XenServer 7.0 - Virtual server dead.

[RJohnson91]

Morning all,

 

Over the weekend we had a major power cut and it took everything down.

 

All of our servers are virtual and have since come back up, bar one.

 

 

It is stuck on the windows logo and a spinning 'loading' icon, it's been like this for an hour now.

 

I have attempted to force reboot and it simply returns to the above state, this server is our SIMS server so very crucial.

 

I have a disaster recovery restoring now, so in 5 or so hours we will have it back up and running... but I was wondering if there is anything I could try in the mean time?

 

Anything would be good

Backup restored the SIMS server is live.

 

Turns out one of the VHDs had corrupted.

 

Anyone with a similar issue, shut down the VM and remove all VHD's bar the C drive and reboot, this is how I pin pointed the problem.
