5 Essential Tips for Maximizing Your Experience at Nutanix .NEXT for Bloggers
I have a problem with a CVM that won’t boot. This is on a semi-retired production cluster (not CE) that has no workloads running on it.I found the console output in /tmp/NTNX.serial.out.0 and I can see it trying to enable RAID devices, scan for a uuid marker and find 2 of them, then abort and unload the mpt3sas kernel module before trying again in 5 seconds. This repeats a few times before the hypervisor resets it and it starts booting again.The most relevant sections of the log (copious kernel taint messages removed) are [ 9.543553] sd 2:0:3:0: [sdd] Attached SCSI disksvmboot: === SVMBOOTmdadm main: failed to get exclusive lock on mapfile[ 9.790075] md: md127 stopped.mdadm: ignoring /dev/sdb3 as it reports /dev/sda3 as failed[ 9.794087] md/raid1:md127: active with 1 out of 2 mirrors[ 9.796034] md127: detected capacity change from 0 to 42915069952mdadm: /dev/md/phoenix:2 has been started with 1 drive (out of 2).[ 9.808602] md: md126 stopped.[ 9.813330] md/raid1:md126:
I created a Project in Prism Central and assigned a bunch of users to it, expecting them to be able to provision their own VMs with cloud-init configs customised to their liking.I found this awesome example code https://www.nutanix.dev/code_samples/create-linux-vm-customised-with-cloud-init/ which shows it can be done with API calls, however, as a user in the Project, there does not seem to be any options in the PC UI that allow me to specify a custom script when creating a VM.Are custom scripts deliberately hidden when using Projects? How are my users supposed to customise their VMs?
