Service Management Portal / Azure Pack: Can't connect to VM Console

$
0
0

Hello, I've got a strange problem with the new 2012 R2 Azure Pack & Service Provider Foundation for SC VMM 2012 R2. On the Service Management Portal, I can create Plans, Users and Abonnements without problem and I also can access the Tenant-Portal with the Users I created. There I can create, Start/Stop and delete VMs, but there is one thing I can't do: Connect to the machines via Console or RDP. No matter from which Server/Client, or with which Browser and security settings, its not working.

While using Internet Explorer, after clicking on connect simply nothing happens. When I use Firefox or Chrome, following Errormessage is displayed: "Error downloading the Remote Desktop File for the virtual Computer: [Name]" (crudely translated from german).

This happens with Linux and Windows VMs.

On the Azure Pack Server, the following message is logged every time I try to connect:

Resource provider unexpected exception for request with verb 'GET', operation name 'Outgoing tenant proxy call', request URI 'https://r2-sc2:8090/SC2012R2/VMM/fe8fd994-4377-46d1-a0f3-414ecb4fbbe7/Microsoft.Management.Odata.svc/VirtualMachines(ID=guid'2255635b-f336-4d48-9e84-d726bc50b19a',StampId=guid'd97edce9-d910-4de9-b84c-a62a2271076b')/VMConnection',  version '', client request Id '', server request Id 'f6222642dfd446278922a22dd7ab9ccb.2013-07-24T15:02:19.9992631Z', status code 'InternalServerError', reason 'Internal Server Error', body '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><m:error xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata"><m:code /><m:message xml:lang="de-DE">An error occurred while processing this request.</m:message><m:innererror><m:message>Invoking method GetReadStream of type Microsoft.SystemCenter.Foundation.Psws.Spf.SpfOperationManager failed.

VMM2012 RC: VMM cannot link to this ISO because it is not a standalone ISO stored in a library

$
0
0

Hi,

I am attempting to use VMM 2012 RC to allow users to create new VMs from a template with a blank disk, and then install an OS from an ISO.  The problem I am experiencing is that every time a go to mount an ISO stored in my library on the deployed VM, VMM copies the ISO to the VM's folders.  If I check the "Share instead of copy" option, I get the error below.  This is a problem because I do not want to waste disk space with a copy of the ISO for each copy of the template this is deployed.  

VMM cannot link to this ISO because it is not a standalone ISO stored in a library.

Store the ISO image in the library or link to an ISO image in the library, and then try the operation again.

ID: 824 

I have followed the instructions here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee340124.aspx to share an ISO from a VMM library with my hyper-v hosts, but the issue persists.  

Is there a feature of VMM that I am missing which would allow me to only have a single copy of the ISO file? What constitutes a "standalone" ISO in a library?

Thanks in advance!

More information:

To clarify, I CAN mount an ISO over the share path from Hyper-v and from VMM, but not the Self-Service Portal.  However, when I mount the shared ISO with either working method, VMM puts the VM in a failed "Unsupported VM Configuration" state after a refresh, so I cannot boot it or connect to it in the Self-Service Portal or VMM.  On hyper-v, I can use the mounted ISO just fine.  

This may be a bug in the VMM 2012 RC.

Licensing SCVMM with Hyper-V 2012

$
0
0

We are in the process of migrating from ESX 4.0 to Hyper-V 2012 and are currently evaluating System Center Virtual Machine Manager to both help with the migration and to potentially help with the management once the migration is complete.  I have read the licensing FAQs and items, but am still unable to completely wrap my head around what needs to be licensed.   It looks like I cannot buy VMM separately, though it is the only piece we have any interest in

Our environment will end up being 4 Hyper-V hosts with a TBD number of VMs (assume 100 and growing for now).  We only would plan on 1 SCVMM server for management.  What do I need to purchase as far as licensing? 

Thanks

Hi,

We have 3 servers and 1 works fine. All are joined in AD.

Since upgrade from RC1 to SP1 B1 I cant manage 2 of the servers. We have also tried this thread http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/virtualmachingmgrhyperv/thread/4bd9be4b-0ff9-46f3-bf32-1b7c1245c494 without any improvement.

The error we get is -

"VMM does not have appropriate permissions to access the resource C:\Windows\system32\vmms.exe on the mshost2.hv1.local server.

Ensure that Virtual Machine Manager has the appropriate rights to perform this action.

VMM 2012 Error 20552 - For ISO share VMM does not have appropriate permissions to access the resource

$
0
0

I have included an ISO network share in my VMM 2012 library by:

  1. Library servers -> Add Library Share -> Add Unmanaged Share.
  2. I then selected the file share e.g \fs1\ISO
  3. I set the share permissions on \fs1\ISO to everyone FULL
  4. I set the NTFS permissions to read-only for the following AD accounts:
    • VMM service account
    • VMM Library account
    • HV target host machine account
    • Network service

The problem I have is I still get error the following error regarding permissions:

Error (20552) VMM does not have appropriate permissions to access the resource \\fs1.domain.local\ISO\Zabbix_2.0_x86.i686-0.0.1.preload.iso on the scvmma1.domain.local server.

Ensure that Virtual Machine Manager has the appropriate rights to perform this action. Also, verify that CredSSP authentication is currently enabled on the service configuration of the target computer scvmma1.domain.local. To enable the CredSSP on the service configuration of the target computer, run the following command from an elevated command line: winrm set winrm/config/service/auth @{CredSSP="true"}

I have also set the command on the VMM server winrm set winrm/config/service/auth @{CredSSP="true"} but no joy.

Please note the same error is thrown if i share the iso without copy, and with copying, it seems a permission issue yet I have assigned at least what i have read are the correct permissions.

Any ideas what else I have missed please?

Missing tabs from VM template properties in VMM 2012 SP1

$
0
0

One of the VM templates stored in a library had a few properties modified (Numlock, RAM, processor count) and after saving those changes, there are several tabs missing from the properties window.  I could not reproduce this on other VM templates.  Clones of this template also have the tabs missing. 

The missing tabs are OS Configuration, Application Configuration and SQL Server Configuration.

TFS 2012 lab management will not allow me to create an environment using this template, stating 'Domain User Name' is an not a valid property.

How do I get the missing tabs back?

I am facing issue while creating Linux template for RHEL 6.2.

after I created the VM using ISO and set the operating system accordingly, the create template menu option is disabled.

only clone to template option is enabled.

WMI Performance Counter Error 20513

$

0

We're running SCVMM 2012 SP1 with CU1 on Windows 2008 R2 SP1. A handful of our hosts are showing this error

Error (20513)
The VMM management server cannot retrieve performance data for the computer VHOST1.mydomain.com. This issue may occur if the performance counter provider in the Virtual Machine Manager agent is corrupted.

Recommended Action
Restart the System Center Virtual Machine Manager Agent service on the computer NetVHB001.net.da.ocgov.com. This automatically restarts the performance provider. If the error persists, reinstall the VMM agent on the computer VHOST1.mydomain.com.

I've restarted the VMM service and uninstalled / reinstalled the Agent. Still seeing the errors. Is there another fix for this that someone has been successful with?

Hi

Is Windows XP SP3 supported with VMM 2012 SP1 and later? VMM agent won't install and the service deployment fails. I read at the TN site, that P2V conversion for Windows XP SP3 is not supported anymore with VMM 2012 SP1.

Could use some help. 

Getting the following error when deploying a XP VM Template. I have tried both manual entry in OS configuration as well as using a run-as account. Both with and without DOMAIN\.

"An unexpected error has occurred while changing your computer's network identification. Would you like to proceed for now and try joining a domain later?"

Any one have a clue what I am doing wrong? Everything else about the OS Configuration / Sysprep is working fine.


While trying to update VMM Agent on Host it fails

The updated action is to remove the agent but when I remote to the server only the DHCP aspect was there not the actual agent. I checked Reg within the install section and it is not there at all. So I can't push the update out and I can't uninstall it locally and try the local agent install as it says there is already an agent on the system.

How can this be safely removed manually.

SCVMM 2012 SP1 Rollup 3 installed.

SCVMM 2012 - Error (25100) when removing logical network without dependancies

$

I have been trying to remove some bad old logical networks for awhile now without luck. I have gone through the dependancies and removed them all until there are no more displaying. Then I try and remove the logical network and get prompted quickly with the error (25100) below. I am guesing the only way to remove this is in the database. I have gone into the database and found the ID's for the logical networks. Just curious if anyone knows how to remove them completely from SCVMM in the most efficient and effective manor. I appreciate any help in advance!

Error (25100)
VMM is unable to delete the logical network because dependent resources, such as logical network definitions, are still associated. Contact your VMM administrator for details about this error.

Recommended Action
Remove the logical network association with all dependent resources, and then remove the logical network.

Hi every one 

I Have Installed SCVMM SP1 BETA in Windows server 2012 RTM and managing Hyper-V Hosts.

After two three days, "System center virtual machine manager agent(SCVMM local agent)" service has stopped in SCVMM server.

I m trying to start service manually it is throwing me below mentioned Error

"Windows Could not start the system center virtual machine manager agent service on local computer"

"Error 1067: The process Terminated Unexpectedly"

I can manage all my Hosts without any problem, but my library server is  local scvmm server itself so i m not able to access Templates, ISOs etc that was created earlier.

Sql Services, connections all r running properly and Prerequisites are installed properly(WAIK of Windows 8 and SQL Command line utilities).

I tried Uninstalling and Re-installing the SCVMM SP1 BETA, it worked only for 1 day again the same problem.

I can add new library server but i don't want to do that,

Please give me suggestion to resolve this problem.

Thank & Regards

VMM2012 - Storage Allocation to a Cloud

$
0
0

Hi all, I've got several Windows 2012 hyper-v clusters set up and one of them is a four node cluster that is used for development purposes. Two different business units use this cluster and I've got two seperate clouds set up for them to be able to deploy and manage their own virtual machines. Right now, there is just one CSV on this cluster and both clouds deploy their virtual machines to this volume.  We just recently upgraded our SAN so that we can create SMB file shares and assign them to this hyper-v cluster. What we'd like to do is set up VMM so that each business unit cloud has its own SMB file share to deploy their virtual machines to. Can VMM be set up so that when one of the cloud users from one of the business units deploys a virtual machine, it writes it to the file share that has been created for that business unit? We just want VMM set up so that when a virtual machine is deployed by a business unit cloud user, it just doesnt deploy the vm to the share that it sees as the best option for deployment. Can a cloud be tied to a specific share if multiple shares are defined to a cluster? Any feedback appreciated.

Hi,

I am using SCVMM 2012 SP1 and want to import EMC VMAX 10k storage LUNS to SCVMM . I have installed and configured EMC SMI-S provider latest version (4.6.1.1) on my one of the two hyper-v host according to the link;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIRhmwAITFw

when I try to import the storage from SCVMM console it gives me the below error. I am using SMI-S CIMXML protocol to discover the storage.

My SAN Storage Administrator provisioned 3 LUNS to the my hyper-v servers (I have two hyper-v hosts on which one of them I have installed EMC SMI-S provider). these 3 LUNS are visible on two servers. When I run the command \EMC\SYMCLI\bin\syminq on my hyper v host where i have installed EMC SMI-S provider, it shows me the 3 provisioned LUNS with Gatekeepers.


I have added the admin user according to the link and added it as a Run-As account in SCVMM. When tring to import the LUNS, it shows the above error.

Anyone please help me out to resolve the issue?

thanks in advance
