Before rebuilding my Nutanix homelab, here is the inventory: a CE cluster in the garage, two or three test VMs, and everything that was missing.

Three Nutanix dates in October: .NEXT on Tour Paris 2026 at the Carrousel du Louvre on the 7th and 8th, then NTC Tech Connect in San Jose. Where to find me.

My IPMI vanished from the network after an address and VLAN change. Here is how I found it again over IPv6 link-local, on Windows 11 and Rocky Linux.

Lost the IPMI password on a Nutanix or Supermicro node: reset it from the host OS with ipmitool or IPMICFG, with a BMC factory reset as a last resort.

Install Claude Code on Windows with WSL2: Ubuntu setup, Cargo and npm dependencies, the PATH trap, then VS Code integration, step by step.

Invited to Nutanix Tech Connect 2026, October 26-27 at Nutanix HQ in San Jose: what this NTC-only event is and what is on the two-day agenda.

OpenClaw prerequisites on an Ubuntu VM running on Nutanix AHV: NVIDIA drivers, Node.js 24, Ollama with Qwen 2.5, Docker, SearXNG, Homebrew and GCC.

24 caddies to move a 4-node cluster to 2.5-inch SSDs: over €500 and weeks of lead time. So I 3D printed the drive adapters, 20 times cheaper.

Installing OpenClaw on an Ubuntu VM on Nutanix AHV with a Tesla P4 in passthrough: NVIDIA drivers, Node.js, a Caddy reverse proxy and network lockdown.

Why I deployed OpenClaw, the open source AI agent, on my Nutanix AHV cluster, and the tech stack I chose to run a private AI locally.

I built my HYCU Upgrade Path app twice, first with Lovable, then with Gemini: 628 KB of code versus 115 KB, and a clear gap in maintainability.

My 6 kWp solar installation for €13,900: 17.4 MWh produced in two years, how I manage consumption and the real ROI compared with my simulations.

My 2025 review, my first full year as Team Lead at Mikadolabs, the blog's numbers and my technical roadmap for 2026.

Named Nutanix Technology Champion for 2026, my third year in a row: what the NTC program is, what it brings to the blog and my goals for 2026.

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

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

Nutanix on OVHcloud: replace the default gateway with a Palo Alto PA-VM, from downloading the qcow2 image to deploying the VM and its basic configuration.

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…

Day 2 of Nutanix .NEXT 2025: a demo-driven keynote (hybrid cloud, air-gapped cyber resilience, cloud native, agentic AI), a quick certification and the party.

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!

Nutanix .NEXT 2025 keynote on agentic AI: how it differs from generative AI and what Nutanix Enterprise AI brings to deploying agents.

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!

Nutanix .NEXT 2025 keynote: Dell PowerFlex external storage supported with compute-only nodes, and Pure Storage FlashArray in Early Access from summer 2025.

Nutanix .NEXT 2025 keynote on End User Computing: multi-cluster Citrix VDI on AHV and Omnissa Horizon support coming in Global Access by the end of 2025.

Invited as a Nutanix Technology Champion to .NEXT 2025 in Washington DC: the trip from France, a day as a tourist and picking up my event pass.

Nutanix .NEXT 2025 runs May 7-9 in Washington DC: why attend, the announced highlights and my own schedule for the event.

Change the VLAN of a Nutanix AHV cluster: tag the br0 bridge with ovs-vsctl on the host, then run change_cvm_vlan on the CVM. Beware of a known AOS 6.8 bug.

This is a question I am regularly asked: "with which cluster do you perform your tests for your articles?". So here is what my Nutanix homelab looks like…

Switch a Nutanix cluster to SSH key authentication: generate keys with PuTTYgen, add the public key in Prism, test, then turn on Cluster Lockdown.

Creating a subnet on a Nutanix AHV cluster from Prism Element or Prism Central, with a VLAN ID and built-in IP address management if needed.

Do you want to improve your Linux diagnostics or kill time while waiting for your infrastructure to reboot? I have the solution !

Recently, my Ubiquiti USW-Pro-24-PoE switch had some connection issues with my Unifi console.

Hardening an SSH server through sshd_config: port, root login, allowed users, session timeouts, SSHv2 only, X11 and SFTP off, brute-force protection.
