it works.

Hi, We’re trying to run a POC initially on hardware that has a ASMB IPMI, this appears not supported for foundation deployment. We’re a bit confused about what we do as the documentation for ipmi-less installations isn’t really clear - any help would be greatly appreciated as its stopping us from doing any initial POC testing. We’ve tried multiple routes to install AHV/AOS but all seem to be falling flat at the moment.Foundation VM is unable to deploy to the IMPI targets, gives the Incompatible error. Does not auto discover targets, IPMI is a ASMB9-iKVM Attempts to manually create ISO on VBOX VM not successful, ISO is created by VM but unable to boot stating a kernel error. Tried multiple attempts at ISO and burning in different ways but no luck at all.

Hi teams,i’m looking for nutanix collections icons for visio or drawio diagrams.Thx

In the past, we have built clusters with metro sync (AHV) at 2 Locations and a 3rd for witness.Customers want to get an infrastructure what can tolerate the loss of one Location.Can we stretch a 3 node Cluster across all 3 Locations, one node in one Location?RTT is less than 5ms.In this case, what network topology is required?

Hello, I have instantiated a new cluster and I can’t seem to figure out why the Network Visualization won’t work for my cluster.  LLDP is enabled on my Meraki switch. I can see when new devices join my network as Nutanix on both my eero and firewalla. When I do lldpctl from the host it shows the following:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------LLDP neighbors:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Interface:    eth0, via: LLDP, RID: 1, Time: 1 day, 01:01:39  Chassis:         ChassisID:    mac ac:17:c8:2f:de:80    SysName:      Home - switch    SysDescr:     Meraki MS225-24P Cloud Managed PoE Switch    MgmtIP:       x.x.x.x    Capability:   Bridge, on  Port:            PortID:       ifalias 9    PortDescr:    Port 9    TTL:          120  VLAN:         1, pvid: yes  Unknown TLVs:    TLV:          OUI: 00,18,0A, SubType: 1, Len: 4 00,2C,32,89----------------------------------------------------------------------

I’m trying to retrieve all VM and CVM using the following endpoint in PowerShell https://example.com:9440/api/nutanix/v3/vms/listI get all VM information back as requested but unfortunately I’m not getting any CVM and there is no information related to this in the offial API documentation.As far as I understand in version 1 you would get all vms and cvms using same endopint (vm/list)Is there something I’m missing to set up in order to get the controller vitrual machines ? {    "kind"  = "vm"      "length" =  50000    "offset" =  0}

I completed a CE 2.0 install, I can access AHV and CVM from console, but not from the outside network. Do I need to modify iptables or do something specific with the bridge or vswitch? This is a single cluster on an hp dl380 gen9, I am only using 1 nic and my node is on vlan 20 with IPs 10.1.20.20 and 10.1.20.21 for AHV and CVM in my test lab. I have not set vlans on ahv or cvm. If i plug my laptop into vlan 20, I can’t ping or ssh to ahv or cvm. Any help would be appreciated.

I would like to create a nested vSphere environment on a Nutanix cluster for testing move.I downloaded the last ova from Broadcom flying and configured the NIC model to E1000 on VM but when ESXi boots, I’ve always a NIC error.(“ no compatible network adapter found…..”)Help appreciate.Thanks,nested image > Nested_ESXi8.0u3_Appliance_Template_v1.ovaAll AHV platform up to date.

Hi, If I enable VLAN trunking at VM level, say for example VLAN 100 and VLAN 200. Do I need to assign two different IPs in the same NIC for each VLAN?

Howdy,I wanted to verify what was required for my renewals.I got the below certifications:NCA: NCA: Nutanix Certified Associate 5.20 (08/31/2022)NCA: NCA: Nutanix Certified Associate 6.5 (09/06/2022) NCP: NCP-MCI - Nutanix Certified Professional 6.5 (11/15/2022) Am I correct in understanding that the 6.5 certifications will expire 2 years after the completion date (so 9/6/2024 and 11/15/2024)?  If so, that means that I basically need to retake the same two exams?Thanks!

I have got today my NCA Certification and received one e-mail with some info. There are some actions the email ask to follow like:In the meantime, you can Be on the lookout for an email from Credly’s Acclaim system to accept your digital badge Claim your reward points on Nutanix Connection https://www.nutanix.com/nutanix-connection – Nutanix Customers can redeem points for great Nutanix prizes Visit the NCP/NCAP Certification store at http://store.nutanix.com for shirts, mugs, and more I have already received the email from Credly with my digital badge and it is okWhen I try to connect to the Nutanix Connection, I receive the message:  Unfortunately, you do not have access to this hub. I am new on this and I have a doubt. Do the Nutanix Connection is only for Customers? I am a part of one Organization that is a Nutanix Partner and not a Nutanix Customer. Can someone, please, make this clear to me? Thank you

Hi Nutanix Peeps, I am new in HCI technology and would like to seek your insights on how to configure native VLAN in the Nutanix Environment. The plan was to remove the default VLAN (Data Traffic) to all Cisco access switches therefore removing it will also require to configure new native VLAN in the trunk link between the switches and Nutanix Hosts. Any help would be pretty much appreciated. Thank you so much!

What is the link to download Nutanix Exam certificates. Earlier there was a link on https://partners.nutanix.com/ which doesn’t work now. Credly.com doesn’t contain pdf certificate.Please suggest.

i want to migrate VMs from ahv to ahv in the same cluster (let say from node A to node B) but the VMs status is powered off, in my case i dont want to powered on the VMs, i just want to migrate the VMs to another host without powered it on(live migrate). is there any workaround to do that ?Thank you all

Hi,Does Nutanix AHV allows to deploy VMDK (VMware) or VHDx (Hyper-V) file format VMs in nutanix cluster without converting it to a nutanix supported format?

Hi,Title was of course 2402/2430, not 2404/2430 🙃Having an issue in my home lab… The issue at handI had Nutanix CE2 running on this machine for more than a month. However, due to odd crashes and false positives with disconnect issues on the vs0 configuration (I guess), I figured I would attempt a complete reinstall, having used DP to backup all VMs to another Nutanix CE2 setup. I believe I made a configuration error at some point.However, re-installing with all the exact same devices and settings, I’m faced with this:InstallerVM timeout occurred, current retry 0Please take a look at installer_vm_*.log inside foundation logs to debug hypervisor installation issuesAfter which it will restart the process.I’ve found somewhere near 2 other examples of this, stopping at the same progress [2402/2430], but I can’t figure out the solution.Maybe someone can tell me how to actually find that installer_vm_*.log, as I couldn’t find it anywhere. The SetupMotherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VHDCPU: AMD Ryzen
