Greetings,
When I try to configre the guest OS settings to mount the CD/DVD drive to an ISO image I have setting on a file share, I consistently get an error. The only time I have been able to mount an ISO since upgrading to RC0 (I don't remember if I tested this in the BETA) is when the ISO is locally on the Windows 2008 Hyper-V server.
To be specific, I get the following error:
Virtual Machine Connection (title of the window)
Inserting the disk failed.
Failed to add device 'Microsoft Virtual CD/DVD disk'.
User account does not have sufficient privelage to open attachment '\\remoteserver\share\ISONAME.ISO'.
Error: 'General access denied error'
'NEWGUESTOSNAME' failed to add device 'Microsoft Virtual CD/DVD Disk'. (VMID 26C8B66F-5D3F-47F9-9D80-474D0F778522)
'NEWGUESTOSNAME': User Account does not have sufficient privelage to open attachement '\\remoteserver\share\ISONAME.ISO'.
Error: 'General access denied error' (0x80070005). (VMID 26C8B66F-5D3F-47F9-9D80-474D0F778522)
I am not sure what credentials it is using. It looks almost like it is using the new computer name as credentials or something like that. The account I am logged in as at the time is a Domain Admin and has access to every server and every share. I can browse to the ISO just fine through the Hyper-V Insert Disk function, it just won't take.
I have checked the Hyper-V server settings and the Guest OS settings and can't find where to specifcy what account to use to connect to remote ISOs. Anyone have any clue on what I am doing wrong?
