SolidCP cannot manage VMs after Hyper-V Replica failover

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:

  1. Is SolidCP supposed to manage Hyper-V Replica failover scenarios automatically?

  2. Does SolidCP require the VMs to exist on the primary host only to remain manageable?

  3. Is there a supported way to make SolidCP fully manage VMs after they are failed over to the replica server?

  4. 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.

Hello,

 

Have you installed SolidCP on the Replica server or set it to connect remotly to that server?

 

Normally it should be able to check other servers but you need a provider per server either local or remote mode.

 

Regards,
