In this feedback report, I’ll share my experience with Nutanix Centreon monitoring and explain why you should stop monitoring your cluster solely through its Virtual IP (VIP) and switch to a granular node-by-node strategy.

While Hyperconvergence (HCI) and Public Cloud seem to be the norm today, it is crucial to understand that 3-Tier was the backbone of enterprise IT for nearly 20 years. To understand this architecture is to understand where we come from, and why we sought to change it.

You don't wake up one morning deciding to drop nearly 14,000 euros just to please the planet. It is a calculation. My goal was twofold: to secure part of my energy costs for the next 20 years and the technical pleasure of managing my own production.

2025 is coming to an end, and if I had to summarize this year, it wouldn't be a simple hot migration, but a true architectural evolution, with a few production incidents.

You might think that over time, you get used to it. That after two years, opening the email announcing the results becomes a mere administrative formality. Well, I must confess: not at all.

I won’t lie to you: when you’ve had a taste of gold, bronze has a peculiar flavor. Last year, I had the immense pride of finishing first in the "Top Bloggers" ranking of the Nutanix Technology Champion (NTC) program.

Nutanix has just released a trio of major updates into the wild: AOS 7.5, AHV 11.0, and Prism Central 7.5. Here's my unfiltered technical analysis of what awaits you.

In this new blog post, we will see all the main Nutanix AHV CLI commands that allow you to perform certain checks on your virtual machines, using command lines.

Here is an article that describes how to connect a PA-VM gateway to the OVHcloud VRACK provided with your Nutanix cluster in order to connect it to the internet.

NTC 2026 registrations are open !

I developed a tool that calculates the upgrade path to update my HYCU controllers...

Behind this musical reference lies the annual event organized by Nutanix France: Nutanix .NEXT on Tour!

In this article, I share my complete feedback on the complete reinstallation of a Nutanix cluster at OVHcloud.

In this new article, we will discuss managing storage containers via CLI commands on your Nutanix clusters...

It's been about ten days since vacation, and vacation means rest! And that includes the blog…

In this new blog post, we'll now see how CLI commands can help us create or modify networks in our Nutanix cluster…

In this article, I offer a summary of the best commands for performing all network configuration checks on a Nutanix cluster, whether at the cluster, host, CVM, or virtual machine level.

The 1.2.5 version of VirtIO is available, and here are the new features and bug fixes!

I've been wanting to try it for a while but I didn't have the hardware at my disposal... Anyway, I made a Nutanix Foundation on node from a Steamdeck.

Whether you're selling the cluster to a third party or repurposing it for another purpose, sometimes you need to destroy a Nutanix cluster. Here's how to do it…

This is one of the operations that I recommend performing on an OVHcloud cluster just after delivery: replacing the pre-deployed gateway that will allow your cluster to go out onto the internet.

Nutanix X-Ray is a testing and benchmarking tool designed by Nutanix to evaluate the performance and resilience of hyperconverged infrastructures (HCI).

From May 7th to 9th, 2025, I was invited as a Nutanix Technology Champion to the Nutanix .NEXT event in Washington DC and was awarded for my work on the blog...

I worked with a client who has a large number of fairly old nodes in production at their remote sites. Unfortunately, they are facing a problem performing AOS and AHV installations on them because the hardware is not officially supported by Nutanix.

In this new blog post, I'll explain how to monitor your Nutanix cluster using Centreon using SNMP v3.

In this blog post, I'll explain how to monitor your Nutanix cluster on Centreon using SNMP v2c.

I invite you to discover the Nutanix offerings on OVHcloud and how they can help transform business infrastructures.

In the last blog post, I told you about my second day at .NEXT 2025, but there is one element I intentionally omitted to mention…

After a rather busy first day, I took advantage of the time difference to be at the convention center as soon as it opened to make the most of the second day.

Here's a recap of my first day at .NEXT 2025, which took place in Washington DC from May 7-9, 2025!

It couldn't be a keynote without mentioning the NC2-validated cloud providers (Nutanix Cloud Clusters) and making an announcement!

Unlike generative AI, which simply produces content in response to queries, agentic AI proactively plans, makes decisions, and executes actions.

Rajiv took advantage of .NEXT to share some statistics regarding the Nutanix Move migration tool.

We already heard about this announcement at Tech Connect in San Jose last October: the imminent arrival of Nutanix Central On-Premise!

Among the existing End-user Computing solutions on the market, we're all familiar with Citrix, which has been available and supported by Nutanix for some time.

Rajiv's first topic was the modernization of our infrastructure, with a major announcement regarding our platform architecture.

This year again, I was lucky enough to be invited, due to my status as Nutanix Technology Champion, to the annual event organized by Nutanix: .NEXT 2025!

While working on one of our clients' clusters, I encountered a major problem: the impossibility of deleting a storage container that had previously been emptied of its contents…

Here is a quick procedure to install Nutanix Guest Tools manually on your Linux virtual machines (Rocky Linux, RHEL, CentOS…) using the command line.

The world of hybrid computing and multicloud is about to experience a major moment with the Nutanix .NEXT 2025 event, which will take place from May 7 to 9 in Washington DC.

It's finally complete! After about thirty hours spent installing, configuring, and testing a lab environment, and writing each article, my ultimate guide to backing up a Nutanix cluster using the HYCU backup solution is finally complete

This is a problem many people encounter when first deploying a virtual machine on Microsoft Windows: storage detection. I'll show you how to deploy a Windows virtual machine on Nutanix AHV.

As I mentioned in my article about updating the HYCU controller, you can't upgrade from version 4.7.0 to 5.1.0, for example. To reach the latest version, you'll have to follow upgrade paths…

I accidentally deleted one of the virtual machines in my cluster. Luckily, I can restore it with HYCU!

Everything has been configured to allow the backup of the virtual machines in our cluster, we will now see how to protect the virtual machines using the backup policies that we have just created.

Now that our HYCU controller is configured and up to date, we now need to protect our virtual machines…

HYCU being a backup software monitored and supported by the publisher, updates will have to be installed regularly.

Now that the Nutanix cluster is added to the HYCU software, we need to add the backup target to which the files will be sent.

After deploying the HYCU controller and initializing it, you need to add your Nutanix cluster as a source of virtual machines to backup.

In the previous blog post, I created and started the HYCU virtual machine. Now let's move on to the initial configuration of the Backup Controller.
