Clarification on new CE Install, drive layout

Hello All,I am installing Nutanix on a four node cluster. Each cluster has three HDDs, 1 NVMe SSD and 1 SATADOM for the OS. I was intending for the SSD to be my hot tier and the HDD to serve as the cold tier.When installing I see that it’s required for the CVM to be assigned to a disk. This seems to indicate that I will likely need to add an additional drive to the layout to dedicate to the CVM or does the CVM storage double as the cache tier? I do have an additional spot for a second SATADOM that I could use for the CVM storage however I cannot find any guidance on its required size.Thanks in advance!https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Nutanix-Community-Edition-Getting-Started-v2_0:top-sysreqs-ce-r.htmlStorage devices, Cold Tier 500 GB or greater available Maximum 18 TB (3 x 6 TB HDDs) Hard disk drive (HDD) or solid-state drive (SSD) for cold-tier storage Note: Ensure that the drives are attached to the node through a Host Bus Adapter.

PS NX-3460-G6

Hi everyone, I have an NX-3460-G6 that was turned off yesterday by accidentally unplugging the power cables. I tried to turn it back on, but the power supplies (PSU) have green LEDs flashing (the other LED is off). Now from the documentation I see that it could be one of two causes: 1) "When AC is present only: 12VSB on (PS off) of PS in sleep state (the LED should flash at i Hz). 2) Power supply firmware updating mode (the LED should flash at 2 Hz).

Nutanix Disaster Recovery

Alternatives to AWS for Async DR

I’m currently backing up to AWS with AWS set up as Async DR site. However, the price that AWS is charging has dramatically gone up. Are there any alternatives to AWS? I don’t need to run any VMs on the remote site, just a remote site to store my snap shots and the ability to restore easily. Thanks!

LCM Dark Site issues on Windows server

I have installed IIS on Windows servers, performed LCM framework in 2 phases for version 2.7 and after that was able to set LCM to use Dark site and to point to my IIS web server http;//MyIP/release. That allowed my to run inventory. However I can’t update any other component. I have downloaded LCM packages for AOS, foundation, FLOW, etc extracted with proper WinZip version or embedded tar. Have correct folders structure as per LCM Dark Site guide, but still LCM do not see any component for upgrade. What else I can do?And for sure for example my AOS and AHV requires update. Permissions checked, MIME types checked. CVMs and PC can talk to web server. Compatibility bundle has been extracted and copied to root folder /release. Don’t know what else might be the problem. Most likely something silly. Please help. And just FYI, direct upload to PE is not an option for me. I have many clusters in DarkSite and need to use web server as a repository.
