Setting Up Cluster Name and Virtual IP on the Nutanix CE cluster is a quick tip about changing these important parameters of a Nutanix cluster.
After deploying a Nutanix CE cluster, we recommend setting up a cluster name and virtual IP. Both are straightforward tasks, as we can describe below.
Set Up the Cluster Name
1- Select and access by SSH one CVM of the cluster (only one CVM);
2- Type the following command to set up the cluster name (replace “cluster_name” with your cluster name):
ncli cluster edit-params new-name=cluster_nameSet Up the Cluster Virtual IP
This is the IP that will be used to access the Prism Element interface:
1- Select and access by SSH one CVM of the cluster (only one CVM);
2- Type the following command to set up the cluster Virtual IP (replace “cluster_ip_address” with your IP address):
ncli cluster set-external-ip-address external-ip-address=cluster_ip_addressThat’s it 🙂
