| | Hyper-V Missing VMs Hello everyone, I had 20 VMs in a clustered Hyper-V, by mistake I deleted the Virtual machine resource, now the machines are not in the Hyper-V configuration anymore. The files are intact and are in the LUN, but the problem is when I try to import them a get the error: Import failed. Unable to find virtual machine import files under location 'H:\pathtovm'. You can import a virtual machine only if you used Hyper-V to create and export it. Well, I know that the best way is to use the import/export procedure, but in this scenario it was cause by a mistake... Does anyone knows how to get these machines back to Hyper-V console? Thank you |

| | Re: Hyper-V Missing VMs You can only import a machine that was exported. Rather than import, your best solution is to create a new machine (name can be the same) and point to the existing VHD(s). You'll need to recreate your settings for networking, processors, RAM, etc. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "John" <John@newsgroup> wrote in message news:577D0150-6033-4D7F-9492-0D5F87FA5096@newsgroup Quote: > Hello everyone, > > I had 20 VMs in a clustered Hyper-V, by mistake I deleted the Virtual > machine resource, now the machines are not in the Hyper-V configuration > anymore. > > The files are intact and are in the LUN, but the problem is when I try to > import them a get the error: > Import failed.
