Hyper-V domain controller, Bad idea ?


Recommended Posts

Ive got a server core domain controller and a server 08 R2 installation both are only 48 hours old however the media server (vanilla server 08 r2 sp1) has started to lockup every reboot.

When this happens the network icon is constantly updating (aero busy icon) and the hyperv console is blank (when i try to connect to the local server) i get RPC call failed after a long delay.

The only way to resolve this temporally is to disable the NIC and virtual network in the device manager, reboot and enable the devices again upon which everything starts to work again.

DCDiag gives the following

C:\Users\Administrator>dcdiag /q
         There are warning or error events within the last 24 hours after the
         SYSVOL has been shared.  Failing SYSVOL replication problems may cause
         Group Policy problems.

The only other symptom i have is a frequent inability to use the FQDN on remote desktop which suggests DNS issues.

set it to allow dynamic updates within DNS, preferably AD integrated. Restart the netlogon service, run ipconfig /registerdns, the run netdiag /fix. Create this zone only on one DC and point both DCs to it for DNS. Within about fifteen minutes or so it should replicate to both DCs and this error gone

Tried all of the above and rebooted with the same net stall , Just to restate in-case ive made a stupid mistake (this is the first domain ive setup).

i used these commands on the vanilla server core install to setup the new domain

Netdom renamecomputer %computername$% DomainMaster
reboot
netsh int ip set address "Local Area Connection" static 192.168.0.4 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.254
Install DNS Role
start /w ocsetup DNS-Server-Core-Role
dcpromo /unattend:c:\unattend.txt

On the server thats hosting the domain controller (the only physical one) i have a dual port nic

1) 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0/192.168.0.254 (Default gateway) 192.168.0.4 (DNS) 192.168.0.254 (alternative DNS)

2) 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0/192.168.0.254 (Default gateway) 192.168.0.4 (DNS) 192.168.0.254 (alternative DNS)

Im using the domain account ServerAdministrator@mydomain.com (which might be the problem as the domain controller hasn't even started when i reboot now that i think about it) and when i login hyperv cant even start.

    • Couldn't a custom power plan help to park the non x3d ccd's? Then that would solve this latency/performance issues people are having with the x3d chips?
    • So is Ubuntu and Fedora (with GNOME). It's a welcome move and those that need X11 can easily install as pointed out in the article it but that won't stop a loud minority from whining of course. Funny but It will actually be easier to install X11 on Ubuntu then enable Flatpak support/Flathub and use them.
    • End of an era? Kubuntu is removing default support for X11 in new installs by David Uzondu X11, the old window system whose days have long felt numbered, just saw another one of its major supporters head for the exit. Kubuntu has decided to follow its parent distro's lead, making its next release, version 25.10, a Wayland-only affair for fresh installs. It seems many Linux developers see Wayland as the future. Just recently, Linux Mint started working to improve support for the protocol in Cinnamon, tackling lingering issues with keyboard layouts and input methods. You can even see the progress in KDE's development, where an upgrade to Wayland PiP is planned for KDE Plasma 6.5. So what's the logic behind dropping a session that, for the most part, still works? According to Kubuntu's Rik Mills, the team wants to "rip off this sticking plaster" now, in an interim release, rather than ###### off a lot of people by doing it in the next Long-Term Support version, 26.04. The developers feel that maintaining code for the aging X11 system holds back progress on security and new features that Wayland can enable more easily. Plus, supporting two separate display servers is a massive undertaking. Of course, this change might have some people worried, but relax; all is not lost if you still need the old session. If you're running hardware that acts up, like some older NVIDIA cards, or who relies on an ancient application that doesn't play nicely with the XWayland compatibility layer, you can still get your familiar session back. Just enter the following command in your terminal: sudo apt install plasma-session-x11 Once that command finishes, the X11 session will appear as an option on the login screen, so you can carry on as before. As OMGUbuntu notes, not everyone in the Ubuntu family is following its lead just yet. Other official flavors like Xubuntu, Ubuntu Budgie, and Ubuntu Cinnamon are expected to keep offering an X11 session on their default installs for this cycle.
    • Mangohud hasn't been built into "Steam Deck", it has been built into SteamOS. I understand that your goal is to try and praise MS for a simple feature that everyone else has, but we are comparing OS vs OS. Hardware does not have anything "built-in". Software does. Like it or not, SteamOS has it "built-in". And it is far superior to XBOX game bar's information.
