HI, recently someone upgraded a VM in our Nutanix cluster without documenting it. I know when it happened from the Tasks view in Prism. I need to konw if there is a log of who has logged into Prism to correlate but can’t seem to find this. Any ideas? Thanks!

I”m trying to find out if Nutanix has a scheduled patching regimen similar to Microsoft’s Patch Tuesday. How are admins informed when there is an emergency patch? Do these include patches to Prism, to AOS and firmware patches? Thank you.

Hi allI use the v2 Prism Elements API to clone a VM from a Protection Domain Snapshot.It seems to work and the VM is created (cloned) correctly.However: The new VM always has the Prefix “Nutanix-Clone-”.The values i pass via vg_name_prefix and vm_name_prefix are simply ignored. In the Web UI (using the v1 API internally) it works fine.Please see the attached screenshots of the Web UI and the API call. Thanks in advance!

How to migrate ESX VM with independent disks and PCIE to AHV

Hi all, I have almost 200 Virtual machine in my AHV environment . Is there anyway to summary operating system in each virtual machine, Does it have any tool like rvtool in vmware ?

I’m receiving a 401 Unauthorized error when trying to access our cluster to retrieve snapstop information. I’m passing a valid VM UUID and have used credentials from one of our local user accounts which has both cluster and admin roles assigned. I can access most other methods of the API using these credentials, but not this one. What am I doing wrong?https://{prism_element_ip}:9440/api/nutanix/v2.0/flr/{vm_uuid}/snapshots

Hi everyone Is it possible for future versions of AHV to see the operating system fields of virtual machines?

Hello team, We used Nutanix sizer to configure a 3 node cluster, if hybrid mode is selected the smaller suggested option for cold data is a 4 X 2Tb SAS disks set when we choose 2 x 960Gb SSD for hot data. Is it possible to get support and buy a license if we configure the node with 2 x 2Tb disks? It's a small environment and we don't need all that extra space. Every hardware component is in the supported compatibility matrix of the vendor, just not sure Nutanix can fully support a custom configuration

We are trying to pull VM Creation Date on one of our AHV Cluster, we also have PC in our environment. Kindly advise if any way to fetch the VM Creation date.

I did online training of NUTANIX , i got voucher for exam I just want know do they have any validity. As i am preparing for exam it may time ready for exam

Hello, I intend to take the NCP 5.10 exam and for this I used the voucher available from April 22 to July 31 for partners that allows me to do it for free. I have scheduled the exam for July 30 but I would like to know if it is possible to schedule it for later, in this case August. The exam programmer allows me to set the exam in August but I am afraid of losing the free opportunity offered by the voucher since I do not know if the interval April 22 - July 31 refers to the time when you can schedule the exam or if it refers to when you can do it. Thank you very much.

Hi, I have built up a Darksite LCM running in my own local network and have Internet access to download necessary Darksite bundles for upgrading. In my testing evironment, the server works flawlessly with Dell XC cluster and Nutanix cluster as well but with DX cluster, it cannot provide any firmware update at this time though currently at least 1 node in our cluster is running on an old SPP version (2019.03.01). For our DX environment: Node1: 2020.03.0 SPP Node2: unverified? (LCM cannot detect the SPP version) Node3: 2019.03.01 SPP Does anyone have any idea on this case?
