Nutanix HyperConverged Infrastructure
Last updated on 27 February, 2025Nutanix systems are monitored via SNMPv3. LogicMonitor will auto-discover Nutanix devices provided SNMP is enabled. For more information on enabling SNMP for Nutanix devices, see the Configuring SNMP documentation provided by Nutanix.
Requirements for Nutanix Systems Compatibilty
LogicMonitor Nutanix modules are compatible with Nutanix versions 6.5 and 6.8 and 6.10.
Note: Earlier versions may work but are unsupported by Nutanix. Contact LogicMonitor if you have issues with versions later than what are listed.
Collector version 32.400 or higher.
SMNP must be enabled in the environment.
Adding Resources into Monitoring
Add your SNMP-enabled Nutanix resources into monitoring. For more information on adding resources into monitoring, see Adding Resources.
Import LogicModules
Install all Nutanix LogicModules from the LogicMonitor’s Module Exchange. For more information, see the list of LogicModules in Package. If these LogicModules are already present, ensure you have the most recent version of each module.
Assuming all previous setup requirements have been met, data collection will automatically start once the LogicModules are imported.
