Hyper-V manager from Windows 10 to Hyper-V Server 2016

$

Greetings,

I've installed the free Hyper-V Server 2016 (seems to be a core server). I'm not using a domain, just a workgroup.

When I try to remotely manage with Hyper-V manager on a Windows 10 box, I get "An error occurred while attempting to connect to server "IP." Check that the Virtual Machine Management service is running and that you are authorized to connect to the server.

I can remotely manage the server -- confirmed using "Computer Management" MMC to remotely access and manage some components of the server.

Using this page (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyperv_on_windows/user_guide/remote_host_management) and others as a guide, these are things I have done:

"Enable psremoting" on both client and server. "enable-wsmancredssp -role server" on the server. "enable-wsmancredssp -role client -delegatecomputer fqdn-of-server" on the client, except instead of fqdn I used IP address. What fqdn would I use in a workgroup?

I've also added the server as a trusted host to the client, via "Set-Item wsman:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts SERVERNAME/IP -Concatenate -Force" except again I used IP address instead of server name.

I've also tried enabling the local administrator account on the client and giving it the same password as the administrator account on the server. I've also tried the "connect as another user" feature of the Hyper-V manager, via localhost\administrator or just administrator.

Finally, the very last step of the link I provided is to make a group policy change on the client in the System\Credentials Delegation\ area. I enabled "Allow delegating fresh credentials with NTLM-only server authentication" and added wsman/IP_address.

Any thoughts?

I am completely lost on setting up networking. I have so many questions.

Hello,

I'll try to make this brief but I have a feeling it's going to be long. My backstory is that I manage a 2-node vSphere cluster that I'm working on migrating to Hyper-V. Networking in that world makes sense (I'm not using distributed vSwitches). It is less complicated somehow.

I have two old hosts that I can play with. I'm currently only working with one of those two hosts because I haven't gotten as far as being able to create a cluster yet.

I'm starting with Hyper-V Server 2016. I thought that wouldn't be a terrible place to start (but I'm starting to wonder...). And I don't want to start with the GUI because I'm trying to force myself to use PowerShell more.

I bought "Microsoft Hyper-V Cluster Design" by Eric Siron so much of my information comes from there. But I also have had guidance from reddit and various blog posts. However, at this point it's all jumbled in my memory and many aspects of the network design are not jibing in my mind nor are they playing out as expected when I follow the scripts.

I'm trying to setup a converged fabric. I have eight pNICs in each host with two dedicated to iSCSI. As I understand it, I should be able to team ALL SIX remaining pNICs and then create one virtual switch that all network roles run on top of.

Here are my issues.

  1. It's not clear to me which network roles should actually have management traffic on them and how to enable this. The book, and several guides I've run across, turn off management when creating the vmswitch. Well, if you consume all your pNICs in a single team and then create the vmswitch from that you get locked out if you're managing remotely. This is how we're supposed to be doing things these days, right? We're not supposed to sit at the console at the machine and type things in.
  2. When I "Add-VMNetworkAdapter" I cannot "Get-VMNetworkAdapter" because the VMNetworkAdapter I just added is not assigned to a VM. So how do I get that thing back? How do I see it's configuration? It seems to be lost.
  3. After running "Add-VMNetworkAdapter" I cannot use "Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan" against the new adapter because of an error. (This could be a consequence of starting with Hyper-V 2016 but I haven't gone so far as to start over completely with 2012 R2.) The error is "Cannot bind parameter 'VMNetworkAdapter'. Cannot convert the '<name>' value of type 'System.String' to type 'Microsoft.HyperV.PowerShell.VMNetowrkAdapterBase". This error returns no results in Google.
  4. What does the parameter "ManagementOS" on "Add-VMNetworkAdapter"? It doesn't seem to mean the same thing as "AllowManagementOS" with "Add-VMSwitch". If itdid mean the same thing, why don't I get an IP address for that new adapter? That's the behavior I'm expecting. I expect that if management is enabled on an adapter that adapter can talk to my network and reach my DHCP server to get an IP address. But this doesn't happen.
  5. The example of setting up converged fabric in the book (and several guides that seem to copy it) all use "ManagementOS" when adding VMNetworkAdapters. Throwing back to question #1, why would I be allowing management traffic on ALL those network roles? Even on iSCSI? That doesn't make sense to me.
  6. When does "Add-NetLbfoTeamNic" come into play if at all? That command is not anywhere in the book but according to TechNet it's been available since 2012. This command is one I had thrown at me on another forum. 

I'm pretty much at a standstill now. I can't move forward until I get these things figured out. They're blocking me mentally.

Thanks!

Chris.

get-vm shows integration services version as 0.0

We're running Hyper-V 2016, and have upgraded the VM version of most machines to 8.0, but still have some at 5.0.  There's a mix of generation 1 & generation 2 VMs.

Now, when we run:

get-vm | ft Name, IntegrationServicesVersion

it returns the Integration Services Version as 0.0 for ALL VMs, including the Linux VMs.

In Failover Cluster manager, the Integration Services versions are correct.

A search only returns a single other incident like this, and the fix then was to apply a hotfix that has since been expired/removed.

Windows 2012r2 Hyper-V Gen 2 boot options missing

Ok, I've wasted an entire day searching for an answer for this.  I found a few people with the same issue but no answers.

I built a Win10 1607 Gen2 VM.  I mounted an ISO to capture windows for SCCM.   I cant change my boot settings in Firmware because they are missing.

I went to the CLI in PS and tried Set-VMFirmware -VMName 1607 -BootOrder "DVDDrive","HardDiskDrive"

Set-VMFirmware : Cannot bind parameter 'BootOrder'. Cannot convert the "DVDDrive" value of type "System.String" to
type "Microsoft.HyperV.PowerShell.VMComponentObject".
At line:1 char:40

    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidArgument: (:) [Set-VMFirmware], ParameterBindingException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CannotConvertArgumentNoMessage,Microsoft.HyperV.PowerShell.Commands.SetVMFirmwareCommand

Using 

Hyper-V Manager
Microsoft Corporation
Version: 6.3.9600.16384

Has something change in the was this is done?   I have 5 Hypervisors all running the same build and none of the gen 2 machines have this option.  The Gen1 VM's are fine.

Questions about running several Windows 7 Pro guest VMs on Windows Server 2012 R2 / UPS Worldship

$
0

We have a need to have 4 laptops connect to remote sessions on our Windows 2012 R2 server.  This is due to the software that they need to run being database-driven, and very susceptible to wireless connectivity issues.  At first, we went the Remote Desktop Services route, but found that one solution (UPS Worldship) does not like to be run on one system under multiple sessions.  So we're thinking of maybe instead running four guest VMs instead, all with Windows 7 Pro SP1.  Each laptop would connect remotely to its own assigned VM.  Some concerns I have with this:

1. Would regular Windows 7 Pro licenses (not OEM) work to activate each Windows 7 instance under this scenario?  Or are there licensing issues?

2. Any issue with Integration Services?  I'd like to be able to connect to each VM from the console without RDP.

3. Any other issues with this idea that I am not forseeing?  Our R2 server has 128GB RAM and 32 logical processors, so parceling out resources should not be an issue.

If anyone else has dealt with running UPS Worldship under these circumstances, any advice would be appreciated.  UPS says that they can't do Remote Desktop Services, but I'm wondering if anyone has found otherwise.

Thanks!

Windows 2012 R2 Cluster Fails

$

Hi All,

I've been running Hyper-v failover cluster with two-node, and kept having fail-over issues. When I investigated I found that both nodes were almost simultaneously logging this "informational" message:

Log Name: System

Event ID: 4201

Description: Isatap interface isatap.{0641D3E0-A625-4A6C-8978-00EDB13F5376} is no longer active.

Immediately after this message the cluster would fail, causing the databases to failover. About 5 seconds after that this message would get logged:

Log Name: System

Event ID: 4200

Description: Isatap interface isatap.{B1103C13-7B25-43C6-BD5A-BFBD28C90B3F} with address fe80::5efe:169.254.1.230 has been brought up.

Poked around for a bit but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I couldn't tell what was triggering the failure, or why this could be occurring…and what the hell is this adapter that keeps flapping and then coming back up.

Please suggest..

Host machine loses internet connection with external switch created

$

Hello,

I'm running Windows 10 Pro and I have a really weird problem with Hyper-V and external switch created for WiFi adapter. Just after creating it works fine. However, after a couple of days I'm unable to access internet on host/virtual machines via external switch. If I delete bridge directly in Control Panel/Network Connections or delete switch via Hyper-V manager - internet works OK on host machine (and obviously doesn't work on VMs). Sometimes just disabling/enabling bridge in Network Connections does the trick but most of the time I have to recreate Virtual Switch.

In Hyper-V -> Virtual Switch manager I have two other connections - one internal (Windows Phone Emulator Internal Switch for Windows Mobile Emulator) and one more external for Ethernet adapter. Both WiFi and Ethernet external switches have checkbox "Allow management operating system to share this network adapter" checked.

Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong?

Error: Component reports path on volume which has been excluded + Error Code: 0x8100010F and 0x80780049.

then i decided to upgrade integration services on Exchange VM (Win Server 2012 + Exchange Server 2013 CU14 + Latest Updates Installed+ Integration Services 6.3.9600.18080). to do so i did "Action > Insert Integration Services Setup Disk" and installed Integration services.

now! Exchange VM Stuck in boot saying "Please Wait" for a long time, any idea how fix this?

Dynamic disk not showing full size- only pre-expansion size

hi all. 

I have a dynamic VHDX on a 2012 R2 server. this drive was originally 200GB maximum size, however I increased this to 250GB.

now, in the virtual machine, disk management/ diskpart still only shows the full size of the disk as 200GB. inspecting the VHDX file shows max size as 250 GB, but nothing in the VM is showing the correct size. I have no option to extend the logical partition. it's like the VHDX hasn't extended properly/ is corrupt?

Hopefully someone else has had this issue. please help! :)

Hi all,

I need to convert a server 2003 VM from VMDK to VHD, I am currently using StarWind v2v, the conversation goes fine, when I setup the new VM up in hyper-v I get error loading operating system.

1. The VM is set up as a generation 1 VM with IDE no networking,

2. The 2003 os is 32bit SP2 which I found is the minimum for support in hyper-v

3. The host is running 1607 W10, the conversation took place of a different system running 1607 as well.

I have tried

following the below link, which only left me with a raw disk.

Internet connection lost on Hyper-V Virtual Machine after connecting to VPN

$

Sorry, I am entering the lion's den here and I apologise for my lack of knowledge here.

I am new to a job, and we use HyperV to connect to various customers using different VMs.

For one of our customers, I can go into the VM and from there access external internet sites such as Google, Bing etc.

The connection on the VM appears to use a Local Area Connection to access the internet.

When I'm on the VM, in order to access the customer's corporate system, I have to connect to a VPN, set up in a Cisco VPN application.

The problem I have is that while I can connect to the corporate application, I lose the ability to connect to external URLs.

For one of the problems I'm investigating, I need to be able to access an external URL, and not being able to do so means I have to keep bothering the customer, instead of being able to do the full end-to-end test myself.

It might be that connecting to the VPN loses the internet connection, but I do recall that when in my old job, I could work from home, and connect to work via a VPN using a Cisco VPN client, and access corporate applications, and external URLs at the same time.

However, I don't know enough about VPNs to know if that difference is just down to the way the VPN has been configured by the customer (e.g. disable internet connection).

So I thought I'd ask here for advice.

Any help much appreciated.

how to let hyperV machines see each other through internal IP ?

$
0

hi guys, I have about 4 hyperV machines

Host OS - internal nic 10.0.0.1 and one external nic to internet. NAT is configured (automatically using the RRAS setup wizard)

VM Ips : 10.0.0.11, 10.0.0.12, etc...

VM gateway set to 10.0.0.1

the VMs can access internet. the host OS can ping the VM IPs

but VM1, can't ping/telnet VM2, and VM3 and VM4 and vice versa (via computer name or the internal IPs)

. If I remove RRAS from the host OS, the VMs can see each other. but with RRAS (NAT) setup, they can't. is there another setting I have to do in RRAS or HyperV ?

any help is greatly appreciated

I have recently installed a new Hyper-V server into the 2008 R2 cluster.

The host can Connect to all of the other servers on the other nodes in the cluster. But it cannot connect to its own VMs, nor can any of the other nodes connect to any of the VMs on that new server either.

When attempting to connect (VMConnect.exe) the following error appears - "An authentication error occurred (Code: 0x607)". Screenshot below - 

Does anybody have any clue as to whats going wrong here?

I have multiple VM's replicating to an off-site server.  I had to revert one back to a snap shot.  The status is now showing needs to be re-synchronized.  I have tried resume replication and tried manual re-synchronization.  Neither of these work.  Can anyone suggest how to restore the replication?

Thanks.
