It has nothing to do with the relationship

there are some more beside ahv only and no support

Well, not really.. Nutanix can't provide ESXi as OEM pre-installed

That's one

And the second one

CE is also providing some additional insight into the HW people use and it will make it easier to adopt HPe DL servers for example

@dready that's why it's lab only :-)

@Kees Baggerman no problem, i am absolutely fine with this:)

I can imagine internet break out can be complex in some situations but we use it for telemetries

btw. someone knows if ce 5.1 comes this weekend as expected?

I did see the code checkout being scheduled so I'd assume so

cool 😎

@User it got me intrigued a bit, what would keep you from going to AHV on CE vs ESXi on CE?

https://labratshq.slack.com/archives/C3X7XJDLG/p1494094745248711 What are the major limitations?

@Kees Baggerman I need vSphere. That's all

@User So no direct application or infrastructure requirement? Just trying to make sure you've got all the info you'd need

@dready I don't see those as limitations...

The Minix mini PC is a great little Win10 admin box. Just don't expect to have 30 browser tabs open and stream Netflix at the same time. The 4 x UnifFi Mesh have been good but I just replaced them with 4 x AC Pros. 5 Ghz performance and range is much better with the Pros. Nothing really compares to wired backhaul vs. wireless. It was a pain to make some extra Ethernet runs but well worth it for the performance. And very clean looking install vs. the antennas on the AP Mesh which made the home look more like a warehouse. For my own home I'm now rethinking my in-wall AC APs I'm using to fill dead spots. I like the AC Pro performance much more than the in-walls but I'm concerned about having too many channels overlapping in certain areas. I gotta do some testing. I really love the radiation pattern on the Pros. They've been very flexible on both ceiling and wall installs. Or even sitting on a desk in one case.

@User nothing stopping you from buying hp or Cisco hw and going software only Nutanix...

The only real limitation as CE on see is cluster size 1,3 or 4 nodes. You can't go bigger than that

The problem is the money. I already invested a couple of $$$$ in current lab gear. Would not change it soon.

@User probably there are ways to do it. there are reportings it can be tweaked...

https://labratshq.slack.com/archives/C3X7XJDLG/p1494101463779262 Can you re-explain?

ntnx software stack is available for cisco and announced for hpe

@User the recent announcement for hpe proliant is software only. Same as Cisco.

You can buy ntnx software & bring your own hardware?

yes but has to meet the hardware requirements

Yep hpe & Cisco hw

Just curious, what does the software cost?
