Windows Server 2012 R2 on ESXi 5.1.0?

• Windows Server 2012 slow on ESXi 5.1U1

  Dear jury,

  recently, I installed four Windows Server 2012-VMs on my ESXi. It's a HP DL380G7 (Controller-P410i HP Xeon E5645, 144 GB of RAM, with 8 HP - SAS 500 GB in RAID6).

  All four virtual machines have a very poor performance, SMB video speed, slow slow.

  I have a server 2008R2-Windows on the same host, which are very good. If I copy a file (for example an ISO) of my client to the server, I have about 80 MB/s. If I do the same in one of my 2012 server, I get about 20 MB/s or less. Sometimes the process cancels (destination network not found)... Still the same thing if I copy between virtual machines. When the copy of CPU consumption amounts to 70%, sometimes at 100%, the server is not usable this time.

  What I've done and tested:

  * 2012 Server installed by the standard ISO (MS Action Pack-download)

  * fact update ESXi 5.1 to 5.1U1 and updated on all virtual machines VMWare tools

  * change to VMXNET3 E1000E network card

  * disabled SMB signing

  * changed SVGA drivers for MS-display Standard driver (3D acceleration is grayed out in the VM options!)

  * Settings IP of all virtual machines are ok (DHCP)

  All the 2008R2 works well, all 2012 are very slow...

  What can I check or what I got wrong?

  TIA and greetings from the Germany

  Matthias.

  It's weird,

  As I did the day 1 for my ESXi5.1 update I upated the VMWare tools on all virtual machines as well. Every server 2008R2 did a restart and they are always very good. 2012 servers did not reboot after update the VMWare Tools. Today, I did a restart of all my servers from 2012 and voila, 3 out of 4 are very good. Running quite smooth with 80 to 100 Mbps SMB-Performance! GREAT!

  Just a virtual machine is too slow I started... But this one I will get in shape too, I think that...

  Display 3D even drivers are fine now.

  Best regards

  HOW a software which runs in VM1 CAN plant the hypervisor?

  shouldn't the only accident VM?

  Anyway, how can I config a VM to resemble a normal pc, so doesn't affect only not the hypervisor?

  Anyone who installed on ESXI 5.5 xenDesktop please post how you did and what config you use?

• Suspension of consistent application on Windows Server 2012 invited with U2 ESXi 5.0

  We lack ESXi 5.0 U2 (build 1254542) and we are going to have problems making consistent application paused on our virtual machines that are running Windows Server 2012.

  We use Acronis vmProtect, and he throws warnings on our VMS in 2012 on the SQL Writer is not not available.  I contacted the Acronis support and they said that it is a problem with the suspension of consistent application.

  When I take a snapshot of a VM 2012 (verification of the ability to perform a capture instant consistent application) capture instant full fine without errors or warnings.  But when I look at the vss_manifests zip file that is created, there is only a single file (backup.xml) with a single line.

  When I take a snapshot of the suspended application on our virtual machines that are running server 2008, the vss_manifests zip file also contains files for each of the VSS writers.

  I checked the disc. EnableUUID is set to true (the virtual machines created on ESXi 5.0 U2 with Virtual Machine Version 8).  I have even manually it specified.

  I checked that the virtual machines use only SCSI disks (there is only 1 disc) and is not a GPT disk or dynamic within the guest OS.  It is a thin disc put into service, if that matters.

  I checked VMWare Tools is installed on the client, and I tried to reinstall it.

  Is there something else I should look for consistent suspension with applications working on Windows Server 2012?

  What do I need to run ESXi 5.1 for this to work?  (Or could I just install the latest version of VMWare Tools manually?)

  If I have to run ESXi 5.1, 5.0 to 5.1 ESXi licenses are worth?  (We have the 5 Essentials license Server vCenter).

  If I have to run ESXi 5.1, must I also improve our vCenter Server installation of 5 to 5.1?

  Thank you

  We've finally updated to 5.5 and everything seems to work fine now.

• Windows Server 2012 GUI + ESXi 5

  Hello

  Has anyone having problems installing gui Windows Server 2012 under ESXi 5 version?  Whenever I try to install the operating system, after it restarts the machine of the adaptation of the files from the disk, it sits on a loading screen without end (the blue windows icon with a circle of white dots).  I tried redownloading my ISO from Microsoft Licensing Panel twice, recreating the virtual machine from scratch, but I get the same result every time.

  Someone has some ideas on things to try to get the operating system invited to install?

  
  Thank you!

  Are you patch 4 for ESXi 5? See http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2006859 for some good info.

• Windows Server 2012 R2 BSOD 0x0000013c

  Hello

  I have some problems with one of my files Windows 2012 R2 servers. Each week the server crashes with a BSOD INVALID_IO_BOOST_STATE (code: 0x0000013c). Some research told me it should be a pilot with a memory leak.

  Client: Windows Server 2012 R2 update, 10, LSI Logic/Paravirtual storage controller hardware version (tried both), NIC vmxnet3

  Host: HP Proliant DL380G7 and G8, ESXi 5.5 Update 1 and 2

  3 other files with the same configuration servers have no problem, they are all from the same model.

  Like I don't know what else to do, you have any suggestions how to fix?

  Thanks in advance!

  Oh wow, haven't seen it for a long time.

  as for my analysis, it seems that your security software Trend Micro goes haywire in your system. Your OS crash caused by OVERLAPPED_MODULE: address regions of overlap 'TmXPFlt' and 'TMEBC64.sys'. Where 'TMEBC64.sys' belongs to 'Start clean boot Driver' Trend Micro and the TmXPFlt seems to have some sort of basis for security suite library. The threading button somehow an invalid memory, the operating system enters a kernel panic. I suggest another solution of security or patch up to the latest version available - application and operating system.

  Roland, can you send us your landfills so we can take a look at as well?

• Implement the deployment of Machine virtual Windows Server 2012 with a data Bit Locker encryption?

  Hi all

  Is it possible to implement the feature data Bit Locker encryption on my Virtual Machine to Windows Server 2012 Std on the Platform VMware ESXi 5.1 vSphere update 1 ?

  The hypervisor is currently running on servers HP Blade BL 460 c G8 . Read well the hardware specification: http://h18001.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/14208_na/14208_na.pdf I see that he has taken a TPM installed on the blade, but I don't know how to make sure that it is activated or used by the Virtual Machine?

  Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance

  I had a few goes at it and it's not like you can virtualize a TPM. It would make sense if it was the case - the secure TPM was not designed to manage multiple instances of the OS.

  I ended up making USB passthrough on a USB stick and have the Bitlocker key stored on this stick as a demo. Certainly not a transaction supported, but it showed that the storage of key seems to be the only issue.

• Windows Server 2012 with EFI fails to start after reset of HA

  The purpose of this thread:
  1. a solution, if anyone else has this problem.
  2. If someone has a better knowledge of why this happens or how avoid feel free to explain it please.

  The scenario:

  I was a new analysis a HBA via the Web Client (something I've done many times before in the non-Web client without any problem...) and loses connectivity to the ESXi host. No response from the ESXi at all and I've noticed a GROUP... That's fine for now...

  The biggest problem is that the VM on the failed host installs via HA to my other ESXi in the cluster, each of them has started normally except my 2012 server s. Just the Automatic Startup Repair Wizard has started, and I couldn't do much from there... I tried a few things auto repair, but they could not fill...

  So, I entered the command line tools and ran from diskpart. Discs not presented at all. That's where he hit that I use PVSCSI drivers for my 2012 s server so I was trying to understand how I could inject the command line, but I tried something else first...
  I started the virtual machine on the ISO 2012 server. Tried the option repair, no OS not found to fix, so I chose a new installation and loaded drivers PVSCSI pvscsi-floppy, interrupted the installation and tried the repair option again. He said something like "Continue to start Windows Server 2012" and viola! The VM rebooted successfully and started successfully in the operating system.

  All 3 2012 Server virtual machines on failure that esxi is affected. No Server 2008 or linux where affected machines but they do not use the pilot PVSCSI.

  
  Anyone has a solution alter or maybe an explanation why this happened? This will happen if HA into action on my server 2012 s?

  Is it possible to test or confirm without killing an ESXi host?

  I am running vSphere 5.5 and I don't think that I had this problem with 5.0 or 5.1, but I'm not 100% sure that cause I don't remember no matter which GROUP or another that are running older versions of the failure.

  Hardware version is 9, EFI boot.

  Thank you!

  Finally, I solved this... Looks like a mistake to the EFI initialization after reset of a HA. I know EFI is not supported by FT but I'm only using HA I can't find anywhere that it says that it should not work.

  This is how I fixed the corrupt WS2012 boots:

  1 boot WS2012 ISO, select new installation, load drivers PVSCSI, interrupt installation and choose repair. (Only needed if PVSCI-pilot helps you bootdisk)
  2. choose Help and then command Promt
  3. Run diskpart
  flight type list
  Locate the number of the partition-small FAT32 EFI, in my case nr 3
  Salt type flight 3

  type assign

  flight type list

  Choose the letter assigned, in my case E:
  Type exit

  4 cd /d e:\efi\microsoft\boot

  5 ren BCD BCD.bak

  6 bcdboot c:\windows/l en-us/s E: /f ALL

  7 bootrec /fixmbr

  Bootrec /fixboot

  Bootrec /scanos

  Bootrec /rebuildbcd

  Don't know if all these are necessary... However, it works. Note that the scanos and rebuildbcd show 0 found BONES.

  8 exit the command prompt and click on "Continue starting the server 2012" after that recharge should work properly again.

• Problema al add UN nodo adicional al Cluster Windows Server 2012 con VMware Workstation 9 en

  Hola Buenas,

  Ante todo decir este are a Québec fallo he revisado y las responses in different los don't post han well para help me, good os.

  El caso are that I have 2 servers DELL PowerEdge R420 fisicos identicos, cada uno con ellos 3 VMs sober instaladas VMware Workstation 9. The first virtual machine are an image of Kerio control, a second virtual machine to Windows Server 2012 con dominio Controladora, is the third VM con WS2012're donde quiero crear el cluster con dominio usuario. ESTOS servidores knew vez esta una cabina data via iSCSI connected.

  Add tambien when performed the tests of validation led Cluster, todo lo tengo OK. El caso are so creo el cluster con el Nodo 1 y 2 Nodo (sugar Québec cada uno fisica Máquina distinta ellos y bajo mismo Dominio) me error UN da has the el crear hora cluster. In cambio, if creo el Cluster con este nodos if any to crea, pero el fallo viene a hora of connect UN nodo adicional (ya sea o 1 Nodo Nodo 2). Este fallo viene cuando el nodo TR checks are completely funcional in el Cluster, is is "pensando" y da fallo por tiempo sold.

  He revisado problemas similar y he visto that el antivirus can be una causa e caso no lo're are only aun no he wont any AV... There comprobado red devices (utilizamos 4, 2 iSCSI, 1 red LAN y otra heart rate), he desactivado los red el protocolo IPv6 devices, he probado connect los nodos con el Kerio Offline, el desactivado firewall of Windows, exportar components del registro TCPIP6, capture las conexiones iSCSI...

  El cluster is as en Máquinas Office instalacion del WS2012 y is ha hecho manera person, no mediante VMWare del injerto.

  Una nueva prueba as hoy he ha hecho sido realize el cluster 2 maquinas office in una misma Máquina física y to ha s con exito, pero cuando intento realize el 2 nodos cluster (2 machines virtual cada una fisica diferente Máquinas) cuando me da el error. Esto deduzco raiz Quebec are a VMware o red, no lo o problema se, he probado use tan solo 1 switch (infrastructure utilizaria 2), changing IPs, pero igual sigo as can be? contacts? Alguna especifica VMware config?

  El caso're llevo several days ago that don't con este problema y no se a what can deber, agradeceria muchisimo the the comunidad ayuda.

  MUCHAS Gracias

  Buenas

  Between 2 workstation are posible realize ese tipo configs of forma limpia.

  El problema're (sniffer lo of UN pones veras TR), Los nodos assume ip-spoofing y arp spoofing cuando salen por tarjeta of Red led host.

  Para hacer eso as pides, deberias workstation pasar an esxi.

• FT-record/replay feature is not supported by this virtual machine Windows Server 2012

  Recently I came across a bug when I created a virtual machine with the latest versions of 5.1.0 - ESXi 838463, Client ver 5.1.0 - 860230, vCenter ver 5.1.0 - 880146.  If you create a virtual machine on a Server Windows 2012 farm for some reason any recording/playback is disabled and you cannot implement fault tolerance mode.  I found a good solution.  You delete the virtual machine to inventory, and then re-create the virtual machine as a Windows 2008 R2 server and use the virtual machine that you deleted from the original disc of the inventory rather than create a new one.  Then turn on FT.  Then, go into the settings and change the operating system to Windows Server 2012.   Fixed a problem.  If all goes well they will fix this soon.

  Jimmy S.

  Default adapter for windows 2012 is E1000E, which is not supported for RecordReplay FT.  If this is the case can you please try with another network card and see if it helps.

  If this is not the case, can you please upload vm-support bundle or file a support ticket.

  Thank you

• ProBook 6560 b: wireless network drivers - R2 Windows Server 2012

  Would like to know if one got successfully installed Windows server 2012 R2 drivers. I try to install the drivers wireless for two days now and could not get their work. Any help would be really appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello:

  I don't work for or represent HP.

  All I can advise is that HP offers no support or drivers for all windows server operating systems for any mobile business or consumer they ever made.

  With this track record, I doubt very much they will be.

  In addition, it would be Intel to release Windows Server drivers for their wireless cards, not HP.

  I've never seen a card driver wireless for windows server on the Intel Web site.

  Normally the equivalent standard windows drivers work on Windows server most of the time.

  For example: If you had installed Windows Server 2008 R2 on your laptop, wireless Intel W7 driver probably would work.

  But since there is no equivalent W10 driver for the wireless card model that your laptop is, I have a feeling that is the reason why the wireless card does not work.

  You may laugh with some of the advanced settings for the card under the Advanced tab in Device Manager to see if you can get the card to work.

  Enable WMM for example.

  Now... where can I find the drivers?

  * display driver *-lets start with the display driver (for the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD) when I look for the display driver in the support forum I only find the driver of Intel for Windows 7, but there is none yet for Windows 8? -Installed Windows 7 driver - works ok :)

  Fact is that Toshiba offers all drivers for supported operating systems.

• Satellite P850 - 31 M - invalid key, the installation of Windows Server 2012

  Hello

  I don't know about or write about me, that it moves if necessary.
  So here's my problem.

  I just bought a laptop with the windows installation 8, but I want to install Windows Server 2012.
  I boot on my dvd, everything's fine, and then I click on install and then he told me that the key was invalid.
  But I do not enter a key.

  When I reinstall windows 8 I give no key and it did not in the property and after he told me that windows is activated.

  I don't understand the key or it will scan?
  I have how little he turns to me key?

  Thanks in advance

  Sorry, but I m confused.

  If you have purchased the license Windows Server 2012, then you have also a serial key.
  You must use this key for activation.

  Victory 8 regarding:
  I guess Win 8 was preinstalled.
  In this case, you will need to create a recovery disk before you install another system?
  You don't have any disk Win 8 because there was a possibility to create a recovery disk and the recovery disk contains a 8 win which is enabled.
