Lost connection to Domain (Active Directory & Internet)

Hello, I'm new here. Do correct me if I mess up. 

There were 2 VMs in the Hyper-V on Server 2012. It was all good till I added one more VM from a virtual hard disk. When I turned the VM, I lost connectivity to the Sever machine (I was using RDP). I logged in to the machine physically and saw that the connection was broken. There's no hardware issues that I can think of. LAN cable is good and strong. 

Physical NIC shows "Network cable unplugged" and virtual nic shows "Unidentified network". I used the External switch in Hyper V. 

Also, I need the AD in the VMs to access network paths.

It would be a LOT of help if you could give me a hand here.

Hello,

I was wondering if this has been fix and how to do it?

PS C:\windows\system32> powercfg -h on
Hibernation failed with the following error: The request is not supported.

The following items are preventing hibernation on this system.
        An internal system component has disabled hibernation.
                Hypervisor

Microsoft article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-R2-and-2012/hh831410(v=ws.11)?redirectedfrom=MSDN

Sleep support

Sleep and hibernate are no longer disabled when the Hyper-V role is installed.

What value does this change add?

Computers running Hyper-V can be put into sleep or hibernate mode. This is particularly useful to users who are running Hyper-V on laptops computers.


Thank you

What is the easiest way to connect a USB thumb drive in Hyper V version 10.0.18362.1? I need to move some info from into (Windows 7) running in my Hyper V. I have used another virtual machine and the USB would show up, you had to tell it to connect. I cant even find it in Hyper V.

Hi, 

I am setting up some event ID monitoring for the Hyper V server and could not find a proper list of all Error and Critical event IDs.  

Is there any Microsoft official documentation which list all Error and Critical event IDs to monitor in Hyper-V-VMMS/Admin log? 

Thanks in advance 

Micrsoft ASR Synchroization Error : Synchronization Critical

Hello. My name is Tim

I'm new to this forum but having a strange issue. I have 2 x Hyper-V 2012
R2 hosts (HV01 has 5 VM's that replicate and HV02 has 4 VM's) which have
been replicating for literally 3 year with no issues. Its been running
like clockwork. 1 week ago there was an ISP outage but nothing happened
to the Hosts - just the internet link went off for about 24 hours. When I
checked the Recovery Vault in the Azure portal and selected the ASR
Summary which showed it was talking to the agents on the 2  Hosts but
the VM's were not replicating.

On HV01 I reinstalled the MS ASR Provider Agent then I did a server
refresh from the portal. That worked and the 5 VM's are now
synchronizing after selecting Resume Replication. No issues.

I repeated this exactly on HV02 and did a server refresh from the portal
and when I select Resume Replication under the Hyper-V manager it
immediately states Replication Error. As the 2 x hosts are ina  Cluster
Failover, if I 'Live Migrate' any of the 4 VM's to HV01 I can resume
replication and it works perfectly. If I take a working HV01 VM and live
migrate to HV02 it will not update.

I've looked through the Event Log and just can't see any entries. The
Symantec Firewall and Windows Firewall has been turned off. The Recoery
Agent is the latest. Server atching done as I though it was a .NET issue
..... but still I can't Sync these servers btu there's communication going on with the agent.

The storage is OK and hosts are OK. I feel there is a registry entry
somewhere preventing the replication as the Azure Recovery Vault sees
all the servers states the RPO but really isn't helpful in resolving
this.

Can anyone help?

Dear All,

I had recently installed a new server. I have two VM. Now i made a mistake of having the main important application installed in the physical server and another two application installed in each of the two VMs. Now due to the heavy usage of the RAM in Physical machines i having issues with running VMs since its RAM requirements are not met. I have 48 GB ram in total. Please advise what options i have to make it work smooth.

Thanks in advance.

Hyper-V virtual controller for I/O intensive drives?

$
0
0

Good morning,

In the world of VMWare where I'm far more comfortable, it's always been best practice to run I/O intensive applications (Read: SQL, SQL, SQL, and maybe large file servers w/Windows Dedupe enabled) with a dedicated virtual storage controller (namely a pvscsi) for the VVOL/VMDKs

I can't find any documentation anywhere, from anyone on what the Hyper-V synthetic/virtual SCSI Controller limits and/or best practices are for such workloads, let alone where the tipping point is to adding another one.

Thoughts or links to material I could go through?  I feel like I've exhausted Google and Microsoft's material.

Storage Migration of VHD Set Volumes

$

0

I don't feel like I should have to ask this question, but MS documentation has taken a complete nose dive in recent years and apparently no one else has tried this or asked about it on the internet. I have searched and searched and can't find any information on this at all.

In any case, I have a 4 host Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V cluster setup connected to FC shared storage. All VMs are hosted on CSVs, and we have a few guest clusters that are using VHD Sets for their shared storage.

My question is, can VHD Sets be storage migrated to another volume? When attempting to do this, I receive the following error:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Microsoft-Windows-Hyper-V-VMMS
Event ID: 20820
Event Description: Storage migration for virtual machine 'VMGUEST1' (33335F10-XXXX-BBBB-CCCC-334E4A44AAAA) failed with error 'Unspecified error' (0x80004005).

Again, I have found nothing that says this is not possible with VHD Sets. However, I do know this was a limitation of shared vhdx.

HyperV guest Nic issue

Hi 

I have copied from backup the disk images of a server 2016 which was running on a HyperV (2016) server and re created the server on a new server ( same spec, make and model), I have used server 2016 again and created with the same named virtual switch 

when i boot up the VM the server loads ok and lets me log in BUT the network card has no IP4 or IP6 protocols.If i try add them it says that the feature cannot be added as the file cannot be created as the file already exists.

I have tried deleting the network card and rebooting

I have tried showing disabled adaptors in device manager and removed them 

any ideas what to do next.

I restored another server (2012r2 the same way on the same new server and this works perfectly so I dont think its the Virtual switch thats at fault, 

any advice would be great

Thanks

Windows 10 Pro (1903 - build 18362.836) + Hyper-V + Ubuntu 20.04 (quick create) = DNS does not resolve inside VM

$
0
0

Hi, I just created an Ubuntu 20.04 VM (using Quick Create) in hyper-v on a Windows 10 Pro machine (version 1903, build 18362.836)

and while I can ping/telnet to other hosts (both on my local lan and also on the internet) DNS resolution does not work.

I am using the "default switch" for the VM with the default settings. The host machine has no issues with DNS resolution.

I also have an ubuntu console via WSL, and it has no issues with DNS resolution.

For example in the Ubuntu VM:

>nslookup microsoft.com

I get:

;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

When I try name resolution with an external DNS server (e.g. cloudflare)

>nslookup microsoft.com 1.1.1.1

I get:

;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

Or when I try this:

>dig @1.1.1.1 microsoft.com

I get:

; <<>> DiG 9.16.1-Ubuntu <<>> @1.1.1.1 microsoft.com
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

(both of these commands work find in my Ubuntu WSL console, and nslookup works find in the windows CMD terminal)

From within the Ubuntu VM:

I can ping the cloudflare DNS server using the ip address (e.g. ping 1.1.1.1) so networking and ICMP is working.

I can telnet to 1.1.1.1 on port 53, so TCP is working (other IPs work as well)

...and this works:

>nc -z -v -u 1.1.1.1 53

Connection to 1.1.1.1 53 port [udp/domain] succeeded!

So I can reach an external DNS server via UDP on port 53, and that works too, so doesn't seem like it can be a problem with networking, firewalls, VPNs, whatever... (I've tried several other public DNS servers, including google (8.8.8.8) with the same results.

...and yet no attempt to resolve a hostname (or even a reverse lookup) works.

Interestingly, if I force a TCP connection for dig with the +tcp flag, I can get hostnames to resolve, but only with external servers. In other words:

This works: >dig @1.1.1.1 microsoft.com +tcp

This does not: >dig microsoft.com +tcp

/etc/resolv.conf is:

nameserver 127.0.0.53

options edns0

search mshome.net

and the output of systemd-resolve --status is:

(note: 192.168.150.81 is the IP address of the "vEthernet (Default Switch)" Ethernet adapter)

Everything (hyper-V, the default switch, Ubuntu, etc.) is using default settings. I'm at a loss. I could understand if simply doing a name lookup via nslookup using the default name servers didn't work, as that is probably a resolver configuration problem. However, specifying an external, reachable DNS sever, and it STILL fails to resolve (at least with the default UDP), and ONLY with the VM -- everything else, including WSL, works fine... I don't get it.

Anyone have any ideas?

Hi all,

Win 2019 Hyper-V failed to generate delta - Error: Size of change tracking file exceeded the maximum size limit. (0xC03A0021)

$

I replicated Windows 2012 R2 VM from Windows 2012 R2 Hyper-V host to Windows 2019 Hyper-V.

Then removed replication and enabled replication of the same VM to another Windows 2012 R2 host. Initial replication succeed and in general it works fine, but every morning it stops with the following error messages and requires resynchronisation:

Hyper-V could not perform the change tracking action for virtual machine 'VM Name'. (Virtual machine ID C30836E4-6AA2-4253-BADF-4560AB3EF737)

Failed to switch the change tracking log file for virtual machine 'VM Name'. (Virtual machine ID C30836E4-6AA2-4253-BADF-4560AB3EF737) - Error: Size of change tracking file exceeded the maximum size limit. (0xC03A0021) 

Virtual machine 'VM Name' requires resynchronization to get back into an operational state. (Virtual machine ID C30836E4-6AA2-4253-BADF-4560AB3EF737)

Hyper-V failed to generate delta for virtual machine 'VM Name': Operation aborted (0x80004004). (Virtual machine ID C30836E4-6AA2-4253-BADF-4560AB3EF737)

I suspect it happens due to full MSSQL server backup taking place inside the VM overnight into one of its disks and that disk is a part of the replication. The size of the backup disk is 1Tb.

Having said that this has been working fine for a number of years on the original Windows 2012 R2 host and the same VM with all the disks (including 1Tb backup disk) was happily being replicated to another Win 2012 R2 host without any issues. The only change now is that this VM is now on Win 2019, so why would it fail to work on Win 2019?

HYPER-V 2016 Host after error event-id 19062 - HYPER-V VMs are frozen

$

Hi,

I have a big problem with a HYPER-V 2016 (Std.) host and frozen VMs.

On the host, 8 VMs run with replication on a second host.The replication interval is every 15 min.

All work fine for 2-3 days - until a first event-id error on one VM guest occurs (no error before!):

****************************************************************************************************

Timeout for "VM1 guest SRV" while waiting for execution of the "Create a reference point" operation.The virtual machine is currently doing the following: "Deprecated reference points are cleaned".(ID of virtual machine: 573ADD49-CFF3-4B24-B2E9-76767E0BCFC3)

protocoll-Name: Microsoft-Windows-Hyper-V-VMMS/Admin
source: Hyper-V-VMMS
event-id: 19062
Level: error
user: SYSTEM

****************************************************************************************************

After this error an event-id: 33680 occurs followed by event-id: 32546 and event-id: 32026 (error while deltageneration)

After this first error, it takes about 5-15 minutes and other VMs report the same error.

Then all VMs run into the same error (every 5-15 min.)

If the last VMs generate this error -  It starts to freeze all VMs.

All VMs Show the Status: "Creating a reference point - planned"

On the first VMs this status is shown in 2-3 instances.

On this point all VMs not more accessible. Only a HYPER-Host reboot solve the problem (for the next 2-3 days).

It is striking that the replication goes bad - status critical.It must be renewed.

What have I done:

Memory is still very much free.  70 GB from 128 GB

CPU have only 6-7 % ussage.

Disk storage is still very much free. (DAS with ReFS)

What is the Problem? Who can help me?

Thanx.

Hyper-V Server 2016 Replication Issues, stuck on Creating a reference point

$

Hi all,

Config: 2 Node Cluster, with Windows SMB 3 Storage for VM's

I took the plunge, and migrated from Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 to 2016, and have had some fun and games on the way...  I've now got one major issue, and was hoping someone would shed some light on the issue:

Enable replication for a VM, whilst it is powered off.  Replication completes successfully.  When I power up the VM, changes are detected and replication kicks off to copy the changes to the replica.  At the same time there is a new "Creating a reference point" part which starts off, and this is where the issue is.... it is getting stuck there at around 50%.  I can't shut the VM down, power off doesn't work, can't kill the process, or shut the Host down, apart from a Physical power off.

Host Event Log Entry that ties in with the issue is:
'VMTEST01' timed out while waiting to perform the 'Cleaning up stale reference point(s)' operation. The virtual machine is currently performing the following operation: 'Creating a reference point'

I have tried a few different VM's, cleanly built, and they have the same issue.

The exact same setup on 2012 R2 worked perfectly.

Any ideas?


Set-VMFirmware PreferredNetworkBootProtocol IPv6 not working as expected

$
0
0

Dear community,

I am trying to build an IPv6-only lab with Hyper-V (running on Windows 10 2004).

At this moment, I am trying to make the machine boot from network over IPv6.

Based on the Set-VMFirmware command documentation the following command should force a Generation 2 Virtual Machine to use IPv6 to boot from network (via UEFI IPv6 stack):

Set-VMFirmware –VMName TestVM –PreferredNetworkBootProtocol IPv6

When I run it from an elevated PowerShell, the command succeeds. When I afterwards run 

Get-VMFirmware –VMName TestVM

I see that the PreferredNetworkBootProtocol has indeed been changed to IPv6.

But even then if I shut down and start the VM again, it only attempts to boot via IPv4. I only see a ">>Start PXE over IPv4." prompt, then the boot fails completely (IPv6 is not tried at all, I don't see any DHCPv6 requests on the network). I only see the white screen from Hyper-V UEFI claiming that "No operating system was loaded." Obviously, as it didn't even try.

Is this a bug or intentional feature? Do you have any tips on how to overcome this issue?

Thanks.

Regards,

Radek Zajic
