VM (Server 2012 R2) will not start after running updates overnight

0
0

I have created a new VM (Server 2012 R2) and just got everything up and running to the point I could install windows updates.  Everything was going great yesterday and I started installing the 200 or so updates that needed to be installed.  After they installed the server needed to reboot so I let it.  I then called it a night and left it to reboot and walked away.

Today, I came back to a VM that was stuck at the Windows loading screen (little blue windows logo centered on black).  No matter what I try, I can not get this VM to start up now!  When trying to start up it gets hung at Starting (10%) for a short while then finally comes online only to get stuck yet again at the startup screen (previously explained).

I have check my logs and the only thing I can see is an error message deemed "not a big deal" by Microsoft.

Applications and Service Logs->Microsoft->Windows->Hyper-V-Integration->Admin
'SERVERNAME': The Data Exchange integration service is either not enabled, not running or not initialized. (Virtual machine ID 2C43A8A5-B968-4F0E-8429-76A108ECFDC0)

I can't see any other errors.  Any idea how I can get this VM to boot back up?

Powershell script for joining Hyper-V VM to a domain?

0
0
I'm trying to build a script where i could simply import desired number of virtual machines into my hyper-v environment and join them to a domain without the need of doing it manually. I got virtual machine import correctly already, however I am struggling to find a way to join imported virtual machines to a domain. All virtual machines and hosts are on the same LAN network, so they do have network connection. It seems my problem here is identifying those Virtual machines simple through their hostname, perhaps I should be doing that in a different manner?

Hyper-V and ECC memory on Skylake chipset

Hello

I have skylake c236 motherboard + xeon processor + ECC UDIMM memory

 

I run "best practices analyzer" scan on hyper-v role on windows server 2012r2

And got error

 

Title:Use RAM that provides error correction
Severity Error
Problem: The RAM in use on this computer is not error-correcting (ECC) RAM.
Impact:Microsoft does not support  on computers without error-correcting RAM.

 

Then I tryed AIDA64 latest beta (from this topic https://forums.aida6...d-skylake-imc/)

Hi,

Our switch has been restarted yesterday due to over heat. After this incident our Hyper-V 2012 R2 host has been restarted automatically with minidunb error. we analyzed the BSOD error using WinDbg, kindly find the details below.

We have configured  NIC teaming with 2 physical 10G port, is the server restart with BSOD because of this, if yes, kindly let me know why its happened and how to prevent the same in future.

Hyper-V 2012R2 and VM: Windows10 - The protocol version of the component installed in the virtual machine does not match the version expected by the hosting system

0
0

Hi

On my Hyper-V 2012R2 (all updates installed) I have Windows 10 VM.

There is a problem with VSS Integration Services.

Non-Recoverable Error

The protocol version of the component installed in the virtual machine does not match the version expected by the hosting system

I try to update Integration Services on this Windows 10 but system returned Information that "The computer is already the current version of integration services (10.0.10586.0)."

Due to this  I cannot make VM backup of thise machine using Veeam application. Backup job faild and in Hyper-V Integration log I get:

Hyper-V Volume Shadow Copy Requestor failed to connect to virtual machine 'W10-plwropc304' because the version does not match the version expected by Hyper-V (Virtual machine ID 68D49A55-89BE-403F-8CA7-89ABA1225FCE). Framework version: Negotiated (0.0) - Expected (3.0); Message version: Negotiated (0.0) - Expected (5.0). To fix this problem, you must upgrade the integration services. To upgrade, connect to the virtual machine and select Insert Integration Services Setup Disk from the Action menu.

How to solve this problem?

Enable replication failed - Hyper-V is not in a state to accept replication on the Replica server for virtual machine 'Servername'

0

Hello,

I have two Windows 2012 Servers with Hyper-V installed. I have previously used replication for one of the virtual machines but had to turn it off momentarily for making some disk adjustments. Now I am trying to enable replication again, but is met with the error:

Enabling replcation failed

Hyper-V failed to enable replication.

Hyper-V is not in a state to accept replication on the replica server for virtual machine 'Servername'

Under the details an Virtual machine ID is listed, and using this ID I can find the replication files from the previous replication (under \Virtual Hard Disks\Hyper-V Replica\Virtual hard disks\<ID>\ and under \Virtual Hard Disks\Hyper-V Replica\Virtual Machines\<ID>. 

Has anyone run into this before?
Maybe I should get rid of the old replica files and try to replicate anew?
Or perhaps an good old reboot might do the trick :P

Thankful for any insight.

Hyper-V 2016 Technical Preview 5 only taking Full Checkpoints

I'm using Hyper-V on Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 5. I started up a fresh Ubuntu VM, wrote some random files, and started taking checkpoints and exporting them. However, I'm seeing that all the exported files are full disks - they're .vhdk files that are around 10 GB, even if I just write a few characters into a text file (or do nothing at all) and take another checkpoint.

I get the same results if I use the PowerShell Hyper-V cmdlets (that is, Checkpoint-VM, Export-VMSnapshot, etc.). I thought that maybe I would need to specify a parent checkpoint in order to get a differential checkpoint from it, but I don't see any options along those lines in those cmdlets.

I watched a Microsoft talk describing the checkpoint process and clearly showing what appeared to be delta checkpoints, and the speaker even provided the scripts that they used (https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/taylorb/2014/10/26/teched-europe-windows-vnext-hyper-v-backup-and-restore-powershell-scripts/), but the talk was two years ago, and the scripts don't seem to work for me.

Am I doing something wrong? All of my searching seems to suggest that successive checkpoints should generate only differential disks and not full disks.

Microsoft Virtual Machine Bus Network Adapter

Okay where to start; I am trying to button up a restore of an Exchange Backup before I take production down and I am running into issue after issue with a migration project that is taking the better part of almost a month now.

Going from 2003SBS to 2008R2, With 03SBS holding AD and 2008 holding exchange and the store catalog.

So I have it almost done except for hopefully this last road block that I have searched high and low on these white-pages for some kind of answer, feeling like I have quite literally tried everything I am resolved to post and try my luck.

Pulled exhange.vhd (backup) to new server, Installed 2008R2 with new license, installed Hyper-V with 2008R2 on it and everything is fine, works perfectly!

I imported Exhange.VHD and mounted to the new Hyper-V install and I get No Network Adapter now!? "Microsoft Virtual Machine Bus Network Adapter" ... could they name it anything longer?

Integrated Services installed and does nothing to fix it.
Uninstalling the device/driver in Device Manager just loads the same janky driver thats already failing.
There is no option to install the factory driver that will work, I have tried to install the base driver for the NIC "Broadcom BCM5716C NetXtremeII GigE (still didnt do anything)
My last thought was to physically drag over the .dll's from C:\windows\system32 and C:\windows\system32\Drivers\  from the Host as there is no .inf file that I can find in my searching and of course after getting around trying to mount a simple USB drive to a VM didnt F****ing work I ended up burning a dvd for 5Mbs worth of two files. 

Again nothing seems to work.

Can Someone Please help me out there?


HYPER-V Cluster W2012R2 Can't delete VHDX on CSV

0
0

'm working on a Windows 2012 R2 Hyper-v. I've just done an EXPORT of a Virtual Machine to a CSV Volume to import later.

But I hanve't performed the import, and when I went to delete the exported folder I've got an access denied error of the VHDX file.

How can I identify which is the process that locks this file and delete it? There no is any Virtual Machine with this file attached on it.

I've restarted the "Hyper-V Virtual management server" service without success.

This is not a permission problem because I've also tried to take ownership to reset permissions, but I'm also getting an 'access denied error'. Also with CACLS command.

Is there an audit tool for all configured VM's

This would report each VM's settings, running state, bonus points for the IP configuration of each VM.

I figured just a notepad document would be enough but even though there are not that many settings it does become burdensome keeping the list current.

 

 

Can't Install Windows 10 1607 virtual machine Guest on Server 2008 R2 Host

0

Trying to install the new Windows 10 1607 Enterprise OS as a virtual Machine using Hyper V on a Server 2008 R2 Host.

When I start the installer I get the Windows logo for 5 seconds.

Then the screen goes blank / black.

I would usually expect to see the Windows Installer options to select the Installation Language, Region and Keyboard settings. But I just see a black screen.

I get the following errors in the event viewer. Application and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> Hyper-V-Worker -> Admin

Event ID: 23014

Device 'Microsoft Synthetic Display Controller' in 'TESTWINDOWS10' is loaded but has a different version from the server. Server version 3.0 Client version 3.5 (Virtual machine ID 6C2F809F-69A0-4FED-A099-B1F64C57AD79). The device will work, but this is an unsupported configuration. This means that technical support will not be provided until this problem is resolved. To fix this problem, upgrade the integration services. To upgrade, connect to the virtual machine and select Insert Integration Services Setup Disk from the Action menu.

Is it possible to automate DNS record update upon a failover to a replica VM?

0
0

We have two Hyper-V VMs, both running Windows Server 2012 R2. One is a replica of the other, replicated over server farms using Hyper-V Replica. They share the same hostname, but have different statically assigned IP addresses, network ID and host ID both distinct. Let us call these IPs ip1 and ip2.

Upon an unplanned failover to the replica VM, is there any way to automatically update the DNS record 'myserver -> ip1' to 'myserver -> ip2', without any manual operation. We did a little testing in our yard, and had to manually update the record,
so we have been wondering if this is due to our faulty configuration or by design.

We are on a closed network (i.e. no Internet connection), and everything, all the client PCs and server farms, is in a single domain.

Cannot Extend VM Partition After Converting (Very Urgent)

0
0

Hi!

I converted a vhd to vhdx and extended the size of vhdx but when I am trying to extend the size of the partition under Virtual Machines Diskmgmt, the extend volume option is grayed out but the unallocated space is there and when I right click on the unallocated space, all the options are grayed out.

Any Suggestions.

Both Hyper-v and Virtual Server are Windows 2012 R2 Data Center.

Thanks.

I noticed that the partition I need to extend is MBR. How can I convert it to GPT as the option to convert to GPT is also grayed out.


Get-WmiObject access denied on VM?

0
0

I have been trying to use a simple command to join Hyper-V virtual machine to a domain by running a script from the host. The virtual machine is on the same LAN and can access the host trying to issue this command:

Add-Computer -ComputerName "windows7" -LocalCredential "administrator" -DomainName "mydomain.local" -Credential mydomain\administrator -Restart -Force

I get a WMI error:

Add-Computer : Cannot establish the WMI connection to the computer 'windows7' with the following error message: The RPC server is 
unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA).

Tried disabling firewall on both the host server and virtual machine. I checked RPC services on both computers and it seems like everything is running.

Tried using a simple WMI command on another physical server:

Get-WmiObject Win32_ComputerSystem –ComputerName node2

Node2 being another physical server (it is however on the same domain and windows7 machine is not). I get a normal answer and everything works fine, but when I try the same with windows 7 Virtual machine (which is on the same LAN and is pingable), I get an error.

Get-WmiObject Win32_ComputerSystem -Credential windows7\administrator –ComputerName windows7

Error:

Get-WmiObject : The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA)

Is there a way I could debug this issue?



Create a new virtual machine failed with "could not initialize" in Hyper-V

I've installed Windows Server 2008 R2 and enabled the Hyper-V role, on a computer with a single 80G hard disk(1 partition) and 4GB of physical RAM.

I've enabled NX/DEP and VT (virtualization assist) in BIOS.

I create a virtual machine with the below configuration.
Name: qqq
Memory: 512 MB
Network: Not Connected
Hard Disk: C:\vm\qqq.vhd
Operating System: Will be installed at a later time

Start the virtual machine. It failed with "'qqq' could not initialize". Below is the related event logs. Anyone can give me some advice.

HV LM among HV Cluster nodes - Authetication Protocol

0
0

Hi

We setup HV (Win 2012 R2 DataCenter) cluster, but not sure about the authetication protocol to be enabled on all hosts. By default it's CredSSP and we plan to change that to more secured Kerberos, if we do so does it require any changes with HV host servers in AD (with Delegation)?

Regards

 

No full screen in Windows XP console running as Hyper-V guest OS.

0
0

I have an old DOS program that runs fine in a console window under native Windows XP. I've setup a shortcut on the XP machines and selected full screen. When the application runs it opens full screen.

Edit: "I have the XP instance in the HYPER-V in fullscreen mode already. That Windows XP desktop fills the entire monitor. However, when I open a console window I can not get that window to use the whole screen like it does on the stand alone XP boxes."

On a Windows 10 box with a Hyper-V instance of Windows XP the application is working just fine however no matter what I've tried it runs in a too-small box. The settings on the shortcut are the same as the ones on the native XP boxes that work.

Any Ideas?

I/O Errors After Resuming VM (Running on External USB Drive) After Host Laptop Resuming from Sleep

0
0

I looked through the forums but didn't see much on this. I did see a few people saying sleep isn't supported. With that said, I'm running Windows 10 with Hyper-V.  My Laptop has a 128GB SSD so I run all my VMs off an external USB 3.0 drive.  Since I'm not running a prod environment on my home laptop, I'd still like to be able to put my computer to sleep during the night if I want to put a project on hold without shutting down my guest VM(s). Last night, I paused my VM and put my host to sleep. This morning, I woke my laptop, resumed the VM and it appeared to work at first (running off what was left in memory) but then I realized it didn't seem connected to disk.  I was unable to open any files, programs were terminating, and finally, when attempting to shutdown the OS (Linux), I got I/O errors.

Anyone have thoughts?  Is this expected behavior since sleep isn't "supported?"  Or, maybe this has something to do with me running my VMs on an external USB drive?  IIRC, I think I've run VirtualBox VMs from my external drive while suspending and sleeping without problems.
