Hi,

Can someone please help me with some questions?

We want to deploy our appliance in nutanix, appliance means , we have iso/ova images which we want to deploy in the nutanix on-premise hypervisor.

Does the standard ova image will work without any issue or there are some considerations i need to take care of ?

If i test it in the cloud cluster and use it without any issue, can i be sure that this works perfectly fine with the on-premise AHV hypervisor? if not what do i need to consider ?

depends on the source of the OVA.  If its a ESX OVA then it probably wont work.  Although OVAs are a open format if the base VM that the OVA has been created from is ESX then it won’t work on AHV 


You can import ova in nutanix via prism central. But if the virtio drivers arent present in it then the vm will not boot in ahv. Ask the ova supplier for this.
