Apply KB949219 to virtual machines after upgrading to Hyper-V RC0

7 04 2008

After I installed Hyper-V RC0 on the physical host server I than start upgrading vm additions on my Windows Server 2008 virtual machine. I uninstalled the old Integration Services tools from my virtual machine, reboot and than reinstalled the Integrations tools again.

I reboot the virtual machine and checked the network configuration, but no network adapters were shown. I shutdown the machine and added a legacy adapter; now I had network connectivity on my virtual machine, but still I could not figure out why the integration services did not work. I opened Server Manager and checked the Device Manager. As shown below there were three warnings for Microsoft VMBus Video Device, Microsoft VMBUS HDD Miniport and Microsoft VMBus Network Adapter.

I went back to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949219 article and I read I also should apply this update on the virtual machines. I installed KB949219 and reboot and my problems were fixed.
