Hyper-V Replica machine status "Modifying - Scheduled"


Hyper-V 2016 VMs stuck 'Creating checkpoint 9%' while starting backups

$

0

We have a two clustered W2016 Hyper-V hosts, every couple of days one of the hosts gets stuck when the backup kicks off. In Hyper-V manager the VMs all say 'Creating checkpoint 9%' It's always the same percentage 9%. You can't cancel the operation and the VMMS service refuses to stop, the only way to get out of the mess is to shutdown the VMs, and hard reset the effected node. The backup works for a few days then it all starts again.

The only events I can see on the effected node is:

Event ID: 19060 source: Hyper-V-VMMS

'VMName' failed to perform the 'Creating Checkpoint' operation. The virtual machine is currently performing the following operation: 'Creating Checkpoint'.

Can anybody help please? Cluster validation is clean. Hosts and guests are patched up.

Hi,

Was wondering if anybody else is having this issue..  I'm on Windows 10 RS5 (1809) and I'm unable to create a new VM and power it up..  It is coming up with the following error:

I came across this issue when trying to get Docker For Windows installed..  So went back to basics and tried to create a basic VM..

I've tried disabling the Hyper-V :

Rebooted and then re-enabling it:

Rebooted, same issue :(

So was wondering if anybody else has had this issue and resolved it?

Thanks

Event ID 158 Disk error on VM's

Disk 2 has the same disk identifiers as one or more disks connected to the system. Go to Microsoft's support website (http://support.microsoft.com) and search for KB2983588 to resolve the issue.

I keep seeing this error in my event logs of the VM's . 

How do i fix this?

I have 2 Hyper-V hosts and they both have MPIO installed. 

Error Access Denied - Opening VHD at \\UNC\PATH\NAME.vhdx and i got error %%2147942432 0x80070020

Error Access Denied - Opening VHD at \\UNC\PATH\NAME.vhdx  and i got error %%2147942432 0x80070020

The scenario:

Win2012R2 Hyper-V Cluster Node-A and Node-B

Win2012R2 Standard FileServer, sharing a bunch of VHD files via \\UNC\PATH\NAME.vhdx

PATH shared folder and Security NTFS permissions allowing Everyone:F, SYSTEM:F, Node-A$:F and Node-B$:F, full control, open permissions at the highest level

I´m connected to TS/RDP to Node-A and if i try to create a new VM it succeeds!

But...

If i´m connected via TS/RDP to Node-A, AND ALSO using the Hyper-V Manager pointed to Node-B

i got the access denied error  0x80070020

Again, i´m conencted  to the TS/RDP Node-A, but the hyper-V manager is pointed to Node-B (Node-B has more resources available)

Why is that?

Maybe a COM problem?

Hyper-V 2019 - Guest VM's shutdown unexpectedly

$
0
0

Hi,

Since upgrading my Hyper-V servers to Windows Server 2019, including KB4471332 from last night, my guest VM's do not power down on restart of the 2019 host.

I can confirm integration components are as up to date as possible, and each guest is configured to shutdown when the host restarts.

Each guest gets the "Why did I shutdown unexpectedly message".

The even viewer yields the following all within 30 seconds of restarting the host:

Shut down physical computer. Stopping/saving all virtual machines...

'ADFS' failed to perform the 'Shutting Down' operation. The virtual machine is currently performing the following operation: 'Shutting Down'. (Virtual machine ID 0CFDF648-EE9D-4141-9EBD-9A6D911C3442)
'ADFS' failed to shut down. (Virtual machine ID 0CFDF648-EE9D-4141-9EBD-9A6D911C3442)

The Update Orchestrator Service service terminated with the following error:
This operation returned because the timeout period expired.

Failed to restore configuration for port 59229EE2-C880-4BF2-9849-89A21EC17772 (Friendly Name: ) on switch 300C0E17-E123-4182-BE62-AAD1860BE841 (Friendly Name: ), status = Object Name not found..

Everything is configured as it was on the 2016 Hyper-V host.

The message ADFS failed to shut down because it is shutting down seems terribly odd to me.  Of course its shutting down, just need the host to wait. (Yes the registry is set to 120 as the default time for the host....)

Fairly simple to recreate....just spin up a 2019 server, install Hyper-V role, throw in a VM and test.

Any help would be appreciated, but my money is on it being another bug.

Hyper-V guest Windows SP Professional SP3 seems to have no internet access

$

In spite of reading many articles and watching dozens of videos, I am still running into a strange phenomenon.

The other day I installed (from my host Windows 10 Pro) all Hyper-V features. After creating a virtual machine, I also installed Windows XP Professional SP3 as the OS for this virtual machine. According to the suggestions found all over the internet:

- I created an external virtual switch, pointing to the very same network adapter that is used by Windows 10 Pro to gain access to the internet. Because I have several adapters in my computer, most of them having the status 'unplugged', I double checked this by enabling/disabling this adapter and had a look at the overall result. So, I am 100% sure the right network adapter is in scope.
As part of the Virtual Switch Properties, the option "Allow management operating system to share this network adapter" is also checked.

- In the settings for the virtual machine (XP), a Legacy Network Adapter was added with a Virtual switch pointing to the same virtual switch as mentioned above.

- In the active network overview of the host machine (Windows 10), a connection of access type "Internet" is visible. The name of the external virtual switch is between the parentheses.

But, when starting the XP virtual machine, there seems to be no access to the internet at all. From an earlier test, I can remember that all of a sudden, after shutting down the virtual machine, 127 Windows XP updates had been processed one by one. Isn't that a bit weird assuming there is no internet access at all? Where are these updates coming from?
I tested the XP internet connection using version 6 of IE. In the XP network connections a single Local Area Connection is visible. In its properties, it can be seen that the IP address will be obtained automatically (is this really the intention?).

So far, I still do not know how to solve this and if it's a Hyper-V issue or something in the XP settings has to be changed (although no video and/or article I read addressed this issue).

Any help is appreciated.

Hyper-V host keep hanging after Patching

Hi, 

I'm having an issue with two of my hyper-v host servers, we do have a weekly Windows patching, both the hyper-vs will hang when booting up after patches are installed. Can I know what could possibly causing it? and what can I do? 

Thank you


Copying files between Hyper-V host/guest issues

$
0
0

I do know there are several ways to copy files between a Hyper-V host and its guest. So far, the most straightforward method to me seemed to be the setup of an internal network combined with the network drive mapping feature of the Windows Explorer.

GOAL: being able to copy files from a Hyper-V guest to host (or the other way round).

SETUP: Windows 10 Pro (host), Hyper-V version 10.x, Windows XP SP3 (guest).

On the host side I added a virtual switch (type: internal) and assigned it a static ip-adres (192.168.1.1, subnet mask 255.255.255.0). In the settings of the Hyper-V guest a legacy network adapter was added referencing the newly added switch on the host side. After starting the Hyper-V guest (XP), the new Local Area Connection was also assigned a static ip-adres (192.168.1.2, subnet mask 255.255.255.0).

In the guest (XP) I tried to map a network folder to the host by using the usual syntax based on both hostname and sharename, resulting in an error message that shows that no such share can be found. On the host side (Windows 10) a share had been added with permissions granted for Everyone. In the host itself, it opens the shared folder when entered in a Windows Explorer as the target.

The weird thing is that from the guest the host can be pinged by using its ip-adres (192.168.1.1). But from the host the guest cannot be pinged (ping 192.168.1.2): a timeout is shown after a few seconds. I do know being able to ping is not always that important, but could this be some kind of a clue?

What did I overlook?

Any help is appreciated.

Nested Virtualization in Hyper-V 2016

So, I'm trying to setup this lab so I can learn Hyper-V 2016. I'm stuck at nested virtualization. 

I think I have a BIG issue because I have an AMD CPU instead of an Intel using VT-x and EPT technology.

Is there a work around to this?

I've tried enabling hyper-v with powershell but I get an error message when I boot the VM up.

I'm tying to avoid buying a whole new system.

Hardware requirements for SQL on Hyper-V 2019

$

Hi,

we need to size/buy the hardware for a Hyper-V Server that fit best for the use with a MSSQL2017/2019 Server. The thing is, we get very different information from our partners about the configuration of the harddiscs. The Server has to use local drives, so we decided to use ssd.

The problem we got stuck on is how to configure them. From the SQL-Servers point of view you would use dedicated RAID-5 for the database-files and dedicated RAID-1 for logfiles and tempdb. But how about the hyper-v point of view ?

Shall we use the dedicated RAID´s and apply them to the SQL-Server as dedicated drives (as physikal or virtual ?), or shall we build a RAID10 and let all the SQL-DB`s and virtual machines run on this one global drive ?

Any suggestions are welcome

Kind regards

Help!!

For the past month I have been trying to fix an issue that I have been having with my Hyper-V role management tools.

When I attempt to open any of my virtual machines under Failover Cluster Management the error message that I am getting is :

“The Hyper-V role management tools are not installed, you can install by opening Server Manager and installing either the Hyper-V role, or expanding the “Remote Server Administration Tools” feature and installing “Hyper-V management tools in failover cluster manager”

Note: The tools and features are already installed as well as the failover clustering and Remote Server Administrator.

Any help would be amazing!! Thank you

Use cmdlet to live migrate VM changing the vNetwork.

$

Good morning.

I have to live migrate VMs from “Hyper-v on Server 2012” to “Hyper-v Server 2012 R2”.
Well, at the same time I have to migrate all the storage (Config, Snapshots, Pagingfiles and VHDs).
Up to here everything is ok. 
At the same time without loose the VMs connectivity I have to change the vNetwork because the vNetworks on the new Hosts are different.

I will use Move-VM powershell cmdlet, example:

Move-VM $VM remoteServer –VirtualMachinePath $Path1 –SnapshotFilePath $Path1 –SmartPagingFilePath $Path1 –IncludeStorage –VHDs @(@{"SourceFilePath" = $OldVHDPath1; "DestinationFilePath" = $NewVHDPath1}, @{"SourceFilePath" = $OldVHDPath2;"DestinationFilePath" = $NewVHDPath2}) 

When I do it manually through the Hyper-v Console, it ask me to change it:


How can I change vSwitch at the same time that I Move the VM using a cmdlet without loosing connection?

Thanks in advance and have a nice week,
Angel Biurrun.

 

Guest fails to start with nested virtualization enabled.

I need to enable nested virtualization on a guest running in Hyper-V so that I can use a VMWare Workstation effectively on the guest.

Server is a Dell PowerEdge R410 with two Intel Xeon E5645 (VT-X with EPT is supported) running Windows Server 2016 Build 14393.  The guest is Windows 10 version 1803, using Hyper-V configuration version 8 generation 2.  

When nested virtualization is enabled with "Set-VMProcessor -VMName Windows10 -ExposeVirtualizationExtensions $true" the guest fails to start.  It gets to "starting 10%" then returns to the off state.  The system event log displays the error "Windows10 has encountered a fatal error and a memory dump has been generated.  The guest operating system reported that it failed with the following error code: 0x1E.  If the problem persists, contact Product Support for the guest operating system.  (Virtual machine ID 228E40F4-227B-44D5-B7D8-49A070BBE734)".
