Hi,

We are using Hyper-V on Windows Server 2012. We have three virtual servers defined under Hyper-V. One of these is our terminal server and it is re-starting every couple of days without any reason. I have gone through the event logs. There is no event recorded 15 mins before the server re-starts. Hyper-V records the following event details :

Host-Server Error : 18590 Critical Microsoft-Windows-Hyper-V-Worker Microsoft-Windows-Hyper-V-Worker-

'Terminal-Server123' has encountered a fatal error.  The guest operating system reported that it failed with the following error codes: ErrorCode0: 0xD1, ErrorCode1: 0xFFFFFFF0, ErrorCode2: 0x2, ErrorCode3: 0x1, ErrorCode4: 0x44D2C22.  If the problem persists, contact Product Support for the guest operating system.  (Virtual machine ID 3A25CCF9-BC65-4422-A69B-A629E719140A)

Can someone push me in the direction of a probable solution ?

Hi there,

 

I am trying to increase the display resolution to 1600x1050 for my virual server (Hyper-v), but the max I can get is 1280x1024.

I installed the Integration services and all the updates for the host os (win 2008 Enterprise) and guest os (win 2003 R2 Enterprise).

 

any idea?

 

Thanks,

Hey,

We are trying to set the correct settings for VMQ on 2012 R2 on our physical servers.

Switch settings, Independent mode, Dynamic.

CPU, HT 2x12, lp 48.

Receive queues is 15 per port, 2x10GB.

Per default it sets to base 0, max 16. This seems to work fine except that it reports alot of errors in the event logg as we are not using the correct settings for sum queue mode.

All settings with baseprocessornumber 0 seems to work fine, but on the second port if we set it correct to not overlapp it doesnt work.

Any suggestions?

Morning all

HyperV host on Win2012 (standard, not R2), guest is the same.

Time was, you could query HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Virtual Machine\Guest\Parameters\PhysicalHostName on a VM to find out the name of the host it was running on, and this is handy for us as we run various scripts to update inventories and such. With a 2012 guest, sometimes that key is no longer populated and for the life of me I can't work out why. The Parameters key is there, but totally empty.

Any thoughts? As you'll know, W2012 has the HyperV integration stuff built in, so it's not like they're out of date or anything. One working and one not-working are both at the same patch levels.

Thanks

Hi All,

I have been trying to enable the Hyper-V role in server 2012R2 standard, but on restarting it fails to install, then recovers back to how it was. I've looked through the logs and found the following.

I have setup a Isolated network with a primary and secondary vlan using Server 2012 R2 hosts.

Everything works ok on the virtual Machines when settings are published.

But after a restart the isolated network doesnt respond, its more or less dead. Even though Everything says  OK.

I have also a normal truncated vlan on Another NIC that works fine all the time.

If I do a shutdown of the virtual machine and then start it, the isolated network works fine.

Tryed the same network on a 2012 Host, and there I can do restarts of virtual Machines without problem.

Any suggestion where to look now? Im suspecting that I get a lock somewhere, maybe on the Vswitch maybe on the physical switch. But cant really find anything.

So my research tells me there likely is not a way to do this, but I think someone must have run into it before or there has been a previous need.

We have recently had two Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard virtual machines created for our use in our data center.  We are using them to run a series of web scanning and monitoring tools.  We want to run these tools within various Windows OS environments with different combinations of browsers/applications/etc, making VMs the obvious way to go (preferably multiple VMs per virtual server).  I don't know much about the virtual data center here, but when I try to enable Hyper-V, the system tells me it is running and cannot run within itself.  Likewise, if I try to install VMWare, it tells me it is not compatible with Hyper-V.

This may be akin to asking for Inception, but is there a way around it?  Does anyone know of a way to run a VM inside a virtual server, or does anyone see an alternate solution?  So far the only one I've come up with is to requisition physical servers, install Windows Server 2012 on each, and then use a single level of either Hyper-V or VMWare to create the virtual machines we need.  

Any information is greatly appreciated.

Hi, I am now to Hyper-V Server Core. Because my network is restricted to one IP address, which is the Hyper-V's host IP, guest VMs need to have "Internal network", sharing the host network.

I need to enable Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) on the Hyper-V's host but the server core does not have any utility for me to set Internet Sharing. Starting "SharedAccess" service has failed also.

Please help!

Hi,

We have a dell server running Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 core edition and we are planning to take backup of VM's to a tape drive (Dell PowerEdge LTO-6 SAS drive). But the core edition is not detecting the tape drive and the drivers.

Can we switch to minimal server interface/Full GUI in Hyper-V server 2012 R2 ?

What is the best one and can we switch back after installing the tap drive drivers ?

Please suggest .

Thanks

Hi All,

can anyone please confirm if pxe boot works with gen 2 vms in hyperv? I have wds installed in standalone mode. When ever I create new gen 2 vm, it takes ip, downloads some file and it says 

Station IP address is x.x.x.x
Server IP address is x.x.x.x
NBP filename is boot\x64\wdsmgfw.efi

Boot Failed. EFI SCSI Device

Boot Failed. EFI Network.

I have tried with and without enabling secure boot option. I have wds(standalone mode), MDT and gen 2 vms. Can anyone please guide me how to make gen 2 vms boot over pxe?

On my desktop with win 8.1 pro i installed win 8.1 pro on hyper v as we are going over this chapter in school. i got it loaded just fine but when i start it up I have no internet on the virtual 8.1 pro OS. My desktop uses a wireless nic and I'm wondering if this is the problem. I was able to get it to work once, but when I shut it down I no longer had an internet connection on the host OS. So i went in and removed the virtual switch and that did it - now i have internet on my desktop but when i turned the virtual machine back on, created the virtual switch again - no internet on virtual machine. I have a feeling I'm configuring something wrong - I will probably find out monday at school but decided to post here because it is bugging me!

Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi All,

I have HP DL380 servers with Broadcom network adapters. I have successfully created the team and selectDynamic as the load balancing mode. This team has selected for the virtual switch. My VMs couldn't communicate to each other. sometimes it communicates with the physical host and sometimes not.

For the troubleshooting purpose i have selected a single adapter as the stand by mode. After that sometimes VM can communicate among each other and sometimes not.

I have found the below article for the same issue.

http://www.aidanfinn.com/?p=16876

i would like to know is there any solution for the issue. Also would like to know is this a bug from Microsoft or the Broadcom?

Long story short, I'm an IT major at college, and this is my first year. We're learning DOS on MSVPC, but since I have 8.1, I have to use hyper-v. I downloaded it, and it installed whilst I was eating dinner. I came back, and it was booted in Hyper-V Server 2012. If I restart or anything, it just brings me back to Server 2012. I tried a system restore, but it says it can't run on my software. There's only so much I can do from the command prompt, as that's all that shows up. If someone could tell me how to revert to my OS, it'd be much appreciated.

windows 8;   Client Hyper-V enabled;   added Hyper-V host (server 2012)

Take a long time to connect to VM.

Another bad symptom: when open HV Manager, local host appears immediately but added previously Host appears after delay.

Didn't see this problem on W7. Firewall is disabled. Have Trend Micro AV installed. But the problem appeared before AV install. And theoretically should be no conflict between Windows Defender and installed AV.

Any idea?

Hi everyone, I'm having a problem that have been driving me crazy for weeks now.

I had 4 servers in Hyperv core 2008R2 connected with a dell equallogic.

I upgraded to 2012r2 hyperv core and I used the Migration tools from Microsoft. I'll name my 4 servers hv01 hv02 hv03 and hv04 for this example. I can have all VM running on my CSV on any of my server, but as soon as I add another host on my cluster, the CSV become Online (no access) and all vm stop within 2 minutes.

So all hosts have full access over the CSV independently, for now this is what I've done / checked :

My hosts are not DC, I can ping all network interfaces, including ISCSI, I configured the MPIO with the help of Dell documentation, The file server feature is installed and my Server and Workstation service is running on all hosts, I allowed all SMB rules inside the firewall, I can access the c$ of all my servers. My servers use broadcom and Intel network card and I already tried to disable all broadcom or all intel to see if the problem was there...

If I run the cluster validation tool for the storage, I only have this error :

Failed to validate Server Message Block (SMB) share access through the IP address of the fault tolerant network driver for failover clustering (NetFT). The connection was attempted with the Cluster Shared Volumes test user account, from node HV01 to the share on node HV02. The network path was not found.

Please I really need some advice here as I'm out of ideas... All the hardware is exactly like it was in 2008R2 and it was working.

Thank you

I am running a home Server with 2012 R2 with the Hyper-V role installed, with about 5 Windows 8.1 VM's.  I'm trying to get RemoteFX working, here's my hardware config:

• E5-4610 Processor (Supports Slat)
• Nvidia GTX 770 (Driver supports WDDM 1.3 with direct X 11)
• Gigabyte GA-X79-UD5 (All bios virtual settings enabled)

When I install the Video card driver (tried different versions using windows 8 and windows 8.1 drivers) initially it shows me the checkbox to "Use this GPU with RemoteFX" However after a reboot it says no supported video cards are available.

Before the reboot after installing the driver when it shows the GPU is capable of remote FX, I am not able to add a RemoteFX 3d adapter to a virtual machine because it is greyed out.

After I reboot, if i uninstall and re-install the driver the GTX 770 is available to use again but I still cannot add the RemoteFX adapter to a virtual machine's hardware.

I have done the following:

1. Verified in DXdiags that the direct X version is 11
2. Verified in DXdiags that the driver model is WDDM 1.3
3. Verified the E5-4610 Proc supports Slat or Extended Page Tables
4. Enabled all the Virtualiztion VT-x settings in the Bios
5. Verified the video card is supported and certified in 2012 R2
6. Verified the Remote Desktop Virtualization Host Agent is started in Services.msc
7. Tried the newest and oldest video drivers for 8.1, and newest for windows 8
8. I am using Generation 1 vm's as i heard Generation 2 is having problems with RemoteFX
9. Tried Generatino 2 VM's, there is no option to add RemoteFX hardware
10. Tried a different GTX 550Ti video card, same issue
11. Performed all Windows updates for server 2012 R2

Please advise on the next steps to be taken to get RemoteFX working, or if any of the hardware I mentioned above does not support RemoteFX in 2012 R2.

Thanks.
