This is more than just moving the 's the entire folder that houses all VM files.I'm interested to see what exactly you did.Microsoft’s new baby in their server family is Windows Server 2008. to the server 2012R2 and import them directly" The next step is to copy all VM files/folders including the VHDs, XML.etc. "turn off the VM on the hyper-v 2008R2 host and stop the VMMS service on the host server as well to unlock all VM files. I've seen numerous posts about not exporting DCs and yet I'm hesitant to simply copy the VHDs over w/out doing anything other than creating a new VM on the 2012 server and pointing to the moved VHD.Īs a related question to you and the group as a whole, wouldn't this method also be the BEST method for moving VMs that have huge VHDs? I have a VM that is my fileshare server with 1TB of drives and it will take FOREVER to export.if it is just as simple as moving the VHDs, create new VM, reset NIC settings.then why all the fuss about exporting VMs?!ĮDIT.forgot to mention I found the following article that states: The question is, could we just not 'cut' and 'paste' the VHD on the new server and just start it there? I mean there shouldn't be any USN issues? All that's happening is the server is being picked up and placed in a different rack in 'physical server just to clarify, what all did you do? I need to move my PDC from my Hyper-V host (2008R2) to my other Hyper-V host (2012) so I can rebuild said Hyper-V 2008R2 to Server 2012R2 and then bring back the PDC to the refreshed Hyper-V host.
I understand we could just build a new domain controller on windows 2012 host server and then just promote it and demote the other however I want to maintain the correct naming convention.Īnother option I figured was to move the roles to the other physical domain controller and demote the original, rebuild the first one again using the same name and move the roles back.Īll of this sounds to complicated and risky since everything is working perfect as it is. The virtual domain controller is running on a windows server 2008r2 hyper v host and we wish to move the virtual domain controller to another hyper v host running windows server 2012. We currently have two domain controllers running windows server 2008 (1 physical and 1 virtual).
