Virtual machine won't start 2008R2

I have a W2008R2 host running hyperV with 3 virtuals, also W2008R2. These have been running very well for almost 3 years. Suddenly around 2:00 AM one VM quit for unknown reasons. The event log on the host says events 12010 and 12240 stating it can't open
a file, but I looked in the folder containing the the VHD's and they look fine to me. The VM settings show the boot drive (C:) on the IDE and then I had 2 drives on the Synthesized SCSI host, one was just a NTFS and the other is a USB disk for Windows Server
Backup. It does say one physical disk is missing. That would have to be the USB drive since it is only physical. Regardless shouldn't it at least boot up since VHD's are OK? Will it boot if I remote that physical disk in VM settings?

Hi Oregonbob,
My best bet is remove the usb drive and then give it a try. Worse scenario try to remove the SCSI
disk as well. Without further check up it's difficult to predict and advice but follow the first two steps and check.

Time Machine won't start after migration to new MacBook Pro.

I upgraded to a new MacBook Pro. Both machines are running OS X 10 (10.7.5 on old, 10.8.2 on new). I used an ethernet cable for the data migration.
I'm trying to use the Time Capsule we've been using all along for Time Machine, but Time Machine won't start because there's only 5.1GB free on the device and it wants to run a full backup. "The backup is too large for the backup disk. The backup requires 252.33 GB but only 5.07 GB are available."
What are my options? I'd hate to lose prior versions of all the data I've moved to the new machine, but if I have to, then I have to. But then I'm not sure how to access the Time Capsulre base as a non-backup drive and delete what's there.
Thanks for yor help.

Windows in VM is going to know it's on a different machine, so you'll still have to hop through Microsoft's hoops or you won't get updates.
Just an FYI: when moving a Fusion virtual machine, the first time you run the virtual machine, you are prompted if you "moved it" or "copied it". Selecting "moved it" will retain the UUID and prevent Windows from prompting for reactivation. (However, if it is a copy of the virtual machine and you wanted to run both copies simultaneously on the same network, you must select "copied it" otherwise the copies can't run at the same time.)
If one did select "copied it" accidentally, then just follow the reactivation prompts. As long as you're not reactivating a lot then it usually will work the normal way over the internet. Even if you're forced to call, just tell the support rep that you're reinstalling Windows and type in the really long code that they say. The few times I've had to call, it was less than 15 minutes. Again, as long as you're not reactivating a lot (so looking suspiciously like a pirate,) reactivation is a pain, but relatively quick.

Blade server is start but virtual machine is not started

i have a oracle virtual machine on blade server if any outage or planned activity is done the blade server is started automatically but virtual machines is not started
manually start the virtual machines any suggestions kindly share me.

Hi user,
As long as youhave access to the linux sever from your windows server, you're good to go. Open your admin tool, go to File --> Open --> Offline.
The Open window pops up. On the "File Name" field, enter the path of rpd file in the linux server (Ex: \\Server_Name\local\MyRpd.rpd). Select the file, and voilà!
I hope this helps.

Windows Virtual Machine Doesn't Start

I recently installed a clean install of windows 7 pro 64-bit. I installed windows XP mode as described on the microsoft website followed by the update provided but when I try to open windows virtual PC nothing happens. I click on the program icon and nothing happens. When I try to open windows XP mode I get the error message "Cannot start Windows Virtual PC Host Process. Check the System event log for more detials. Server execution failed" Once I check the event log there is nothing there. The PC I am running on supports hardware virtualization and it is enabled in the bios. My coworker just installed windows XP mode on the machine right next to mine and it works fine. Can someone please tell me how to get this thing to work. Running virtual 2007 is not an option.

Same problem.
In past i've used successful windows virtual pc, but now it won't work.
I tryed uninstallind the Windows6.1-KB958559-x64.msu update and the windows xp mode and deleting the old virtual machines.
After reinstall the Windows6.1-KB958559-x64.msu update the problem returns as before.
I get this error: "Cannot start Windows Virtual PC Host Process. Check the System event log for more detials. Server execution failed"
Looking at the event viewer into "Applications and Services Logs/Microsoft/Windows/Virtual PC/Admin" i find "Virtual machine ''. Error - Server execution failed"
(0x80080005)" and just before this message i get "One or more files from the Virtual PC installation are missing. Please reinstall Virtual PC and try again."
So i tryed a lot of times uninstalling and reinstalling, unsucessfully. What i can do?

Virtual Machine Failes to Start: Server execution failed (0x80080005).

I am unable to create new VMs as well.
I have already run
sfc/ scannow
DISM
Already Tried disabling the antivirus
Upon using wbemtest and connecting to root\virtualization, I am able to click Enum Classes > Recursive
Kindly suggest how to get HyperV working please. Any help (short of reinstalling /resetting windows) would be much appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Dr Vivek Gupta

Hi,
The key point would be this:
The Virtual Machine Worker Process has lost its connection to the root\virtualization WMI namespace: General access denied error (0x80070005).
Please open MMC, add Component Services snap-in:
Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer -> DCOM Config -> Windows Management Instrumentation -> Right Click, Properties -> Security “Launch and Activation Permission” -> Edit -> gave Authenticated Users
Full Control
Check the result.

Starting Virtual Machine will not start from hibernate mode.

Hi. I had a BSOD and upon rebooting my machine one of my virtual machines is stuck in "hibernate" mode and will not boot up.
I attempted to restore to previous versions of the vmc, but that did not work.
The error i receive is.
"Could not enable integration functions"
Retry or Continue.
Selecting "Continue" states "the operation failed. The virtual machine is not running"
Does anyone have any idea how to get a VPC up and running from this situation?
Thanks, Tim

[Forum FAQ] Resolve virtual machines fail to start issues

After you restart the Hyper-V Host server and the guest virtual machines, you may encounter the error:
An error occurred while attempting to start the selected virtual machines(s).
Here are three common issues.
Issue 1
On a Windows Server 2008-based machine that has the Hyper-V role installed,
or on a Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008-based machine, you encounter the following:
• When you try to connect to a virtual machine, error occurs:
Cannot connect to the virtual machine because the authentication certificate is expired or invalid. Would you like to try connecting again,
• When you start a virtual machine, error occurs (Figure 1):
An error occurred while attempting to change the state of virtual machine
‘VMname’
'VMName' failed to initialize.
Could not initialize machine remoting system. Error: ‘Unspecified error’ (0x80004005).
Could not find a usable certificate. Error:
‘Unspecified error’(0x80004005).
Figure 1: ‘Unspecified error’ (0x80004005).
Cause:
This issue may occur if the Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management service (VMMS) certificate has expired.
Solution:
Install the Hotfix.
You cannot connect to a virtual machine when the Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V VMMS certificate has expired
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/kb967902/en-us
Workaround:
Follow the steps below to generate a new certificate.
1. Shut down or save all virtual machines.
2. Restart the Hyper-V VMMS.
3. Start the virtual machines.
Note:As the Hyper-V VMMS certificate is valid for one year, the update has to be applied to prevent this issue from occurring in the future.

Issue
2

2. Prior messages in the event log.
3. Available RAM on the system.
4. Free disk space for the storages of the memory files and expanding virtual hard disks.
In addition, if you are using the VMMS, please restart the VMMS service.
CMD:
net stop nvpswmi
net start nvspwmi
PowerShell:
C:\PS>restart-service vmms

Time Machine won't start ML Server 2.2.2

I had to delete some corrupted backups from my Mac Mini Server 2012 running ML Server 2.2.2, now Time Machine service won't start. I get the following errors message:
"Multiple errors occurred on the server while processing commands. Use the console application to view the error messages." OK
I don't see anything in all that gibberish that would lead me to the problem or how to fix it. Any ideas?

A few server restarts seemed to fix the problem.
That's a little too PC-like for me.

Hyper-V virtual machines may not start, and receive the error: Microsoft Emulated IDE Controller (Instance ID {83F8638B-8DCA-4152-9EDA-2CA8B33039B4}): Failed to Power on

I have used the Article ID: 2249906 to try and resove this error. It only started since I have created a dediacted SQL 2008 Server on the network. This is my attempt, so far using icacls:
icacls "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Hyper-V\Virtual hard disks\XYZ-SQL.vhd" /grant "NT VIRTUAL MACHINE
\13101CB0-271Z-4434-9736-E1DE331D316BZ":F
NT VIRTUAL MACHINE\13101CB0-271Z-4434-9736-E1DE331D316BZ: No mapping between account names and security
IDs was done.Successfully processed 0 files; Failed processing 1 files
Any ideas as this is becoming very disruptive to the network as the VM is a DC.
Many Thanks

From your description it sounds as if you have two VMs trying to use the exact same virtual disk. And this is not possible without using differencing disks in between. (it will give the error you describe when trying to power on the second).
Beyond that, I would have expected the configuraiton change to work. Another possibility is simply creating a new VM using the existing virutal disk. This is non-descructive as well and absolutely re-creates all of the VM objects and generates
new security identifiers.
If that does not work, then there is more to this puzzle than has been mentioned here and you will need to provide greater detail.

Automatic Scheduling of Virtual Machine Shutdowns and Start-ups

Is there a scheduler available to Shutdown and Start-up Azure Virtual Machines?

Hi,
Based on my experience, if you shut down the VM within the RDP session, the VM would be in the stopped status and you will still pay for it.
Do you want to stop it to the stopped(deallocated) status to save money? If yes, you can create schedule tasks with Azure PowerShell cmdlets on your local computer.
Start-AzureVM -ServiceName xxx -Name xxx
Stop-AzureVM -ServiceName xxx -Name xxx (VMs would be in the stopped(dealloacted) status)
Stop-AzureVM -ServiceName xxx -Name xxx -StayProvisioned (VMs would be in the stopped status)
Please note that if all the VM in a cloud service are in the stopped(deallocated) status, the public IP address would be changed next time you start a VM.

Hyper-V - virtual machines don't start automatically after power outage

Hi,
I have a HP server running Windows 2012 R2 + Hyper-V. On this server, four VM have Windows Server 2003 R2, and one VM has Windows 2012. After power outage, 1 2003 R2 VM and 1 2012 VM are started properly, but the other three machines aren't. I've started
it manually. All VM's have last version of Hyper-V integration tools installed, the option "Automatically start VM if it was running before the service was stopped" was chosen. I'm not very familiar with Hyper-V, so, I've investigated only Hyper-V-VMMS
event log. There are some recurring errors:
The Integration Services Setup Disk image could not be updated: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. (0x80070020).
and
Failed to get the disk information.
But I think it isn't a clue.
How can I clarify, why these machines aren't started automatically?

Hi EugenBerend,
Maybe it is related to system resources allocation during the start up .
I would suggest you to configure a startup delay for those lower priority machines so that system
can locate enough resource for them.
Hope it helps
Best Regards

Virtual machines won't reboot

I am having a problem with Windows XP guests hanging up when told to reboot remotely. They start the process but then hang until I open the VMWare Server 2 console and actually launch the console of the guest machine. As soon as I click in the guest machine's console window, the machine continues the reboot process.
If this was only happening on one or 2 machines it wouldn't be that big of a deal but we have 50+ machines on various hosts all exhibiting the exact same behavior.
Any ideas as to what could be causing the hang?

Hello and welcome to the communities.
What command (or how) are you issuing the remote shutdown command?

Hi,
Unable to open config file...Check if your vm.cfg are in -rw-r--r--
Check if your disk are in RW.
Check if you can write in your directory. (try something like : touch test)

VMWare fusion turning off automatic virtual machine start

Hello,
Possibly not the best forum for this question, but I hope some of you use VMWare fusion to run Windows on your MAC.
I originally used VMWare fusion eacy windows install to install XP Home as my virtual machine with automatic start up of XP home when VMWare fusion starts. I have subsequently created a new virtual machine for Windows 7 release candidate and want to automatically start this rather than XP when VMWare fusion starts. However I cannot fathom out how to stop VMWare fusion automatically loading and starting XP.
Any ideas? I should probably post this to a VMWare fusion forum, but cannot work out how to do that! I can see the appropriate VMWare forums but cannot see any way to post new threads. I do have a VMWare account.
Many thanks for your help.

Hello Paul,
While Bjorn appears to have answered your question (and if so, you should mark the question "answered" BTW — and Bjorn will get credit for answering!), I'm sure you could use the kind of specialist help available from the Mac-Access mailing list discussion group. There are a number of VMWare Fusion users who also use VoiceOver on that list.
