Turning off VM in guest does not update status in VMM 2012 R2 Update Rollup 2 console

I am seeing an issue with a few VMs where if you turn the VM off from within the guest OS, the status does not change in the VMM console.  
Details about the environment:
Six node cluster running Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Core
Cluster validate completed successfully.  Only warnings due to some VMs being offline
Virtual Machine Manager 2012 R2 with UR2
251 VMs in cluster used for Citrix XenDesktop and XenApp
I've read a few articles similar to this one that refer to a change in the VM Light Refresher schedule from RTM to SP1.  (http://blogs.technet.com/b/chengw/archive/2012/09/17/update-on-vmm-refreshers-what-has-changed-and-what-this-means-to-you.aspx). 
Basically it looks like the light VM refresher was turned off and now we depend upon WMI if the environment support WCF 3.0. 
Does this mean that we're looking at the WMI on the Host or the Guest?  Or, is it possible that I just have WMI corruption in a few guest VMs?
If I want to turn it back on, it seems like I should be able to create a registry DWORD key in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager\Settings called VMPropertiesUpdateInterval and set the value.  Does this seem plausible? 
Would it be supported?

I specifically asked the product team about that.
And this has actually been the behavior all along. However, it was never my experience until after applying UR2.
And this is an experience vs. Product behavior thing. Somewhere in the process something changed with how the one is decided upon when vmm gets more than one match.
I am going to add this to my discussion with them.
Glad we have your issue resolved.

  • When the screen saver turns off my front panel does not refresh.

    when the screen saver turns off my front panel does not refresh. If I use the show desktop button sometimes I can not maximize my vi by just clicking on it from the start bar.

    I utilize both a screen saver and the show desktop feature but have never seen this problem in the past. You might play around with your screen saver settings to see if they have any affect. You might also try another computer just to make sure something larger scale isn't going on. Also, testing with other programs to make sure it isn't a general OS issue is always a good idea. Other possibilities include changing your Video Driver settings, updating your video driver, and uninstalling - reinstalling.

    Thanks for the reply. here is the behavior for all steps:
    1. use oper. system safe mode: it works, I can send email
    2. no oper. sys. safe mode, t'bird safe mode: cannot send mail
    3. no oper. sys safe mode, no t'bird safe mode, all addons disabled: cannot send mail.
    It only works when i use oper. sys. safe mode.
    Addons for t'bird were enabled in this test.
    (Not using T'bird safe mode either in this test.)
    Use BitDefender antivirus, which does not have a setting to turn on/off email scanning. Should I contact BD support? (it seems to point to BD as causing the problem. Interesting that I don't have this problem on 2 other desktops, only the laptop. And in the past, T'bird worked on the laptop. I have tried uninstall and reinstall, but mozilla is SAVING all my account and other info, so I cannot do a clean install. it seems to me that if I could do a clean install, it might work. Any idea how to remove all the data and uninstall?
    thanks,

  • My iphone 4s automatically getting turned off (blank black screen) and not getting started until full battery discharge, after updating to ios 8.0.1

    My iphone 4s automatically getting turned off (blank black screen) and not getting started until full battery discharge. Even on long pressing power button - screen doesn't showing anything - not even "needs charging logo".
    This is happening only since I have updated to new ios version (ios 8.1).
    Is there anyone facing similar issue?? Any suggestion?!?

    Hi jayla_mora,

  • HT5594 After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

    After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone 4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

    I finally just resolved this after not being able to enable location services since upagrading to iOS 7. Posting the solution here 'cause I couldn't find it anywhere else.
    I enabled Restrictions under Settings > General > Restrictions and created a passcode (I'm not sure if this was part of the solution, but it wasn't enabled for me by default.)
    In Restrictions, under Privacy, Location Services was set to "Allow Changes" (This still didn't solve the issue of the greyed-out Location Services switch though - I still couldn't turn it on.)
    Also in Restrictions, I also switched "Find My Friends" to "Allow Changes"
    Once I did step 3, the switch under Settings > Privacy > Location Services was no longer greyed out and could be switched on.
    Hope this helps!

  • When you turn on the ipad2 it does not start up properly.  The rotating disk that happens when you turn off the ipad appears after the apple logo comes up

    When you turn on the ipad2 it does not start up properly.  The rotating disk that happens when you turn off the ipad appears after the apple logo comes up during start-up and stays there for ten minutes.  Then, the ipad will start up properly.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Not much I'm afraid but when mine overheats and won't charge I put it in the fridge for a minute to cool down then try and recharge. Doesn't always work though. Can't wait for contract to expire and change for something better.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    You can restore your backup whenever you want from iTunes or iCloud, depending where you made it.
    Let us know if you succeeded or need any further help.
    I believe you are missing the point. The OP has already restored from back up, but failed to include a specific app in the back up and is trying to recover data for it, which in this case is not possible.

  • SCSFileDownloadServlet fails: User 'guest' does not have sufficient priv.

    Hi,
    We have an ADF application that is using SCSFileDownloadServlet to get documents from UCM. We added the servlet in web.xml and we are using this link to download the documents: /getfile?adapterName=our_adapter_name&dDocName=document12345&dID=12345

    Hi go9189,
    According to your description, you come across the error that User 'guest' does not have permission to run DBCC checkprimaryfile. This issue could happen when the login account doesn't have CREATE DATABASE, CREATE ANY DATABASE,
    or ALTER ANY DATABASE permission in SQL Server instance, or that the login account has no access to the mdf and ldf files when attaching database, so SQL Server recognize the login account as a "Guest".
    To solve the issue, you could pay attention to the points below.
    1. Ensure that the login account has at least CREATE DATABASE, CREATE ANY DATABASE, or ALTER ANY DATABASE permission. You could grant the fixed server role 'dbcreator' or 'sysadmin' to the login account following the steps below.
    a. Connect to SQL Server instance with the login account which has sysadmin fix server role.
    b. Expand the folder 'Security', right click the login, and select Properties.
    c. In the Server Roles tab, check the checkbox for 'dbcreator' or 'sysadmin'.
    2. Make sure that the the login account has full control permission on the mdf and ldf files. For how to grant the login account with full control permission on the mdf and ldf files, please refer to the steps in the following article:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727008.aspx
