Accessing Nutanix Storage Containers for upload/download

 If you need to download/upload files to a storage container:

 

1. Open WinSCP.

2. Connect to the CVM IP using SFTP protocol and port 2222.

3. Login using the admin/prism element credentials.(not nutanix!)

4. Enable the option to show hidden files by going to Options > Preferences > Panels and then selecting the “Show hidden files”  option under the common settings.

 

From here you can either upload or download files to the container.

 

Be carefull with deleting files here, you should not do that via WinSCP, use Nutanix GUI or CLI and only if you know what you do :-)
