Sizer Configuration Estimator

Hi everybody,i’m trying to Size a Mine appliance with Veeam (Workload: Mine (v2) with Veeam) leaving all default and with Nutanix Hardware and i get the error below:No Optimal Solution found for following cluster(s) due to:MineModel not supported for standalone backup mineIn order to generate an optimal solution, please try modifying the workload requirements and/or sizing options. You can also try switching the Sizer Policy profile or re-configuring the selected Sizer Policy profile. If i try the same with HYCU it works as expected.Any suggestion?Thank you

Hi! I have two doubts related to Collector´s vcpu and cpu calculation.1) I couldn't find the information on the vcpu/cpu ratio per VM in Collector's Excel spreadsheet? Please, how is it calculated when we perform workload upload per VM? 2) In Sizer, I performed a manual modeling from Collecto´s Excel spreadsheet information as a “Raw Input” and compared it to the automatic per VM-upload modelling.In the analyzed scenario, the customer has 440 CPU Cores distributed in 19 physical servers/hosts in the current environment (vhost table information)  My calculations/modelling for a “Raw Input” is the same for the overall resources calculated by the automatic per VM upload (RAM, Datastore), except for the total o CPU cores in the cluster.The automatic per-VM upload/calculation was performed with the following settings: As result, the workload was modeled with 552 CPU cores:  Please, why does the per-VM upload have 100 more CPU cores than the existing customer´s environment (552 vs 440 from t

I am curious why when sizing a Splunk workload and increasing the performance profile for the indexers it doesn’t increase the ingest rate per indexer rather than keeping it at 100 GB.  By not doing this, it keeps the same number of indexers Nutanix thinks it needs even though each indexer has more CPU/RAM.  I could be missing something simple here, but I would like to hear other thoughts.Capacity Planning Manual: Summary of performance recommendations

I can’t create a new scenario it says: “Install country missing”There is no option for me to input the Install CountryOnly options i have are Scenario Name and Scenario Objects.

Hi. I’m trying to use Nutanix collector 4.0 to collect Hyper-V sizing information, however the following error message is displayed during the scanning phase:“Bad http response returned from the server. Code: 500. Content”I tried to use it with Remote option and locally on a cluster member and the same happens.Running the precheck script it shows these failures on the picture: The user logged in is a Domain Admin and local admin, however the script returns a failure about the user rights. Does anyone know how can I enable the “Basic auth” stated on the script output?I also tried Collector version 3.5.1 with no success.Any tips?

Tengo unas cargas que fueron tomadas con Live Optics para unos nodos que corren Microsoft Hyper-V,¿Cuál puede ser la forma más eficiente para subir estas cargas a Nutanix Sizing? ¿Qué método oficial tiene Nutanix para manejar estos escenarios? ¿Existe documentación oficial de Nutanix donde se pueda aprender cómo subir las cargas de Live Optics?

Hi.I have access only to advanced configurations, but I would like to recover some old configurations that are now in basic mode.Last week, I could see my basic configurations once, but not anymoreHow can I get access to my basic configurations?Thanks.

Hello everyone, I am inviting user to my created space and whenever I click on invite it prompts“Sharing is not allowed with a prospect user“. Kindly let me know how can I sort this out ? Thank you

Hi,i have the the output from RVTools and finding a way to import it into collector for sizing purpose. any idea how?

How to Import Live optics excel using  import workloads  in sizer

I would like to create a new scenario with Lenovo HW or modify one with NX HW to Lenovo but I don’t how I could that. Anyone could tell me if is it possible?

Hello everyone!Just started playing around with the Nutanix Sizer and I am having issues creating a Citrix VDI Workload. No matter what setting is  selected, I am unable to save the changes. Above the webpage I get this error:“You can not add/edit advanced workload options for basic user”Am I missing something obvious here?

I am trying to import Nutanix Collector (latest available version) excel to sizer. The excel contains a large number of “PoweredOff” virtual machines. I want to make the sizing based on performance figures only for “PoweredOn” virtual machines. If I choose “CPU: performance” I get a warning message:“Data being imported contains one or more VMs that were powered ON during the collection period and reported CPU utilization. We recommend you to size both Powered ON & Powered OFF VMs.” The warning it self doesn’t make much sense. Maybe it should read“Data being imported contains one or more VMs that were powered OFF during the collection period and did not report CPU utilization. We recommend you to size both Powered ON & Powered OFF VMs.” Additionally “Upload” button is grayed out and I cannot proceed with the sizing. IMHO the “Upload” button should not be disabled.

I have successfully run collection (version 4.0) in Hyper-v and export ZIP. When i upload the ZIP to collector.nutanix.com, The VM Name becomes garbled, The original VM NAME was Traditional ChineseCan you help me?  Thank you! 

Hello Team,Hope your are all doing well  We need to size a New Nutanix Cluster for Disaster Recovery purposes of an existing cluster (04 x NX-8155-G7 with AHV).Before that, we need to scale the Existing platform by adding more compute ressources to support additionnal workloads. We were able to do it easily : we used a Scenario in Prism Central and added the workloads and clicked on the “Recommend” Button (please see pic below) :  Now, we are not able to do the following :Size the additionnal storage related to retention of local snapshots (for the Production Cluster) Size the Cluster of the DR Site : We used Nutanix collector to collect performance of the existing platform and next we exported the Excel Output file and imported it to Nutanix Sizer. We faced from the following :We are not able to inject the additionnal Workloads for the Production cluster We are not able to add the addtionnal storage related to retention of remote snapshots.Please do you have any idea to correctly size

Hello All,Due to an ongoing project; Yesterday I subscribed on 30 days trial of Nutanix Sizer. Everything till the creation of scenario went well but facing issues when I try to add workload into my scenario. Under Workload addition form, have entered and saved all required info but unfortunately workload is not adding into my scenario. Tried almost all options but no luck. Please advise and help to get it resolve.

I have successfully run Collector against our Prism Central which manages about 22 clusters.  It took a long time to run but after it was done, with no error messages, there was no data.  How can I start to troubleshoot this?  I did find this in the logs…. 2021-11-04 13:56:33,288  INFO:  connecting..2021-11-04 13:56:33,304  INFO:  Initializing data collection2021-11-04 13:56:33,304  INFO:  Collecting datacenter data2021-11-04 13:56:33,304  INFO:  Collecting vm data2021-11-04 13:56:41,018  INFO:  'NoneType' object is not subscriptable2021-11-04 14:05:19,187  INFO:  Invalid response while getting clusters2021-11-04 14:05:19,187  INFO:  "{\"Prism Central\":[\"0005a047-ec19-f45f-4962-ac1f6b3bd5cd\",\"00056880-2345-ae87-7622-ac1f6b61a91e\",\"000534cb-9366-4532-0000-00000000c24c\",\"0005883e-3aa8-a7ce-0000-000000028588\",\"0005b846-f7d2-6368-1cd9-3cecef19a428\",\"00058c64-2e36-5f32-0000-000000028204\",\"000538ca-9aa8-9183-2c4c-0cc47ac328b5\",\"0005b8ab-8d4e-03c1-59a3-3cecef19c0c6\",\"0005869

Nutanix collector fails to log into Prism central. This is the error I am getting. “Failed to login. Possible reasons could be having insufficient access permissions, missing binaries or failure to execute scripts” Has anyone seen this issue?

Collector 3.5.1, Windows version. The customer has collected the data from a 2-node Hyper-V cluster and I can open the excel and browse through it - it looks right to me, I see all the VMs etc. When I try and import into sizer, I get “Some unknown error occurred”.  Any ideas?  There’s nothing particularly strange or unusual in the data that I can think of.  In the meantime I will probably try and manually add the equivalent workload. Thanks, Allan.

Hey everyone, is anyone experiencing issues with Sizer today (31/8/21)?  When I login all my scenarios have gone (including others shared with me), and if I try and create a new scenario it just sticks on the new scenario details page...

Hi Nutanix Sizer tool development team,If you have possible, Could you enhance of notice mail function when the Sizer tool updated ?

I’m attempting to import an RVTools into the Sizer tool. I want to exclude some of the VMs before import by editing the RVTools file.  When I edit the file and try to import, I get an error “Host cluster cell not found”There are more than 300 VMs, so I can’t import on the VM level and just disable the individual workloads there.Any ideas or methods anyone would suggest to editing the RVTools beforehand? Thanks in advance!
