Error No File
I have tried to deploy the Azure Local cluster based on Stack HCI, but are currently stuck on the Creating Cluster portion. However the fault it gives is very unclear and says there is a network configuration error however All previous steps where succesfull including setting up networking where I assume it would have failed if it was a networking issue. The name of the cluster would be something else if I where to configure it manually but this name comes from Azure and was validated there. Error: Type 'ConfigCluster' of Role 'Cluster' raised an exception: Check the spelling of the cluster name. Otherwise, there might be a problem with your network. Make sure the cluster nodes are turned on and connected to the network or contact your network administrator. at SetClusterLiveDumpPolicy, C:\NugetStore\Microsoft.AzureStack.Fabric.Storage.SCPSModule.10.2507.1001.1000\content\CloudDeployment\Classes\Cluster\Cluster.psm1: line 898 at ConfigCluster, C:\NugetStore\Microsoft.AzureStack.Fabric.Storage.SCPSModule.10.2507.1001.1000\content\CloudDeployment\Classes\Cluster\Cluster.psm1: line 322 at <ScriptBlock>, C:\CloudDeployment\ECEngine\InvokeInterfaceInternal.psm1: line 163 at Invoke-EceInterfaceInternal, C:\CloudDeployment\ECEngine\InvokeInterfaceInternal.psm1: line 158 at <ScriptBlock>, <No file>: line 50Compute_Management Intent duplicates and causes workloads to loose connectivity
Hi. I have a situation where we are running a 2-noded Azure Local 23H2 with the latest april 2025 updates installed. We have 2 Intents: Compute_management and storage. On one of the nodes (and only on this node, the other node works fine), Network ATC sometimes duplicates the compute_management intent and creates a new VMSwitch. The old VMSwitch is still present and changes to Internal mode. The new VMSwitch is external but without the NIC attached. The issue happens always after node reboot and also if we live migrate any workload to the affected node. In Azure on the network intent we see the error: physical network adapter not found Both servers are running identitcal hardware (Lenovo SR650) and the NIC for compute_management is Intel X722-T2 1Gb 2port We are working with Microsoft support to find a solution but so far Microsoft have only collected logs and we are waiting for response. I hope that someone here in the community have an idea for a solution.
AVD on Azure Local: Increase memory of Sessionhosts after Hostpool deployment
Hi there, Is there a best practice for increasing the RAM of the session hosts in an Azure Virtual Desktop host pool? We are using the autoscaler to start and stop VMs on demand. Since this is an automated process, all the settings changed via HyperV-Manager get overwritten, presumably by the host pool template. Can someone confirm that I am on the right track and maybe give me a hint or a how-to on how to change the RAM for my session hosts? Hostpool Type: Pooled Uses Session Host Config: No Thanks in Advance, Maik

Azure Stack HCI 23h2 upgrade & Azure local Resource
Good evening, After upgrading from 22H2 to 23H2, we encountered an issue where the Azure Local resource in the Azure portal appears as "not connected recently." Additionally, we are not seeing the "Your cluster can be upgraded to the latest version" option, likely due to this connection issue. Despite successful connectivity tests and extensive troubleshooting, the resource remains unsynchronised with Azure. As a result, we tried deleting the Azure Local resource and re-registering the nodes. Now, while both nodes are successfully registered and connected to Azure and passing the Invoke-AzStackHciUpgradeValidation , we are unable to find a way to re-register the Azure Local resource to proceed with the "Install the solution upgrade via Azure portal" step. The only option I see is going through the "Deploy Azure Local" process in Azure Arc. However, I believe this would overwrite existing settings and VMs, causing significant disruption—especially since this is a production cluster upgraded from 22H2. Is there a way to re-register the cluster and restore the Azure Local resource using existing settings, so we can proceed with deploying the rest of the solution upgrade via the Azure portal? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated
SMB Bandwidth Limit for VM Live Migration Category.
Hi All, PART 1: Need help to understand the Math or how to calculate the VM Live Migration -SMB Bandwidth Limit? My Environment Details: Considering RDMA capable - Dual NICs of 25GBPS Network model of disaggregated, with Storage VLAN1 and Storage VLAN 2 for storage traffic. (No Teaming for Storage adapters). Considering the above Hardware specs what should be the VM Live migration -bandwidth be? I have seen this article Optimizing Hyper-V Live Migrations on an Hyperconverged Infrastructure | Microsoft Community Hub. However, it says a limit of 750mbps. I understand that this is for 10gbps Dual NICs. (Manual Set values and no using Overrides via Network ATC). If there is a similar optimized value for 25gbps NICS, what is the optimized value and how is it calculated? I see the below table in Microsoft Docs but understand that this is for Converged Model and not for disaggregated. Is there any resources like this for Disaggregated Network Design? Part 2: We have tried to do this via Global overrides to maintain a symmetry across the Cluster. We have used $Globaloverride.SMBVMlivemigrationlimit in GB. (We did Test out 4, 5,5 GB values) We cannot add in Decimal values like 3.25 or 3.5 GB here. It's taking only whole numbers. How do we tackle this? Is this Ideal way to doing it or any better procedure exists without the hassle of manually doing it on all Nodes and ATC Them defaulting it to its own values? And when we do a clean 23H2 Installation Cloud Based, we see the below value: How is this calculated? Part 3: Is validate-dcb a Valid procedure to validate the 23H2 Clusters? If Yes, are there any guidelines to tweak the tests in DCB validate Module to suit our requirements? As per the code, can see that the VM Speed is set to 10gig and I have 25gig NIC cards? Any Knowledge articles that can help with this or any update from Microsoft on validating the 23H2 Clusters? Sorry for making the Post very long but have been fighting demons of questions related to the above topics in my mind. Any help is greatly Appreciated. Thanks in advance.Azure Stack HCI - adding NIC to Network ATC Intent
Hello fellow Azure Stack HCI Admins, I currently have a compute_management Intent for my two node switchless cluster with only one pNIC per node (port1) assigned. I now want to add port2 of each node to the intent for redundancy. (See image) I found this command-set on learn: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure-stack/hci/manage/manage-network-atc?tabs=21H2&pivots=azure-stack-hci Get-NetIntentStatus -ClusterName <YourClusterName> Update-NetIntentAdapter -IntentName <YourIntentName> -AdapterName pNIC2 Get-NetIntentStatus -ClusterName <YourClusterName> Is that the correct command set to archive that? Or is there another way to do so? I am a bit anxious on running those commands because I already have workloads deployed on that cluster and I don't want to break it. Thanks in advance! :) PS: I chose only one NIC per node because at the time of deployment I only had one ToR switch available.
