Hyper-v servers = 2012 R2 (core)

I want to make sure that my VMs are getting the resources it needs. If I want for example, monitor RAM on my VMs, I would setup perfmon inside my VMs to monitor memory usage, correct? If any VM is running low I'll just simply allocate more RAM.

My confusion comes when monitoring CPU. What I've read so far is that I cannot monitor the processor counters inside my VM. I need to monitor from the Hyper-V host itself, correct? If this is the case then I imaging I would use logman, perfmon command line utility or do I use VM Resource Meteering instead?

For now I want to focus on the VMs and not the Hyper-V host. I want to make sure the VMs are getting the resources it needs.

Best regards.

Hi All,

Had some issues with virtual switch, it never worked. Tried to enable/disable hyper-v.

Pretty much does not install anymore. Maybe some of you have an idea.

Here output from CBS.log based on it seems the virtual switch part is failing, but no idea why exactly:

Hello,

I am running a server using Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter. I am using Hyper V to manage 7 virtual machines which were being stored on external storage. Recently a firmware update came through for the storage system and this caused a crash. The data was recovered free of charge by the storage manufacturer and so now I have access to all of the files that made up the virtual machines. I have moved these directly onto a new drive on the server itself. My issue now is that I dont seem to be able to import the machines. Is there any way that I can get these files to work in Hyper V again? I would really appreciate some help.

Ed.

This morning I powered up the Hyper-V Server and found one of the VM's running on it to be  shutdown and not running.

I deleted the previously taken snapshot and the VM started showing the status as 'Merge in progress...' and it's stuck at 6%.

I do not know what to do. I tried restarting the machine and it would not allow me to do so and throws a message tha the merge is in progress.

The current state is:

• The virtual machine is shut down.
• the Hyper-V console says the machine has one snapshot dated dec 2014.

I'm afraid to try anything right now because I don't want to corrupt the files.  Could someone please suggest a fix for this?

I want to power up the server at the earliest since it's a file server and client needs it to be up urgently. The data size is about 552 GB in size.

Is there a way to check the status other than the progress in the hyper-v console?

The other VM has no issues and is running fine.

It looks like there is a problem with the KB2920189 update.

When trying to install it via Windows Update on some servers, they all fails the installation of this update - they are all running 2012 R2 inside generation 2 Hyper-V machines.

Has this update been tested with the UEFI implementation inside Hyper-V?

Good evening,

I am hoping someone will be able to assist me with a couple of issues I've come across with moving a physical server to a hyper-v guest on a 2012 R2 host. I'm running into two different issues that have seem to make it impossible to work with the guest. Here is the background:

Had a 2008 R2 server that I used P2V to create a VHDX. Reformatted the server with 2012 R2 and installed the Hyper-V role. From there I created a new Hyper-v and used the VHDX I had created earlier. I created a NIC team with 2 NICS and have a 3rd one sitting by itself. When I created the Virtual switch I created an external network connected to the single NIC (here I am just duplicating settings for other servers that had the same role) and then configure the guest machine to connect to that external network.

Booted up the virtual machine and was able to login. Attempted to install integration services and reboot but kept getting BSOD and it just kept rebooting. Shutdown the VM and deleted it. Went back to my copy of the VHDX and recreated it with the thought that I would just RDP into it to finish the setup. However, when the server gets into windows, there is no network connection. Previously, this had the same NIC teaming configuration but the only NIC I see is the Virtual adapter, no "physical" nics appear in networking.

So, right now I have a VM with no network connection and I can't use the mouse to troubleshoot anything within the OS. Anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this problem?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

I can no longer view my VM on all my monitors by using VMConnect Enhanced Session mode.

I select "Use all my monitors" when connecting with VMConnect to my VM but the session  is only shows on one monitor.

If I use MSTSC to connect to my VM and select "Use all my monitors" it works, but since I'm not connecting with VMConnect I don't have console options such as shutdown from inside the VM etc.

Regards,

Robin

Created a VM with OS but need to add a virtual HD over 2 TB.

Also and wondering how to change the name of folder if I accidently misnamed the VM.

(I have changed the VM name but the folders for the VDH are named differently.)

I have several virtual (hyper-v) Windows 2012 R2 servers that crashes at the same time at night with the same error.

Bagcheck code is 0x00000019 (0x0000000000000020, 0xffffe0001bf77000, 0xffffe0001bf772c0, 0x000000000c2c0000)

At this time Sophos AV begins scheduled scan job. Analysis of dump file shows that 

Probably caused by : spaceport.sys ( spaceport!SpSpaceDeviceControl+193 )

Excluding spaceport.sys file from scan does not resolve issue.

Here are MEMORY.DMP AND minidump files code:

I also noticed that BSOD appears when Sophos AV tries to scan MBR.

We use Sophos AV inside the VMs.We have 4 of 9 problem systems that were deployed form one template.

When I disable MBR scan in AV - scan completes successfully. But I think that it's not a secure way to resolve the issue.

Could anyone help me to resolve this issue?

At this point, we are building another hyper-v host server in our environment.. we have about 35 virtual machines spread over 3 hyper-v hosts at this point.. most of these servers are 5+ years old and only 8 core machines with sata enterprise drives. In the past i've created raid6 arrays that hold all the servers on one box plus maybe another raid6 array for a passthrough disk to a virtual box as well.

On one of the older boxes we run a virtual 16GB instance of sql server 2008, as well as application tiers for TFS, Sharepoint 2013 etc.. we also have two Exchange 2010 VM's.. one of which is 300+GB..  these types of applications spread over 3 hosts..

These days these old boxes are seemingly dragging.. too many vms on one box for sure.. way beyond the old one box per core rule... as many as 14 on one box alone (8 cores)..

Now we come to today.. this is what i've been spec'ing for a new build:

CPU:   E5-2650 v3 2.3 ghz x 2   (10 cores, 20 threads on each cpu)

Motherboard: X10DAI-B 

Chasis:  SupermicroSC846BE1C-R1K28B 4U, sas3/sata single expander

Supermicro was suggesting going with one of these 3 supermicro cards.. saying that they cant guarantee other brands will work such as Areca (unless its the lsi-avago chipset).. anyone have experience with supermicro?

Card 1

Card2

Card3

The debate is on this new box.. going with raid6 vs raid10.. also if sas3 is overkill on either of these, or maybe just for raid6, and the option of going with an enterprise sata drive array should be considered?

Raid10, seems like a big suck of drive slots.. though maybe I dont need to have more than 3 drives in a stripe x 2 for this, to beat out say the performance of Raid6.. which normally i always use at least 4-5 drives for Raid6.. perhaps there is a calculator to compare RAID10 with less in the stripe vs Raid6 with more.

Any thoughts on the best route to take here?

This will all go on Hyper-V under Windows Server 2012 R2 x64.. Ill also have a second dual port nic card, so that each VM has an option of VirtualNetwork #1 or #2 as i've done in the past with the other hosts.

And with the new CPU, does the old one VM per physical core still apply.. or is it one per thread since this new CPU is hyper threaded?

I'm considering doing VM replication down the road as well.. to help for situations where one host goes down..

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 server running in HyperV.  After a reboot, it will not boot all the way up to the login screen.  It gets stuck on "Please wait for the local session manager" and never gets any further.  The server has very little configuration, it only has one application installed on it. I really do not want to have to rebuild this server.   

Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?

Hello, I just upgraded my machine to Windows 10 and now my Hyper-V Manager cannot connect to and manage our Server 2012R2 Hyper-V Hosts. I get the following error.

"An error occurred while attempting to connect to server xxxxx. Check that the Virtual Machine Management service is running and that you are authorized to connect to the server."

I've read in multiple places that Hyper-V Manager in Windows 10 and Server 10 will support managing Server 2012 and 2012R2 hosts. I'm not sure why it's not working though.

Any help would be appreciated.

Up front I state I am not a Linux person. My last experience with *nix was back in the DEC days when they came out with Ultrix (I know, that's really dating me).

How does VMQ capabilities transfer through to a Linux VM?  Assume the host has at least two VMQ capable  1G NICs.  These are presented on virtual switches to a Linux installation that has Microsoft integration services installed, so it is using the network adapter and not the legacy network adapter.  With a single CPU assigned to the VM, assume the system is getting 1G throughput.  What should the expectation be when a second CPU is added to the VM?  I'm not necessarily expecting twice the throughput, but should I see a significant improvement?  Does the Linux VM have to support VMQ in order to see the benefits of VMQ with multiple NICs or is the benefit provided by the host which does support VMQ?

Win 8.1 Pro, Hyper-V v6.3.9600.16384

I have set a VM for "Always start this virtual machine automatically".  But when Windows and Hyper-V start up, this machine is not starting.  I have alternately tried going back to a different setting for startup and coming back to auto start thinking it might reset some internal 'switch', and I have tried 0 and 30 sec delays wondering if there are delayed services, but I don't know what those might be.  But I would think when Hyper-V starts, it should be fully ready to go.

I have Hyper-V also running on another machine (Server 2012 R2) and it behaves properly.  Of course the only time I shut down the server is for software updates as required, but when I do that, Hyper-V automatically starts all its VMs per the settings.

What things can I look at to determine why Hyper-V is not starting the VM automatically on this Win 8.1 machine, and what might I do to fix this problem?

Thanks.

I just had this nasty experience after applying some updates. The culprit is most likely "Intel - Other hardware - Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility Device Driver".

I have a VM that uses 4 directly attached Physical Hard Disks. For a VM to use these they need to be offline.

This is what happened. The update required a restart. A restart saves the state of a VM before the restart and then resumes it afterwards. The problem was that after this update the drives came up online. The VM failed to resume because it had lost the entries for these disks in settings. Even though I could of course take the disks offline again, I could not add them back to the settings without first deleting the saved state. I did this but was only able to successfully start the VM after another system restart.

So my advice before applying this update.

Shutdown any VMs that use Physical Hard Disks.

Make a note of the entries in Settings for any Physical Hard Disks.

Apply the update, this will cause a system Restart.

After the system has restarted, check the state of the disks and if necessary put the disks offline again.

Check the Settings for your VMs and if necessary add the entries for Physical Hard Disk back.

Do another restart.

Bring up your VMs which should be OK.

Hope that helps someone.

(Note to Microsoft - this situation should not arise and needs a design improvement. The entries in Settings should not be lost just because any offline disks come online after a restart)

Hello,

I'm using Hyper-V 2012 R2 server.

I would like to provide a user (non administrator) the possibility to manage a pack of VMs only.

So let say we have 25 VMs, I need to give him a way see and manage only part of them via Hyper-V Manager.

I saw an old article describing how to do that, but it's outdated, using Authorization Manger, which is not present anymore.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Best,

Simeon

I have a virtual file server that will not replicate due to the storage VHDX that is installed under the SCSI Controller as a virtual hard drive.  The drive contains all the file shares for the file server.  The VHDX was initially created on different VM which was the DC.  If i remove the VHDX the file server will replicate fine but not with the SCSI VHDX installed.   I have tried to put the SID of the VM all permissions seems fine the SID of the current host VM is listed under permissions.  I even created a new VHDX under Hyper-V manager and copied the contents under the Hyper-V manager but I still get the same General access denied error (0x80070005). Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Here are the Exact errors that I receive from the replication health maybe this may shed some light.

I just started getting this error and don't what it means:

Event ID: 58

Also getting this error after the above error:

The Hyper-V is been running for 5 months then this error starts.

Please assist
