Hyper-V and SCVMM 2008 VM migration to Cluster Shared Volume failed.


i have migrated 3 of hyper-v vm servers, running on windows 2008 host, using scvmm 2008 new windows 2008 data center r2 sp1 server running cluster shared volume no issues.

my 4th migration failed on last 2 steps.

the server being migrated hyper-v vm running windows 2008 enterprise sp2.

the hyper-v host running on windows 2008 enterprise r2 server, no sp1.

the cluster shared volume server migrating windows 2008 data center r2 server running sp1 3 additional hotfixes thought relevent.

i began migration scvvm 2008, completed, errored out last 2 steps. not delete source snapshot, said in use. so not take next step , destroy source vm.

as result have server @ source in saved state. had new virtual @ destination running. , scvvm showed vm on destination  in error condition.

i able revert saved state on souce vm , loaded, shut down right away. have 2 identical vm's in 2 different location both bootable.

i closed apps, logged out of every server was  connected opened scvvm again , ran the  redu on migration scvvm 2008, nothing happened. did undo, nothing happend. did repair, nothing happened.

the environment unstable, deleted vm on cluster shared volume. deleted vm scvvm showing associated destination server displaying error condition.

restore vhd backup, made minutes before migration , square one.

i thought clearing error condition on scvvm 2008 not find way. if have cleared error, thinking delete source folder , files vm moved , left alone on destination server, able run. many indications things unstable decided blow away , bring fresh backup.

that more want next time.

i need on how start things again when migration fails. should able fix whatever causing snapshot being deleted , run migration redu again. best. did  not work me.

any suggestions?
