Create Cluster Wizard in SCVMM 2012 doesn't have IP Address page

i installed the SCVMM 2012 version 3.0.6019.0.
When i use the Create Hyper-V Cluster under Fabric page to create a Cluster.
the Create Cluster Wizard doesn't have the IP Address page to let me input the IP for the Cluster.
after i answer all the wizard, the Install Cluster job shown Error 25325
The cluster creation failed because of error At least one IP address needs to be configured..
so, how to solve it?
thanks alot.

Old thread..
But I got the same problem creating a cluster on SCVMM 2012 R2. To get around it I instead created the cluster using powershell and it worked great:
$HostName1 = "HOST01"
$HostName2 = "HOST02"
$Clustername = "CLUSTER01"
$ClusterIP = "192.168.1.50"
$VMMRunAsAccount = "VMM_AdminAccount"
$credential = Get-SCRunAsAccount -Name $VMMRunAsAccount
$hostsList = @()
$hostsList += Get-SCVMHost -Computername $HostName1
$hostsList += Get-SCVMHost -Computername $HostName2
Install-SCVMHostCluster -ClusterName $Clustername -VMHost $hostsList -RunAsynchronously -Credential $credential -ClusterIPAddress $ClusterIP

Hi Guillaume Pincon,
Please first update both server to latest update and turn off the Windows firewall for narrow down this issue then try build the cluster again, one of the cluster create condition is all the servers should have the same software updates (patches) and service
packs. If all above steps not work please post the second validation error information.

SCVMM 2012 - Doesn't show Server 2012 R2 Editions

Hello,
I have SCVMM 2012 with the latest service pack and agent versions installed. I have Server 2012 R2 Standard edition VMs running but I'm unable to select the correct operating system from the General tab under the VM properties. The most current operating
system to choose from is 64-bit edition of Windows Server 2012 Standard. How do I make 2012 R2 Standard an option from the drop down list? Thanks
Pat

upgrade to SCVMM 2012 R2 - that adds full support for the 2012 R2 operating system.
Otherwise you never add additional OS support.

Creating guest clusters in SCVMM 2012 R2

I’m very new to SCVMM so please bear with me.
I have a basic lab environment consisting of two hosts clustered using some cheap shared storage.
I’ve installed SCVMM and deployed a few highly available VMs.
I want to deploy a guest cluster using with a shared VHDX.
Is the only way to do it by using a a service template, or can I do it another way?
If I do, do I need to create a VM template first to then include it in my service template?
As part of the pre reqs outlined here -
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249412.aspx it says I need to have the shared VHDX already available.
How do I go about creating this vhdx file on the shared storage?
Thanks

Thanks,
Is using a service template the only way to do it? Do I need to create a VM template first to be used in my service template? Also, do I need create the shared
VHDX disk manually somehow or does this get created as part of the service template side of things?

2012 R2 Cluster - Issues creating cluster

New Dell VRTX server with 2 server blades. Installed Server 2012 R2 on both blades and all working ok.
Ran the 'Validate Configuration' wizard and all ok apart from Storage Spaces, which we won't need as we have hardware RAID.
Then ran create cluster wizard and works ok until it goes to create and then fails:-
Adding special permissions to the computer object failed.
Trying to add 'Full-Access' permissions for security principal
S-1-5-21-1054053922-559824688-2072063007-68696 to computer object
CN=UKWOR-CLUSTER01,OU=Cluster,OU=SERVER,OU=HAR,OU=UK,OU=AVL,DC=xxxx,DC=xxxx,DC=lan
failed. Verify that the user running create cluster has permissions to update
the computer object in Active Directory Domain Services. The parameter is
incorrect.
"CreateClusterNameCOIfNotExists (6888): Configuring Computer Object UKWOR-CLUSTER01 to act as the CNO on DC \\ xxx.lan"
"CreateClusterNameCOIfNotExists (6916): Configuring Cluster CNO resource."

Error <87> (Step ErrorPutSD)."
"PhaseManager::EndPhase (235): Phase 109
"CreateNetworkName (4618): Failed to create Computer Object for NetName Cluster Name on DC \\ xxx.lan. Error 87."
I've tried this also by pre-creating the computer object (in the right OU and following guides online for setting the permissions, disabling it etc. I do not have Domain Admin rights as we are a large multi-national company. But I can create computer accounts
in my OU and I have given the administrator account that's logged into the servers the same rights on the relevant OU.
Any suggestions or ideas as to what I can do to progress with this as I've run out of ideas :(

Thanks for the info PMThomas,
@Lerun: For us it was permissions as well in the end. A quick fix I found to get arround it until you find the offending AD permissions is to create the new Cluster Computer Object in AD. Disable the account. Then go into security for the
Computer Object and disable inheritance, make sure you choose remove when promted. For us this must have removed the offending AD permissions as we could then create the cluster.
I've not managed to work out which permission it was yet. I guess I could test by removing each of the inheritted permissions one by one until the cluster wizard is successfull.

Unable to create cluster, hangs on forming cluster

Hi all,
I am trying to create a 2 node cluster on two x64 Windows Server 2008 Enterprise edition servers. I am running the setup from the failover cluster MMC and it seems to run ok right up to the point where the snap-in says creating cluster. Then it seems to hang on "forming cluster" and a message pops up saying "The operation is taking longer than expected". A counter comes up and when it hits 2 minutes the wizard cancels and another message comes up "Unable to sucessfully cleanup".
The validation runs successfully before I start trying to create the cluster. The hardware involved is a HP EVA 6000, two Dell 2950's
I have included the report generated by the create cluster wizard below and the error from the event log on one of the machines (the error is the same on both machines).
Is there anything I can do to give me a better indication of what is happening, so I can resolve this issue or does anyone have any suggestions for me?
Thanks in advance.

I am having the exact same issue... but these are on freshly created virtual machines... no group policy or anything...
I am 100% unable to create a Virtual Windows server 2012 failover cluster using two virtual fiber channel adapters to connect to the shared storage.
I've tried using GUI and powershell, I've tried adding all available storage, or not adding it, I've tried renaming the server and changing all the IP addresses....
To reproduce:
1. Create two identical Server 2012 virtual machines
(My Config: 4 CPU's, 4gb-8gb dynamic memory, 40gb HDD, two network cards (one for private, one for mgmt), two fiber cards to connect one to each vsan.)
2. Update both VM's to current windows updates
3. Add Failover Clustering role, Reboot, and try to create cluster.
Cluster passed all validation tests perfectly, but then it gets to "forming cluster" and times out =/
Any assistance would be greatly appreciate.

Unattend.xml parsing/merging issue with SCVMM 2012 R2

Hi all
I have a problem with a new install of SCVMM 2012 R2. I have created templates for 2008 R2, 2012 and 2012 R2. I have an issue with the unattend.xml losing some of its configuration when the 2012 and 2012 R2 templates are built, this issue however doesn't
occur on a 2008 R2 template build.
I have generated unattend.xml files for all 3 OS's using System Image Manager in the latest AIK using the original install.wim from each OS media.
In the unattend.xml file I have specified language settings, and a few other bits but the issue I have is when I configure autologon with local admin and password. I specify a logon count of 1, I also specify a GUIRunOnce command in SCVMM and not the answerfile.
The problem is the resulting merged unattend.xml has a logon count of 999 and no GUIRunOnce command. I have tried different variations where I specify GUIRunOnce in the xml and not SCVMM, applying the autologon to the Template or Guest OS profile and
all end with the resulting xml with logon count of 999 and no GUIRunOnce. If I remove the autologon part then GUIRunOnce gets parsed and works correctly.
As mentioned this only happens with Server 2012 and 2012 R2, 2008 R2 works correctly.
Any ideas?

Hi Kevin
I am struggling with the same thing during bare metal installs of Hyper-V hosts. In my case I have managed to narrow it down to the language settings in the oobe pass. If I include them, parsing of the unattend file halts (without an explicit error anywhere)
and the host fails to join the domain. Could you try to leave out the language settings in oobe pass and see if it then completes as expected? Would be interesting to see if it actually is the same issue with a slightly different flavour :)
EDIT: Got a bit further now with the new release of WS2012 R2. All the testing I've done has been with the 05182 build. Stumbled across KB2913316 which stated that a new build (31419) was released december 11th. Allthough the KB does not directly apply to our
issue I thought I'd give it a go, so I went about building a new vhdx-image. Low and behold - the first test went smoothly applying all the settings in the unattend file! I'm going to continue testing to make sure the successful run wasn't just a fluke.

Missing Search Field when using 3.1 Create App Wizard ?

Hi
2 points which look like bugs to me;
1 - In all previous versions whenever I used the create app wizard to build up a list of pages, reports always included the 'search across any varchar field' funtionality. This seems to have disappeared when using the Classic form of reports. It is obviously there if you use an Interactive report.
2 - Again when using the Create App wizard, if I use the Classic form (in order to be able to also 'Generate Analysis Pages') these do get built, but not linked in any way (tab, list region, button etc) to any other pages. I can link them myself, but I am demonstrating APEX here and it doesn't look so good....
Can someone just quickly confirm I am not going mad here ?
Jules

Hi Jules,
You're not going mad! I've reviewed the behaviour of the Search field and the Analysis Pages link using releases 3.0.1 and 3.1.1, and there is a difference in behaviour between the two versions.
Classic Reports generated via the Create Application Wizard in 3.1.1 should have a Search text field above the report region, however this field is missing. I've logged bug 7185486 for this issue. Classic Report&Forms generated via the Create Application Wizard, with the "Include Analysis Pages" option selected, are missing a link to the Analysis pages in 3.1.1. I've logged bug 7185486 for this issue. I've updated both bugs with a workaround. A fix for these issues will be available in a future release. Thanks for bringing these two issues to our attention.
Regards,
Hilary

Rename scvmm 2012 server

Hello ,
I have question regarding scvmm 2012 server
We have successful installed and configure scvmm 2012 server along with sql on same server
configuration for hyper v servers and now we want to change the name & IP address of the server.
I tested this in test environment and started library related errors and other errors into this .
So just wanted to know what needs to be done to get it work properly

Hi Sir,
Based on my understanding , "reinstall VMM with a retained database" may cover the needs :
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc764334.aspx
After uninstalling the VMM then perform changing computer name and IP address for the server :

Hyper-V / NVGRE Gateways / SCVMM 2012 R2

I am currently investigating the roll out of network virtualisation using Hyper-V, Windows Server gateway and SCVMM 2012 R2
I have tested deploying a single WSG in a single datacentre and I can get VMs working with Network Virtualisation.
I have a requirement to deploy network virtualisation in multiple datacentres so that I am able to amongst other things live migrate VMs between datacentres with next to no downtime.
My question is what do I need to deploy to make this work?
For example do I need a WSG in each datacentre and if so are they completely independent of one another or are they aware of one another?
I understand that each datacentre will have its own provider address space but I'm assuming the customer VM network will be the same at each datacentre - this would mean the customer VM network gateway IP would be in two locations but does this matter
if the provider addresses are different?
Is there anyone who has experience configuring WSG / NVGRE at multiple sites who could give some useful tips?
Thanks
John.

Hi Kristian
Thanks for getting back to me.
BTW the NVGRE white paper is excellent so a big thank you!
To answer your points:
Will the PA network be routable - Yes, I'm assuming I would configure at least one routable PA network per Datacentre - I don't really want to be stretching networks across Datacentres?
Will the hosts in the other datacenter be able to reach the hosts in the primary datacenter where the WSG servers are running -
Yes
I have now destroyed my lab environment and this might seem like a stupid question but the PA gateway address is located on my router and not the NVGW?
Forgetting HA for a moment would you recommend deploying a NV Gateway per datacentre or is this over complicating things? For example if I live migrated a NV VM from DC1 to DC2 would it use DC2's NVGW for external access or will it still use
DC1's?
In my head it seems more straight forward to deploy a HA NVGW at one DC which is used by all other DCs and as you suggested use something like Hyper-V Replica. Do you know if this is supported
Many Thanks
John.

I can't find failover cluster management after creating hyper-v cluster on SCVMM 2012 R2

I've created a hyper-v cluster on scvmm 2012 r2 but I can't find the failover cluster manager to move storage resources. all hosts are showing to have hyperv role and failover clustering feature installed. disk Witness in Quorum is good, same as for the
other CSV lun. Please help me Microsoft. Thank you.

The management consoles are not getting installed while building the cluster through SCVMM. However, its not mandatory to have the management tools on the server. You can have it on a different machine with this management tools installed and connect to
this cluster remotely.
Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.

Live Migration between two WS2012 R2 Clusters with SCVMM 2012 R2 creates multiple objects on Cluster

Hi,
I'm seeing an issue when migrating VM's between two 2012 R2 Hyper-V Clusters, using VMM 2012 R2, that have their Storage provided by a 4 Node Scale Out File Server Cluster that the two clusters share.
A migration between the two clusters is successful and the VM is operation but I'm left with two roles added to the cluster the VM has moved to instead of the expected one.
For example: Say I have a VM that was created on cluster A with SCVMM, resulting in a name of : "SCVMM Test-01 Resources"
I then do a live migration to Cluster B which has access to the same storage and then I end up with two new roles instead of one.
"SCVMM abw-app-fl-01 Resources" and "abw-app-fl-01"
The "SCVMM abw-app-fl-01 Resources" is left in an unknown state and "abw-app-fl-01" is operational.
I can safely delete "SCVMM abw-app-fl-01 Resources" and everything still works but it looks like something is failing during the process.
Has anyone else seen this?
I'll probably have one of my guys open a support ticket in the new year but was wondering if anyone else is seeing this.
Kind regards,
Jas :)

In my case the VMs where created in VMM in my one and only Hyper-V cluster (that's been created and is managed by VMM).
All Higly Available VM:s have a FCM role named "SCVMM vmname" where vmname is the name if the VM in VMM. On top of that a lot
of VM:s, but not all, have a second role name named vmname. Lots of name in that sentence.
All VMs that have duplicates are using the role named vmname.
I thought it had to do with whether a VM had been migrated so I took one that never had been migrated and did. It did not get a duplicate.
Is there any progress on this?

After host crash - cluster no longer working correctly in SCVMM 2012

Hi
one of our nodes in our cluster crashed. It came back. All the VMs on this host were running on other hosts so failover worked fine BUT for 2 VMs. One of those 2 VMs is - according to VMM - running on the crashed host. The other VM is - according to VMM
- running on another host node which did not fail.
I have a lot of job errors saying that VMM library object virtuals disk is missing of those two VMs. So I looked into the FailoverManager. There I was able to see that the VMs are running on totaly different host nodes then what VMM tells me. In addition
those VMs work just fine. I connected to both of them over Hpyer-V and they are just fine and the application also work without a problem. Please not those VMs are not shown twice or missing in VMM.
Live Migration to the Host node that crashed is no longer possible. But when looking into the status on VMM - it tells me that everything is fine. From Hpyer-V Manager I am able to do live migration to this host. But no longer from VMM console.
I rebooted the host node with no change. I refreshed the host nodes (all) in FailoverManager and in SCVMM, I refreshed the cluster... nothing. So I wanted to remove the cluster from SCVMM and re-add it. Doesn't work... It started with the first host and
after that my cluster was somewhat broken (I thought that removing cluster - NOT "uncluster" - wouldn't have an effect on the cluster itself - well I was wrong). Anyway I repaired the cluster it is back into VMM but I still have the issues with the VMs. There
are only warning on the VMM server that the library object (vhd) is missing but on the cluster nodes itself there are no errors.
Any ideas what I could do. I have no clue what to do about the VM which is supposed to be on this host but in FailoverManager it is on a totally different server. Any ideas?

Hi,
version is SCVMM 2012 RC - yes there were errors with live migration but unfortunately I receive so many warning messages now (about missing library objects for vhd files) that the errors from tuesday are already gone. I guess they might be in database ...
The log files you asked for are from 2011 when the cluster was created - no entries after that.
No the cluster is not in Maintenance or Pause mode - i checked that. Remove and re-join the cluster with VMM 2012 RC was already tried. As described above: that failed - the first cluster node was removed and after that the job failed in VMM. I found the
error message quite ironic because it said that "cluster node 1" is no longer reachable. Nooo really... it just had been removed a second before the "remove cluster" job failed. Unfortunately this job played havoc with my cluster. It took me 4 hours to bring
it back online (mostly VMs).
The good thing is, my cluster is somewhat working again - meaning after I repaired it and was able to re-add the missing cluster node back into VMM live migration now works both from Hyper-V and from SCVMM. The VERY bad part is that now several more VMs
are - according to VMM - runing on "cluster node 1" while the Failover Manager says they are runing on "cluster node 2 or 3...". In addition I get many more warning messages. This error is the one I am trying to eleminate. As said I haven't found anything
which helped me narrow done a solution. Everything I tried so far didn't have any response or - like the cluster - it made things quite bad (temporary). I checked the Event logs on the cluster nodes and VMM itself. Currently there are no error messages there.
Warning messages in VMM:
Warning (23234) VM Refresher encountered an error while creating or updating <vm name> with id XXXXX. VMM cannot find VirutalHardDisk object XXX. Ensure the library object is valid, and then try the operation again.
Warning (10647) The virtual network adapter for the virtual machine <vm name> is connected to a virtual network switch <swtich name> that is not valid.
Does anyone know how to change the time interval of the "VM Refresher"? I get those warning messages for each VM every 2 min. As there are several VMs affected by now I have several thousend messages each day...
