Hello,
i've realized a project with two nutanix cluster and Horizon VDI with static desktop.Desktop are replicated with protection domain between two sites.
Someone know if in Nutanix there is a method to add automatically desktops to a protection domain?
Thank you and best regards
Luca

you could just replicate the user disks.... the restore could be ugly but something worth looking into

I know what you're talking about (basically a "policy" based approach to replicating desktops as they come online), and we don't have that today; however, If you're up for a small bit of scripting, this is doable.

I've seen a post over in the Scripts section of the community that does something very similar, don't recall what it was titled offhand, but a slight bit of digging should reveal some goodness.
