All the nimble links point to quickspec

I'm looking for:

1) installation and configuration guide/manuals for HPE Nimble Storage (AF/HF)

2) Best Practice and/or guide to config Nimble Storage in Hyper-V cluster configuration

Thanks, gidisesse

Hi,

Choose Resources > HPE Alletra 6000, Nimble Storage > Documentation, - I can't find Documentation
Is there a way to download all the manuale in pdf ? Links sound be broken for example "https://infosight.hpe.com/InfoSight/media/cms/active/public/pubs_Installation_Guide_.pdf
What about support for Hyper-V 2019 and later releases ? Quickspec talks about Hyper-V without any details about release and https://h20272.www2.hpe.com/spock/index.aspx talks about Window Server until 2022 are you aware of any unsupported scenario ? My AF20 will have 2x 10 GbE iSCSI connection per controller

Thanks,

Hmm. I don't know what the problem may be with your browser getting to the Infosight Nimble Documentation. You should contact Nimble Support with the system serial number. Hopefully they can help you clear things up and get to the Documentation section.

Contacting HPE Nimble Storage Support - 24x7x365
US contact numbers: 877-364-6253 (877-3NIMBLE) / local 408-432-9600
Email to support@nimblestorage.com – will generate a support case – please provide serial numbers and clear description of issue per below guidelines

Almost all of the manuals are in both .WHZ and .PDF formats. Check the link in your browser status bar.

And finally, Infosight Nimble also has a section called the Validated Configuration Matrix. Looking in there, it shows Windows Server 2019 is supported with NimbleOS 5.0.x and newer.
