Rescanning Nutanix AHV Server

Veeam Backup for Nutanix AHV retrieves information about the Nutanix AHV resources from the Prism Central or Nutanix AHV cluster. However, the data synchronization process may take some time to complete. If you make any changes to the Nutanix AHV environment and want both the Veeam Backup & Replication console and the Nutanix AHV backup appliance web console to display the changes immediately, you can rescan the Prism Central or Nutanix AHV cluster manually.

To rescan the Prism Central or Nutanix AHV cluster, do the following:

  1. Open the Backup Infrastructure view.
  2. In the inventory pane, select Managed Servers > Nutanix AHV.
  3. In the working area, select the Nutanix AHV cluster and click Rescan on the ribbon, or right-click the Nutanix AHV cluster and select Rescan.

Tip

In the System window, you can track the progress of the rescan session. You can close the window and check session details later as described in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide, section Viewing History Statistics..
