Nutanix - How to Delete an uploaded Image Service File

I have recently started using Nutanix CE in my Home Lab and can say that I am really liking the product. 

I currently have a single node running on an Intel NUC (NUC6i3SYH). While this current setup is not that powerful and doesn't provide any failover capability, it does provide a nice cheap way to test and have a good play around with the Nutanix features and functionality.

Recently I have been using the Image Service to upload a few ISO images that I want to be able to mount to my VM's. One issue that I came across was that while part way through an image upload I had a network outage..... this resulted in the image partially uploading and left me with no ability to delete the partial image from within the Prism web interface.

NSClient++ - Check McAfee Status

I wanted to have Nagios monitor the status of McAfee Virus-Scan on our servers. I wanted to ensure that I knew of any installations where the Agent, Virus-Scan, Engine or DATs were not at a version that they should be.

To that end I decided to write a bit of PowerShell code to use in conjunction with NSClient++ that we use for monitoring our Windows servers.

You can download the PowerShell script from GitHub here:-

Nutanix Cluster is under-replicated

I've recently come across an error when trying to upgrade Nutanix Acropolis from version 5.0.1 to 5.0.2.

The error that was returned within Prism was - "Cluster is currently under-replicated".

This message occurs when the health-state of the Nutanix Cluster is on Level "warning" or "error" or the data resiliency state is not "Ok".
