Posted in Virtual Machine Manager, Windows Powershell | No Comment | 11,058 views | 14/04/2009 22:58

You can’t find this any other website because I wrote it :) Please leave a comment if it works for you.

Add-PSSnapin -name Microsoft.SystemCenter.VirtualMachineManager
Get-Vmmserver localhost
# VM Status Script - Yusuf Ozturk
# http://www.yusufozturk.info
$VMProp = Get-VM | Select-Object -Property Name,Status
foreach ($i in $VMProp)
{
$VMName = $i.Name
$VMStatus = $i.Status
$contentStatus = '        <status>' + $VMStatus + '</status>'
clear-content -path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008\wwwroot\Status\$VMName.xml"
add-content -path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008\wwwroot\Status\$VMName.xml" -value '<?xml version="1.0"?>'
add-content -path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008\wwwroot\Status\$VMName.xml" -value '<serverSettings>'
add-content -path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008\wwwroot\Status\$VMName.xml" -value $contentStatus
add-content -path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008\wwwroot\Status\$VMName.xml" -value '</serverSettings>'
}

You could run this as cronjob. You can see status in http://scvmm.domain.com/status/$vmname.xml.

SCVMM 2008 – Missing ISO Warning (2903)

Posted in Virtual Machine Manager | 1 Comment | 7,805 views | 13/04/2009 10:59

You may get this warning on SCVMM panel. Sometimes that can cause to stop your virtual machine:

Warning (2903)
VMM could not locate the specified file C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\web.iso on the hyperv03.contoso.fabrikam.com server. This file might be required as part of another object.
(The system cannot find the file specified (0x80070002))

Recommended Action
Ensure that you have specified a valid path parameter, and that all necessary files are present. Try the operation again.

You have to go Hyper-V management console and edit virtual machine settings. If you disable iso file from ide devices, that warning will be fixed.

SCVMM 2008 – Change Owner Error (11427)

Posted in Virtual Machine Manager | No Comment | 5,023 views | 12/04/2009 18:24

When changing owner of a virtual machine, you can get this error from SCVMM:

Error (11427)
The ownership for this virtual machine cannot be changed because the new owner is not a member of a user role that has access to this virtual machine.

Recommended Action
Either change the new owner to a user who has access to this virtual machine, or contact your Virtual Machine Manager administrator to request access for the user you want to own this virtual machine and then try the operation again.

Solution is simple. You have to create an user role for your user account. You can find “User Role” tab in Administration.

Probably, you have same vm name in your host groups.

Error (802)
The VM file SERVER20 is already in use by another VM.

Recommended Action
Wait for the object to become available, and then try the operation again.

Solution? Give another name to your new virtaul machine..

Hyper-V sunucusunu farklı bir Active Directory’e sokmak

Posted in Virtual Machine Manager, Windows Server | No Comment | 2,642 views | 12/04/2009 16:07

Hyper-v sunucusunu farklı bir active directory’e sokmanız halinde, user SID’leri değişeceği için Hyper-v sunucularını yönetememe gibi bir sorunla karşılaşabilirsiniz. Bu nedenle makinaların XML’lerine girerek,

olan yerlerdeki SID numaralarını değiştirmeniz gerekiyor. Yeni SID’lerin ne olduğunu bilmiyorsanız, yeni bir virtual machine yaratarak, yeni XML’den SID çekebilirsiniz. Kolay gelsin.

Install all IIS7 components with Servermanagercmd

Posted in Hosting & IIS7, Windows Server | No Comment | 3,197 views | 12/04/2009 15:58

You can install all iis7 components with Servermanagercmd command on command prompt.

1	ServerManagerCmd -install Web-Server -a

Also you can use other way, pkgmgr:

start /w pkgmgr /iu:IIS-WebServerRole;IIS-WebServer;IIS-CommonHttpFeatures;IIS-StaticContent;IIS-DefaultDocument;IIS-DirectoryBrowsing;IIS-HttpErrors;IIS-HttpRedirect;IIS-ApplicationDevelopment;IIS-ASPNET;IIS-NetFxExtensibility;IIS-ASP;IIS-CGI;IIS-ISAPIExtensions;IIS-ISAPIFilter;IIS-ServerSideIncludes;IIS-HealthAndDiagnostics;IIS-HttpLogging;IIS-LoggingLibraries;IIS-RequestMonitor;IIS-HttpTracing;IIS-CustomLogging;IIS-ODBCLogging;IIS-Security;IIS-BasicAuthentication;IIS-WindowsAuthentication;IIS-DigestAuthentication;IIS-ClientCertificateMappingAuthentication;IIS-IISCertificateMappingAuthentication;IIS-URLAuthorization;IIS-RequestFiltering;IIS-IPSecurity;IIS-Performance;IIS-HttpCompressionStatic;IIS-HttpCompressionDynamic;IIS-WebServerManagementTools;IIS-WebServerManagementTools;IIS-ManagementConsole;IIS-ManagementScriptingTools;IIS-ManagementService;IIS-IIS6ManagementCompatibility;IIS-Metabase;IIS-WMICompatibility;IIS-LegacyScripts;IIS-LegacySnapIn;IIS-FTPPublishingService;IIS-FTPServer;IIS-FTPManagement;WAS-WindowsActivationService;WAS-ProcessModel;WAS-NetFxEnvironment;WAS-ConfigurationAPI

Choosing Servermanagercmd is a clever choise, i think.

How to parse CIDR on Powershell

Posted in Windows Powershell, Windows Server | No Comment | 8,015 views | 10/04/2009 19:25

You can parse CIDR on Powershell with this script:

$IPAddress = “192.168.1.1/24”
$address = ($IpAddress.split("/")[0])
$cidr = ([int]($IpAddress.split("/")[1]))
$netid = [System.Net.IPAddress]("$address");
$bits = $netid.GetAddressBytes()
$ip1=$bits[0]
$ip2=$bits[1]
$ip3=$bits[2]
$ip4=$bits[3]+1
$Gateway = $address
$IPAddress1 = "$ip1.$ip2.$ip3.$ip4"
write-Output $Gateway
write-Output $IPAddress1

You can use if/else statement for $cidr.
