Server 2012 r2 live migration fails with hardware error

Hello all, we just upgraded one of our hyper v hosts from server 2012 to server 2012 r2; previously we had live replication setup between it and another box on the network which was also running server 2012. After installing server 2012 r2 when a live migration
is attempted we get the message:
"The virtual machine cannot be moved to the destination computer. The hardware on the destination computer is not compatible with the hardware requirements of this virtual machine. Virtual machine migration failed at migration source."
The servers in question are both dell, currently we have a poweredge r910 running server 2012 and a poweredge r900 running server 2012 r2. The section under processor for "migrate to a physical computer using a different processor" is already checked
and this same vm was successfully being live replicated before the upgrade to server 2012 r2. What would have changed around hardware requirements?
We are migrating from server 2012 on the poweredge r910 to server 2012 r2 on the poweredge r900. Also When I say this was an upgrade, we did a full re install and wiped out the installation of server 2012 and installed server 2012 r2, this was not an upgrade
installation.

The only cause I’ve seen so far is virtual switches being named differently. I do remember that one of our VMs didn’t move, but we simply bypassed this problem, using one-time backup (VeeamZIP, more specifically).
If it’s one-time operation you can use the same procedure for the VMs in question -> backup and restore them at new server.
Kind regards, Leonardo.

  • SCCM 2012 Export Task Sequence fails with generic error message

    We have a complex task sequence comprising of more than 50 applications\packages, 1975 drivers, 18 driver packages etc etc. Its long, it's big and it will not export with it's content.
    We have several environments for development test and live. I am attempting to export the primary task sequence with all it's dependencies from live so that I can port it over to a new development environment.
    I can export the zip file without content and it comes to 92Mb in size. The entire task sequence software set is 50Gb+. When I attempt to export with all dependencies and content the process gets about 60% of the way through and fails with the error
    "Error: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect"
    Googling the error roughly defines the problem as 'the export process cannot access the defined source path for one of the dependant items'
    I wrote a PowerShell script that looks as every application, package, driver, driver package, boot image, os image and software update package in the entire SCCM software library and verifies that each and every package has a valid UNC source directory
    that can be reached using test-path.
    I also wrote another tool that parsed the entire source software library on the server looking for permissions errors (permissions on the structure set at a directory level rather than inherited), directories that were too long, inaccessible or otherwise
    blocked, nothing was found.
    It will take a very long time to go through and check each and every dependency by hand - time I do not have at present.
    I looked in the TaskSequenceProvider.log as that is supposed to contain messages from the export process and found the messages in there far too high a level to use

    ====================
    Is there any way of increasing the log verbosity? I need to see what item is causing the export to fail.
    Is there another log containing the information about the export & what it is doing?
    All out builds that use the task sequence complete successfully, we can edit the sequence fine, make changes etc. so no internal corruption we can find.
    Any ideas?

    Torsten, smsprov.log did indeed prove useful, I could see every package as it was validated. Unfortunately the log was wrapping about every 4 minutes and it takes 3+ hours for the task sequence to reach the fail point so I still cannot see the offending
    package as it wraps before I can get to the log.
    I will increase the size of the log and see if I can maintain some details to investigate.
    There was nothing of note in the event logs, certainly nothing leading me to suspect that WMI might be reaching its limits.
    I will keep looking for the cause and will post here when I find it <= positive thinking :)

  • Live Migration Fails with error Synthetic FiberChannel Port: Failed to finish reserving resources on an VM using Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V

    Hi, I'm currently experiencing a problem with some VMs in a Hyper-V 2012 R2 failover cluster using Fiber Channel adapters with Virtual SAN configured on the hyper-v hosts.
    I have read several articles about this issues like this ones:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/baca348d-fb57-4d8f-978b-f1e7282f89a1/synthetic-fibrechannel-port-failed-to-start-reserving-resources-with-error-insufficient-system?forum=winserverhyperv
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/18698.hyper-v-virtual-fibre-channel-troubleshooting-guide.aspx
    But haven't been able to fix my issue.
    The Virtual SAN is configured on every hyper-v host node in the cluster. And every VM has 2 fiber channel adapters configured.
    All the World Wide Names are configured both on the FC Switch as well as the FC SAN.
    All the drivers for the FC Adapter in the Hyper-V Hosts have been updated to their latest versions.
    The strange thing is that the issue is not affecting all of the VMs, some of the VMs with FC adapters configured are live migrating just fine, others are getting this error.
    Quick migration works without problems.
    We even tried removing and creating new FC Adapters on a VM with problems, we had to configure the switch and SAN with the new WWN names and all, but ended up having the same problem.
    At first we thought is was related to the hosts, but since some VMs do work live migrating with FC adapters we tried migrating them on every host, everything worked well.
    My guess is that it has to be something related to the VMs itself but I haven't been able to figure out what is it.
    Any ideas on how to solve this is deeply appreciated.
    Thank you!

  • Migration/Live Migration fails with shared storage (SMB), but not all the time

    I have 2 Hyper-V Hosts using shared storage via SMB. I'm having intermittent issues with migrations failing. It'll either go through the motions of doing the whole move and fail and/or when I try to start it again I get the following:
    I've done a lot of reading on this and have done various things that have been recommended. For each Hyper-V host I've setup delagation via Kerberos. ie. HV_Host1 has CIFS - HV_Host2; CIFS - SMB Server; MS Virtual System Migration Service - HV_Host2 and
    vice versa.
    On the actual SMB share on the Shared Storage server I added permissions to the folder for HV_Host1, HV_Host2, Storage Server, Domain Admins and my user account for full access.
    In Group Policy, I've blocked Inheritance for the OU containing the Hyper-V hosts, though I have added some of the Group Policy's manually that I needed.
    Last thing, I also added Domain Admins to the Local GP on each Host for "Log on as a Service" and "Impersonate a client after authentication" as shown in this thread: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/windowsserver/en-US/7e6b9b1b-e5b1-4e9e-a1f3-2ce72ea1e543/unable-to-migrate-create-vm-hyperv-cluster-2012-logon-failure-have-to-restart-the-hyperv
    I get these failed migrations regardless if I start them on the actual Host or via the admin console from Win8.
    At this point I'm not sure what else to check or the next step to take for this.

    Hi Granite,
    Please refer to following article to build hyper-v over SMB :

  • VMM 2012 R2 Template creation fails with sysprep error via the gui, but works in powershell?

    I'm in the process of trying to convert an existing gen1 VM (Win Server 2012 R2) to a VM template using VMM 2012 R2 with rollup 1. The creation keeps failing with the following error :-
    "Error
    (2901)The operation did not complete successfully because of a parameter or call sequence
    that is not valid.Recommended ActionEnsure
    that the parameters are valid, and then try the operation again."
    I've checked that the local administrator account for the machine being converted to a template and it is blank as expected and in an attempt to troubleshoot I've output the template creation script via the VMM GUI and executed the commands in order which appears
    to have resolved the problem, well the template finishes creation, i'm yet to deploy a machine via it?
    # Create VM Template Wizard Script
    # Script generated on Thursday, April 3, 2014 12:52:15 PM by Virtual Machine Manager
    # For additional help on cmdlet usage, type get-help <cmdlet name>
    $VM = Get-SCVirtualMachine -VMMServer localhost -Name "MyTemplate_Template" -ID "98299447-83e1-4d98-a558-a96ebafcf9b5"
    | where {$_.VMHost.Name -eq "myhost.mydomain.com"}
    $LibraryServer = Get-SCLibraryServer -VMMServer localhost | where {$_.Name -eq "my.library.com"}
    $GuestOSProfile = Get-SCGuestOSProfile -VMMServer localhost | where {$_.Name -eq "Windows Server 2012
    R2"}
    $OperatingSystem = Get-SCOperatingSystem -VMMServer localhost -ID "50b66974-c64a-4a06-b05a-7e6610c579a2"
    | where {$_.Name -eq "Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard"}
    $template = New-SCVMTemplate -Name "My Template" -RunAsynchronously -VM $VM -LibraryServer $LibraryServer
    -SharePath "\\mylibrary.mydomain.com\SCVMM Library\Templates\mytemplatedestination" -GuestOSProfile $GuestOSProfile -JobGroup d2f2f539-85da-4091-ab08-abe739fc4761 -ComputerName "*" -TimeZone 85  -FullName "Administrator"
    -OrganizationName "My Organisation" -Workgroup "WORKGROUP" -AnswerFile $null -OperatingSystem $OperatingSystem 
    Now the only fields that weren't populated when I ran through the gui were FullName and Organization? Before I changed the script these two fields were just set to ""? Is that what has potentially caused the issue are they both required fields?

    Your not the only one who can reproduce this. Did you ever find out what it was? I saw your post and tried your same work-around and it also worked for me via Powershell.

    Yes, definitely check your zoning/masking.  Remember that with vHBA you have twice as many WWPNs to account for.  Performing a live migration makes use of both pairs during the transfer from one host to the other - one set is active on the machine
    currently running and the second set is used to ensure connectivity on the destination.  So if you are using Address Set A on Host1, Host2 will try to set up the fibre channel connection using Address Set B.  If you do a quick migration, you would
    continue to use the same Address Set on the second host.  That's why you most likely need to check your zoning/masking for the alternate set.

  • Windows Server 2012 Windows Backup failed with following error code '0x8078006B' (Windows Backup failed to create the shared protection point on the source volumes.).

    The Volume Shadow Copy service initially was running under the context of System, so we thought that ‘System’ doesn’t have permissions to access network shares. 
    When the Volume Shadow Copy service was running under the context of System, this was the error logged:
    “failed with following error code '0x8078014B' (There was a failure in creating a directory on the backup storage location.).”
    Which is likely due to not having permissions to write to the network location. 
     This is a scheduled backup trying to write to a network location, so we changes the service to run under the context of an account that does have permissions to write to the network share.
      Then the error changed to this:
    “failed with following error code '0x8078006B' (Windows Backup failed to create the shared protection point on the source volumes.).”

    We aren’t really seeing anything that gives any hint on what the issue is. 
    Any ideas?  Thanks in advance!

    We are trying to back up folders/files from 2 local drives (C: & D:), both of which have only 10% space used, and 100 GB free. 
    We are attempting to back the files up to a Remote Shared File (and there is 100+ GB free space out there). 
      If we try another network location, we receive the exact same error. 
     This is Windows Server 2012, not running Hyper-V and is a physical server not a VM.
    Thank you for the link.

  • Hyper-V Live Migration Compatibility with Hyper-V Replica/Hyper-V Recovery Manager

    Hi,
    Is Hyper-V Live Migration compatible with Hyper-V Replica/Hyper-V Recovery
    Manager?
    I have 2 Hyper-V clusters in my datacenter - both using CSVs on Fibre Channel arrays. These clusters where created and are managed using the same "System Center 2012 R2 VMM" installation. My goal it to eventually move one of these clusters to a remote
    DR site. Both sites are connected/will be connected to each other through dark fibre.
    I manually configured Hyper-V Replica in the Fail Over Cluster Manager on both clusters and started replicating some VMs using Hyper-V
    Replica.
    Now every time I attempt to use SCVMM to do a Live Migration of a VM that is protected using Hyper-V Replica to
    another host within the same cluster,
    the Migration VM Wizard gives me the following "Rating Explanation" error:
    "The virtual machine virtual machine name which
    requires Hyper-V Recovery Manager protection is going to be moved using the type "Live". This could break the recovery protection status of the virtual machine.
    When I ignore the error and do the Live Migration anyway, the Live migration completes successfully with the info above. There doesn't seem to be any impact on the VM or it's replication.
    When a Host Shuts-down or is put into maintenance, the VM Migrates successfully, again, with no noticeable impact on users or replication.
    When I stop replication of the VM, the error goes away.
    Initially, I thought this error was because I attempted to manually configure
    the replication between both clusters using Hyper-V Replica in Failover Cluster Manager (instead of using Hyper-V Recovery Manager).
    However, even after configuring and using Hyper-V Recovery Manager, I still get the same error. This error does not seem to have any impact on the high-availability of
    my VM or on Replication of this VM. Live migrations still occur successfully and replication seems to carry on without any issues.
    However, it now has me concern that Live Migration may one day occur and break replication of my VMs between both clusters.
    I have searched, and searched and searched, and I cannot find any mention in official or un-official Microsoft channels, on the compatibility of these two features. 
    I know vMware vSphere replication and vMotion are compatible with each otherhttp://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-55/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.vsphere.replication_admin.doc%2FGUID-8006BF58-6FA8-4F02-AFB9-A6AC5CD73021.html.
    Please confirm to me: Are Hyper-V Live Migration and Hyper-V Replica compatible
    with each other?
    If they are, any link to further documentation on configuring these services so that they work in a fully supported manner will be highly appreciated.
    D

    This can be considered as a minor GUI bug. 
    Let me explain. Live Migration and Hyper-V Replica is supported on both Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 Hyper-V.
    This is because we have the Hyper-V Replica Broker Role (in a cluster) that is able to detect, receive and keep track of the VMs and the synchronizations. The configuration related to VMs enabled with replications follows the VMs itself. 
    If you try to live migrate a VM within Failover Cluster Manager, you will not get any message at all. But VMM will (as you can see), give you an
    error but it should rather be an informative message instead.
    Intelligent placement (in VMM) is responsible for putting everything in your environment together to give you tips about where the VM best possible can run, and that is why we are seeing this message here.
    I have personally reported this as a bug. I will check on this one and get back to this thread.
    Update: just spoke to one of the PMs of HRM and they can confirm that live migration is supported - and should work in this context.
    Please see this thread as well: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsazure/en-US/29163570-22a6-4da4-b309-21878aeb8ff8/hyperv-live-migration-compatibility-with-hyperv-replicahyperv-recovery-manager?forum=hypervrecovmgr

  • Hyper-v 2012 R2 Live migration issue in 2003 Domain function Level

    hi Team ,
    i recently build 2012 R2 Hyper-v Cluster with three node. Everrything working fine with out any issue . Cluster working also fine. Later i came across one issue when tried to Live migration virtual machine from one host to another . it failed all the time
    while quick migration is working . i gone through few articles and find it is known issue with hyper-v 2012 R2 where domain functional level is set to 2003 . although they have provided Hotfix but no solution.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2838043
    Please let me know if any one face similar issue and able to resolve by any hotfix. My host are updated .
    Thanks
    Ravindra

    Hi Ravi1987,
    The KB2838043 is applied for Server 2012 node, Could you offer us the related cluster error event id, or you can refer the following article to check your cluster
    network binding order is correct or not.

  • Live Migration failed using virtual HBA's and Guest Clustering

    Hi,
    We have a Guest Cluster Configuration on top of an Hyper-V Cluster. We are using Windows 2012 and Fiber Channel shared storage.
    The problem is regarding Live Migration. Some times when we move a virtual machine from node A to node B everything goes well but when we try to move back to node A Live Migration fails. What we can see is that when we move the VM from node A to B and Live
    Migration completes successfully the virtual ports remain active on node A, so when we try to move back from B to A Live Migration fails because the virtual ports are already there.
    This doesn't happen every time.
    We have checked the zoning between Host Cluster Hyper-V and the SAN, the mapping between physical HBA's and the vSAN's on the Hyper-V and everything is ok.
    Our doubt is, what is the best practice for zoning the vHBA on the VM's and our Fabric? We setup our zoning using an alias for the vHBA 1 and the two WWN (A and B) on the same object and an alias for the vHBA 2 and the correspondent WWN (A and B). Is it
    better to create an alias for vHBA 1 -> A (with WWN A) and other alias for vHBA 1 -> B (with WWN B)? 
    The guest cluster VM's have 98GB of RAM each. Could it be a time out issue when Live Migration happen's and the virtual ports remain active on the source node? When everything goes well, the VM moves from node A with vHBA WWN A to node B and stays there
    with vHBA WWN B. On the source node the virtual ports should be removed automatically when the Live Migration completes. And that is the issue... sometimes the virtual ports (WWN A) stay active on the source node and when we try to move back the VM Live Migration
    fails.
    I hope You may understand the issue.
    Regards,
    Carlos Monteiro.

    Hi ,
    Hope the following link may help.
    To support live migration of virtual machines across Hyper-V hosts while maintaining Fibre Channel connectivity, two WWNs are configured for each virtual Fibre Channel adapter: Set A and Set B. Hyper-V automatically alternates between the Set A and Set B
    WWN addresses during a live migration. This ensures that all LUNs are available on the destination host before the migration and that no downtime occurs during the migration.

    Yes, domain admins are members of the local administrator group when the macine is joined to a domain, but the opposite is not true.  Local admins are not necessarily members of the domain admins group.

    Tim,
    Yes i Understand that a local administrator is not always a domain administrator, but i think this has nothing to do with my problem.
    To be sure i have logged in to this server with the local administrator user and started the upgrade again. As expected I got the same error message, so this is nog a permissions problem.
    Can somebody who can help me to solve this probleem?

  • Server 2012 R2 - The system failed to register host (A or AAAA) resource records (RRs) for network adapter

    We seem to be having an issue recently after introducing new Windows Server 2012 R2 servers where they fail to register DNS correctly. The Windows Firewall is off and the servers are on the same VLAN with no firewalls between them.
    When I do an ipconfig /registerdns or wait 24 hours for the system to try we get the following error:
    The system failed to register host (A or AAAA) resource records (RRs) for network adapter
    with settings:
               Adapter Name : {4A0ECF05-193F-4BEA-AA46-BEC593BA752B}
               Host Name : SRV-DATA
               Primary Domain Suffix : internal.local
               DNS server list :
    192.168.0.50, 192.168.0.42
               Sent update to server : <?>
               IP Address(es) :
                 192.168.0.99
    The reason the system could not register these RRs was because the DNS server contacted refused the update request. The reasons for this might be (a) you are not allowed to update the specified DNS domain name, or (b) because the DNS server authoritative
    for this name does not support the DNS dynamic update protocol.
    To register the DNS host (A or AAAA) resource records using the specific DNS domain name and IP addresses for this adapter, contact your DNS server or network systems administrator.
    On our DNS server we have set for the internal.local zone Secure Updates only so that looks good because it is Active Directory that should be handling this authentication to update the record I assume. Just to mention that when also doing an ipconfig /regsiterdns
    the update fails within a few seconds. 
    Source: DNS Clients Events
    Event ID: 8018
    User: NETWORK SERVICE
    This issue is only affecting Windows Server 2012 R2 clients and testing with Windows Server 2008 R2 clients works no issues. So is this a mis-configuration or a bug with Windows 2012 R2? I have checked all DNS settings on client / server which all look good
    to me so reaching out now to see if anyone has any ideas?
    Environment:
    - Windows Server 2012 R2 Domain Controllers (Forest/Domain Levels 2012 R2)
    - Windows Server 2012 R2 Client machines (Physical and Virtual)
    - Windows Server 2008 R2 Client machines (Physical and Virtual)

    The zone is configured as "Secure Only"
    The PDC is the SOA for the zone
    I dont have a packet capture from the DC, only the client. 
    The query you asked me to run is too long to paste in here, however this is the DNS zone it cannot update:
    NotifyServers                     : 
    SecondaryServers                  : {10.2.0.3, 10.2.0.5}

  • Server 2012 (not R2) RODC fails to install Windows Updates

    Good morning all
    Since around October, our 80-odd 2012 (non-R2) RODCs have been failing to install windows updates, rolling them back on reboot. Patches that don't require a reboot are fine. The short version is, please log a call with MS and reference this thread, if you're
    having this issue as currently they're saying they won't fix this!!
    Our product support group opened an official case and reported this with Microsoft and they've found the cause. PLEASE NOTE however, that this relates to RODC and ALL patches failing, not just 3000061 on non-RODC.
    There was some chat relevant to this as originally it was thought KB3000061 was to blame, and a few other people had had the same issue there (see links at the bottom). I think however, that this issue now stands alone as any patch we try to install will
    fail.

    000113 [gle=0x80004005]
    Cause:
    The installer uses SAM API calls to manage the group. It always connects to the local SAM instance. The component also handles an uninstall task in the same function. On uninstall the group is being deleted.
    So the SAM handle is requested with "Create Group" and "Delete" access.
    The error happens because a RODC does not allow any changes and thus returns STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED.
    More information about the prevent from accidental deletion feature please refer :
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773347(v=WS.10).aspx
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc739350(v=WS.10).aspx
    Recommendation:
    This is a Bug in the RODC running on server 2012, However you may do an in place upgrade to Server 2012 R2 and then proceed with the installation of the patch.
    The bad news is this is fixed in 2012 R2 with a hotfix - but it isn't fixed in 2012 and it won't be because.. they've only had one official report logged. And that was by us. So, if you want this fixed, you need to start logging this with MS now.
    What I can say just now is that this isn't related to the registry fixes with WinEVT we've all been trying, it's NOT limited to 2008 that has been upgraded in place to 2012 (our product support group replicated it in the lab with a brand new 2012 promoted
    to RODC) and it IS only happening with RODC. Possible fix might be to make your RODC RW for a bit and install your patches then.

    The error indicates that IIS is returning a "404 not found" error back to the Windows Update Agent.  That might mean that you need to specify the correct port that WSUS is listening on, e.g.:
    WSUSServer=http://yourserver:8530

  • Is it possible to uninstall IE 11 from Windows Server 2012 R2 and replace it with the latest version of IE 10?

    Is it possible to uninstall IE 11 from Windows Server 2012 R2 and replace it with the latest version of IE 10? We have a remote desktop farm setup with 2012 R2 servers and we are publishing some web links that only work with IE10. As a result, we need to
    downgrade the remote desktop servers to IE10. I have a feeling that this isn't possible, but if I could get a definitive answer, I would greatly appreciate it, thank you!

    Hi,
    Agreed with DonPick.
    Internet Explorer 11 is preinstalled with Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2.
    More information regarding Internet Explorer 11, please check:

  • Cube refresh fails with an error below

    Hi,
    We are experiencing this problem below during planning application database refresh. We have been refreshing the database everyday, but all of a sudden the below error is appearing in log. The error is something like below:
    Cube refresh failed with error: java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling return; nested exception is:
    java.io.EOFException
    When the database refresh is done from workspace manually, the database refresh is happening successfully. But when triggered from unix script, its throwing the above error.
    Is it related to some provisioning related issue for which user has been removed from MSAD?? Please help me out on this.
    Thanks,
    mani

    I work with 'sdid' and here is a better explaination of what exactly is going on -
    As part of our nightly schedule we have a unix shell script that executes refresh of essbase cubes from planning using the 'CubeRefresh.sh' shell script.
    Here is how our shell looks like -
    /opt/hyperion/Planning/bin/CubeRefresh.sh /A:<cube name> /U:<user id> /P:<password> /R /D /FS
    Here is what 'CubeRefresh.sh' looks like -
    PLN_JAR_PATH=/opt/hyperion/Planning/bin
    export PLN_JAR_PATH
    . "${PLN_JAR_PATH}/setHPenv.sh"
    "${HS_JAVA_HOME}/bin/java" -classpath ${CLASSPATH} com.hyperion.planning.HspCubeRefreshCmd $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7
    And here is what 'setHPenv.sh' looks like -

    We have not made any changes to either the shell or 'CubeRefresh.sh' or 'setHPenv.sh'
    From the past couple of days the shell that executes 'CubeRefresh.sh' has been failing with the error message below.
    Cube refresh failed with error: java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling return; nested exception is:
    java.io.EOFException
    This error is causing our Essbase cubes to not get refreshed from Planning cubes through these batch jobs.
    On the other hand the manual refesh from within Planning works.
    We are on Hyperion® Planning – System 9 - Version : 9.3.1.1.10
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
