Hi All,
I installed system center vmm 2016 on a server with WIndows Server 2016 but when i try to add Hyper V service with provider: Hyper V Provider For Private Cloud i get error connecting to MS Hyper V virtual machine management provider i get error in solidcp:
Unable to connect to Hyper-V server
Possible reasons:

  1. You are going to manage remote Hyper-V server (either Server Core or Hyper-V Server 2008 machine) where SolidCP Server is not installed. Type the correct server name at the top of this form and then click "Connect" button.
  2. SolidCP Server has insufficient permissions to connect remote Hyper-V server. Please refer administrator guide for client and server setup instructions.
  3. Lost connectivity with SolidCP Server installed on Hyper-V virtualization server. Check connectivity and open service properties page once again.

Could you please tell me what could be wrong?

Hello,

HyperVForPC is designed for SCVMM 2008R2. We do not currently have a version for VMM2016.

You will be best to use the HyperV provider at the moment.

Kind Regards,

Trevor Robinson

Thank you for your answer Trevor!
I am using Hyper V provider but  we need some kind of failover setup and even without failover  we sometimes move VM between hosts and then Solidcp lose connection with them - very often some VM need a lot of cpu of ssd space and the host is full then we move them. I guess there is not much interest in Hyper V for private cloud and it will not be updated?
