But this based on SCVMM Manual. Don't believe everything you read. ;-) OK. But this based on SCVMM Manual. Don’t believe everything you read. ;-)

Have a Hyper-V cluster managing with SCVMM. 2. Put SCVMM in a VM and place the VM on the cluster. 3. Initialize an RDP sessiion to the SCVMM virtual machine and start SCVMM console. 3. Initialize Quick migration from within SCVMM console. Could you tell us what happens? Cheers, Tamás Hi Eric,

Would you try the following?

1. Have a Hyper-V cluster managing with SCVMM.
2. Put SCVMM in a VM and place the VM on the cluster.
3. Initialize an RDP sessiion to the SCVMM virtual machine and start SCVMM console.
3. Initialize Quick migration from within SCVMM console.

Could you tell us what happens?

Cheers,

Tamás

Cross-managed vCenters may be the way to go, at least for larger deployments. Thanks, Rick. Cross-managed vCenters may be the way to go, at least for larger deployments.

I have half of my vmanagement virtualized now, with the other half coming soon. With adequate practice and preparation, I don't think anything of it.
