Hello,On ESXi based Hypervisors in a Nutanix cluster, in AOS 5.20.2.1 Prism Element | Analysis has a Metric Chart that can be created for a host:Virtual NIC bytes received rateVirtual NIC bytes transmitted rateVirtual NIC bytes dropped transmitted packetsVirtual NIC bytes received packets dropped Any chance it can be added as a metric chart for hosts running AHV? (perhaps I’m missing something...)I do see it in the Networking Visualization - (just the mini-charts when a host / interface is highlighted). We do have network visualization configured and working.

I wish there was a way for Nutanix Collector to import not just VMs usage/resources but the respective protection domains along with the various types of snapshot schedules (i.e. Nearsync/Metro/Async). It would be rather easy to import the snapshot sizes of the local cluster & DR cluster along with the VM to PD association to make the sizing process a bit more well rounded for any configuration. It seems that hourly snapshots have ‘new’ requirements with respect to ‘dense nodes’ that 4 SSDs. This is critical information, specially since SSD capacities involves licensing.Unfortunately this (new) info is not uniformly mentioned in all the various docs: https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Leap-Xi-Leap-Admin-Guide-v5_20:ecd-ecdr-procedure-asynchronous-protectionpolicy-pc-c.htmlhttps://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/solutions/details?targetId=TN-2027-Data-Protection-and-Disaster-Recovery:TN-2027-Data-Protection-and-Disaster-Recovery The information seems to be
Two separate but related questions to Move:I’d like to confirm/verify regarding the Antivirus requirement. Many AV vendors offer the ability to temporarily disable their scanning engines (or at least they used to) except for MS Defender (aka MS Security Essentials/Windows Defender/Microsoft Defender/aka MS Defender 365 etc - either paid or free versions https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-365-defender/advanced-hunting-product-name-changes/ba-p/2009233).During an unrelated troubleshooting support call with Microsoft, they indicated that the Defender engine cannot be turned off/it’s built into the OS.Q1:So, as long as VirtIO drivers are able to get installed while Defender is running, is Microsoft’s Defender product exempt from the AV requirements mentioned above?Q1.1: Are there any particular settings/combination of requirements (i.e. CIS level 1 or 2 like configuration items for Defender) that would not be supported with Move?https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/compliance/reg
vCenter 7.0U1c and vSphere Clustering Service VMs on local or shared storage.After test upgrading vCenter from 6.5U3 to 7.0U1c (which worked just fine w 0 issues), every vmware cluster with DRS and/or HA enabled gets 3 new vCLS (very tiny VMs w 2GB storage/.13GB RAM).When NCC is ran it registers 3 WARNs that there are VMs running on the SATADOM’s. I would assume that, even what (little) they do (today), would this wear out Satadom’s or M.2’s?Would this be a concern for G4/G5’s (w Satadoms) and not G6/G7’s (M.2’s)?”While vCLS can be moved to shared storage, wouldn’t they be moved back to local storage during an NX cluster stop?(Like to point out this was done in a LAB environment, not in Production… no bits nor bytes were harmed during the upgrade progress.)
When a share is deleted in Nutanix Files, File Analytics retains the Audit data.In certain situations, such audit data must be retained for a set of time before it can be deleted. It would be great if:A retention period for Audit Data can be defined (along with any alerts, if that can’t be met due to capacity etc.)Add the date of the Share deletion to the “Manage Share/Export Audit data” view in File Analytics’ view. Currently only the “Share Name” “Share Protocol” “Audit Data” and “Action” columns are present...David
Is there a comprehensive Nutanix Files related command reference guide (PDF/HTML)? Similarly, a reference guide for Files with respect to APIs, RESTful calls, PowerShell/Python APIs etc?
