Symptoms
When attempting to migrate the storage of a virtual machine from one volume to another volume by using the Migrate Storage option in System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2 SP1 (VMM), the storage migration jobs fails at 14% creating the check point with the error below:
Error (2927)
A Hardware Management error has occurred trying to contact server <Host server>.
(Unknown error (0x80338048))
Recommended Action
Check that WinRM is installed and running on server
<Host server>.
For more information use the command "winrm helpmsg hresult".
This can occur if the WinRM setting “MaxEnvelopeSizekb” is mismatched between the System Center Virtual Machine Manager server and the host. By default, the WinRM value is MaxEnvelopeSizekb=150. After installing the VMM agent the MaxEnvelopeSizekb value will change from 150 to 800.
You can verify the values by running the following command on the System Center Virtual Machine Manager server and the Host:
winrm get winrm/config
1. Open an elevated command prompt on System Center Virtual Machine Manager server and on the Host server (i.e. run a CMD prompt using administrator credentials).
2. Run
winrm get winrm/config
on each.
3. Verify that the Winrm Setting “MaxEnvelopeSizekb” value on the System Center Virtual Machine Manager server and on the Host server is 800.
4. If the value is different, set each to a value to 800 with the command below:
winrm set winrm/config @{MaxEnvelopeSizekb="800"}
5. Refresh the Host from the System Center Virtual Machine Manager console
6. Perform the storage migration of the Virtual Machine. At this point it should succeed as expected.
