Environment Details

Nutanix Workshops are intended to be run in the Nutanix Hosted POC environment. Your cluster will be provisioned with all necessary images,networks, and VMs required to complete the exercises.

Networking

As we are able to provide three/four node clusters and single node clusters in the HPOC environment, we need to describe each sort of cluster separately. The clusters are setup and configured differently.

The Cluster Password is unique to each cluster and will be provided by the leader of the Workshop.
