Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
@Salm
Yes, all those W2k8 R2 VMs are up to date, I'm looking for some kind of offline bundle for IntegrationTools in HyperV just to try re-installing those drivers. This is real pain.
And just for an update, with domain controller W2k8 R2 I have used this workaround:
Stop the "COM+ Event System" service (be careful, it has a few dependencies, such as DHCP Server, so make sure to restart it after).
Restart the "Volume Shadow Copy" service
Start the "COM+ Event System" again (and all it's dependencies).
And the result is that with this workaround AD is not recognized as application integration and therefor you can not restore any Active Directory item (User, Group, GPO...).

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
Really ? I didn't even think to check (bad I know, but to be fair I'm only keeping this 2012 R2 DC to check for the bug correction).lenart.plausteiner wrote:

Edit : Just checked, can confirm that the 2012 R2 DC doesn't appear in the pre-selected VMs list by Veeam in the AD restoration wizard.
However, AD objects restore works when you go get the VM manually (at least I was able to restore a test user, with a mailbox).

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
@Mike
Thanks for your reply. I see KB2919355 (April 2014 update rollup for Server 2012 R2) is installed on both of my 2012 R2 servers. But KB3037623 does not appear as an available update. We have installed optional update KB3063109 (Hyper-V integration components update for Windows virtual machines that are running on Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016-based hosts) on both 2012 R2 servers, does this replace KB3037623?
I rebooted the Hyper-V 2016 host server yesterday afternoon (~14:00 GMT 15th March) and could then successfully run Veeam backups of all four guest servers. I have been repeatedly running backups of the four VMs yesterday, last night and this morning, all working perfectly up until an hour ago (~11:00 GMT 16th March).
When the backup fails with error "Failed to create VM recovery snapshot" I can see that Checkpoint files (avhdx) are created in the Hyper-V Virtual Hard Disks directory for each of the four virtual machines and are not removed. When the backup works we see that checkpoint files are created whilst the Veeam backup runs, they are then removed when the job completes.

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
I wonder if a W2K8 R2 system needs to have the convenience update rollup installed to be considered up to date. This was a "kind of" SP2 and a very late attempt at resolving the issue caused by stopping production of SPs without replacing the system with something that would get bug fixes out of the hotfix stage. Micorosft did do that with Windows 8/Windows Server 2012, but Windows 7/Server 2008 R2 were left in a bad state for a long time. I think it's a good idea to install it, but I had to back it out of the remote desktop servers because there was an issue with roaming profiles. I'm not suggesting it will help with this issue, though if it's not installed it might be worth trying.lenart.plausteiner wrote:Yes, all those W2k8 R2 VMs are up to date...

Good to know Lenart.
But please note that installing this KB won't fix the issue when the VM is a DC (and not running W2K16)

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
So for the TLDR crowd, since I don't have time to read through seven pages of comments, the March 2017 cumulative update still doesn't allow the successful backup of a DC using Veeam B&R 9.5 SP1 on Hyper-V?

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
Thanks. I still need a resolution for this issue, the exchange logs won't truncate until a backup completes successfully, and since it isn't we're seeing a huge blow-out in log sizes, to the point that we are running a local backup just to get them to truncate.Salm wrote:Nope, it doesn't.
We are running this every morning, it might help someone else out:
Code: Select all
(Open Command prompt)
Diskshadow
Add volume F: (drive letter for exchange server location)
Begin Backup
Create
End Backup
(At this step you should notice the events in the application log indicating that the backup was indeed successful and logs will now be deleted)

AlexLeadingEdge,
Does that mean your DC and Exchange are one VM?
And thanks for the script and sharing it with the community!

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
Hi Jed-hyper,
We certainly will post but unfortunately... No fix yet
What I have done in my environment for now (I know, it is just a lab
) is deployed a core 2016 server (minimum config/ resources) and made it a DC. That is being backed up but the 2012 R2 is the one doing the heavy lifting (that one got the resources, roles, DHCP and so on). But at least I have a workable backup of my DC database so I can do item recovery. And in worst case scenario, I can even recover the DC but then I will be without the 2012 R2 (but that is disaster scenario...)
We certainly will post but unfortunately... No fix yet

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
Can I ask how many VM's are running on your hosts and what license you are running? (Standard/ Datacenter).
The reason I ask is that there is sometimes confusion and I have noticed (and helped) a few people already a few times in the last years when they actually had the licenses covered without knowing it.

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
A standard license does not limit you to 2 VMs.
You can have any number of VMs as long as you have individual licenses for those VMs.
2 of those licenses are provided by the standard license you got for your host.

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
Salm is correct
With that license you are allowed to run 2 VMs per host and the Windows OS license is included. The other VMs need to be licensed separately. Depending on the amount of VMs it is sometimes better to license your hosts with the datacenter edition. I can't remember exactly but I thought it was 8 VMs which is the turnaround point when datacenter becomes "cheaper" than licensing your VMs separately

Here's a good overview: http://www.aidanfinn.com/?p=13090
Although with 2016 moving to per-core licensing it might be slightly different.

Re: 9.5 Hyper-V 2016 Known Issues
That's correct i'm only licensed for 2 VM's so i can't install another one legally without purchasing another license which is not an viable option for me to get around this issue.
So i'm left with waiting for Microsoft to fix this issue
There's no progress on getting this Microsoft issue fixed i'm assuming?

I was considering uninstall that patch and re-installing using the guidelines from the post by SALM (microsoft-hyper-v-f25/9-5-hyper-v-known ... ml#p230347 , see below). What do folks think?

My own Exchange runs on 2012 R2 and Exchange 2016 RTM and CU3.
I have confirmed that backups with AAP work for Exchange 2013 and 2016 (latest CU) on Windows Server 2012 R2, provided KB3037623 is installed on the guest OS (this KB updates integration services).
If the KB has not yet been installed, the vss will fail with the following error

The KB is unable to be properly installed if Exchange is already installed (OS will hang on reboot)
The following service must be disabled prior to KB installation
AD Topology.
These services should be set to manual :
Microsoft Exchange Diagnostics
Microsoft Exchange Transport
Microsoft Filtering Management Service
Microsoft Exchange Search Host Controller
The services should be set to Automatic after successful KB installation.
I do not have any information on 2008 R2 Guest OS or previous versions of Exchange.
