Hyper-V 2012 removing replication on virtual machine

Hi all
If you remove replication from a virtual machine how long does this take to update the replication partner? Is there a best practice for removing?
I have a three node and two node cluster running on Windows 2012. I removed replication from a VM and the partner still shows replication enabled.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Craig,
Based on my understanding , if we need to remove the replica we may need to remove replica on primary and replica hyper-v host / site .

Hyper-V failed to enable replication for virtual machine 'Machinename': Incorrect funciton. (0x8007001)

When enabling replication on several VM's, I receive Hyper-V failed to enable replication for virtual machine "virtualmachinename": Incorrect funciton. (0x8007001). However this error doesn't happen to all VM's and it isn't related to any
particular host.
I've traced this down to a VSS error, however when running ">vssadmin list providers", I receive the following indicating there are no errors:

Windows Pro 8.1 Hyper-V enabled - cannot connect to Virtual Machines

I'm running Windows Pro 8.1. Virtualization is enabled in BIOS. Account is in Admin, Hyper-V, RDP groups. I open Hyper-V manager. Create a new Virtual Switch (internal) and name it. Then create a new virtual machine - name it, place it in a folder under
C:, Specify Generation (tried both 1 and 2), startup memory 512mb not dynamic, Lan- select the virtual switch created earlier, create an vhdx hard disk, and install the O.S. from an ISO on C. Creates the new VM under Virtual Machines.
I select the new VM, click connect, then start. A window opens with the new VM on server and says it's connecting to it and it's status is Running. In the Hyper-V manager in the New Virtual Machine pane (bottom pane) it shows a image that
appears to have a login screen. The VM window that displays the "Connection to" eventually throws an error : Virtual machine connection: Cannot connect to the virtual machine, Try to connect again. contact your admin, Try again etc. selecting connect
eventually errors out with check integration services etc. I've read the logs, there are no errors. When I try to shut down or turn off the vm it doesn't respond. I've configured this before on different boxes. It's the work environment for the MCSA 70-462
training kit Preparation. any direction would be greatly appreciated.

That is correct. This has been well documented.
The WMI namespace changed. 2008 and 2008 R2 now of the v1 virtualization namespace. 2012 knows of both v1 and v2. And 2012 R2 only knows the v2 virtualization namespace.
That said, there is more to this.
2008 management console only knows 2008 features. So if you connect it to a 2012 server to manage the 2012 server, you cannot manage any of the features released with 2008 R2 nor 2012.
So, take this second point, mix it with the first point and I recommend that your management server / client release matches the release of the Server you are managing.

Is it possible to install SharePoint 2013 and SQL 2012 on single Azure Virtual Machine

I had a Azure subscription, I need had created only one Virtual Machine, is it possible to install SharePoint 2013 and SQL Server 2012 on that single virtual machine in azure.
I had SharePoint 2013 and SQL Server 2012 licence from MSDN subscription,
Finally on Azure virtual machine is it possible to Install SharePoint 2013 and SQL server by downloading these software from MSDN.

Hi,
It is supported to install sharepoint 2013 and SQL server on the same server. However, please check the size of your Azure VM and make sure it is compatible for that.
The minimum recommended size for a virtual machine is A3 when using SQL Server Enterprise Edition. Select A3 or higher when using SQL Server Enterprise Edition. Select A4 when using SQL Server 2012 or 2014 Enterprise Optimized for Transactional Workloads
images. Select A7 when using SQL Server 2012 or 2014 Enterprise Optimized for Data Warehousing Workloads images. In addition, the default size for SharePoint 2013 image is A3.
In addition, as a best practice, you can install them in different servers and then deploy SharePoint 2013 with SQL Server AlwaysOn Availability Groups in Azure:

Finding and removing unused replica virtual machines in the VMware Horizon

Hello All,
I found this tutorial : http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2009844#determining
and I was trying this command : SviConfig.exe -operation=FindUnusedReplica -DsnName=ComposerDB -Username=sa -Password=secret -Move=true
but I dont know right password of DSN, how can I get ? or is it another tutorial how to remove unused replica virtual machine ?

Hi,
So what you are trying to do is drill into the Composer Database and find un-used replicas? Do you not know the DSN credentials when you set up the ODBC connection? Was it not documented?
If not, then I do not know if there is a way to crowbar that password information out. Do you have access to the SQL database via Management studio? There are possibly a few options:
1) You could create a NEW user who has permissions on the composer DB and create a NEW ODBC DSN and use this user and password to access the database from the same server using the sviconfig. You are just providing another way of access the same database really without interupting the existing composer connection.
2) You could try resetting the password on the account (and update the ODBC connection on the composer server) - I'd stop the composer service first and then edit ODBC and then resume composer and check everything works!
3) Try and find the information of your account (who set it up?) as this would be the best way moving forward.
My preferred options would be to try 3, 1 and finally 2. I'd always recommend testing things like this in a development environment first so you can really understand the impact/consequence to what you are doing.
Happy to help!

Hyper-V - 'Failed to start the virtual machine 'test' because one of the Hyper-V components is not running.'

Hi all,
Having a bit of a nightmare with Hyper-V on my Windows 8 Pro laptop - Whenever I create a new VM and try to start it I receive the following error;
'Failed to start the virtual machine 'test' because one of the Hyper-V components is not running.'
I sometimes also receive an error saying something along the lines of 'Unable to change virtual machine state'
I have done a lot of searching a seen two common answers - The first is to try removing the Hyper-V role and re-adding it - I have tried this several times to no avail. (Intel VT and all virtualisation capabilities are enabled in BIOS). The second issue
it would seem
some people have had relates to editing the VMX configuration file and adding the line
hypervisor.cpuid.v0 = "FALSE" - I thought VMX files were only present in VMware Virtual Machines...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
James

The hypervisor event log message is generated only at boot - so this would be expected. Also vmbus should not be running on the host (I was looking at a VM yesterday)... This error message is generated only when the vid is determined not to be
running or cannot communicate with the hypervisor.
I have seen this due to anti-virus software in the past or due to driver verifier being configured. Since it looks like you checked driver verifier already do you have anti-virus software installed? If so have you followed the best practices
and exempted the Hyper-v services?
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd283088(WS.10).aspx
To resolve this problem, configure the real-time scanning component within your antivirus software to exclude the following directories and files:
Default virtual machine configuration directory (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Hyper-V)
Custom virtual machine configuration directories
Default virtual hard disk drive directory (C:\Users\Public\Documents\Hyper-V\Virtual Hard Disks)
Custom virtual hard disk drive directories
Custom replication data directories, if you are using Hyper-V Replica
Snapshot directories
Vmms.exe (Note: This file may have to be configured as a process exclusion within the antivirus software.)
Vmwp.exe (Note: This file may have to be configured as a process exclusion within the antivirus software.)

AVHD files not being deleted by Hyper-V when DPM backs up virtual machines

Hi,
I understand DPM uses checkpoints to backup Hyper-V virtual machines.
We have seen a few instances whereby the AVHD files that are created at the time DPM backs up the VM are not being deleted on the CSV disk.
There are no checkpoints associated with the virtual machine in Hyper-V settings.
We did delete one of these AVHD files on a non-production system and it was successful, the AVHD files are not being used by the virtual machine.
Is it safe to delete these AVHD files? Anyone experienced anything similar?
Microsoft Partner

Hi
Could you please let su know if you have acrried out any ILR operations?
When you recover a VHD of a virtual machine that has Hyper-V snapshots, .avhd files are not displayed in the
Recoverable Items pane, but DPM recovers the parent VHD and all the associated .avhd files.
Just want to confirm that these avhd files are not coresponding to recovery process.

Hyper-V 2012 VM replication as SCOM/SQL DR solution

Hi all,
Anyone out there using Hyper-V VM replicas of SCOM and SQL servers as a DR solution for SCOM?
Is it supported?
We are running Hyper-V 2012 R2, SCOM 2012 SP1, and SQL 2012. We created Hyper-V replicas of SCOM and SQL server on a different Hyper-V host. Turned off the primary SQL and SCOM VMs to simulate a disaster and performed a fail-over in Hyper-V. After a few
manual steps the SCOM server seemed to work fine.
I could go into more details, but overall is it a supported solution? Looks too simple and good to be true :-).
Our RPO, RTOs are quite flexible for SCOM.
Thanks.

Hi,
Although there is no official document, but from my point of view, hyper-v replica is one way to keep data in two places, this way to have a data backup.
And the most official way is to do database back up, and here is the article about how to do DR for SCOM:
Disaster Recovery in System Center 2012 - Operations Manager
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh531578.aspx
As far as I know, hyper-v replica is used to prevent hardware damage causing loosing data.

Hyper-V Inventory tool/script for Virtual Machines

Hi Forum
I am looking for a Tool/script that can give me the following information
VMhost, VMname, MaxDynamicMemory, MaxStaticMemroy, CPUcount, All disk and their max size.
So if you are familiar with a script or a Tool, i would be great.
Environment is: SSVMM2008r2 + Windows Server 2008 R2
Thanx
Mr. T

try this https://reporting.codeplex.com/ if you have standalone 2012 this will work great. if you are using 2008r2 you will need to import the powershell moduels from http://pshyperv.codeplex.com/ and then you can use the reporting one as template
of what you are trying to do, but the commands will be different. If you are running system center 2008 then the powershell commands are found here. http://blogs.technet.com/b/jonjor/archive/2010/10/05/scvmm-powershell-commands-cheat-sheet.aspx
again you can use reporting as a template but the commands will be different.
The only thing consistent in powershell is the inconsistancy. All of the above versions work pretty much the same and may even have the same commands, or even an alias that points to the a command.
prime example get-vm same in all the versions but if you are running system center it is get-scvm that points to get-vm or it may even have more options than plain get-vm.
Sorry to confuse you but you just have to dive in with both feet and sink or swim with powershell.

VM Protection running on Hyper-V 2012 R2 with DPM 2010

Hi everyone,
We recently setup a new Hyper-V 2012 R2 server hosting virtual machine running with a Win2012 R2 server OS and 2008R2 standard Edition
Our backup solution is still running DPM 2010.
As I understand from the DPM Protection Support Matrix, You can only protect virtual machine running on a hyper-v server under Windows 2012 R2 OS with DPM 2012 R2. Isn't there possible any walkaround to have the vm protection working on dpm2010?
Otherwise, if we choose to protect the VM at guest level instead of host-level, is DPM able to perform the recovery point?
For instance, we've got a VM running a SQL database. We would like specifically to back up that SQL database running on that virtual machine.Is DPM able to perfom that job?
Regards,
Evan

Hi,
To remain in a supported configuration you need to a DPM 2012 R2 server to protect the Windows 2012 R2 hyper-v server. Unfortunately, the path to get there from DPM 2012 is not an easy one.
Upgrade steps.
Note: the Operating system and SQL requirements for DPM 2012
System Requirements for DPM in System Center 2012
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh757757.aspx
1) On DPM 2010 install the latest update: KB2751231 Description of hotfix rollup package 7 for System Center Data Protection Manager 2010
2) Update the Agents to 3.0.8195.0
3) Backup the DPM 2010 database.
4) Upgrade to DPM 2012 and update agents.
5) Install the latest DPM 2012 update and Update agents.
6) Backup the DPM 2012 database.
7) Upgrade to DPM 2012 Sp1 and update agents.

Installing Hyper-V Powershell Module on Virtual Machine

I have a situation where I am running Hyper-V 2012 and have several virtual RemoteApp RDS servers (server 2012 R2) with a user profile disk server (also 2012R2 virtual machine) that stores all of the VHDX user profile disks. I want to perform some maintenance
on the VHDX files by running optimize-vhd to compact the disks to keep them from being larger than they need to be. Anyhow, that PowerShell commandlet won't run unless the Hyper-V module is installed but in order to install it, the Hyper-V role must be installed.
Since it's a virtual machine, it's not supported to install the Hyper-V role (although I hear it may be possible) so I was wondering if it is possible to install only the Hyper-V PowerShell modules. I would just use a Hyper-V server to run it but the commandlet
does not seem to allow UNC/Share paths. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance for your time!

Hi Scott,
I tested on my hyper-v enviroment, and installed the feature "Hyper-v Module for Windows Powershell" on VM, and I could run the cmdlet "optimize-vhd", however, It couldn't run successfully without Hyper-v Role installed:
In addition, if you just want to compact the vhd file on vm, how about using the command "DiskPart":
You can then complete the compacting using diskpart from a Command Prompt:
Run diskpart
Select the disk via its path: select vdisk file="<path>"
Attach it as read-only: attach vdisk readonly
Compact it: compact vdisk
Upon completion of the compact, detach it again: detach vdisk
You can then re-attach it via Disk Management in its normal and newly compacted state
Refer to:
https://fiddley.wordpress.com/2014/01/27/dynamically-expanding-vhd-not-compacting-in-hyper-v/
If there is anything else regarding this issue, please feel free to post back.

Windows 10 Technical Preview - There is NO "Hyper-v Virtual Machine Management" service???

hi all,
There's no such Windows Topic as "WTP Virtualization", so I post this thread here, a somewhat "VIRTULIZATION" related.
I installed WTP (not server) x64 enterprise 9879, and added "Hyper-v Management" feature (management only, without Hyper-v core) in Control Panel. Then I found that there was no "Hyper-v
Virtual Machine Management" in Services panel, and there was no such file "c:\windows\system32\vmms.exe". Therefore I cannot connect to Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-v through WTP Hyper-v Manager.
I confirm the reason is what I state above. Firewall rules are properly configured on both Hyper-v server and WTP. I also used hvxxxx.wsf to configre anondcom to be "allow". When
I connect WS 2012 R2 through WTP, Hyper-v manager on WTP says "Please confirm VMMS server is running".
Is it a bug, or lack of implementation, or restriction of preview edition?
Any suggestion is appreciated! Thanks!

Okay, I turned off hyper-v, went to bios and enabled Intel TXT(LT-SX) Configuration. Made sure that both Virtualization and VT for Direct I/0 are on. Next, I turned on Hyper-V and I create a brand new Virtual Machine call Windows8 and had
the DVD point to Windows8 ISO file on hard drive. When I clicked on start, it stayed in the Starting status mode for about 5 minutes. Then of course it failed. I looked at the Hyper-V-VMMS log and here is what it output:

I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. I have the Hyper-V role installed with to virtual machines. I rebooted yesterday after windows updates loaded and now one of my virtual machine have disappeared. I have run through hours of technet
forums trying to find the answer and have come up empty.
I checked ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows|Hyper-V\Virtual Machines and the symbolic link is gone. I tried to recreat it using the mklink command, but every time I recreate the symbolic link to the .xml it comes back as a link to a file folder.
I checked the acl on the virtual machine .xml on my D: drive and the GUID SID is missing. I also tried to add it back via the iacls command but it doesn't seem to exist.
After all that, I decided to recreate the entire virtual machine, but now I can't create virtual machines. I get teh following error:
"Failed to create external configuration store at 'folder path': A required privilege is not held by the client. (Virtual machine ID 0x80070522)"
After that error I opend azman.msc and verified that the initalstore.xml has the administrators group in it.
I do not know what else I can do from here. Any help would be appreciated.

Windows 8 Hyper-V - Virtual Machine Management Service failed to start the virtual machine

I have Hyper-v running on Dell Precision T3600 with Windows 8 OS. I am trying to start a VM (called Windows8VM) to install Windows 8 in the hyper-v virtual machine, but I keep getting the following message:
"Windows8VM" failed to start.
Failed to start the virtual machine "Windows8VM" because one of the Hyper-V components is not running.
"Windows8VM" failed to start. (Virtual machine ID D670D3BB-9AE2-0453D-9191-EA6EFC242A9C)
The Virtual Machine Management Services failed to start the virtual machine "Windows8VM" because one of the Hyper-V components is not running.
I have turned the hyper-v feature on in the "Turn Windows feature on or off. The BIOS has virtualization enable. Help!!! driving me nuts for a week now.
Nick :(

Okay, I turned off hyper-v, went to bios and enabled Intel TXT(LT-SX) Configuration. Made sure that both Virtualization and VT for Direct I/0 are on. Next, I turned on Hyper-V and I create a brand new Virtual Machine call Windows8 and had
the DVD point to Windows8 ISO file on hard drive. When I clicked on start, it stayed in the Starting status mode for about 5 minutes. Then of course it failed. I looked at the Hyper-V-VMMS log and here is what it output:
