Hyper-V 2012 Virtual Machine Management Service stops for no apparent reason

-

starting initial testing migration hyper-v 2012 (or referred v3.0?). out of box install of server 2012 data center rtm (full), hyper-v role enabled. day after initial setup. opened hyper-v console remote computer start testing , unable connect hyper-v management service. logging in server directly see hyper-v virtual machine management services has stopped (kudos ms making easy see!). after spending awhile in event log , finding no reason (i see service stop no errors associated it) chalk fluke of previous days initial install. next day same thing. except 2 other services have stopped. more event log research no trail follow. it’s if service being commanded stop?? possible connection see configmgr 2012 client activity near same time frame service stopping.

 

obviously can’t move forward further testing , migration until sort out. sure can set services restart not ideal option.

 

any ideas? or 2012 new consider production? i’ve included couple of event log entries , list of services stopped.

 

thanks, ken

so, appears must using scvmm 2012 sp1 ctp2?  (since see mention of scvmm agent , version work server 2012) - btw scvmm 2012 sp1 ctp not supported production @ time, server 2012 hyper-v is.

also, have config manager pushing hyper-v server?  there might inherant incongruence.

quite honestly, first time have seen mention of folks running config man agent on hyper-v server.  others might more familiar 2 interacting each other.

Change home folder default permission?

-
i have searched on , can't seem find similar trying do. using windows server 2003 active directory. when create new user account on domain, use profile tab specify home directory user. when user logs in first time, active directory creates folder in specified path. working correctly. problem gives user full control on folder. has caused lot of problems because "clever" users have discovered thay can change permission on folder or subfolders beneath it. because don't want staff looking @ "sensitive" files. of course doesn't work since can take ownership of file , give myself permissions. causes trouble failed backups, inability scan these folders viruses, migration new storage etc. on occasion 1 of these users call me , ask file or folder restored, , @ point discover not have backup of files , cannot restore them. give them lecture, have on 2500 users, , can't talk them all. right have create account , login teh folder created, go take away full contr...
