I have a Hyper-V environment with two servers:
-
Server A: Primary (Main) Hyper-V host
-
Server B: Replica Hyper-V host (using Hyper-V Replica)
SolidCP Portal is installed and configured on Server A, and customers normally use it to manage their virtual machines hosted on A.
Recently, I performed a failover of the VMs from Server A to Server B using Hyper-V Replica. The VMs are now running successfully on Server B.
However, after the failover:
-
SolidCP (running on Server A) cannot control or manage the VMs on Server B
-
Even when I configure Server B as a Replica Server in SolidCP, the portal still cannot perform actions (start, stop, manage) on the failed-over VMs
My questions:
-
Is SolidCP supposed to manage Hyper-V Replica failover scenarios automatically?
-
Does SolidCP require the VMs to exist on the primary host only to remain manageable?
-
Is there a supported way to make SolidCP fully manage VMs after they are failed over to the replica server?
-
Do I need to re-import, re-sync, or reassign the VMs in SolidCP after failover?
Any guidance, best practices, or real-world experience with SolidCP + Hyper-V Replica would be greatly appreciated.
