How to Get Total vCPU count details from a cluster?
Hello All, I am working with Affinity policies and I wonder if there is an Affinity “light”. What I mean by this is in Hyper-v clusters you have a “Preferred Server” this means that if the preferred server is available the vm will reside there if not it will move to stay running. Once the preferred server is back online then it will move back. Is this possible in AHV? Thanks,Scott
Hello Nutanix community, i have a question about compatibility between Cisco ESA C100V and Nutanix AHV?
CVM On LACP networks, Physical switches use MLAG technology，CVM bandwidth performance cannot be improved, and the maximum can only be 10Gb.
Hello. I have a question about upgrading AOS and AHV.I understand that upgrading AOS and AHV requires restarting nodes one by one, so I need to calculate memory, CPU, storage, etc. and free up enough space.There are customers who are currently using more than 90% of cluster memory.cpu, there's plenty of storage.We recommended turning off underutilized VMs to free up memory capacity, but they said it was impossible.It also says that disabling virtual machine high availability reduces memory utilization to less than 60%.However, it is recommended that you disable virtual machine high availability because it is a feature for recovery in the event of a host failure.If you turn off this feature during an upgrade and an unexpected failure occurs during the process, it can be a problem, right?In conclusion, I would appreciate it if you could tell me the correlation between upgrade and virtual machine high availability.
HiIs there a way to setup an email alert when a user logs into Prism (Central and element) and an extension to this is there a way to send an email when a patch update is started and ends? ThanksEric
We have a scenario where we want to show session based stats for any particular VM. Using below API we can get the CPU stats for the whole VM.https://{{cluster_ip}}:{{port}}/PrismGateway/services/rest/v1/vms/{{uuid}}/stats?metrics=hypervisor_cpu_usage_ppm&intervalInSecs=60&startTimeInUsecs=1607965687547284&endTimeInUsecs=1607967487547284Is there any way or any API that can can give stats bases on machine sessions?
Hi everyone, I am currently taking NCA 5.20 course and while I was doing the quizzes, I ran into this question which I could not figure out why the answer is 5tib. Anyone could help and explain to me. Thank you very much!Your current storage pool is 10TiB. With 5 storage containers configured and a Replication Factor of 2, what is the size of each storage container?2TiB 1TiB 10TiB 5TiB Answer
Nutanix NX3x50 What are the required software needed?How do I erase the previous host that downloaded a software that requires authentication before going to OS?How do I factory reset the server?How to install Ubuntu on one node, but use two nodes for computation and the other 2 nodes for backup.
Please save meThe Great Experts of NutanixI'm doing a server security check with a clientI can't find some of my questions in portal or kb documents, so I'm writing here,so I'd appreciate it if you could answer themI don't care if there's a clue. Please answer meIf there's a document, just give me a link====================================================================Nutanix's cvm is based on Linux, right?1. Can I set the limit of ip address and port for a specific host in Nutanix cvm?For example, allow access only to cvm or ip of a particular console and block the remaining ip 2. I can't set iptables, ipfilter, or tcp wrapper in cvm, right? 3. In cvm, acl (Access Control List) cannot change the setting value, right? If I can't change it, is there a reason?
Hi Team, Im trying to enable LACP on AHV cluster. Currently we have 1 cluster with 5 AHV nodes in it. I have enabled VDI pro license to the cluster. Now when i goto "network" from prism element, I do not see "uplink configuration" option at all. Please guide me what is the cause and work around. Also nutanix recommendation on lacp bond mode. can I set the bond mode to active-active ?
We have a (older) Windows 2012 R2 VM with a OS Disk and a Data Disk (scsi.0 and scsi.1 respectively) running on AHV / AOS 5.20.4.6 LTSThe data disk (scsi.1) was originally created with 4kb allocation unit size (no NTFS disk compression is utilized) and this disk has reached it’s maximum size under NTFS of 16TiB. It’s also 96% full… 😟The custom application is such that mount points won’t work. It was suggested to see if perhaps Acronis Disk Director could safely change the drive’s allocation unit size from 4k to 64k (and preserve the data). To my knowledge formatting a drive is the only way to accomplish allocation unit size changes...Is changing the allocation unit a supported operation?Has anyone successfully made such a change?
Probably a silly question. Regarding Prism Element...When logging in and are greeted with the main page or when navigating to other pages, are there UI logs?
Hey Guys,The above screenshot shows the end of support life for 6.1 shows Oct 2022 but if I check the yellow dot it says end of support life within 6 months. Can anyone clear this doubt on the end of support for 6.1?

Which image types are stored by the Nutanix Image Service?
Hello,Does anybody know where I can find the 'Nutanix AHV Best Practices', as found in the google search below, I can't for the life of me find it.Specially looking for best practices for different workloads, and that article based on the description seemed to hit the nail on the head regarding higher clock speeds for database workloads for example.i find that a lot of Google links just end up with a "Not Found or Forbidden" message.
i wants to Migrate VMs from AHV cluster to AHV Cluster, my Source AHV Cluster running on AOS 5.20.0.1 LTS and destination cluster running on 5.20.3.5 LTS, so can configure Data protection and migrate VMs from source ahv cluster to destination ahv cluster with mismatch AOS version.?
Is there any specific requirement port speed on TOR Switch for Nutanix Cluster running NVME + SSD storage? Is still good running 10Gb Switch to cover NVME + SSD performance? Thanks
I have a requirement to deploy configuration server in Nutanix cloud for DR scenario, Azure provides OVF template to deploy this server. But as nutanix doesn’t support OVF format i have extracted OVA file to .vmdk files and created disks with it. Created a new VM and attached these disks to it. But facing VM Boot up issues. Any walkthrough for deploying VM using OVA/OVF files.
We are planning for migrate using Nutanix move from ESXi to AHV.Does it require local admin credentials for migrations for any account with root preveliges is fine.I know the appliance will try to install VirtIO drivers and uninstall vmware tools.But can it be by passed or local admin access is required during migration.Also have another question on Domain controller and Citrix vms running on the vmware ESXi.Are there any pre-requisites to be done before migration. ThanksSriram
Hi,Does anyone replace a failure capacity SATA HDD on Nutanix NX Series with same model HDD before? Is it possible/or compatiable? The NX Series already EOL!
I'm going to change Windows 10 to Windows 11, so I'd like to see if I can use the Nutanix Prism web console in my Windows 11 environment when I upgrade, so where can I find the documentation or content?
Hi, i am new to this technology and have a new school coming on board running 3 NX-1065-G7 hyperconverged running windows 2019 vms for the school, what i am looking for is a learning / training path that will set me in good stead to gain an understanding and have the ability to support the servers in a day to day running.
Hi,I'm preparing my graduation project on HCI - Nutanix NX, and I'm stuck with the fundamental components of Acropolis AOS. In some documents, they discuss DSF + AMF + AHV, but in most documents and publications AMF is ignored.
