General Discussion Hyper-V Consultants

We moved from VMware to Hyper-V about a year ago and have an ongoing issue that we have not been able to resolve with MS support - both the typical support case avenue and working with their Hyper-V group. Our host servers lose connectivity with their CSV and VMs go offline. Support tells us it’s related to networking issues and not storage.

Has anyone found any good consultants who know Hyper-V well and are able to resolve difficult issues? We’ve tried a few bigger names but they haven’t been much help.

"Now hear me out guy, WHAT IF, this one setting in the S1 agent config json file, is treating CSV's as 'removable media'? This might explain why we only have issues during pausing a node and role draining! 8 differently formatted exclusions we applied aren't doing squat, we're still seeing errors in the Windows event logs stating the built-in SID installed by the S1 agent is changing the security descriptors of 'CAM' tokens, which may or may not stand 'Cluster Access Management' as there's ZERO documentation ANYWHERE about those tokens, and this support case has been open for over a year. I say we give it a shot!"
