Hello guys,
i ve been in trouble with hyper v on ws 2012 r2.. the issue is that when i restart my server Hyper-v Virtual machine management service takes an eternity to stop, so i hard reboot.. after that my machines are in runnig state.. also when i try to shutdown my vm-s, their state goes to stopping critical.. any ideas would be helpful..
thanks

hello guys,
i tried to import a ova file using xen orchestra and i get:

"memory": 1073741824, "nameLabel": "pfSense", "networks": [ null, null ],
"errors": [
{ "code": null,
"reason": "type",
"message": "must be string, but is null",
"property": "@.data.networks[0]" },
{ "code": null, "reason": "type", "message": "must be string, but is null", "property": "@.data.networks[1]"

above is the error i get when i import pfsense OVA file into my Xen host.

have you got any idea?

@scottalanmiller hi thanks, i posted the above case even in the xo-forum, i hope it is not a problem?

yes i selected pfSense ova to import through xen orchestra, and in the logs after the import started i visualized the error above

thanks guys i'll give it a try and get back to you..
thanks a lot for the support

@Dashrender windows vm is in vbox, as you cannot create windows vm's in xen nested in vbox because they require HVM mode

Hello,
is there any tool or log that can track memory in windows server 2012 r2, as in my case the memory was 100 %, the primary service that should take the memory and normally has the most memory does not... in this case it has 100 Mb of ram where usually it takes up to 6 GB.. and i cannot find the "Culprit"

any ideas?

thanks guys,

@wirestyle22 updates were applied only in the VM's not the host.. everything is ok, just for a vm an error about integration services

@wirestyle22 no i did not reboot the server before that state..
actually let me explain what happend in the first place:

yesterday all things worked fine vswitch etc..
today all the vm's including my host sever had limited network.
i connected a second cable and connected to the host..
i tried to work with my vm's change their network etc.. the vms went in stopping state..
then i tried to change the network setting of the vswitch from static to dynamic IP.. at that moment my host crashed.. i had only the hyper v window open.. all the windows features were gone, like windows explorer had crashed..
at this point i force rebooted my server.. when it went back up, the same things happen, i connect to a vm. i try ti restart it vm hangs and goes in stopping state

@wirestyle22 yes,, because i could not shut down the vm's as they went in stopping critical state

@Tim_G i did stop my server forcefully a couple of times,

@Alket_tux all working fine until yesterday, when i left my office and let windows update
on all servers

@wirestyle22 windows server 2012 r2 my primary server
hyper v role on top of it
6 ws2012 r2 vm's created

@wirestyle22 i found some kb related solutions but haven't applied yet

i have not inserted integration services manually but yesterday everything worked fine..
by the way i have emulex nic's and in google i found that it might be a problem

@wirestyle22 i tried to do that, but it did not stop, it remained in stopping state.. and in the logs it showed that the vm-s were running so this service cannot be stoppoed

@wirestyle22 it means that the state of the vm is running again, it just does not show the resources allocated to it
