As I try to configure Nutanix monitoring it fails with the error below,

Failed to assign monitoring configuration to ActiveGate. Reason: Python datasource fastcheck error: AttributeError(‘ERROR’)

Connectivity is good on the port. Any inputs on what is wrong and how to fix?

Hi&nbsp;[@elpathi](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/60832)&nbsp;,

How are you monitoring Nutanix infraestructure? Have you using a Dynatrace extension for Nutanix or is it a custom extension made in Python?

By default Dynatrace recognizes the hosts virtualized with Nutanix AHV.

(The hosts on my environment are swithed-off nowdays).

Then, you can add to your environment&nbsp;[Nutanix cluster extension](https://www.dynatrace.com/hub/detail/nutanix-clusters/?query=nutanix&filter=all)&nbsp;providing the Prism API URL.

And you have to select an&nbsp;ActiveGate that belong to an [ActiveGate group.](https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/extensions-concepts#activegate-group)

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Elena.
