Hi folks, I want to ask about the details regarding the network connectvity failure and cluster behaviour in such cases. I am mentioning two such scenarios but other scenarios may also be possible. Scenario 1. If one host in the cluster gets completely disconnected from other nodes at network level but host is up and running what will be the cluster behavior and what will happen to the vms running on that particuar host Scenario 2. If all hosts in the cluster get disconnected from each other at network level but hosts and cvms are up and running, what will happen to the vms running on each host.
Hello, with latest AOS (5.10 or newer) it's possible to run multiple hypervisor in same cluster ? For example one cluster with 5 nodes with esxi and 3 nodes with AHV ? Thanks Manuel
Hi all, we are performing a POC and we have a cluster that originallly had about 30 Tib of available space made of SSD+ HDD. Then, to show the customer the performance improvement moving to All Flash we made an inline conversion addind SSD and removing all the HDD and now we have a total available space is about 11 TiB. The storage container has compression enable and the real used capacity is 4,5 Tib. The problem is that most of the VM are thick provisioned and the actual use space is reported at 12 Tib hence above the available capacity. This triggers RED alarms on the Prism console saying that he Data Resiliency is not available. So I have 2 questions: 1) since the actual used capacity is 4,5 Tib what happens in case of a disk failure? 2) how can we manage to eliminate these alarms? Question number 2) is particularly relevant since if we succeed in the POC and the customer could purchase Nutanix all flash systems , they will like to use th
I just upgraded our Prism Central to version 5.7.1 and noticed that the widget with the banana-holding monkey never changes when we get an alert from one of our managed clusters. I removed and re-added the widget from the PC console but it still never updates when we receive an new alert. Grated, this is not very important but has anyone else seen this issue?
URLs such as insights.nutanix.com *.compute-*.amazonaws.com release-api.nutanix.com ... According to our security team, those URLs are white listed, so they must be down. e.g. "release-api.nutanix.com could not be reached. Please check Name Server and Proxy settings" Thx
Hi, I just added a new storage disk onto a VM and copied data onto it then realize we'd rather just expand the current one so I deleted the new disk and when I go to expand the current disk it is showing that I have no more space to use to expand. Where is the space going after I delete disks? Thanks,
Hello, I'm struggling with the installation of AFS on the last CE - reading 20180425.199 on Prism Element. After several tries (3.2.0, 2.2.3, 2.2.0 and 2.2.1) all failing with the same annoying message (Software is not compatible with the current installed NOS version), I finally call for help. Does anyone know which AFS version is compatible with CE 2018.04.25 ? Luc.
When trying to use the allssh "manage_ovs ...." I get the above error. As I understand it Zeus and Zookeeper are close friends(as one would expect). Zookeeper implements the cluster configuration information while Zeus is used by other cluster components to access it? Somewhere I read that when you manually add a new node to a cluster Zookeeper on that new node is not active? Any information would be appreciated (even rabbit holes). thx.

Hi Team, We use SCVMM to manage all our VM's and we are planning to move some machines to the AHV environment..Can you please confirm whether we will be able to do the live migration my VM's from HyperV to AHV?? Regards, V.Pradeep
Hello, I have questions on SSD pool and ILM mechanism I still did not found answers for after cross reading dozens of web sites and forums. Probably the response is obvious but I feel like I am missing something here and would like to have certainties on these points. So, let's suppose I have a 4 hybrid (1065) node cluster and I am running out of SSD. Q1) Can I technically add an All Flash node in the same cluster container ? Q2) Will the VMs hosted on this specific AF node automatically be all flash VMs (with no ILM and cold tier drain mechanism) ... or will they use the cluster cold storage pool (from other hybrid nodes) ? ===== Regarding the ILM mechanism and different SSD thresold, I (think I) understood that: - data will preferentially be stored on local SSD of each node until it reaches 75% usage - If one node reaches 75% of SSD usage, then ILM will send "less hotest" local SSD data over the network to other remote SSD nodes - If all nodes fi
Is it possible to implement throttling at a per VM level? The thoughts/scenario behind the question: We have had on a couple occasions where we found a VM (different in each occasion) that was running away with storage controller IOPs. Of course the goal is to get the actual issue resolved for the offending VM, but we would like to be able to implement throttling to be able to assure other VMs in that cluster don't suffer when this does occur. Disk I/O has been the scenario so far, but could also see the need to throttle CPU, memory, and/or NIC throughput at some point.
Without a backup solution, am I able to restore a vm on AHV using the built in RF?
Is there a way to deactivate an old Protection Domain and move the snapshot data to a new Protection Domain?
Does anyone know of any official documentation on the best way to perform a migration from Hyper-V 2016 on Nutanix to a new AHV cluster (not an in place migration)? Or any good guides on doing this? It is going from Hyper-V 2016 to AHV but 2012 would be helpful. I have found a few articles but they are either quite old or not very well written.

Hello, I have turned on Windows Dedup for some of my file servers that reside on AHV, however the storage reduction is not reflected on Prism. Any thoughts as to why? I wish I could run the Capacity Dedup from AHV however the last time that I turned it on I received the following alert: Do not replicate protection domain XXXXXXX comprising entities from the storage container that have deduplication enabled to a single node remote site XXXXXXX. (XXX denote omitted field)
How do virtual machines on AHV migrate to vmware?
So, does anyone know a way of getting information on what error codes mean what? Like a KB or something of error codes?
Hi All, I ran a Foundation upgrade pre-check on my single node cluster and now Prism times out when trying to log in as a standard user or admin and when I try to run acli in a ssh session to the cvm I get "Failed to connect to server: [Errno 111] Connection refused" Where to from here? Thanks in advance, Chris
Hi All I have read that a single storage container is all that should be used as Nutanix takes care of all the functionality like de-dupe and ssd allocation. I started my Nutanix journey with a number of containers for dividing into business parts eg: Production SQL, Production Web, Dev, and Test. Is this division a sensible way to go or do the latest versions of Nutanix negate that? I intend to limit dev and test to slower drives in the pool, is that possible outside a container approach? Many thanks E.
