Cannot Start Nutanix after Installation

Hello, we are currently evaluating Nutanix as an alternative to esxi. To get some hands on experience with the product we wanted to install it on one of our lab servers. However, I was not able to start Nutanix after the installation. For Installation, I followed the following Youtube tutrial as well as the installation procedure mentioned on the Nutanix documentation. I keep always stuck on the step where the cluster needs to be started. After installing and booting into AOS, I first run the command `cluster --cluster_function_list="one_node_cluster" --svm_ips= (CVM IP) create` in order to create a single node cluster as mentioned in the video. After executing the command, I only see the following output: Waiting on 10.100.23.102 (Up, ZeusLeader) to start: SysStatCollector IkatProxy IkatControlPlane SSLTerminator SecureFileSync Medusa DynamicRingChanger Pithos InsightsDB Athena Mercury Mantle Stargate InsightsDataTransfer Ergon GoErgon Cerebro Chronos Curator Prism Hera CIM AlertMan

Nutanix CE Consistantly Fails to Install

Howdy all. I’m trying to install Nutanix CE on a blade server to evaluate it as an alternative to VMWare.

Satadom wearout check

I have an old cluster of 4 NX-8035 nodes running AHV used for testing purposes. The LCM update is failing with sata_dom_wearout_check. Is there anyway to skip that check when running LCM updates? This is old hardware and I wont be replacing any parts, just want to get updates to run.

Clarification on drive configuration for CE

Thank you in advance for any advice. I have checked some other threads but I cant really get a concrete answer. I was looking through the hardware recommendations on this page: https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/details?targetId=Nutanix-Community-Edition-Getting-Started-v2_0:top-sysreqs-ce-r.html and it makes it seem that a CE node requires an HDD. Im envisioning building a three node cluster, each node with the same storage layout, all flash:Boot device: 1x 250GB SSDStorage device, hot tier: 2x 2TB SSDStorage device, cold tier: nothing This would comply with the ‘maximum number of SSD/HDD drives per node is 4’ instruction. I dont want to have any HDDs in the installation. Is the drive layout I presented viable? Cheers!
