Hyper-V and iSCSI drive. Change the driver letter.

Hi again
I have a hyper-v server with 3 drives for the VM.
the first drive is a Raid 5 local drive.
the second and third drives are in a EMC iSCSI SAN.
I have 5 VM in the second drive.
I need to change the letter to this driver (Don't ask me why, It is too long to explain ;-) )
I change the path letter in the VM options. For the snapshots and for the .vhd file.
I tryed to run the machine.
I failed .

I did waste time to study the error.
So I moved the VM with the VMM08 and I changed the drive letter from V: to U:

Hyper-V machine with Netapp iSCSI and Equallogic iSCSI.

hi
I have 2 iSCSI SANS.
I have a hosts server with LUNS from both iSCSI SAN
I use the microsoft iScSI Iniciator.

I have 2 VM in Hyper-V in the LUNs.

The Equallogic iSCSI has the LUNs to connect when the server reboot. (iscsi options)
In the Netapp iSCSI is off the option.

When I reboot the machine, the server doesnt connect with the iSCSI. No Equallogic LUNs, no Netapp LUNs. So, the VM in the LUNs disappared.

I need to force the option "reconnect to reboot" in both conecctions to solve the problem.

SCVMM 08 DC migration and IP error

hi

I have a Domain Controller in a Hyper-V machine.
I migrated a VM to another Hyper-V.
If I migrate a server machine (2k3, ó 2k8), I dont have any problem.
I have problems if I use Vlans. (see http://santospardos.blogspot.com/2009/01/scvmm08-vlan-id-migration-error.html).

I migrated the DC (Domain Controller), I got an error.
The DC was a lab. ufffffff.
I had to remove the NIC and to put the NIC again.
In a server machine, I dont have fear.
Ufff, To do that in a DC.

I put the NIC in the Hyper-V optiosn.
I run the VM again and the domain lab rus well. But It is a lab.

Can I do the same in the production domain?

Anyone , any hep.

SCVMM 08 VLAN ID migration error

hi

I have 29 VM with Hyper-V.
I am changing some of them with SCVMM08 migrate option.
The source server doest have a trunk.
The target server has a trunk.
If I migrate a VM without Vlan id to another server without vlan id, I dont have any problem. The migrate wizard inside SCVMM07 runs well.
If I migrate a VM withou VLAN ID to another server with VLAN ID, I have a problem.
The VM migrate, but I need to assign the VLAN ID by hand.
Is there any option to do that with SCVMM08?

I dont know. ;-(
