Is it possible to Migrate Live VMs from a Windows 2012 Hyper-V Cluster to a different 2012 R2 Cluster?

At the moment I'm in a bit of dilemma because I know that Windows 2012 supports "Shared Nothing Live Migration" but recently I got to know that this feature is available for stand alone Hyper-V Servers. My Setup is that I have
3 Servers running Windows Server 2012 Hyper-v Failover Cluster and I need to migrate everything to a new cluster running on Windows Server 2012 R2 and offcourse some VMs can't be turned off during migration so I need to do this live during production hours.
Another note is that both clusters will be running on the different LUNs since each cluster has its own CSVs. I need to know if it is possible to migrate such VMs/Roles Live without have any downtime of the VMs/Roles?

Yes, but one exception - live migration works only on "compatible cpu's". There actually is a setting in CPU for forcing compatibility
mode. If that is not set, and you mvoe for example from AMD to Intel, then - this is not possible in live migration, cluster or not.

  • Migration of VMs from WS2012 Hyper-V Hosts Cluster to WS2012 R2 Hyper-V Hosts Cluster

    Hello All,
    We’re currently running our production VMs on a Failover Cluster of Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V Hosts. We’re planning to migrate these VMs to the cluster of
    Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V Hosts.
    I have created a failover cluster of Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V Hosts, and successfully tested the HA of my new test VMs on this new cluster.
    Anyone please tell me the procedure, steps and best practices to migrate these VMs from Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V Hosts to Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V
    Hosts.
    Thank you.

  • Is it possible to migrate the app from latest version to older version

    Hi all,
    I have a adf application in jdeveloper 11.1.1.4.0.Due to some issues i have to do it in jdeveloper 11g release 2 (11.1.1.2.0).Is it possible to migrate the application from latest version to older version of jdev.
    Thanks.

    It's not officially supported, but you can try a couple of things - first open the application in the old version and see if it works.
    If it doesn't you can try creating a new application in the old version and then use the create project from existing source option to map to your existing code.
    This all of course assumes that you didn't use features in the new version that are not available in the old version.

    Is it possible to stream live video from a camera to an iPad3 via bluetooth or a cable?
    I want to use my iPad as a screen for a reversing camera in my van and want to know if this is possible. do i need a bluetooth camera and is there a specific one that will connect to the iPad? Or is there any form of adaptor that I can plug the camera straight into the iPad?
    Any ideas?

    no
    only "live" thing one can do is to airplay mirror the screen of a ios device or a newer mac with mtn lion

  • Migrating the CA from 2008 to 2012 PKI ?

    Hi All,
    I am using the HSM in my PKI environment and i performing the migration of CA from 2008 PKI to 2012 PKI. What i noticed is if the private key of CA is protected by OCS card then i don't see the CA certificate while running the  Microsoft wizard at the
    option of choose the existing certficate and private key but if i change the protection of private key to module or default protection then i am able to see the certificate and able to complete the migration.
    So is there a way i can still do the migration of CA without changing the protection of private key from OCS to module or default protection ??

  • Best Way to Migrate Home Folders from Dell Windows 2003 to XServe 10.6

    We are migrating Directory services and File service from a Windows Server to an Xserve running 10.6. What is the best way to copy over all of the data including everyone's home folders from the Windows server to our new Xserve while preserving the file attributes?
    Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Jay,
    good news for you - since Oracle 11g it is allowed to have a physical standby between Windows and Linux. So the absolutely easiest way would be to build up a standby on your new Linux server, do a switchover with one minute downtime at a maximum ... and that's it.
    You may check ML Note:413484.1 for certification (the table shows which OS mix is allowed).
    The process will be the following:
    1) Let RMAN build up your standby automatically through the network while your PROD is still running
    2) Once RMAN has done this job you'll do a simple switchover
    If a standby solution is not an option for you, then you could use Data Pump on a NETWORK_LINK.
    This means: You build up a new and empty database on your RHEL server - you create a database link between those two databases.
    Then you run a full import without creating a dump file through the db-link:
    IMPDP usr1/password NETWORK_LINK=db_link1 FULL=Y
    You may check out Note:553337.1 for more info on Data Pump.
    Transportable Tablespaces or Transportable Database with RMAN would also be an option but those require some additional prep work.
    Kind regards

  • Is it possible to remove a video from a window and play it separately?

    I'm trying to watch a live stream from a website. Unfortunately all the other information on the website is useless to me. Is there a way that I could remove the video player from the browser and play it on its own? If not, is there a way that I can make the video larger without sending the video into full screen? I disable the other boxes from showing on screen, but still the video is too small.
    Please note that the stream is completely legal and paid for.

    Okay, that's what I figured. I had zoomed in on the browser before, but I was just curious if there was a more elegant way to enlarge the player. Thanik you for your help!
    Maybe this is something Adobe can look into (popping the player out). It'd be very useful for those of us in the corporate world who need to watch the news or tickers without having to be stuck on the browser. Yes tabs are available, but then it obscures the video. A stay on top tool option would be useful as well.

    Are you using WiFi? if you are this will take a long time, switching to a wired connection will go much faster but as you have started I would not change now.

  • When migrating ssis packages from 2005 to 2012 Activex Script Task component doesn't exist in 2012 version

    Hello,
    We are migrating the ssis packages from 2005 to 2012.
    I'm unable to convert Activex Script Task from 2005 vesrsion to 2012 because in 2012 version Activex Script Task doesn't exist.
    Can anyone please let me know what is the alternative way to convert Activex Script Task from 2005 vesrsion to 2012?

    Hi Vinay9738,
    Have you tried to upgrade the SSIS 2005 packages to SSIS 2012 packages by using the SSIS Package Upgrade wizard? In certain cases, ActiveX script in SSIS won’t work and we need to either modify the script or replace the ActiveX Script with stock SSIS
    tasks. You can find the mapping between some most common patterns used in DTS ActiveX Script and SSIS native tasks from the following link:
    http://help.pragmaticworks.com/dtsxchange/scr/ActiveX%20Script%20Task.htm
    Here is also a useful link about how to convert ADODB object of ActiveX Script to SSIS tasks:

  • "Migrating" computer variables from 2007 to 2012

    I'm in the process of migrating server clients from a 2007 to 2012 environment. The computer objects all have quite a few computer variables associated with the objects that are used during OSD task sequences.
    When we do a "bare-metal" build, the computer objects are deleted and recreated, and the variables are re-populated from a reference source of truth on the new object. So no problem there.
    For the migration though, I was going to install the CM2012 client (basically upgrade the client from 2007) on the servers which will then have them register with the CM2012 site. However when this happens the variables won't be applied to the 2012
    computer object.
    I have a few ideas to resolve this, but was wondering if anyone else had already dealt with this situation?
    Some thoughts I was considering:
    1: Orchestrator job that identifies "new" computer objects in 2012 and regenerates the variables from the source of truth
    2. Powershell/WMI/VBScript that reads the variables from the 2007 computer object and "copies" them to the 2012 object
    Any other thoughts or suggestions welcome
    Scott.

    Thanks Torsten, I do appreciate the replies, but I will have to respectfully disagree with the question being answered perfectly.
    I had asked "...was wondering if anyone else had already dealt with this situation?". I don't actually see how an answer of "I've never done this, but use powershell" is the perfect answer. This would also not serve to help any other
    people that might come across this post looking for a similar solution.  I had marked that post as "helpful", but did not "mark as answer" because it didn't actually offer anything beyond what my first post already stated.
    However, I'm not looking to argue. I'll post any powershell scripts or other things I end up using to help anyone else who comes across this post. There are far too many posts in the TechNet forums that just seem to get automatically closed as answered
    when there is no real answer provided.

  • Problems opening word files with Word 2011 from a Windows 2012 server volume

    Here is what we are seeing. Open any Word document on our server with Word 2011 (mac) results in an excruciating delay. Even a  simple one page document will take over a minute to open up. The same document opened from the desktop of the mac opens in
    2 seconds. 
    In troubleshooting this I turned on invisibles for my mac and watched the folder on the server where the file resides. Here is what I noticed.
    1. If I open that file from a windows computer there is an invisible temp file created for the file that disappears when I close the document. The file opens on the Windows 7 machine with Office 2010 very quickly (2 seconds)
    2. If I open the file from my mac with the preview of Word 2016 the same temp file is created and the file opens very quickly. (2 seconds).
    3. If I open the file from my mac with Word 2011 it takes over a minute and I don't get a temp file on the server. Closing the document takes just as long.
    So, what I am guessing is that Word 2011 is trying to create the temp file, tries for a minute, and finally gives up and opens the file anyway. When I close the file I am guessing it is looking for that temp file and finally gives up after a minute and closes
    the file anyway. 
    Any insights as to what is going on would be appreciated. Our users are very frustrated with this situations.

    Hi,
    Since the issue only occurs to Word for Mac, I'm not familiar with the mechanism how it opens a file, we mainly supports Office for Windows in this forum. Please post the question in Office for Mac forum for further assistance:
