Add AHV Cluster to Proxy Appliance Infrastructure

After you install Veeam Availability for Nutanix AHV, you must add the Nutanix AHV cluster to the proxy appliance infrastructure.

Limitations

• You can add only one Nutanix AHV cluster per proxy appliance.
• You cannot use Prism Central IP addresses to define the AHV cluster in the proxy appliance settings.
• [For Nutanix Community Edition 2017.07.20] When you add a cluster to the proxy appliance infrastructure, use the built-in admin account for authentication.
