VeeamON 2024 - Use Code "COMMUNITY10" for 10% Off!
just put this together -http://tape.skitchlab.com
This is great, thank you for setting this up :)
As an update on this, I was able to install Proxmox on bare metal NUC with 1 - 1TB NVMe drive, then nest Nutanix CE on that with 3 drives created. This makes it not need the USB boot drive, and now I can learn 2 in 1 :) Although I have Nutanix VM taking all the resources. I may reconfigured my other NUCs this way.
thanks for the shout out on the lab work :)
Skitch210 - first part Skitch is the nickname for the drummer in the movie “That thing you do” - my wife tagged me with that. and 210 is my motocross racing number :)
Another update, I found a fix for nesting on VMware for those that want to learn without adding new hardware. When you create the VM in VMware, choose Linux-CentOS 7-64bit, 32GB ram, 64,200,500 hard drives, and set the Expose hardware assisted virtualization to guest OS check box under CPU. Set access Promiscuos mode on the network switch, and the key to pass serial numbers to the hard drives (which is what I missed before) edit the VM Options - Advanced - Configuration Parameters and add disk.EnableUUID = True. Then Nutanix will see serial numbers on the disks and a 3 node cluster will work nested.
nice detail and much needed content
very nice :) Now get a 3-node going. I have a 3 node and a 1 node. Only issue I am at now is issue upgrading the 1 node which has a USB boot. Working through trying to fix that.
Great stuff Tim, top notch quality video and content.
@jos.maliepaard I do have it setup with VBR and performing backups and restores. Need to make sure you have the cluster IP and iSCSI IP setup for the VBR deployment to work. @Geoff Burke I am also having a resource issue trying to get Prism Central deployed. Trying to get it deployed to my big VMware host. I am a fan on NUCs from eBay. Gen 10s can be purchased for a decent price and can handle up to 64GB of ram. I am starting to work with the Rest API for auto restores into AHV
great post and timing. Was just documenting this for a potential customer to use with CDP for testing.
So on this topic, Azure Stack is an Azure location and I feel that is MS forward for Hyper-V platform future anyway. Looking at support and long time Veeam integration, AHV I feel would be the next option. As a recovery location and can automate the testing and failover of their native built in replication, which is similar to a storage based replication integration. And as always, there is the option currently to use the Custom steps with Powershell scripts :)
