Failed to move virtual machine storage

Hello guys.
I am trying to move a VM from a hyper-v 2012 R2 Failover cluster to a non clustered host (2012).
Let's say that the VM i need to move outside the cluster is called VM1. VM1's VHDX is on cluster's CSV. VM1 resides on node HV05
Cluster is called cluster01.
The host outside the cluster (but in the same domain) is HV25.
I've created a share folder on HV25 called SharedFolder (\\HV25\SharedFolder). I've shared this folder with domain admin user.
In ADUC i've created constrain delegation using Kerberos for cifs service on bothe Cluster01 and hv25
I tried to move VM1's storage to the shared folder from HV25.
The error i get is: Migration did not succeed. Failed to copy file c:\ClusterStorage\Volume2\VMs\VM1\vm1.vhdx to \\hv25\vm1\vm1.vhdx: General access devnied error (0x80070005).
In cluster's machine event viewer i get: Storage migration for virtual machine 'VM1' (D13DAEC6-F811-427D-8A06-8F960B3F3B3F) failed with error 'General access denied error' (0x80070005). EventID 20820.
Can anyone help me understand what am I missing, please?
Thank you very much.

Move Virtual Machine Storage stuck "Loading" CSVs

As I understand it the "Move Virtual Machine Storage" screen is supposed to enumerate the CSVs available to the cluster in the bottom left portion of the window. It seems to be stuck on a "Loading..." status and never shows the
CSVs. Also, when I try the "Add Share" button and type in a share to use it doesn't do anything. Thoughts?

Move Virtual Machine from Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 SP1 to Hyper-V Server 2012 fails with Error 2901

I have six Hyper-V 2008 R2 SP1 servers and two Hyper-V 2012 servers. I am running SCVMM 2012 SP1. I am trying to use "move virtual machine" from within SCVMM to move VMs from a 2008 host to a 2012 host. I have tried different VMs on different hosts
and they all fail with this error:
==========
Error (2901)
The operation did not complete successfully because of a parameter or call sequence that is not valid.
The parameter is incorrect (0x80070057)
Recommended Action
Ensure that the parameters are valid, and then try the operation again.
==========
I have successfully created a VM on one of the 2012 hosts and moved it to the other 2012 hosts. I can move VMs from 2008 host to 2008 host. I just cannot move VMs from 2008 host to 2012 host.
Does SCVMM 2012 SP1 not support moving VMs from Hyper-V 2008 to Hyper-V 2012?

Hello Kevin,
Have you got an resolution yet ? Do you have latest update roll up pack applied to SCVMM 2012 SP1?
With SCVMM 2012 SP1 " Running VMs (Live Migartion) and VMs which are in Saved state or having checkpoints can not be migrated from 2008R2 host to 2012 Host "
above was fixed in SCVMM 2012 Update Roll up 1
Apart this please check the approx. size of data (VHDs) which will get transferred over the network , If you have large files chances are more to get such errors.
Thanks

Oracle RAC stop working when i move virtual machine to another computer.

Hi!
I have OGI and one database RAC installed in two virtual machines (VMWare Server 2.02) . They are working fine.
These virtual machines are using a DNS installeld on the host machine to get the SCAN address.
But my problems began when i tried to copy these virtual machines to my personal computer, where i also have VMWare Server 2.0.2 installed.
When i start them the crs doesn´t start fine.
A commnad like crsctl start crs OR crsctl start cluster shows a Ohas comunication issue.
Any idea?

Any idea?Review OS logs, CRS logs to see if you can find any hints. Have you checked to see that all of the host IP addresses and clusterware IP addresses are bound to the virtual NICs properly? I suspect it has something to do with the virtualized networking stack, but it's hard to say without any other information.

Failed to open virtual machine: "C:\Users\C\Documents\Virtual Machines\Windows XP Home Edition\Windows XP Home Edition.vmx" is not a valid virtual machine configuration file. when I try to download the VMWare 7.0 or 7.1 App for non commercial user, help.

I;m a non commercial user of VMware player, mainly using it for illustrator 9.0. A day a go I tried to open the virtual player and got the following message:

I am unable to create new VMs as well.
I have already run
sfc/ scannow
DISM
Already Tried disabling the antivirus
Upon using wbemtest and connecting to root\virtualization, I am able to click Enum Classes > Recursive
Kindly suggest how to get HyperV working please. Any help (short of reinstalling /resetting windows) would be much appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Dr Vivek Gupta

Hi,
The key point would be this:
The Virtual Machine Worker Process has lost its connection to the root\virtualization WMI namespace: General access denied error (0x80070005).
Please open MMC, add Component Services snap-in:
Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer -> DCOM Config -> Windows Management Instrumentation -> Right Click, Properties -> Security “Launch and Activation Permission” -> Edit -> gave Authenticated Users
Full Control
Check the result.

Error: 1238 when creating vm template from a virtual machine

Hi,
I encounter a issue when creating a VM template from a virtual machine whihc is store on hyper host, Can anyone give a suggestion to resolve it.
The virtual machine Windows 2008 R2 20110722 cannot be used in this operation because it is on a perimeter network.
Move virtual machine Windows 2008 R2 20110722 off of the perimeter network or select a virtual machine that is not on a perimeter network, and then try the operation again.
ID: 1238
Many thanks in advance.

vCenter has a different concept of what it means to be a template than SCVMM does.
If you are copying the VHD to the SCVMM Library and building a Template form that, be sure that the OS in the VM is generalized by running sysprep.
Otherwise, your VMs from that template will fail deployment. This is what the SCVMM process of creating a Template from a VM does, it applies sysprep to the VM, then copies it (the VM (VHD + configuration) to the Library, then deletes it.
You can also compose a template using a sysprep prepared VHD that already exists in the Library.
Now, a non-domain joined Hyper-V server is a different thing from a 'perimeter' host. That has to do with how it was added to SCVMM.

Starting Virtual Machine will not start from hibernate mode.

Hi. I had a BSOD and upon rebooting my machine one of my virtual machines is stuck in "hibernate" mode and will not boot up.
I attempted to restore to previous versions of the vmc, but that did not work.
The error i receive is.
"Could not enable integration functions"
Retry or Continue.
Selecting "Continue" states "the operation failed. The virtual machine is not running"
Does anyone have any idea how to get a VPC up and running from this situation?
Thanks, Tim

Azure virtual machine not discovering

We created our back-up vault yesterday. Agents have been installed without any problems. Vault/Virtual machine/storage is all in the same region but it doesn't seem to find any azure virtual machines.
Regards,

Hi PCSKnokke,
Are the VMs in a healthy state? If yes, I can look up in the backend to see what is going on. If you can share some information about the VM (name, region) then I can look this up. If you cannot share this information on a public forum, please direct-message
me on Twitter (@AzureBackup).
Meanwhile, there are issues that we are fixing and perhaps the problem you are facing will get resolved in one of the hotfixes that we will do. Let's investigate anyhow.

Aashish
Added everything to the same subsription and tried it again. Now it seems to work. Could it be that if you use multiple subscriptions (VM on one subscription, backup vault on other subscription) that this doesn't work?

Cannot start virtual machine

Hi,
I was recently restarting a virtual machine due to applying updates and the virtual machine froze. This vm is located on one of our clusters which are running the Hyper-V role. The vm worked just fine until the restart. I was unable to stop the vm at first
so I ended the process via Task Manager. Now I am unable to start the virtual machine.
The following error comes up when I try to start it:
The operation has failed. Failed to start virtual machine 'vmname'.
The details for this error are as follows:
Failed to bring the resource 'vmname" online. Error Code: 0x8007139f. The group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation.
Can you please tell me what I should do. I am thinking of deleting the virtual machine and re-creating it but would that erase the data from the virtual drive as well? Also, if this is a good idea, how would I go about giving the vm the smae IP address?
Our environment only uses DHCP and does not allow static IP assignments.
Is there a way to go about this without having to delete the virtual machine? And without having to restart the entire Hyper-V node on which the vm is located on?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Gil Gross,
I cannot delete the vm because, although the vm is highlighted in blue, there is no delete option (when I get the drop down menu nor on the side menu).
If I use the Failover Cluster Manager to delete the vm will this delete all files associated with it as well (v-disk)?
I am thinking of maybe performing a live migration of all the vm's that are currently on the current cluster node to another cluster node (we have 4 total). Once this is done, I will restart the cluster node with the problematic vm and see if this will help.
What do you think?
Thanks in advance,

Migrating Virtual Machine - Error "Failed to Complete planned Virtual Machine at migration destination" - Server 2012 R2

So to get started I'll give a bit of background on the Infrastructure we are currently working with.
We have:
2 x Hyper-V Hosts (Currently 2 for testing migrations, this will increase once we have a working platform)
2 x File Servers acting as storage nodes for VHD Storage
1 x Physical DC
The Hyper-V Hosts both have Server 2012 R2 Datacentre installed, the rest have Server 2012 R2 Standard installed and configured.
We currently have some VM's sitting on one host and I am in the process of simulations to make sure live migration is working between the two HV Hosts (This is a non-clustered setup), Everything is on the domain and i've been using a domain admin account
to administer these servers for these simulations.
We plan on having VHD's stored on FS01 and FS02, basically our primary host is going to have all primary servers on and then those vhd's will be stored on FS01 and then all secondary/redundant servers are going to be on the second host and vhd's stored on
FS02 - Simple enough?
I can perform Data migrations between both FS01 and FS02 using the Hyper-V Management tool on both hosts without any issues. The issue I am currently encountering is when I perform a migration of the "Virtual Machine Only". Now, this simulation
works when the data for the VM is stored on either of the hosts using UNC pathway, no hiccups at all, I receive the below error when ever the data is stored on either FS01 or FS02 using again, UNC pathway (These VM's power on and work perfectly otherwise while
hosted on FS01/02).
Error:
I've researched this quite a lot and have gone through countless solutions other people are having.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/5780d041-4036-404e-9f33-8abe025bfe2b/hyperv-failed-to-create-external-configuration-store-general-access-denied-error-ox80070005?forum=winserverhyperv (Which
took me to the below link)
http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2249906 (This solution didn't work, in fact i couldn't even get CMD to run the command)
Now, with
THIS SOLUTION that I attempted I worked with adding all the hosts and FS01 (because nothing is on FS02 at the moment) in an attempt to get the VM Migration only working between hosts and still receive the same error.
As a testing option, I Moved the Data for the VM back to one of the hosts using UNC pathway and then performed a live migration to the other host no problems, then performed a data migration back to FS01 and that also worked. I don't particularly want to
do this with production VM's as I have at least 6 x 780GB vhd's that need to be moved and this would move them more than once, obviously not ideal.
If someone is able to help me out, or at least point me in the right direction, that would be awesome!

I did try adding the 'Everyone' permission for the testing of migration to see if it was a permission issue which didn't help at all before I'd posted this article.
This ended up being a Computer Delegation issue, I'd neglected to add the 'cifs' (SMB Protocol) on ALL servers for ALL servers in the cluster, I didn't add that permission in my FS01 or FS02 servers for each other or the hyper-v servers that were in operation.
I've now started our production Hyper-V Servers and they haven't skipped a beat since adding in those delegations correctly to all servers as a "Full mesh" type setup.
Thanks for responding in any case :)
This is the permission I am referring to if anyone else has the issue:
AD>Computers>{Name of Computer}
I also performed an active directory replication forcefully with:
repadmin /replicate <Target> <Source> dc=Domain,dc=local
Run as a powershell command.

'SERVERNAME' failed to perform the operation. The virtual machine is not in a valid state to perform the operation. (Virtual machine ID "GUID")

DPM 2012 R2
Server 2012 R2 and Server 2012 (R1). Both CSV volumes and Hyper-V hosts with non clustered volumes.
ISCSI Attached Storage. (Nimble SAN)
Every time a VM backup is made this error message occurs:
"'SERVERNAME' failed to perform the operation. The virtual machine is not in a valid state to perform the operation. (Virtual machine ID "GUID")"
The backup seems to finish fine most of the time, but it also seems to be causing some VM's to be in a hung/frozen state when this happens.

Hi Nordland,
So it seems that there are some non-backup operation that is trying to occur on the Virtual machine while the backup is in progress. Does this VM have replication enabled on it. Is there a Hyper-V replica server to which this machine get's replicated?
Regards,
Siddharth Jha

Constantly "Cluster resource 'Virtual Machine' in clustered service or application 'SERVER' failed

Hi...
I have an IBM BladeCenter S with 3 blades and an IBM System Storage DS3300 (ISCSI).
In each blade is running Windows Server 2008 R2 with
HYPER-V,
Failover Clustering with Cluster Shared Volumes.
I have observed that many errors occur constantly in "Failover Cluster Manager" and some VM´s are relocated to another blade automatically, however thoses VM´s sometimes no longer responds to network activity.
The errors I have observed in the "Failover Cluster Manager" are:
Source: Microsoft-Windows-FailoverClusting
Event ID: 1069
Description:

[Forum FAQ] Resolve virtual machines fail to start issues

After you restart the Hyper-V Host server and the guest virtual machines, you may encounter the error:
An error occurred while attempting to start the selected virtual machines(s).
Here are three common issues.
Issue 1
On a Windows Server 2008-based machine that has the Hyper-V role installed,
or on a Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008-based machine, you encounter the following:
• When you try to connect to a virtual machine, error occurs:
Cannot connect to the virtual machine because the authentication certificate is expired or invalid. Would you like to try connecting again,
• When you start a virtual machine, error occurs (Figure 1):
An error occurred while attempting to change the state of virtual machine
‘VMname’
'VMName' failed to initialize.
Could not initialize machine remoting system. Error: ‘Unspecified error’ (0x80004005).
Could not find a usable certificate. Error:
‘Unspecified error’(0x80004005).
Figure 1: ‘Unspecified error’ (0x80004005).
Cause:
This issue may occur if the Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management service (VMMS) certificate has expired.
Solution:
Install the Hotfix.
You cannot connect to a virtual machine when the Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V VMMS certificate has expired
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/kb967902/en-us
Workaround:
Follow the steps below to generate a new certificate.
1. Shut down or save all virtual machines.
2. Restart the Hyper-V VMMS.
3. Start the virtual machines.
Note:As the Hyper-V VMMS certificate is valid for one year, the update has to be applied to prevent this issue from occurring in the future.

Issue
2
If there is no enough system resource, this error may occur (Figure 2) and you will receive Event ID 3040.
Figure 2: No enough system resource
Product:
Windows Operating System
ID:
3040
Source:
Microsoft-Windows-Hyper-V-Worker
Version:
6.0
Symbolic Name:
MSVML_WP_INITILIZATION_ERROR
Message:
'%1' failed to initialize. (Virtual machine %2)
Troubleshooting:
You need to check the following:
1. Permissions of the configuration files, memory files and all VHD files.
2. Prior messages in the event log.
3. Available RAM on the system.
4. Free disk space for the storages of the memory files and expanding virtual hard disks.
In addition, if you are using the VMMS, please restart the VMMS service.
CMD:
net stop nvpswmi
net start nvspwmi
PowerShell:
C:\PS>restart-service vmms
