Alternative reason for Replica server failed to authorized the connection error 80070005

$
0
0

I wanted to put this out there to save the next person who runs into this will save time on researching it as I found nothing at all relating to this.  I can successfully enabled Replication between two systems for some VMs but not for others and the error 80070005 was reported for them.

Long story short if you're getting "Replica server failed to authorized the connection" with error 80070005 and none of the other threads and posts sound like your issue check the VM IDs.  If you've ever exported a VM from one machine to another and then imported it and told it to keep the same ID instead of creating a new one then that's the issue.

You wont find the answer on the machine initiating the replication but on the machine accepting it. 

Event Logs -> Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> Hyper-V-VMMS

You should find Event ID 29284 errors that will give you the answer.  Even though the VMs reside in different locations on the systems and have different names their VM IDs are identical.  The machine your attempting to replicate to is denying the replication creation process because it does not believe you have the right to modify the VM it has with the exact same ID.

The only method of changing a VM ID I know of is to export and then import the VM having it create a new VM ID.  After this has been done there is no longer a VM ID collision and you can enable replication.

Creating checkpoint causes VM to restart

$

Just wondering if anyones experienced this?

I have a customer with a 4 Node 2012R2 Hyper-V Cluster.

Sometimes performing a checkpoint will cause a VM to reboot. It's happened to both VM's running windows 2008R2 and 2012R2 with latest versions of integration tools installed.

Anyone ever seen this behaviour?

Thanks

Hyper-v cluster with core switch downtime... what to do?

$
0
0

Is there a way to essentially "pause" the hyper-v cluster and keep things running but do NOT attempt to failover anything for any reason?

We have one Procurve 5412zl switch with two c7000 enclosures. In each c7000 enclosure there are two switches that connect all the blade servers within the enclosure. Those two switches are interconnected internally so they can communicate within the enclosure.

So if the core switch goes down the hyper-v servers in the same c7000 enclosure can still communicate but they will be seperated from the others in the other enclosure.

So we have 4 hyper-v servers in one enclosure and 3 in another. If i disconnect the core switch i'm wondering what will happen (if I reboot the switch which is what I need to do).

How can I avoid having to shut down everything for this and just tell hyper-v cluster to not do anything when the network is lost?

Windows Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 - VM over network share on FreeNAS

Good day IT folks,

Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 has a feature on creating VMs over the network share (SMB 3.0). 

I tried this on a network share on FreeNAS, my SMB version is 3.0, but I get some error creating VHD/VHDX on the network share. Is the error something to do with my FreeNAS?

i have one DC in my LAN environment and IP scheme is 192.168.0.1/24, yesterday i got another server and installed vm via hyper v on it. the ip allocated to this vm is 172.16.10.10, my simple task is to join the vm to my DC. my physical resources are limited. so i have installed RRAS 2012 on hyper v server which has 2 two nics. one nic ip is 192.168.0.118 and the other is 172.16.10.1, both are connected to switch.

i have configure the RRAS via selecting the option "secure connection b/w two networks". then i assign GW to my vm 172.16.10.10 and can ping both nics ip but unable to ping my DC ip, and cant join this vm into DC. can some one guide me towards the right direction if there is something missing ? tnx

Hi

I support 3 sites and would like two of them running hyper v to replicate back to the same replica site and server. Is this possible to have two hyper v sites replicate back to the same server based at another location or do they require their own individual replica server?

Thanks in advance

Network Connectivity works in only 1 VM on Windows 2012 Server

$

I have an issue with a Windows 2012 Standard server running Hyper-V in a Cluster that will only allow one VM use networking. The server is a Dell R710 with 4 x Broadcom network ports and 4 x Intel network ports. I have the 4 Intel ports used for SAN storage, and the Broadcom’s for Hyper-V. I have tried with Windows 2012 NIC teaming, Broadcom teaming, and also without teaming on a single network interface. I currently have two VM’s, both are attached to the same External Switch, and both see the virtual nic, but only one gets network/internet connectivity.

I have verified the Bios and all firmware is up to date, and all 2012 updates are in place. I’ve deleted the virtial switch and re-created, removed connectivity to System Center 2012… aside from rebuilding this server, I do not know what to try next.

As far as I can see I am not receiving any errors. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I’ve built a few 2012 Hyper-V server, clustered and connected to System Center, and have not seen this issues before.

Hello,

Please advise if my understanding is correct:

We plan to develop an ASP.Net web application/OLAP DB with Visual Studio 2012, SQL Server 2012 Enterprise and SSDT.

Our DEV machine has all required software (above).

Our TEST machine has Windows Server 2008 R2 but no SQL Server instance.

Our PROD server has Windows Server 2012 but no SQL Server instance.

Can you please advise what is required for a deployment to both TEST and PROD?

Will we require a new SQL Server installation on both machines?

Can we use a Virtual Machine on both TEST and PROD environment to replicate our DEV environment?

With our current situation, what would be our best method?

Appreciate in advance.

A new server install running hyperv RC1.

When i try to add a .vhd to a VM machine, it returns the following error.:

'DOTNET83' failed to add device 'Microsoft Virtual Hard Disk'. (Virtual machine ID 48B19B7B-650B-4395-8FF3-1CA15219CEFB)

'DOTNET83': The file 'D:\Virtual Machines\Production\New Virtual Hard Disk.vhd' does not have the required security settings. Error: 'General access denied error' (7864368). To fix the security settings, remove the device associated with this file from the virtual machine and then add it again. (Virtual machine 48B19B7B-650B-4395-8FF3-1CA15219CEFB)

'DOTNET83': Cannot get information for attachment 'D:\Virtual Machines\Production\New Virtual Hard Disk.vhd'. (Virtual machine ID 48B19B7B-650B-4395-8FF3-1CA15219CEFB)

This is a fresh server throwing this error when creating a new vm.

Anyone encountered something like this before?

Hello!

im nu here and im nu to the use of Hyper-V so please be tolerant :P

The problem is that I can't copy and paste or cut and paste files or directories from desktop (or other locations ) to an opened virtual machine's window, even dragging the object with the mouse, the pointer become the prohibited icon.

So how can I activate this function (if it is possible)?

Read you Soon

Consolidating Snapshots in 2008 R2

I've read several blogs about consolidating snapshots, but haven't settled on a satisfying answer.  I have a tree of snapshots under a VM.  I want to keep the latest one in the tree (at the bottom) while removing older snapshots to remove virtual disk files and get back some space.  I think I understand that snapshots work a "difference" principle.  Can I use Hyper-V manager to delete snapshots in the middle of a tree?  Would also appreciate your pointing me to a definitive reference.

Slow storage migration on converged 3-node network cluster

$
0
0

I've created a 3-node Hyper-V cluster (2012 R2) out of 3 former standalone Hyper-V host servers, using a converged networking model andfollowing this setup almost exactly.  I've added an iSCSI NAS (QNAP) set up as a CSV, and thefirst VM that I live migrated to cluster storage took 11+hours for about 1.5 GB of VHD files(!).  There shouldn't have been any existing cluster-related traffic to even load-balance, and a straight copy of a file that size to the NAS should take < 20 sec.  Briefly, here's my config:

  • NAS has (4) teamed 1Gb NICs (in testing, I'm getting ~112 MB/s to a hosted file share).
  • NAS is on our main internal network (10.10.10.x) because it will also be used for minor file sharing duties.
  • Each cluster server has (4) 1Gb NICs.  I've added 3 of them to an LBFO team without management OS access, and reserved the 4th for remote host access.
    Question: Is this necessary?  Unfortunately, when I enabled management OS access on the LBFO team adapter, each NIC on each server grabbed an IP via DHCP, and I want to avoid that.
  • Misc. acronyms:  MPIO is set up and working per QNAP's docs, the servers/NICs support VMQ and RSS, but not RDMA or SR-IOV.  I turned on Jumbo Frames across the fabric, but I ran into issues and the cluster seemed to break - turning it back off seemed to fix things (I think it may be because QNAP supports a frame size of 9000 and the Broadcom NICs show 9014).
    Question: I assume server restarts aren't needed - it's just a matter of turning on Jumbo Frames on the NAS, switches, and host NICs, correct?

TechEd webcasts and the dark depths of the Interwebz make me think my converged configuration is supported.  With that said, my key questions are:

  1. Most importantly: It looks like MPIO & iSCSI is supported with LBFO-teamed NICs if you use the MS solution and not a vendor's.  However, should I be trying to do afully converged solution that uses all 4 NICs, and for which there's a virtual Storage VLAN on the virtual switch for my NAS (like the MS best practices example, but with iSCSI instead of SMB, if that's possible)?Or should I dedicate 2 of the physical NICs to the NAS, and have the other 2 NICs in a team that handles the rest of the roles?
  2. Should I only have 1 MPIO session per 1 NIC in the team, or does that matter?
  3. I did add the "Management" virtual network in the sample configuration, but I just realized that's probably redundant with the dedicated "Host Access" NICs that I reserved.  Should I remove that network, or leave it and add the extra NIC to the LBFO team?
  4. Are there additional QoS settings that I should check/tweak?  Should I shift minimum bandwidth weightings just for the period that I'll be migrating VMs?
  5. Is there any way to get all of my clustered virtual networks imported into SCVMM 2012 R2 for management?  The lowest level of entity that I can manage in a UI seems to be a virtual switch.  That's fine, but if MS is encouraging adoption of converged networking, I would expect their tooling and UIs to have better support for it.

It seems as if the cluster is running fine in general, but the slow storage migration is killing me, and I assume it can only get slower as I add new VMs to cluster storage.  My best guess is that the virtual networks aren't set up properly somehow...thoughts?


DMZ in Hyper-V?

$
0
0

I'm not certain if this is possible but here's what I'm hoping to do.

I have 3 windows servers - a DC, a remote/secondary DC, and an Exchange Server. The exchange server is on the most powerful of the machines and I would like to set up a DMZ for all domain devices. My question is this, can I set up Hyper-V on the current Exchange server, install another server 2012 server on a vm, make that vm act as a DMZ/have the exchange edge server setup? i'm uncertain if this would actually help to secure anything or not, since while the exchange server has 2 nics, it would still be connected from our swich which is directly connected to the modem/wan.

Let me know! Thanks!


Adding a Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 host (no domain) to a Windows 2012 R2 / System Center Standard 2012 Virtual Machine Manager fabric

I want to add a Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 host (no domain) to a Windows 2012 R2 / System Center Standard 2012 Virtual Machine Manager fabric or host manager not sure.

Should I first have the Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 host (my bare-metal compute) added to the new domain on the Windows 2012 Host machine? And then add the Hyper-V Server core host to be managed by Virtual Machine Manager?

There are 2 physical machines; 1. Hyper-V2008 Server R2 (workgroup) (2 nics) AND 2. Windows Server 2012 R2 Update (Data Center) with System Center R2 2012 Virtual Machine Manager...

I will be also adding another compute host running Hyper-V 2012 R2 Update that I want to add the to System Center host domain and be managed.

Thanks in advance!

Not enough memory error in Hyper-V

I have got and error tring to run Hyper-V in Windows Server 2012 r2. I have 2 gb of RAM and it says it is not enough memory. I used this official advice for Windows 8.1, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2911380 , refused. In the it says, actualy, about DWORD that is 32 bit. I looked again in Regedit, the MemoryReserve value was gone. So I took my chances and create a QWORD (64 bit) value with the same name, and it worked. Unfortunaly, I had to reinstall the OS and it does work. Tried thoose things several times, deleted and re-added all thoose values. Now I am confused, I wonder if there is any way to make Hyper-V to work?

Hyper-V Host with a total of 4 NICs - Teaming?

$
0
0

Hello, I have a single Windows 2012 R2 server (Host) that will be running 3 VMs for 15 to 20 users. One VM server will be the main domain controller and the other 2 will be a SQL server and a Remote Desktop server.  I have 2 onboard gigabyte adapters and 2 gigabyte adapters on an add-in card, the 4 adapters are the all the same model, just to give you as much info as possible. I’m reading a ton of articles and it’s making my head spin.  The host server will be doing nothing but running the virtual machines and not connected to any domain.  In these articles they talk about having one NIC for the host to do management and some say that you don’t need to do this and can team all of the adapters and then designate a host adapter. The goal for me is to provide the best configuration for performance and reliability. With the changes to Windows 2012 R2, Hyper-V and NIC teaming I may be getting a little confused in my thought process since I haven’t run through this yet, here is what I’m thinking.

  1. Do I just take all 4 adapters and team them on the host and set the host IP address on the newly created team?
  2. Create a new VM switch and attach it to the teamed adapter.
  3. Create a new VM Network adapter for the DC, SQL and Remote Desktop VM servers with minimum bandwidth weight specified.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated before I start loading up the server.  Thanks Ryan.



"We couldn't complete the features, Undoing changes"

I have a Windows Server 2012 R2.

I have tried to install RD Connection Broker, but the server manager says it need a restart.

At restart is says: "We couldn't complete the features, Undoing changes"

I think it may be Hiper-V not fully installed. Tried to remove this feature, but I keep ending up with server manager info: "needs restart" and then at restart "We couldn't complete the features, Undoing changes".

I've tried to use the tool "DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth" that says "the corruption was repaired", but still the problem remains.

I can't add or remove any feature on server manager.

Thansk in advance for any help.

Internal and external switches on server 2012 r2

this is driving me nuts.

I have a vm with an internal and external switch.

I am trying to get backups to route to the host machine using the internal switch only.

I've gone all over priorities and the routes are all fine but the data will constantly go over the external switch.

If i disable external switch traffic goes over internal switch just fine.

I've read about the automatic detection of least cost routing on the internal switch but just can not get it to run correctly.

please help

Doug
