P4000 VSA - Hyper-V - move

Patrick Neuner — Mon, 26 May 2014 12:13:47 GMT

Hello,

last time we moved a LH node from one Hyper-V Node to another it dropped out of the Management Group.

Anyone got some experience if moving LH Nodes from one Hyper-V Node to another always give such troubles?

Thank you

Andreas Schnederle-Wagner

shut it down first and then make sure that the MAC accress for the NIC is identical after it moves. The default setting for hyper-v doesn't set this as static so moving it often will cause it to change and that will screw up things with the management group.

alright - after changing the MAC back to "original one" it works again with no problems ... Thank you! ;-)

Are the hyper-v nodes clustered? It shouldnt change the MAC on a migation normally... the MAC should come with the VM...

actually it was from a clustered to a non clustered hyper-v, thus it might have changed the MAC. We set the MAC now static, so it shouldn't happen again, in case we have to move it again in the future.

Thanks
