SCVMM created VMs not displayed in Failover Cluster Manager

$
0
0

I have a 2012 Hyper-V failover cluster setup and recently added SCVMM 2012 SP1 to the mix so I could perform some P2V migrations and familiarize myself with its other many capabilities. I noticed that if I create a VM inside SCVMM it doesn't show up in the FCM UI with the other VMs I created from FCM. VMs that you create in FCM do get picked up by SCVMM however. Is this by design?

Thanks,

Greg


SCVMM VMNAME Resource shows in failover cluster

Hi,

When creating VM's in SCCM I am noticing that the VMs are named "SCVMM VMNAME Resource".  I only only it to show the VMNAME like all the other servers.

Is there a way to disable this?

Many thanks

Hyper-V failover to vm host outside SAN.

$

Hi All,

I have a client that is looking to set up a failover server located in a different building.

Their current set up consists of 2x Windows Server 2008R2 Hyper-V hosts running 14 vm's in one cluster sitting on a HP SAN. Using SCVMM 2008R2

My question is, is there a way to set up failover to a third vm-host in a different building with it's own dedicated storage?

If not, could you suggest an alternative to what they are looking for?

Create Multiple Hyper-V Cluster with SCVMM?

Hi folks,

We have multiple servers with 2 different hardware specs (CPU, NIC, HBA) ,  We already created 1 HyperV cluster with SCVMM

with 1 type of severs (3) and plan to create another cluster with the other type of servers.  Is it doable on SCVMM?  what's the best practice for this?   Do we need to create different logical networks in SCVMM to accommodate the new cluster?

Thanks.

Adding a Hyper-V host to a cluster in SCVMM takes a long time

$
0
0
I have a 7 node Hyper-V (all 2012 R2) cluster and am adding in 2 additional nodes. The cluster is running approximately 75 virtual machines and all are configured as roles in the failover cluster. When I add the nodes to the cluster via SCVMM (2012 R2), it is taking a very long time and sitting at 47% overall progress for the "Add Host to Cluster" job and showing step 1.3 "Validate Cluster : Processing storage configuration data on virtual machine '<virtual machine name'." sitting at 83%.  The validation has been going for 6 hours now and seems to be taking forever per virtual machine.  Our environment is going to continue to grow so I would like to find a resolution to this.  Obviously I don't want to skip the validation tests but the time frame seems a little excessive for adding a host.  I have not tried the same operation outside of SCVMM at this point because I want to ensure that any "extras" that SCVMM does is applied correctly (such as MPIO settings I think).

Overcommited, but should not be overcommited.

Hello all,

One of our clusters is currently in a state of being overcommited. We have 1 host as reserve and the cluster contains of 5 hosts. We use 2012 R2. I have used the following article to calculate where the issue could be:

http://www.miru.ch/unveiling-cluster-overcommit-in-scvmm-2012-hyper-v/

However, I get the results below. All the outcomes are positive, so what could be the issue? I suspect it has something to do with the 192 GB vm. Also, is there any impact for failover? All other hosts seem to have enough memory to support any other host failover.

Failover Cluster Takes Control of non-designated HA SAN LUNs

$
0
0

I have a Compellent SAN configured with a 20TB CSV that is used for the HA VMs. On top of that I have configured six 5TB LUNs that are assigned to the individual hypervisors (1 each). Sometimes without knowing until it's too late the FCM (Failover Cluster Manager) takes control of one of the non-HA LUNS and assigns it to the current storage owner. This, of course, breaks any VM with resources stored on that LUN.

Is there a way to tell FCM to not take control of a certain disk or LUN from the hypervisors?

Dear all,

I have a 2 node failover cluster connected to a storage via iSCSI hosting 6 VMs all and i´m facing a serious performance problems, can someone help me or send me hits on our and from where should I start troubleshooting. The VMs are definitely slow. 

Here are my configuration

NODE 1 and 2 connected to the storage via iSCSI. All the servers and storages are on the same LAN Switch, no VLANs just different IPs.

NODE 1 and 2 are the same box, HP DL 380p G8, 4 Cores of 2.50GHz CPU with 48GB of RAM and 32 GB of RAM.

The VMs are running with 8 and 6 GB of RAM and 1 vCPU of 2 Cores.

The OS os the Host and VMs are the same, Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition.

The VMs are running webserver, company applications and database.

Please I need help.

Storage migration using management network

$
0
0

Hello,

 

We have two 8 node 2012R2 Hyper-V clusters. Both clusters have the same networking configurations -  separate networks for Live Migration\Cluster and management. 

 

We need to storage migrate a number of VMs from one cluster to another.

 

I'm using SCVMM to do this. 

 

When I do it with the virtual machine turned on it uses the Live Migration network and SMB multichannel, so no problem here.  However, When the VM is turned off It uses the management network instead :/


I would have thought a storage migration would be quicker when the VM is turned off - we can accept the downtime for these services

 

Why does this happen and is there a way to force it to use the Live Migration network even when the VM is turned off? 

Thanks in advance


ISCSI communication with HyperV Nodes - 10GB Switch

$

Hi,

I am trying to setup a two node cluster with ISCSI storage in System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2012 R2. . I am unable to get HyperV hosts to communicate to ISCSI Target in VMM. 

HyperV Node 1 : three 1GB Nic's and two 10 GB Nics (OS : Server 2012 R2)

HyperV Node 2 : three 1GB Nics and two 10 GB nics (OS : Server 2012 R2)

ISCSI Server : two 1 GB Nic's and two 10 GB Nic's 

Server which has VMM on it : three 1 GB Nic's and one 10 GB NIC

I am tring to use 10GB NIC's for Storage communication and all these 10GB NIC's are connected to SuperMicro SSE-X24SR-L3 10GB layer 3 switch. 

all the 1 GB NIC's are connected to cisco Switches with connection to Internet.

How can I configure VMM to use 10GB NIC's for Storage communication so that I can use 1 GB NIC's for Host management and Virtual machine management?

Random host in cluster enter state "host not responding" after refresh

Hello!
After updating our SC VMM 2012 SP1 server to 2012R2 rollup 7 some hosts in our IBM HS23 Windows Server 2012R Hyper-v  clusters after refresh enter state "host not responding" and after another refresh that hosts become available again, but other hosts in cluster become  "host not responding". This behavior is observed regardless of any ongoing operations or host configuration change, during this state host act normal and responding over ping, rdp, winRM, and scom monitoring reports nothing unusial, firewalls on hosts and VMM server are set to allow all traffic on any type of networks. I tried reinstalling VMM agents, update SC VMM to rollup 8 even change winRM timeout, but error still persists.
Here is error message, that I get after cluster refresh:

Ensure that the VMM agent is installed and running. If the error persists, restart the virtualization server (xx.xxx.ru) and then try the operation again.

VMs with status: Missing

Hello,

I have SCVMM 2012 R2 managing a 212 R2 failover cluster with 4 nodes. The console shows a few dozen of VMs with "Missing" status, without an obvious reason.

I've tried to live migrate them from one node to another, but every refresh job fails with the following error:

Error (2915)
The Windows Remote Management (WS-Management) service cannot process the request. The object was not found on the server (node33.global.corp).

WinRM: URL: [http://node33.global.corp:5985], Verb: [GET], Resource: [http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wmi/root/virtualization/v2/Msvm_VirtualSystemSettingData?InstanceID=Microsoft:99349A00-071F-4D47-B27B-EA78E36AA34A]

Unknown error (0x80338000)

Recommended Action
Ensure that the VMM agent is installed and running. If the error persists, restart the virtualization server (node33.global.corp) and then try the operation again. 

This error can also happen due to an older version of the VMM agent on the virtualization server. Ensure that the VMM agent is upgraded to the latest version, and then try the operation again.

The VMM agent version is not older.

I've also tried to restart the respective node, but the result is the same.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you,

Gabriel

Any idea of when XenServer 6.5 will be supported in SCVMM 2012R2? I've just installed Update Rollup 8 and still receiving the message

Error 20555

"The Citrix XenServer host %1 could not be added because the version of the hypervisor is not supported by Virtual machine Manager. Ensure your XenServer hosts are version 6.0."

I have the Microsoft System Center Integration Pack 6.5.0 installed, certificates saved to the Trusted People store, but still the same error persists.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

SCVMM 2012 SP1 add node to existing hyper-v cluster

$

0

When I configure a Hyper-V host system in SCVMM 2012 SP1 (add the configured logical switch, add virtual adapters on the host system for LiveMigration and Cluster network) and want to add this host to an existing Hyper-V R3 cluster with the exact same configuration regarding the logical switch that is used and the virtual network adapters, I still get the following error in SCVMM 2012 SP1:

Error (25343)
No network adapter found on host <FQDN of hyper-v host system that is trying to join the cluster> that matches cluster virtual switch vSwitch.

Recommended Action
Please add a network adapter to the host and set the Logical Networks on the adapter to match the cluster network.

This error doesn't make sense because I created the logical switch on this host with the name vSwitch.

Anybody any ideas or can this be reported as a bug?


Regards
Stijn
