Nutanix on a Mac

HCI platform; AHV hypervisor + Prism management · Containers

Nutanix is a hyperconverged infrastructure platform: the AHV hypervisor with distributed storage, managed by Prism Element (per-cluster) or Prism Central (multi-cluster). Both listen on :9440 over HTTPS with self-signed certificates by default. FrontierStack monitors a cluster through the REST API; Prism Element v2.0 (/PrismGateway/services/rest/v2.0/cluster, Basic auth) reports cluster name, node count, redundancy state and alerts. Note Nutanix has announced that legacy v0.8/v1/v2/v3 APIs are deprecated from the Q4-CY2026 release, so new work should target the v4 namespaced APIs (/api/clustermgmt/v4.x/config/clusters, requiring PC 7.3 / AOS 7.3), which also support X-Ntnx-Api-Key header auth. Community Edition runs Prism Element and exposes the same v2 API.
