A Field Guide covering the installation and initial configuration of Cisco Compute Hyperconverged with Nutanix systems using Intersight Managed Mode for Cisco UCS X-Series modular blade servers and C-series rackmount servers. Intersight Managed Mode (IMM) is the term for X-series and C-series servers connected to Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnects, which are managed entirely via Cisco Intersight. This guide is intended for technical training and educational purposes, for all who wish to install Nutanix on Cisco UCS based hardware following our supported hardware and software integrations and compatibility lists.
As a reference guide, the document presents our best practices and recommendations as of the time of publishing, and will be updated periodically. Please refer to the document history at the beginning to ensure you are using the most current version available.
The most recent revision, v1.2 added information covering IMM for C-series servers, plus additional information regarding role-based access control (RBAC) in Cisco Intersight, how to configure the Fabric Interconnects using Express Setup, and a few other minor improvements. Additionally, our guides are being renamed to help provide consistent naming related to the management modes used in each document.
The first revision, v1.1 added information regarding migrating the Cisco Intersight Appliance from ESXi to AHV when it is used during greenfield deployments. Also added is information regarding the Cisco Intersight Device Connector for Prism Central, enabling inventory, monitoring and alerting of Nutanix clusters within Cisco Intersight. There are numerous other improvements to the document flow, updated screenshots, additional information for troubleshooting and network connectivity requirements, and dozens of edits for additional clarity.
