Backing up Windows Server 2012 R2 Virtual Machine

When I try to back my Windows Server 2012 R2 Virtual machine up to a NAS, using the Windows Server Utility I get the following errors:
There was a failure in preparing the backup image in one of the volumes in the backup set.
Detailed error: The process can not access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file.
When viewing the errors in Event viewer I get the following error:
The backup operation that started at '‎2014‎-‎03‎-‎12T10:23:08.681735200Z' has failed with following error code '0x807800C5' (There was a failure in preparing the backup image of one of the volumes in the backup set.). Please review the event details for
a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Louis

ODBC Problems with SQL Server 2012 on Virtual Machine

I am having problem with my application after my IT department upgraded to SQL Server 2012 with error "ConngetDataToModify.vi:1"<ERR>Object 0x2222222 is not valid. I have 4 servers running the same executable without problem before the upgraded. However, after the upgrade 2 of these Server are having the problem with the ODBC connection. Here are my setup, the application was created using LabView8.5, we have 2 physical server box running Window Server 2003, 2 Virtual Machine on Windows Server 2008, and a Virtual Machine with SQL 2012 Server. The 2 physical server running the executable without a problem after the upgrade, but the 2 Virtual Server were unable to connects to the ODBC connection. Anyone have any idea why this is happening , it is the problem with compatibility between my application with Server 2008 and SQL 2012 Server, or is there a problem with both beings Virtual Servers? As I said, the 2 physical Server seem to be running without any problem with the upgrade.

My guess is that the problem is not specifically with LV. This should be relatively easy to check if you create a UDL file and double click it. This opens a Microsoft wizard which allows you to configure and test DB connections (the UDL file itself is basically just a text file which holds a connection string). If it doesn't work there, it won't work in LV.
As for what the actual problem is, a common culprit is the firewall, which is easy enough to check by disabling it. Another option is the surface area configuration of SQL Server, which will not allow network connections unless you tell it to.
It should probably also be noted that LV 8.5 is not officially supported on Windows Server. I'm assuming that's not the issue, but be aware of it.
Try to take over the world!

Windows Server 2012 Pooled Virtual Desktop collection GetVMstate issue

I am trying to create a Pooled Desktop collection with my Powered off VM and it errors out The
virtual desktop must be in a stopped state: Could not identify the state of the virtual desktop. Ensure that the RD virtualisation host server is available on the network and the virtual desktop is shut down
In the debug logs it shows.
Component RdmsModel: GetVMstate for Vm Win7_BaseVM failed with error 16386
Component RDExceptionHandler: Could not identify the state of the virtual desktop. Ensure that the RD Virtualization Host server sunflower-1.HYPERQA.NUTANIX.COM is available on the network and that the virtual
desktop Win7VMSF is shut down.
Please help on resolving this GetVMState issue.

Hi Krishna,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
When you are configuring RDVH initially, please see that you have meet prerequisites. Remember that you need these pre-requirements:
• Database based on SQL Server 2008 R2
• Static IP Address for all Broker
• Round Robin DNS
• All RD Broker must be members of AD Windows Group (es. RDCB Server Group)
• The group must be insert into SQL Server as sysadmin ONLY for the DB creation. After that DB will be created give the db_owner permission only for their DB
More information.
Windows Server 2012 R2: Unable Add New VDI Template
In addition, we need all RD Broker must have the same SQL Native Client as main SQL Server (es. SQL Server 2012 SP1). The Connection Broker server's computer account MUST be a member of the local administrators group on the Virtual Host (RDS Host) machine and
then reboot the server. Finally check the result.

Hope it helps!

Server 2012 cluster - virtual machine live migration does not work

Hi,
We have a hyper-v cluster with two nodes running Windows Server 2012. All the configurations are identical.
When I try to make a Live migration from one node to the other I get an error message saying:
Live migration of 'Virtual Machine XXXXXX' failed.
I get no other error messages, not even in event viewer. This same happens with all of our virtual machines.
A normal Quick migration works just fine for all of the virtual machines, so network configuration should not be an issue.
The above error message does not provide much information.

Hi,
Please check whether your configuration meet live migration requirement:
Two (or more) servers running Hyper-V that:
Support hardware virtualization.
Yes they support virtualization.
Are using processors from the same manufacturer (for example, all AMD or all Intel).
Both Servers are identical and brand new Fujitsu-Siemens RX300S7 with the same kind of processor (Xeon E5-2620).
Belong to either the same Active Directory domain, or to domains that trust each other.
Both nodes are in the same domain.
Virtual machines must be configured to use virtual hard disks or virtual Fibre Channel disks (no physical disks).
All of the vitual machines have virtual hard disks.
Use of a private network is recommended for live migration network traffic.
Have tried this, but does not help.
Requirements for live migration in a cluster:
Windows Failover Clustering is enabled and configured.
Yes
Cluster Shared Volume (CSV) storage in the cluster is enabled.
Yes
Requirements for live migration using shared storage:
All files that comprise a virtual machine (for example, virtual hard disks, snapshots, and configuration) are stored on an SMB share. They are all on the same CSV
Permissions on the SMB share have been configured to grant access to the computer accounts of all servers running Hyper-V.
Requirements for live migration with no shared infrastructure:
No extra requirements exist.
Also please refer to this article to check whether you have finished all preparation works for live migration:

Windows Update fails on Server 2012 R2 Virtual Machine

I have set up a virtual network with two virtual machines. The first VM is Server 2008 R2 and is set up as a domain controller. The second VM is Server 2012 R2, and has been joined to the domain. The DC (TestVM1) is also set up as a DNS server.
From TestVM2 (Server 2012 R2), I am able to log in using a domain login, and I am able to browse to a public website.
I was able to run Windows Updates from TestVM1, but when I attempt to run Windows Updates from TestVM2, it fails.
The Windows Update client shows "Error(s) found:" and "Code 8024402F".

I am having the exact same issue. Fresh build of Server 2012 R2 from the Microsoft Volume Licensing ISO. I tried before and after joining to the domain. Same error every time. Firewall is turned off. No AV. We do have a cloud proxy service, but I bypassed
that as a test and got the same error message. I also tried to stop wuauserv and cleaning out the folder and starting it back up. No joy as well. This is a VM server running on ESXi 5.1.  Server 2008 servers dont seem to have
an issue. Server 2012 server don't seem to have an issue. Only this new Server 2012 R2 server. My logs are below:

Windows server 2008 r2 virtual machine uses much less memory then it has assigned

Guys,
I had a virtual machine with windows 2008 r2 operating system, running sharepoint, on a server where it had 6gb RAM memory assigned.
Now I bought a new server, which has 32 gb of ram. I moved my virtual machine there, and assigned 24gb of RAM.
But after I started VM, in Windows Task Manager I see that system uses only about 6.5 GB of RAM assigned. That is not even close to 24gb, which it has available.
Is there any power shell script or anything else available to increase virtual machine memory usage?
Thank you.

Hi,
I found a KB similar described with your issue- the Hyper-V host cannot allocate more memory to the virtual machine because there is not enough free disk space to extend the
memory contents file, more detail symptoms please refer the following KB:
Dynamic Memory allocation in a Virtual Machine does not change although there is available memory on the host

Where do I download a Windows Server 2012 R2 .iso from, for use with Hyper-v?

Hello,
Where do I download a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard .iso from, for use with Hyper-v?
The only official download I can find is the evaluation version from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-windows-server-2012-r2
Is it recommended to use the evaluation version and then license it to make it a full version, or is there a better official download?
Thanks
Paul

Hi Brian,
I don't personally have an MSDN subscription.
So using the evaluation versions is ok?
With a Windows Server 2012 R2 license, you can have two
Windows Server 2012 R2 virtual
machines, so I assume I can turn evaluation version VMs into full fledged servers?
Thanks
Paul
How did you acquire a Server 2012 R2 license without any installation media? Can you get the installation media from the same source? How did you install 2012 R2 on the host?
Bill

Windows Server 2012 Virtual Machine Failure

I am running Windows Server 2012 R2 Host machine. In Hyper-V, I created a WS 2012 VM. The VM starts out OK, but after a few hours of work (configure and install SharePoint 2013), starts throwing errors (Machine had to re-boot). Eventually, the VM becomes
unstable and unable to re-boot. Last attempt threw this error in Hyper-V Event Manager:
'BISP2013' has encountered a fatal error. The guest operating system reported that it failed with the following error codes: ErrorCode0: 0x7A, ErrorCode1: 0x400207A0, ErrorCode2: 0xC0000185, ErrorCode3: 0x57BA6860, ErrorCode4: 0x40F4234. If the
problem persists, contact Product Support for the guest operating system. (Virtual machine ID 7E140D89-25B9-4D3B-835B-7BB882C629BB)
This has happened on multiple attempts occasionally ending with Error 0Xc000021a. Creating WS 2012 R2 VMs does not present this problem.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Mario

Hi Mario,
This should not happen here .
My suggestion is to download a new server2012 ISO and reinstall .
Also please refer to following "best practice configurations for sharepoint 2013":

Virtual RAID Array Migration to Windows Server 2012 R2 Disk offline, Degraded, Detached and split

My Residential server is used as a file and web server, however i also use it for learning so it has grown slow over the last couple of years, i now need to get it working ready for when i go to UNI. I have upgraded from windows server 2012 Standard to windows
server 2012r2 standard, i am on the same server, but have put a SSD as my primary drive(so i still have the old hard drive and can go back to that to get my data)
I have also done a BIOS update, so the logical disks (a 2TB RAID 1 with all my important documents) are not showing up on the RAID Configuration in the BIOS.
By changing settings i have managed to get the array to show up on server manager > File and storage services>Volumes>Storage Pools. however there are a number of exclamation marks shown next to the drive(s)
I read in a Technet
Article that i should "set
the storage pool to read-write "
I did this and then in the storage pool box at the top the exclamation mark says "Warning: Degraded".
In the Virtual Disks box (bottom left) the exclamation mark says "Unknown: Detached" and in the Physical Disks box (bottom right) it says "Warning Split" on the second disk.
I have disconnected all other Hard drives, however if i can't get my documents back will have to go back to windows server 2012. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Michael Booth

Hi,
It seems that the second disk is failed, you need to add a new disk to the storage pool to replace the failed disk.

Whenever I try to install them I receive an error
Googling the error, I have tried extracting the file and using CMD prompt to install the xml file to install but to no avail.
I have installed Windows Identity Foundation as a role. It is necessary for this to be
I have also noticed that all updates for a couple of weeks have failed. I have 2 other servers in the farm, both of which are joined to the same private network cannot look for updates with another error. Not sure if these are related.
Anyone know of anything like this?

In the "Digital Signature Details" dialog, click "View Certificate"
In the "Certificate" dialog, click "Install Certificate..."
In the "Certificate Import Wizard" dialog, select "Local Machine" (though current user might work, didn't use it, so I can not attest to it) and click "Next"
Select the "Place all certificates in the following store" option and click "Browse"
In the "Select Certificate Store" dialog, select "Trusted Publishers" and click "Ok"
Back in the "Certificate Import Wizard" click "Next"
You should now be at the "Completing the Certificate Import Wizard" step of the "Certificate Import Wizard" ... click "Finish"
You should get "Import was successful"
You should now be able to install the package.

Windows Server 2012/2012R2 NIC Teaming Mode

Hi,
Question 1:
In Windows Server 2012 the following teaming mode was recommended for Hyper-V NIC teams:
Teaming mode: Switch Independent
Load balancing mode: Hyper-V Port
All Adapers Active
In a session at TechEd 2014 it was stated that Dynamic is the new recommendation for Windows Server 2012 R2. However, a Microsoft PFE stated a few weeks ago that he would still recommend Hyper-V Port for Windows Server 2012 R2. What is your opinions around
this?
Question 2:
We have a Hyper-V Failover Cluster which isn`t migrated to 2012 R2 yet, it`s running 2012. In this cluster we use Switch Independent/Hyper-V Port for the team. We also use converged networking, having 2 physical adapters bound to the NIC team, as well as
3 virtual adapters in the management OS for management, CSV and Live Migration. Recently one of the team NICs failed, and this incident also caused the cluster membership on the affected node to go offline even though the other team NIC was
connected. Is this expected behaviour? Would the behaviour be different if 2012 R2 with Dynamic mode was being used?

Hello,
As for question number 1:
For Hyper-V workload it's recommended to use Dynamic with
Switch Independent mode. Why?
This configuration will distribute the load based on the TCP Ports address hash as modified by the Dynamic load balancing algorithm. The Dynamic load balancing algorithm will redistribute flows to optimize team member bandwidth utilization so individual
flow transmissions may move from one active team member to another. The algorithm takes into account the small possibility that redistributing traffic could cause out-of-order delivery of packets so it takes steps to minimize that possibility.
The receive side, however, will look identical to Hyper-V Port distribution. Each Hyper-V switch port’s traffic, whether bound for a virtual NIC in a VM (vmNIC) or a virtual NIC in the host (vNIC), will see all its inbound traffic arriving on a single
NIC.
This mode is best used for teaming in both native and Hyper-V environments except when:
1) Teaming is being performed in a VM,
2) Switch dependent teaming (e.g., LACP) is required by policy, or
3) Operation of a two-member Active/Standby team is required by policy.
As for question number 2:
The Switch Independent/Hyper-V Port will send packets using all active team members distributing the load based on the Hyper-V switch port number. Each Hyper-V port will be bandwidth limited to not more than one team member’s bandwidth because the port
is affinitized to exactly one team member at any point in time.
In all cases where this configuration was recommended back in Windows Server 2012 the new configuration in 2012 R2, Switch Independent/Dynamic, will provide better performance.
Microsoft recommend for a clustered Hyper-V deployment
in Windows server 2012 to use Switch Independent/Hyper-V Port as you mentioned and to configure
Hyper-V QoS that applies to the virtual switch. (Configure minimum bandwidth in
weight mode instead of in bits per second and Enable and configure QoS
for all virtual network adapters
Did you apply QoS on the Converged vSwitch after you
created the team?? However Nodes are considered down if they do not respond to 5 heartbeats. The Switch Independent/Hyper-V Port does not cause the cluster to goes down if one NIC failed. The issue is somewhere else and not in the teaming mode
that you choose.
Hope this help.

Windows Server 2012 R2 KMS - STATUS_SUCCESS

We are in the process of setting up a Windows Server 2012 R2 KMS server to replace our Windows Server 2008 R2 machine.
After installing the Volume Activation role and going through the volume activation tools 'wizard' i'm running into a problem.
When i try to commit the settings (like firewall exceptions, custom dns zones) i get an error stating the following:
The following error has occurred. Please resolve the error and try again.
Description:
STATUS_SUCCESS
And none of the settings have been aplied, and there are no eventlog entries stating whats wrong.
When i deploy a Windows Server 2012 (non R2) machine and go through the same process commiting the same settings works fine.
Anybody know what might be wrong here?

Man, i've been checking things for days, and THIS is the solution? :)
Thanks for the help man, this fixed it for me too!
... why something like this doesn't generate a real error code or something is beyond me.....

Windows Server 2012 R2 (VM). KB3000850 installed successfully but then after reboot it couldn't complete update & uninstalls

Hi,
Every time we try to install KB3000850 on a Windows Server 2012 R2 (Virtual), it says it installs successfully, reboots, but then before the logon screen comes up it says "We couldn't complete the updates, undoing changes..." and it uninstalls
the update. Yet, when you look at installed updates, it shows KB3000850 yet it's still availabe when you look for new updates, and if you run the update again manually, it doesn't say that it's already installed. What gives? :)
(no hyper-v)
Thank you!

Hi,
Please refer to Dave’s suggestion and check if help you to solve this issue.
Just addition, please also refer to following KB and check if can help you.
"Failure configuring Windows updates. Reverting changes.

Problems PXE booting Gen 2 Virtual Machines after Upgrading to Windows Server 2012 R2

My Current Setup:
I have two virtual machines set up with Hyper V on my Windows Server 2012 Server.
VM1: Configured to boot from an ISO file and runs Clonezilla server.
VM2: Configured to PXE boot using a legacy network adapter, and with a passthrough 250Gb hard disk.
These two VMs are connected to an external Virtual Switch, which allows physical machines to PXE boot to the Clonezilla server.
For the past few months I have been using this setup for two purposes:
1. To clone physical machines to the Clonezilla virtual server (as a backup).
2. To restore those image to the second VM if I find that need to get access to the files on the original image..
This has worked perfectly, except for the fact that the speed of the legacy network adapter on the second VM (which is required to PXE boot) is very slow. But I know this is because of the limitations in how the legacy adapter works...
Now my problem:
I found out that Gen 2 VMs allow you to PXE boot without having use a legacy network adapter, allowing me to image back to the VM faster. So I upgraded the Server to Server 2012 R2 . I then created the same two virtual machines on the R2 server. I can still
PXE boot the Gen 1 VM to the Clonezilla Server but I cannot get the Gen 2 VMs to PXE boot properly. They get an IP address from the Clonezilla Server but then just stop with the following screen. (note: I have disabled the Secure Boot).
Are Gen 2 VMs unable to pull down images from anything other than a WDS Server?
