From a cluster starting view, you should be okay, you may want to consider the plan of action if the host doesn't reboot properly and the hosted VMs fail to failover but that is unlikely.

The OP stated that the Hyper-V management services had already stopped as part of the problem so they will not be able to change any of the configuration. If both the DCs VM are shutdown via remote desktop if possible then copying across the HD will be fine, there will be no issue with replication as they will all obey the latest revision. I've had to do this a few times and there were no issues but you have to be careful of ending up with the same machine running on both hosts If you can, rename the VHD to stop it starting. Your best bet is another temporary DC on the other host though, make it outside the cluster on some none shared storage in case the other host suddenly has an issue with the lack of a contactable DC, you will be able to start that DC without clustering started up.

What Hyper-V version are you using ? If it's 2008 R2 it sounds like you are aware of the chicken and the egg situation of clustering with no contactable DC, unless your running 2012 as this is supposed to work better now. If I was you I would make another DC on the other host, even if you remove it later. If you don't then you need to get a copy of the domain controllers VHD and stick it into a new VM on the other machine, I have done this quite a few times now and all you need to do is set the IP address again. Of course the risk you run is having the original DC starting up on the other host.

Yes you can rearrange them while they are one, as ZH says the power conducts through them all.

I've got one of those!

I didn't think the Gentleman Jack or the Single barrel were worth the extra when I tried them. If you like the honey infused ones then my Favourite is seagrams number 7 dark honey but for a real whisky give me Talisker.

I wrote my notes here if you wan't to work through it.

Just do it over 2 days in 2 increments the clients will catch up on boot. Have you not got your server to auto sync anyway ?

You want operations manager and not config manager for monitoring.

I found and answer eventually. With the VNXe systems if you allocate all the disks to one storage pool, it will always be tied to one storage processor, even though it will allow you to specify ISCSI servers to use other storage processors you will not be able to select them during LUN creation.

I'm hoping someone is more familiar with the EMC VNXe 3100 to tell me if this is normal behaviour, I am changing the storage around a bit and creating a new Hyper-V cluster so I have been making a few changes. I originally had one ISCSI server setup that was attached to storage processor B, this is still active. The storage NICs on both SPs are aggregated. I created two new ISCSI servers ISCSIServerA (Storage Processor A) and ISCSIServerB (Storage Processor B) with the intention of spreading the load between the SPs however, when I go to add a new LUN I only ever get a choice of attaching them to the two ISCSI servers that are on SPB and not ISCSIServerA of SPA. So I'm wondering is this normal behaviour or am I missing something ?

I think the YouTube issues are effecting all Cleo at the moment.

Looks like the PF use does not have permissions on the database you need to grant them using whatever db tools you have.

We use Sisra and 4Matrix.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I would thank but you can't in this forum.

I'd go for pretty much anything that will keep me amused for more than 5 minutes.

Okay folks I'm looking for suggestions for some games to play on my Nexus 7 while I'm travelling. They must work without internet access and I don't mind paying for good ones. Cheers ChrisH

Thanks for that info I know what to expect now.

I've got one Took a while to get used to the smaller screen but I don't notice now.

Ouch at the new licensing cost! That's more than I imagined and 3 times more than the last purchase !

If anyone wants to add me I'm fehumm.

Yes look here for locations: MDT 2010 & 2012 Your best using a proper log viewer as well as they usually highlight stuff for you better.
