Hyper V Virtual Machine Creation

While we try creating a new virtual machine for our windows phone application, we are facing the following error.
-Failed to add device 'Virtual Hard disk
-Hyper V virtual machine management service account does not have permission to open attachment.
ERROR: General access denied error(0x80070005)

Unblock whatever it is that you downloaded.
Check that your antivirus software is set with the proper exclusions.
I don't recall anyone reporting this error before - as the installer for the phone emulator generally takes care of the machine creation and permissions.
I can only guess that you are attempting to duplicate the phone emulator VM. If so, use Export and Import.

Hyper-v Virtual machine creation as part of MDT task sequence

Hello,
I have an existing MDT 2013 environment where I deploy Server 2008 R2 core with Hyper V role to HP Microservers.
The next step is to use hyper v manager and remotely configure the network and build VMs.
I would like to try and bring this together, and am sure I have seen similar powershell scripts online, but have not been able to find them despite an afternoon/evening of searching.
Ideally what I would like to happen is run a powershell script as part of MDT task to do the following.
1) create switch on hyper v host
2) build two VMs with fixed hard discs
3) VMs to automatically start and either PXE boot, which will connect to my existing automated MDT environment, or load the MDT iso image to initiate OS install.
Is anyone aware of existing scripts which can do this?
Or have any links which could help me achieve this?
Please note i am only using server 2008 r2 OS at present.
Many Thanks

Basically this has a little to nothing to do with MDT.
It's more about having the powershell scripts to do it, here's a good start:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2013/10/16/powertip-create-a-virtual-switch-in-hyper-v-with-windows-powershell.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/jj933287.aspx
Once you have the script's tested and working, you can try to incorporate them into your MDT task sequence. Just add an "Run PowerShell Script" and refer to the script as: %DeployRoot%\Applications\Name Of Script\createVM.ps1 or something like that.
Good luck!

Create Hyper-V Virtual Machines with Windows PowerShell searching on hostname

Dear,
I’m a starter with PowerShell scripting an I’m looking for a script to create Hyper-V Virtual Machines with Windows PowerShell. The idea behind the script is that when I run the script its first searching for the hostname. I’m migrating 24 locations and each
location have a different hostname like xxx-SRV001. The script needs to use the first 3 signs from the hostname in this case “xxx” and create 2 VM's with below info:
Virtual Machine 1 2048MB
Virtual Machine 2 4096MB
Location D:\VM\
I can create VM's with Powershell into Hyper-V so only a script to first searching for the first 3 characters of the hostname is enough.
Example:
It's the intention that when the script runs it's looking for the hostname. As example we have hostname 000-SRV001
If the script see the first 3 characters of the hostname, in this case 000 he need to create 2 VMs with name xxx-SRV002 and xxx-SRV004
I think it must be something with
$hostname = "Get-WmiObject -computername $Machine Win32_Computersystem"
But then when i'm asking for $hostname he must give me back the hostname and if the hostname is 1 of the 24 locations then he need to create 2 vm's in Hyper-V with above info.
Can you help me or do you have a script for this?

Juste use :
$vram = 1GB*$vRam
You not need the "
Do you have any error with the creation of the VM?

Error Creating VM on 2011 iMac - The Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management service encountered an unexpected error: The remote procedure call failed. (0x800706BE).

I am running Hyper-V in Windows 8.1 on a late 2011 27 inch iMac. Whenever I try to create a virtual machine I get the error below and Windows warns that it will restart in 1 minute. I tried a clean install of Windows, but my PC still crashes ever
time I try to create a VM. I was able to successfully use Hyper-V in prior versions of Windows on this same PC. Any clue as to what is going on? A driver? Windows 8.1? Mac Hardware related?

Hi CharlesPool,
I am assuming that the win8.1 is in-place updated from win8 .
Maybe you need to check the state of hypervisorlaunchtype .
If it is off , please run command " bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto "

Hyper-v virtual machine management in status stopping

Hello,
I had a problem with one vm showing status backing up.
I read on TechNet that restarting the hyper-v virtual machine management service would solve the problem.
I have tried to shutdown the service but it now says status stopping...
How long time does it take to shutdown the service? Is there anything I can do to hurry it up?
ps. I have production vm running on the host that I can't take down...
Regards
Roger

Hi Roger,
I also tested in my lab to disable that service forcibly ,then I found that it will leads the VMs to unexpected shutdown .
Based on this ,it seems that restarting the host is necessary .

How to connect USB external Harddisk to Hyper-v virtual machine

Hi,
We are running hyper-v server 2008 R2, we have external USB harddisk connected in hyper-v Manager, we are not able connect this USB to virtual machine.. is this option is available in hyper-v? if no is there any document from microsoft stating the same?
Regards
Asha

Hi,
Unfortunately, USB is not supported on a Hyper-V virtual machine. You can perform the following suggestions:
1. Offline the USB hard disk on the Hyper-V host machine and connect it to the virtual machine as a pass-through disk(if the USB hard disk is support)
For more information, you can refer to:
Configuring Pass-through Disks in Hyper-V
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askcore/archive/2008/10/24/configuring-pass-through-disks-in-hyper-v.aspx
2. You can also use some USB over Ethernet application.

Hyper-V Virtual machine disappeared

Hello,
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.

Restored Hyper-V Virtual Machine Snapshots by error

Hi Everyone,
We are facing a disaster !!, One of our team restored an old Hyper-V Virtual Machine Snapshot by error which erased our recent databases. So i'am wondering is there a miracle to restore that data. Like we can flashback to 3 hour later.
Help is very appreciated !!
Yasser Emad

Hi Yasser,
Unless a snapshot was taken just before reverting back to the old snapshot, or a backup exists, I'm afraid I don't believe there is.
Is this a checkpoint from failover cluster manager or SCVMM?
Kind Regards

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.

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:

Hyper-V Virtual Machine manager

When using the Hyper-V Virtual Machine Manager and Connecting or Viewing using RDP is there any way to configure the app to span multiple monitor, (3) would be great

Hi Sir,
I'm afraid you need to use "mstsc.exe" to RDP to that VM instead of "vmconnect" in hyper-v manager .

Cant create replica and Hyper V virtual machine management service slow shutting down

Hi,
I cant create replica and Hyper V, I go through the process and all looks good it even starts to create the hard disk but it stops at 4096K and the wizard just keeps going.
The management console is also slow or wont load virtual machines - stuck on loading virtual machines
The Hyper V virtual machine management service slow shutting down over 30 minutes on re boot of Hyper V core 2012 R2
Any ideas ?

Hi Sir,
I assume that you have a standalone hyper-v server 2012R2 and you are using hyper-v manager to manage the hyper-v host .
Which system you are using to manage hyper-v host , win8 or win8.1 or other ?
Have you created VMs on the HOST ?
I would suggest you to create vhd or someother operation on hyper-v host directly to check the result .

Create Protection Group Hyper-V Virtual Machines Not Listed

Hello,
We are in the process of testing DPM 2012 R2 and we are trying to backup our Hyper-V virtual machines on both cluster hosts and stand-alone Hyper-V hosts. We have deployed the DPM agent to all cluster hosts and the stand-alone hosts, but when we go
to create a protection group, we do not see Hyper-V Virtual Machines listed under "HyperV". We are expecting Virtual Machines to show up as shown in Step 7 of this guide: http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2013/11/07/dpm-2012-r2-quickstart-deployment-guide.aspx.
We have DPM 2012 R2 UR4 installed and Hyper-V role is enabled on the DPM server.
Is there something extra we need to do or something we are doing wrong?
Thank you.

Gleb,
Thank you for your help. For our cluster, we realized we weren't seeing any VM's under the Cluster Node because an agent was not installed on our of the Hyper-V hosts in the cluster. As for the stand-alone Hyper-V host and the cluster node listing
within the "Create New Protection Group" wizard, it looks like MOST of the VM's have the "Backup Using Child Partition Snapshot" option, but no longer show as "Online" or "Offline". I believe this is due to the
way the Hyper-V backups are done w/ DPM which was changed either in R2 or one of the Update Rollups.

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
