How to Change Hyper-V Host Physical NIC

I plan to replace a physical NIC on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-v host. What are the steps that I need to do. Thank you.

Delete the virtual switch for it and remove the NIC.
Install the new NIC and create a new virtual switch for it and assign it to the VMs that need it.
Also, a much better place to ask hyper-v questions is in the hyper-v forum:

  • Changing Hyper-V host and cluster virtual IP addresses to new subnet/VLAN

    I have a 2 node Hyper-V 2012 R2 failover cluster, managed by System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2012 R2, and I would like to change the IP addresses of the hosts and the cluster, in order to move them to a new subnet and VLAN. The existing and new subnets
    are able to route to each other so all hosts will still be able to communicate throughout the parts of the process where they may be on separate subnets. There is also a dedicated cluster heartbeat network on its own subnet and VLAN that I am not altering
    in any way.
    The 2 hosts are configured with 4 nics in a team, with dedicated virtual interfaces for each of the following:
    -Live Migration
    -Cluster Heartbeating
    -Host management/general traffic (the cluster virtual IP address is also on the same subnet as these interfaces).
    It is the host management/general traffic addresses that I want to change. The interfaces were created and configured with the Add-VMNetworkAdapter, New-NetIPAddres and Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan commands.
    Please advise if the following process is correct:
    1) Evacuate all the VMs from the first host to be changed and put it in maintenance mode.
    2) Use Set-VMNetworkAdapter to change the name of the interface (the current name refers to the VLAN it's on)
    3) Use Set-NetIPAddress to change the IP address and gateway of the interface as appropriate
    4) Use Set-VMNetworkAdapterVlan to set the VLAN ID
    5) Take the host out of maintenance mode and move all VMs off the other host
    6) Repeat above steps on the other host
    I know that I will then need to change the cluster virtual IP address, but I have no idea how to do this or where to look for that setting. Please advise!
    Cheers.

  • Hyper-V host 1Gbps NIC negotiated at 100 Mbps when used for Virtual Switch

    Hi all,
    Hoping someone can shed some light on this one as I’ve been trying to hunt down a solution for a week now.
    Setup
    HP ProLiant ML350 G6 with HP NC326i PCIe Dual Port Gigabit Server Adapter network adapters
    Windows Server 2008 R2 Core with only the Hyper-V role installed
    SBS 2011 installed as guest
    Port 1 on Dual port NIC configured a physical port or management of Host only
    Port 2 on Dual port NIC configured for use as an External Virtual Switch port for use by guests only
    The issue is that the physical port connected to the Hyper-V virtual Switch negotiates with the network switch at 100 Mbps full duplex while the management port negotiates at 1 Gbps full duplex. All clients (brand new HP Z210 workstations) also negotiate
    with the switch at 1 Gbps.
    During file copies and backups the network port connected to the Virtual Switch does not show any errors and transfers data at close to 100 Mbps. File transfers between individual workstations and workstations and server core again show no errors, but transfers
    at 1 Gbps.
    One observation is that the physical NIC connected to the Virtual Switch does not negotiate with the switch until the Hyper-V service has started (I’m guessing) the virtual switch.
    Also, while staging the server the Hyper-V virtual switch created when the server was connected to a 100 Mbps switch not a 1Gbps switch as it is in production.
    Has anyone encountered anything similar and if so how did you get the physical NIC to operate at full capabilities? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I purchased one gigabyte switch for home used several days ago, I just performed some copy tests between virtual machines and physical machines(not
    Hyper-V host machine)in the same LAN, the average copy speed is 350Mb/s.

  • How to backup Hyper-V host server on DPM 2012 R2

    Hi,
    I'm about to backup my first Hyper-V host server using DPM 2012.  I'm looking for a strategy to back up both the host server and virtual machines.  Note:  I'm not really interested in backing up all the virtual machines.  Many are non-production
    or for testing.  How do you do it?  I was thinking about selecting in the protection group:
    - BMR and SS for the Hyper-V host
    - The C: volume of the Hyper-V host
    - Select the Child partition snapshots of the virtual machines I want to backup.
    In my environment, Hyper-V role is installed on the C: drive, but the virtual machines are stored on E:, which I would not backup directly (volumes) since I'm backing up the VMs using Child partition snapshot.
    Would I be able to restore my Hyper-V host and the selected VMs with a backup like this?
    Anyone want to share how they setup their protection groups for Hyper-V?
    Thanks.

    No, use full server backup (image) if VM config are stored at default storage (disk  C).
    Understanding where your virtual machine files are [Hyper-V]
    Using this method to perform a full server backup is the recommended method because it captures more data than the other method.

  • How to change the full host and domain name on OS X Leopard...

    I recently bought an iMac, and I'm trying to configure it for my network. The question I have is, how can I change the host name and domain name from Skuld.local to skuld.tolharadys.net?
    After mucking around with a few searches on Google, I've gotten the domain name to stick since running domainname returns tolharadys.net. Also I can change the hostname as reported by 'hostname' temporarily by running 'hostname skuld.tolharadys.net' in Terminal.app. However, this isn't persistent after reboots. Ideas are welcome.

    You would need a DNS server on your network configured to answer authoritatively for that particular subdomain.

  • How to change COMPATIBLE with a physical standby database?

    Hello.
    The obvious answer is do it on both the primary and the standby at the same time... since the reference manual says : "When using a standby database, this parameter must have the same value on both the primary and standby databases.".
    However, I was wondering, I have a 10.2.0.3 DB with compatible=9.2.0.5. What will happen if I leave the parameter to 9.2.0.5 on the standby and just make the change to 10.2.0.3 on the primary? Would I be able to continue to apply the logs on the physical standby? Would I be able to open it ? (I understand that the transport won't probably work anymore and that I won't be able to switchover)
    I guess those 2 questions are stupid but I haven't found any clear statement yet.
    Please stay tolerant. Thank you.
    Gregory
    PS: I know what are the alternatives.

    So the answer is obviously: We cannot do that. That completely makes sense btw. I tried with 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.4 and I got:
    RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
    RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
    RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
    RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 10/22/2008 18:35:55

    ORA-00334: archived log: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/WHITE/redo02.log'
    I should have think about it before I asked. That would have meant we could revert the database from 10g to 9i any time... And the bootstrap changes are not stored in the redo log...

  • How to change IP address of a NIC

    I am trying to change the IP address programmatically. I am llooking for information to use ioctl() or some system call to do this. Any help or pointers to sample code appreciated.
    I am trying to something equivivalent to this:
    ifconfig hme0:200 10.1.2.110 netmask 255.255.255.0 down broadcast 10.1.2.255
    Thanks
    Bala

    There's no API for that. And usually your IP address is assigned by your network administrator or by some server in your network that knows what it's doing.

  • DHCP via Hyper-V VM, Server2012r2 Hyper-V host, clients not getting IP address

    You have to authorize a dhcp server as Britv8 says. That's the only way it'll start dishing out leases. That's standard for Windows DHCP server in an AD Domain.
    Also there's 0 reason to mention Hyper-V here. The whole point of virtualization is to do hardware level abstraction.

    I recently encountered this. Setup:
    Initial setup of the system was at a different location from its final destination, with different network equipment (switches) between the two. No teaming is involved, however.
    Set up the system at its final destination, with DHCP via a Hyper-V VM (Server2012r2), Server2012r2 Hyper-V host, physical clients on the lan were not getting IP address.
    The physical server box has a 4-port Intel Gigabit ethernet card.
    I moved the setup (Hyper-V Virtual Switch manager) so that the interface for the DHCP server VM was isntead using one of two built-in Broadcom adapters.
    While this topic seemed promising,

  • How to get notified when changes happen on Hyper-V host or VMs

    Is there a way to get notified on Hyper-V host or VM changes? Our intention is to notify the system-administrators on any changes.
    1. How to get notified when new VM is created (or deleted) on Hyper-V.
    2. How to get notified when any memory/CPU/disk is added (or deleted) on any VM(s).
    In general: 
    - Get notified when any changes happens to Hyper-V host.
    - Get notified when any changes happens on any VMs.
    Our target servers are Windows Server(2008, 2008 R2, 2012, and 2012 R2)
    We tried to get the notification using "Event Viewer" on different Windows servers (2008, 2008 R2, 2012, and 2012 R2)
    We were able to get event-logs only on one of our 2012 R2 server as described below on creation/deletion of VMs (on another 2012 R2 server, we did not got any such event, Is there any setting required on host computer to get Hyper-V event-logs in "Event
    Viewer"?)

    Thanks for your reply,
    Just to make it more clear:
    In our environment we have enabled Hyper-V on following Windows servers: 2012 R2, 2012, 2008 R2, 2008. The environment is very dynamic, VMs are getting created and deleted very frequently. Our intention is to get notified by any means on VM creation/deletion,
    currently we are relying on event-logs (we are OK with any different mechanism for such notification if there exists, i,e other than event-logs)
    We were able to get event-logs only on few of our 2012 R2 server on creation/deletion of VMs. On another 2012 R2 server, we did not got any such event (do we need to make some settings on 2012 R2 to get events? If yes, what are those settings).
    Also we are not getting any such event of VM creation/deletion on our Windows Server 2012, 2008, 2008 R2. Is there any setting required on hese host computer to get Hyper-V event-logs in "Event Viewer" for VM creation/deletion?

  • How do I get RDP Access to Hyper-V host when DC and DHCP server is down and is a VM on that host.

    My host machine is a Windows Server 2012 running SBS 2008 as a VM.
    How can I configure a Hyper-V environment to allow me to RDP into the Hyper-V host in order to start individual VM's.
    It seems that without the DC running (which happens to be a VM on the same host) the host does not have an IP address that I can RDP to. I also cannot assign it a static IP.
    With the VM DC running I can RDP into that and then RDP from that to the Hyper-V host but I would like to be able to have the ability to access all VM's and be able to start and stop them as required, remotely.

    The SBS 2008 server has a static IP and the NIC on the Hyper-V host is used by the Virtual Switch so a static IP cannot be assigned to the NIC on the Hyper-V host.
    If you only have one physical adapter in your Hyper-V host and it's hosting the virtual switch, then you'll need to create a virtual adapter on it for the host to use.
    You can check the "Allow management operating system to share this network adapter" in the "Virtual Switch Manager" inside "Hyper-V Manager". You'll automatically get a network adapter that shows up with the others on that system where you can give it IP
    and DNS information.
    You can also do it in PowerShell:
    Add-VMNetworkAdapter -ManagementOS -SwitchName ((Get-VMSwitch).Name) -Name Mgmt
    New-NetIpAddress -IPAddress ###.###.###.### -InterfaceAlias "vEthernet (Mgmt)" -DefaultGateway ###.###.###.### -PrefixLength ##
    Set-DnsClientServerAddress -InterfaceAlias "vEthernet (Mgmt)" -ServerAddresses ###.###.###.###, ###.###.###.###
    Then you'll have an IP you can connect to from remote systems.

    how do we convert a physical sever to hyper-v virtual machine ?
    what factors should we take into consideration?
    which tools should we use to accomplish this task ? could you please provide any document or links for the same.
    Thanks.

    Is SCVMM 2012 SP1 a free tool or do we need buy the license ?
    NO, it;s not free.
    Where do we need to install the SCVMM ?
    You can install to VM.
    can we install it on any computer on the network or  it should be on any of the specific machine ?

  • How to get information about creation of a virtual machine on a Hyper-v host.

    Hi,
    How to get information about creation of a virtual machine on a Hyper-v host?
    I need: host name, time created, creator user.
    I saw in Hyper-V-VMMS but I found info about movements of VM between hosts.
    Thank's in advance.
    Denius Valiant

    For Host Name * Created Time Use This Command In PowerShell 
    Get-VM -Name (Read-Host "Type Your Vm Name") |select CreationTime , ComputerName
    and for Create User , As i know you should see on Event Log . 
    Go To Event Log Viewer--->Applications And Services Logs--->Microsoft--->Windows--->Hyper-V-VMMS--->Operational 
    You can see in Event Log who create the Vm.

  • How to get low performances alert for Hyper-v Host ON scom

    Hello Expert,
    We have to implement a scenario VM Live migration which involved (SCOM,SCVMM,SCORCH Parts).
    where SCOM parts  will monitor the performances of SCVMM 's Hyper-V hosts and VMs running the within the Hyper-v hosts.
    when the VMs utilization exceed the threshold and then scom monitor checks the performances of Running Hyper-v Hosts ,then using SCORCH automation ,VMs are moved to one of the best performances the Hyper-v hosts.
    To implement this ,I have integrated SCOM 2012 R2 AND SCVMM 2012 R2 AND enabled the PRO Tips.
    but don't know how to get alerts and configured related to performances of VMs and Hyper-v host.
    What will be next  needed to achieved this from SCOM PARTS.
